Navigation Systems

Vehicle Navigation

navigationNavigation Systems, or GPS Systems, have been a popular category for WSS Westminster Speed & Sound since they first hit the market in 1997.  Navigation systems are now available on almost all Smartphones so many people do not see the need to have a system integrated into their vehicle.  The fact remains that installed systems are more accurate and possess the most detailed mapping available. They definitely cost more than an app on your phone, but if you want the most accurate mapping, an installed navigation system is the way to go.

Another interesting fact of an installed system is that when you use your cell phone for directions and you get a phone call, the mapping is disabled until the call is finished. It can be pretty easy to miss important turns in this instance.

Let’s assume that you have decided to get an installed navigation system.  Now you have several decisions to make:

  • What screen size do you want?
  • Do you want it to have real time traffic rerouting?
  • Would you like a system that can access the cloud to get you even more information when you are looking for a point of interest?
  • Would you like to add satellite radio?
  • How about a rearview camera, since you now have a color screen in your dash?
  • Does your existing car stereo system sound as good as your home theater system?
  • Would you like it to sound better?

Depending on the answers to the questions above, it might be a great time to upgrade the sound in your vehicle while the navigation system is getting installed. Most of our systems will also allow you to play music from your smartphone and also are enabled for Bluetooth handsfree calling.

That is a lot to think about. The good news is that the staff at WSS Westminster Speed and Sound are experts in vehicle navigation. Every year we weed through the products out there and deliver what we feel are the best performing, best valued systems available.

What makes us different is that we like to set up a consultation appointment with you and your vehicle. This allows us to get to know you and your vehicle better, so we can custom design a system that is tailored to your individual needs.

So if you would like to explore having a navigation system installed in your vehicle, please Contact Us, call us, or even better yet, stop by. We will help you navigate your way to a great system!
