Digital Meets Old School in the Mustang

The exterior was repainted black, akin to the futuristic vehicles used in television and film.  In addition, LED lights were added to the steel alloy mag wheels, front grille and bumpers. Perhaps Microsoft wanted their vehicle to be flashier and powerful, hence the addition of the LED lights to make it brighter and ultramodern.
The car electronics used in the interior were the most advanced of its kind. What the West Coast Customs did is refurbish the interior of the 1967 Ford Mustang and make it akin to the latest model. For good measure, they also added a Windows tablet to the passenger side of the dashboard and even equipped the vehicle with a free wifi connection. The best thing about the customized vehicle is that it can be operated without the use of car keys, using the latest Nokia cell phones in order to make the vehicle function.
The 21st century arguably brought the most significant changes in automobile design and function. Today’s generation of cars is equipped with a Global Positioning System mechanism designed to navigate the vehicle to its desired location. They are also equipped with television monitors on the dashboard and the front headrests, so that people can watch a television program or a movie while on a road trip. Moreover, digital display has replaced the analog systems in the tachometer, odometer and trip meter of the vehicle. And in some models, driverless cars are also starting to make its mark. Perhaps Microsoft did its best to digitize a classic vehicle, but then again, it may be either a good or a bad concoction between the old and the new.

Digital Meets Old School in the Mustang

The digital age is dominating the first decade of the 21st century.  Computers became smaller and more powerful, innovative products such as the IPhone suddenly gained popularity and critical acclaim, and even select features such as the MP3 and internet capabilities were added to existing products such as television and radio. In this example, a vintage automobile model was tweaked to the hilt, in order to make it akin to the digital age.
The car model is a 1967 Ford Mustang, one of the best-looking automobiles in the late 1960s. The Ford Mustang, through its different generations, is the forerunner of what is now known as a pony car: a sports car made affordable, compact and family friendly. This caters to sports car aficionados, office workers, and families everywhere, making it a versatile vehicle.
The owners at Microsoft opted to transform the 1967 Ford Mustang into a futuristic type of vehicle, complete with the latest digital technology that the aforementioned company can offer. Therefore, they consulted the well-renowned customs shop West Coast Customs for some concepts in the tuning and modernization of the classic automobile, and they made major changes to both the interior and the exterior.

Car Electronics of Today

There have been changes made to vehicular electronics to allow for these changes to be made. Thanks to electronics, people are now able to keep themselves entertained on long road trips and in between their travel points. This is not very different how we enjoy movies when we are on long haul flights. The changes in electronics have also allowed owners to enjoy other entertainment devices and perks.

If you ever decide to have changes made to your car’s electronics, keep in mind that this is not something that you can do yourself like changing the paint or sticking on decals. For your car’s electronics, be sure to get in touch with professionals who will be able to properly guide you and make the changes to your vehicle. It can be a little dangerous if something goes wrong with your electronics because there have been reports of fires being caused by faulty electronic wiring. Be sure to always consult an expert before you make changes or better yet, get an expert to do it himself. Remember, it’s always better safe than sorry, you may be spending a little more by taking it in to a shop but at least you will know that things are done correctly.

Car makers have been able to make changes to the electronics when it comes to heating fibers in car seats. There was a time that woven metal braids were used to insulate heating mats that are usually found in car seats. These days, scientists have been able to make changes to that and it is actually helped improve car electronics on the whole. The carbon heating mats have allowed for more even heating and the feeling is that of an enveloping heat unlike with the older version, made of wires.

Another breakthrough for car electronics is the ability to be able to watch movies while in the car. In the older days, if you wanted to be able to watch a movie while in transit, you would just have to bring your laptop along or a portable DVD player. These days, a person can watch from the car, literally from the car. Newly made vehicles, allow for mounted plasma screens from which the passengers can watch their choice films. The usual set up is there is usually on plasma screen in from that is located on the dashboard and then there are also plasma screens at the back of the seats for the viewing of the passengers in the back.

While it is true that music played in your audio system can be a very reliable companion along the road, you also need to consider the other passengers. What if you have kids with you? Will they enjoy the kind of music that you play?

If this is going to be the case then you have to install video system along with your

audio system. These two go along together perfectly as the video system can be connected to the audio system to provide crisp and better sounds for the movie or DVD you are playing. Kids simply adore watching cartoon movies and having a video system in your car is the perfect treat for them whenever you need to travel with them in faraway places.

Audio and video systems are also essential things that will serve as your companions whenever you are on a traffic jam. If you’ve been stuck there for hours, your audio and video system will help you while the hours away in the middle of the traffic.

Another type of car electronics that you may want to install in your car is the Globe Positioning System. This is a very essential device which will help you find your way whenever you are driving in a place which seem new to you and you’re not familiar with.
