Car Stereo

Would a touch screen stereo for cars be safe?

Actually, it might be safer. On a large touch screen, all information is available at a glance, text is large and easy to read, many screens offer a back-up camera and you can sync a Bluetooth phone for hands-free calls.

What if I only have dash space for a standard single-width stereo?

Models designed for a single-width dash slot have a detachable monitor that mounts outside the unit.

With a large screen taking up so much space, will I lose common stereo features?

No. You'll still have the standard clock, AM/FM/XM, station scan, station presets, sub-woofer output and USB input features. Plus you'll have many extra options, including a DVD player and dual-zone listening.
