Have you ever bought a car stereo? Those numbers sound completely reasonable in comparison to third-party vehicle mods. It doesn’t sound at all like they’re nickle-and-diming people. Perhaps a better comparison is that the mainstream automakers are forcing vast feature bundles on everyone. You aren’t given the choice to buy a paired-down automobile. It simply has to come with a spyware infotainment system glued into the dashboard. Honestly, it would be a lot better if vehicles came in fairly and cheap forms. Then you can take them to any third party mechanic to add whatever additional upgrades you want.

    This. I don’t need a shitty touchscreen that lags over the simplest tasks. I have a high quality one I carry with me. I first heard about these a few months ago and it made me realize I’d be fine just leaving a bluetooth speaker in the car. Doesn’t need to be a part of the vehicle. Just need power.
