How to Buy a GPS and Satellite Radio Receiver for Your Car

You can now buy a GPS (Global Positioning System) navigation system that includes satellite radio. This combination may be expensive but worth it if you want both functions. Follow the instructions below to buy a GPS and satellite radio receiver for your car.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

1. Be prepared to spend a good chunk of money. GPS and satellite radio receivers cost between $1,000 and $1,500.
2. Decide which type of satellite radio service you wish to purchase. XM Radio and Sirius Radio are the two types of satellite radio service. Choose a device that is compatible with the radio service you want.
3. Consider buying an in-dash model. This is convenient for you but also vulnerable to theft. Weigh your options and decide whether an in-dash or a removable receiver is right for you.
4. Assess the display of the device, especially its user-friendliness. This is important to test before spending your money.
5. Shop around for the best deal. Check the Internet before shopping at an electronics store, as online deals are often better.
