Do you have an AUX jack in your car? or bluetooth already? Adding an Amazon ECHO to your car may be a good way to get a personal assistant in your car. Get access to all your music, get it to play by your voice commands, get reminders on appointments and all the other features an Amazon Echo can offer.
One side benefit is that the amazon Echo actually fits flush inside most car cupholders! Did you know that?
First, you need an amazon echo
we recommend you get the echo dot which is the smallest version.
Now, if you have bluetooth already, it will pair automatically by the time you have your seat belt is fastened and the car turned on. If you do not have bluetooth, and have an aux jack, you will need a 3.5 to 3.5 cable
Something like below:
You will also need an DC to AC adapter for your car, if you do not have an AC jack in the car already. We recommend a simple one that works through the cigarette lighter plug.

And then, thats it!
