Roof consoles are one of those add-ons to a vehicle where after just a very short time after it’s been fitted you’ll be wondering how you ever did without it. Convenience, enhanced driving efficiency, protecting your dashboard… the list of big benefits goes on and on.
The awesomeness of installing a roof console is that they make free space in your dash area by creating new storage for bulky items like UHF radios, CD players and other big items… plus of course with these items stored away you’ll be protecting your beloved dash!
Consoles are fantastic for vehicle resale, especially when they carry the bells and whistles. The good roof consoles have been created to look like factory-installed components instead of an add-on. Highly desired bells and whistles include LED interior and reading lights, DIN-size radio surround, microphone cable holder and lined storage box areas.
Look for roof consoles which are easy to fit to your vehicle's cabin, pockets, and interior lights. You can also find roof consoles which come with foam inserts, which means you can install radios of various sizes. Although you should know that these days there are more radio sizes than inserts on the market, so if you’re thinking of fitting a radio to your roof console it’s probably safer to purchase a full size model with an external front mount speaker. You’ll enjoy higher quality sound and you’ll save money because you won’t need to fit an additional external speaker.
When you’re shopping for roof consoles, keep convenience top of your mind. For example, thinking about things like extra storage, additional pockets, and additional interior lights to offer enhanced illumination throughput your vehicle… It's the little things in life, like being able to find something you’ve dropped in the middle of the night, which makes all the difference in how your vehicle cabin operates.
