A new car stereo is a great way to update the dash in an older vehicle. Adding a touchscreen to a car that doesn't have one is a huge bonus, so you can interact with your phone more safely. With Android Auto or Apple CarPlay, you can use voice commands to answer phone calls and texts, plus use your favorite mapping apps on your road trip.

You can also just keep it simple and step up to the improved sound of a single-DIN radio. If you don't need or care about a touchscreen, these little stereos rock just as loud as their fancier cousins. Plus they offer a way to keep your phone charged and play all your favorite music. Pair one of them with a mount for your phone, and you've still got the touchscreen.

An aftermarket car stereo offers upgraded features, superior sound, and added convenience over most stock stereos. You're stuck in your car sometimes...why not enjoy it more?
