Sometimes it is hard to say goodbye to the car that served you so well for many years. You get used to its tricks and different modes, and you only want to improve some small things.

You might be already used to reversing your car into tight spaces, but it is always great to have a second opinion, and some help. If you add a backup camera, you will feel more confident when maneuvering around corners or trying to turn around in tight spaces. If you are the one who usually does the school run, you will certainly benefit from a second pair of eye and a full view of your blind spots.

1. LED Lights

In case you drive a lot in the dark, you will want the best visibility you can get to stay safe on the road. You can upgrade to an LED light kit that will not only reduce your maintenance cost, but you will also be able to see further ahead when you need to. Alternatively, if bugs are causing you a headache, you might even add some bugflectors that will make it easier to avoid those nasty insects messing up your windscreen.  

1. SatNav

Some people can get lost around the corner. If you are one of them, you will definitely benefit from a built in SatNav system. You can use a Bluetooth kit with an external device or get one fitted that matches your existing dashboard space and helps you stay on the right track. Instead of having to charge and set up your navigation, the car can do everything for you.

1. DAB Radio

For long journeys, you need music. If you often cross state borders and find it hard to find a suitable channel, you can upgrade to a DAB radio. There are plenty of aftermarket car gadgets  that are compatible with various cars, and you will be able to stay on the same channel if you are listening to an interesting talk show, or even entertain yourself with a podcast on a road trip cross country.

1. Smart Car Adapter

In case you are excited about the latest smart car technology, but can’t afford the price of the car with the latest features, you can turn your old car into a much more connected one by getting a smart car adapter. It will not only include convenience features, such as keyless entry and remote start, but also help you become a better driver by keeping track of your car’s performance and fuel efficiency.

You don’t need a new car to experience all that the latest technology has to offer. Choose one of these aftermarket gadgets and you will enjoy driving much more in the future.
