A Backup Camera or Dash Cam
Parallel parking and pulling out of parking spots can be frustrating and difficult, but a backup camera makes these once annoying tasks simple and easy! Install a backup camera in the rear of your vehicle and then install a monitor in your dashboard, and every time you flip your car into reverse, the image from the camera feed will show up on your dashboard. That way you can safely pull out of a spot without putting your car or others at risk. Best of all, backup cameras are very affordable and you can get one installed in no time.
Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are two similar tools that allow you to mirror your smartphone screen onto the dashboard of your car. This allows you to easily access and use your very favorite apps while driving while still keeping your eyes on the road. Send text messages using voice commands, stream music from Pandora, Spotify, or Apple Music, get GPS Driving Directions, make phone calls, and more using this impressive technology.
A Car Security System
Older cars are often the target of thieves, as they draw less attention than sparkling new cars and are less likely to have a working security system. Keep your car safe from theft with a cutting-edge car security system. Not only does a car security system keep your car safe from theft and deter criminals, but most systems offer a number of exciting features and functionality. Some car theft prevention systems offer remote start capability, which allows you to start your car from up to 100 yards away. This can prove handy on a particularly hot or cold day, allowing you to fire up the air conditioning or heat. Some also feature a GPS tracker, proximity sensors, and smartphone app compatibility.
A Mobile Hotspot
Turn your car into a mobile computer, allowing you to get quick and easy internet access on the fly with a mobile hotspot. A mobile hotspot can be placed in your car, allowing you to connect your smartphone to it in order to get WiFi connection while driving. This will allow you to get mobile driving directions and stream music with ease without compromising your data plan on your phone.
