It would seem that until quite recently the car navigator could only be seen on "cool cars", and many then perceived it more as a luxury. Today this useful device on the car is becoming a common thing.
When choosing a place to install the auto-navigator in the car, start with the choice of the navigator itself. After all, each model on the market today has its own characteristics. Firstly, these are the dimensions, which will not least affect the possibility of placing the device in one place or another. Secondly, these are the mounting features. The manufacturer provides as many options as possible. Nevertheless, each device has its own differences here. Thirdly, it is necessary to take into account the control system of the device. The touch function is convenient when you can work with the device directly through the menu on the screen. In a different arrangement, the keys on the body of the navigator will be more accessible. Fourthly, the ability to connect to a power source without disturbing the appearance of the dashboard and piling up wires. As a rule, this is the cigarette lighter socket. It is important when determining the location to take into account the possibility of direct sunlight on the display. Although the latest models of car navigators are equipped with an anti-glare coating, which allows you to see a clear picture even in the sunniest weather. Another important detail. The autonavigator works by communicating with satellites. Almost every car has a roof on top, which prevents the signal from passing through. Some modern "cars" are equipped with athermal windshields, i.e. with heating. Such glass also interferes with the passage of the navigation signal. It turns out that the best option is to connect your GPS receiver to an external antenna located on the roof of your car. This will provide him with guaranteed signal reception in any conditions. Due to the fact that today the navigator is installed on a variety of cars, sometimes with an interior that is not quite designed to accommodate such a device, some motorists have to design their own mounting systems. The main thing here is that the device helps you along the way, and does not obstruct your view. It is not out of place to think about the possibility of quick shooting of the device when you leave the car on the street. Having buried themselves on the navigator, malefactors can try to steal it, damaging your car.
