Create a AirPlay wifi zone in your Abarth

So while I have been waiting for my car to arived i stumbled across this cool gadget, its called the Kivic One. It transfurs media files from smart phone to any device that has a Aux, RCA, HDMI, DNLA, Airplay or Wifi. 


So all one need to do is plug tis little baby into your Aux mount the unit with Velcro or put it in the clove box and every time you play a song you can stream directly to your car with no wires. A added extra would be to get a USM min iPhone charger as airplay does drain your battery a bit.

In car entertainment with iPhone 4

So after reading many reviews about the sound system on the Abarth, so I have been playing around with the idea of using the factory fitted Inter Scope sound system, due to the fact they have a neat little sub that fits under the seat, how ever i did play with the idea of installing Alpine Or Hertz 3 way component system there is just very little space. So the only need would be a better stereo system as the factory one is not compatible with a iPod/iPhone with there Windows USB media interface.

(You can by a little adapter that makes it work)








So many of us would love a single Din iPhone head unit that has a USB that comes out of the back, that you can stream music to, that has cover flow, that you can access you iTunes account from and has wifi and 3 RCA outs. How ever we don't live in a perfect world here are a list of single Din head units that are iPhone 4 compatible, steering wheel ready that range between US $100 to US $400.
