Conclusion and Verdict
In conclusion, the iClever Himbox Bluetooth Hands-Free Car Kit is an excellent alternative to a built-in device. The cost of replacing a broken sync device could be in the hundreds of dollars, while the Himbox will only set you back about $30 USD.
The call quality was as good as you could ask for and the sound quality from streaming music also quite good. The gold plated connection will last longer before they may suffer that dreadful static distortion from the connectors being wore out. The actual device that mounts to your dash is about the size of a fifty cent piece and can easily be mounted and concealed.
If you are in the market for a cheap alternative to replace your broken built-in device or upgrade your current car that was not equipped from the factory look no further because the Himbox will meet those demands.
The iClever Himbox has MRSP around $29 USD on Amazon.
