Which Vehicle Additions Will Improve Your Commute?

You dread your work commute—that two-hour long period of your day in which you do nothing but sit in your car and zone out. Some people love it, but others absolutely hate it.

Scratch that; most people hate it. After all, who likes road-raging jerks and mile-long traffic jams as everyone stops to rubberneck? Who likes the anxiety of plowing through snow drifts during harsh Minnesota winters?

Luckily, even without buying an entirely new vehicle, there are steps you can take to make the drag of your commute, well, less of a drag. Mobile Installation can help. We’re a multi service aftermarket installation company that’s familiar with tons of car modifyers, from step bars to bug shields to inverters.

So what types of modifications will make your commute a little more comfortable? We weigh in below.

Heated and Cooled Seats

This one is a given. Minnesota has frigid winters and sweltering summers; any amount of temperature control is going to make your commuting life so much more comfortable. Plus, you’re less prone to bouts of angry driving if you’re not stressed by the heat or the cold.

In particular, though, having heated seats can be life-saving—quite literally. In a state in which temperatures frequently dip below -20 degrees in the wintertime, preserving body heat is not a luxury, but instead, is essential to survival. Heated seats, of course, are not the only way to stay warm in the winter—feel free to bundle up like a marshmallow—but they certainly are a convenient and easy to install in a pre-existing vehicle.

Upgraded Car Audio Speakers

Jamming out in peace is, arguably, the only good thing about the commute. What better way to indulge your music taste than with an upgraded subwoofer or car audio amplifier? These systems are easy to install and are a good way to add value to your vehicle. They’re one of the most popular aftermarket upgrades, as the “stock speakers” that come with many vehicles are low-quality and not designed with the audiophile in mind.

As far as commuting goes, a better car audio speaker system is not only good for music, but also for podcasts and radio shows. You’re not doing much during your commute, so why not spend the time learning something new?
