CAR CRAZY

In the past, drivers who were tormented by the scorching heat of the sun would turn to the use of conventional tinted film (which offer token protection) or the more effective BUT blatantly illegal reflective films. So, to overcome this, UMW Toyota in Malaysia has finally realized that there is a high demand for window tint, especially given the fact of our country’s hot climate, all year round. The Toyota Genuine Accessory window tint will be available on optional basis.

In their surveys which they conducted they have noticed that 70 per cent of Toyota customers in Malaysia have a high tendency to install this addition into their new cars.

So, I decided to have a section specially catered to such topics, Car Accessories. Being this the first post, what better way to start it off then to share a review of the latest trend these days - Bluetooth. One item that can be associated to this term would be Sony’s very first Bluetooth-enabled car audio player, the MEX-BT5000.

Imagine driving your car whilst listening to the radio and then suddenly the cell phone rings, and you try to answer the call with your attention now drawn on finding the volume controls of the player. Chances are you might manage to answer the call in time, hopefully without endangering other road users out there. So in situations such as this, it would be wise to have a hands-free cell phone and better still, a Bluetooth ear-piece. Read the rest of this entry »
