As a woman who owns a vehicle with a backup camera and parking sensors, I can say I am very grateful to have those backup safety products. When I purchased my vehicle, it didn’t have a camera or sensors, but I chose to have them professionally installed. They have saved me from many costly repairs – probably even more times than I’m aware of. Trying to park my vehicle with car seats blocking my view and the distraction of little voices chatting in the back has become much less of a challenge. Parallel parking, especially in the dark, used to be the hardest part about driving and now it couldn’t be easier. Scraping my bumper on a cement parking block is no longer a worry.
Backup Cameras
Let me share some information about these products. When it comes to a backup camera, you’ll probably have a few options. The team at Precision Audio will help you find the best fit for your vehicle, depending on the size, make and model of your car. All of the cameras they install are high-quality and weatherproof. You never have to worry about it being damaged by the elements, even if your vehicle isn’t kept in a garage.
Monitor Options
- You will also have a few options when it comes to the monitor that will be in your vehicle for you to view the camera’s image. If you already have a screen in your dash, that screen probably can be integrated to work with your camera.
Another option is a new rearview mirror. This mirror has an embedded color monitor inside it. When you’re driving, it looks like a regular mirror, but when your car is in reverse, the camera image appears on the mirror.- One last option is to have a new standalone monitor installed in your vehicle that will be used only with the camera. In addition to being weatherproof, these cameras also have great resolution or image quality. You’ll have a great view in the daylight and in the evening. If you have small kids who like to play in the driveway, you’ll never have to worry about not being able to see them as you back out or park.
Parking Sensors
Parking sensors add another great feature to backup safety. They send ultrasonic waves that reflect off any object that may be around your vehicle. The closer you get to the object, the faster the beep will be. These sensors can be installed on the front, rear or both bumpers on your car. You’ll always be alerted before hitting that mailbox or the bike that your child left in the driveway. They are also unnoticeable—about the size of a quarter and sitting flush on your bumper.
