Best Technology Improvements for Classic Cars
Posted by admin at 27 April 2018, at 23 : 13 PM
If you have an old car or a classic vehicle, you might not want to part from them for a while. The two of you simply grew together. To bring your car into the 21st century, you can get some aftermarket upgrades that will improve your comfort level, driving experience, and connectivity. From sound systems equalling the latest models to driver assistance, you can get everything you are missing from your existing car, without having to shop for a new model. Find out more below.
DAB Radio
If you would like to enjoy your favorite radio stations or podcasts in an exceptional quality while driving, you could get an aftermarket DAB radio installed in place of your old stereo system. Your signal will be more reliable, and you can choose from thousands of quality channels. You might get an adaptor or an simple device that fits in your dashboard with built in WiFi, and even a remote controlled model.
Satellite Navigation
One of the best developments in the driving industry is the ability to get help finding our way around. Older cars don’t have this technology, but this doesn’t mean you can’t get it. While using your phone wedged into the dashboard can work, you might want a professional system installed that is a part of your technology dashboard. You should talk to an Auto Repair expert to compare the different models. Some of them will have a touch screen or even an infotainment system and Bluetooth built in.
Backup Camera
The last thing you want to do when driving a classic car is getting it damaged when reversing into a tight parking space. The good news is that you can get a backup camera installed in any car, provided that you find a heads-up camera that fits your interior. This improvement can really help you give your vehicle a 21st century feel, while you can still enjoy the classic shapes and design.
Cassette to Bluetooth or MP3 Adapter
You don’t necessarily need to get rid of your old audio system; there are some cost-effective ways of making it work with the latest technology. You can buy an adapter that turns your traditional cassette player into a connected MP3 or Bluetooth player. Plug in your phone and stream your music, or simply connect to the system and you can listen to your recordings on your traditional car audio.
Massage Chairs
One of the problems drivers have with older cars is the comfort level of the seats. Ergonomic design didn’t appear until the 90s, and you might feel uncomfortable behind the wheel when driving long distances. Getting aftermarket -way folding chairs or even a massage chair, a ventilated or heated one will help you make the most out of your driving experience in every season.
Whether you are looking to improve your driving experience or comfort level without having to say goodbye to your classic car, you can find the right aftermarket improvements that will help you enjoy the latest safety and driver assistance features today’s vehicles offer.
