Upgrade Details:

This VW Tiguan came into the shop to upgrade its very basic factory radio. We replaced it with a brand-new touchscreen display that’s not only highly responsive, but also packed with features like wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto—making connectivity and navigation way easier.

We also made sure to retain the factory steering wheel controls, so everything feels familiar and easy to use. On top of that, we added a reverse camera that automatically activates when the car is put into reverse, providing a clear, wide-angle view with helpful parking guidelines for added safety and convenience.
