Vamp Up Your Car Stereo With 2 DIN In-Dash Units
Double Din units are a large part of the modern car stereo system. They not only provide high-quality entertainment for everyone in the vehicle but they make for a highly useful GPS navigation system. With a multitude of built-in apps and features in addition to touchscreen qualities, the system is worthwhile for anybody that owns a car.
What are noticeable features of the double DIN units?There are many built-in features in the car stereo that allows for a number of ways to control different forms of media. The touchscreen-operated system includes useful features, such as the following:
- Bluetooth compatibility
- GPS navigation
- MP3 player
- DVD player
- USB input
- Lifetime traffic updates
Many of these features can be accessed by using the touch screen. If the bluetooth option is installed, music can be controlled from your MP3 player or choice of mobile device via bluetooth technology.
How are the in-dash units installed?Since these can be bought separately, many of these units require manual installation. The manual installation will often require the use of tools, such as screwdrivers, wrenches, socket sets, and panel removal tools. All of these are significant in replacing the stock unit that is already found in a car. Before completely installing the stereo, make sure to remove any negative cabling from the car battery. Doing this will prevent any short circuitry as well as harm done to both the vehicle and the person installing the system. When installing, you can choose to either solder the system into its place or crimp the wires together. If you choose to crimp, then make sure that you crimp the connectors with the right size.
What forms of media are compatible with the unit?There is already a built-in radio with HD capabilities in the car stereo system, but with Bluetooth installed, anything from smartphones and tablets to the latest MP3 player can control different forms of media on the radio. Additionally, there is a DVD player included in the Double Din system, showcasing TV shows or movies of choice on the screens connected to the DVD player in the back of the car.
What is the difference between single and double din?The double din has more features involved compared to a single din, such as a touch screen, and is much bigger in size. Many units are often as big as 7 inches.
