After Market Upgrades (lemmy.world)

Hello! I have a very low mileage, but older car (about 33k miles and it's a 2011 Chevy Cruze.) I have no real interest in purchasing a new car but I do kind of wish I had some of the bells and whistles of a newer car. We have an excellent local place who can do installations of electronics in cars; I've gotten a remote starter with them on my last car and it worked great.

Do you guys recommend after market upgrades in my situation at all? If so what kinds of things you would recommend (in general or brands of things.) If nothing else I really want another remote starter for the winter, but it's been so long since the last one I had, I don't know how different they are. (My old one had a fob!)

In terms of usage, I mostly just use my car to drive to appointments and get groceries, hence why the mileage is so low.

I thought a rear/backup cam would be nice. I don't know what other options there are that are worth going. If the answer is 'none' then I'm glad I asked :)

Hmm yeah maybe. I've gotten along ok without it but it could be useful sometimes. I don't think I'll worry about it as long as I can keep using my current car.
