IN-CAR technology has moved on from medium and long wave radios, tapes and CDs, to now incorporate sat nav, hands-free calls, music streaming and more. We’ve all got used to instant connectivity in modern cars, but is there a way to get that into a Defender?
Thankfully, there are several ways to solve the problem, but one of the most effective comes in the form of a double DIN head unit. The DIN refers to the standard radio/CD size and double means literally that; it is twice as tall, which permits a larger screen to be used. So, gone are the minute buttons and garish flashing lights of cheap aftermarket radios. With a larger dash footprint, a touchscreen permits a smartphone system to be employed. This permits full connectivity with a smartphone, allowing music streaming, sataccessible in the centre of the car’s dash.
