How to Make Any Old Radio Smart and Bluetooth Enabled

Model: Smart Smart Various
Part: Car stereo

Our YouTuber suggests a really simple and economical way to modernise your old car radio. This device is called GOVOCE and is available on eBay for £33.62 (including delivery). Just plug it into the cigarette lighter socket, connect it via Bluetooth to your phone, and tune the radio to a specific frequency of 89.3 MHz, where you can listen to Spotify, for example. Naturally, this device will override a radio station, which can be quite strong, so there may be minor interference at high volume, but keeping the volume normal will prevent any disturbance. You can also use your phone for navigation. Essentially, you can do everything you would with a smart radio with Android Auto. If you unplug it, the original radio will return.
