They’re still listed in telephone books as car audio outlets but today they offer a lot more than just sound systems.
Hands free kits with all sorts of security equipment now fills their pages. Cameras, reversing sensors and a complete overhaul of a speaker system can all be bought and fitted.
Most cars with factory fitted sound systems can be replaced and therefore greatly improved. Apart from luxury cars the average more modest car has a sound system that is at best, acceptable.
But if you like quality and spend a lot of time in the car then there is much you can do to improve. In order to make the most of this you need to remove the factory header unit. Replace with a double DIN 7” touch screen DVD player with inbuilt Bluetooth Satnav USB Aux stereo and then look at a bigger amp.
Take those inadequate speakers out and fit a sub-woofer and other quality speakers to make the most of the improved output.
Good car audio shops offer a fitting service not just for new sound systems but all sorts of security devices including trackers and cameras. And don’t forget the importance of a tracking device on motorbikes as well as high value bicycles.
For high value vehicles there is no end of new security and anti-theft controls. Locating a stolen car has to be done as soon as possible as many very expensive cars are stolen to order for parts. And this is the reason that a tracker should be skilfully hidden and certainly not too visible.
After our home, we spend a great deal on a car and it’s essential to make it as secure as possible. Some insurers will also offer a small discount when a driver goes to extremes to protect his vehicle.
If you do upgrade the sound system in your car, don’t forget that it’s advisable to do something about the insulation. Dampening boot, hood and floor as well as side panels can help keep the music in and the road noise out.
