Car Thing essentially acts as a second screen for your phone, dedicated to showing you the Spotify interface. It connects to your phone for data, then your phone connects to your car stereo through either Bluetooth or an aux cable.

The package includes a 12V power adapter, USB power cable, and three different magnetic mounts so you can safely mount it and take it with you wherever you go.
