Decorating your car and making it your own is probably the best thing of owning a car. Some car accessories are totally for the look – like steering wheel covers and floor mats.
I also found some that are incredibly smart and help keep the car organized.
I have rounded up the 9 car accessories you seriously need – starting with smart interior car accessories, star wars car accessories, and finally girly car accessories.
Smart Interior Car Accessories
These three interior car accessories will make your life so much easier and happier! I love every single one of them and to make things easier for you, I’ve shared direct shopping links to each. (The purchase of items through some of the links will help add a few pennies to our account, so thank you for the support!)
Smartphone Car Kit – With Car Locator
This car kit has it all: FM Transmitter (so you can play songs from your phone through your radio), hands-free calls, and a car locator (never lose your car in the parking lot again).
If finding your car in the parking lot isn’t an issue for you, I still recommend finding a USB charging bluetooth receiver for your car that you can use for hands-free calling. There are so many cable-free options out there.
Car Seat Organizer
Are you like me? Do you seem to spend most of your time in your car? I used to keep a tote bag in my car to carry everything back in the house at the end of the week. Then I discovered the joy of car seat back organizers.
These aren’t just for kids. They can hold everything from pens and pads of paper to cleaning wipes and tissues. They help keep anyone’s car clean, they are a serious game changer!
Heated Seat Cushion
Heated seats can make all the difference in places that get frigid weather early in the morning.
I suggesting finding one that lets you choose the temperature. Some seat covers can get quite toasty! If you live somewhere that also has extremely hot temps in the summer, you can even find a cushion that produces cooling too. (Hello! Talking about our corner of Texas!!)
Star Wars Car Accessories
Now that you have some necessary accessories, let’s look at the fun ones! Embrace your inner geek with a few Star Wars car accessories. My favorites are an R2D2 USB Charger, floor mats, and steering wheel cover.
R2D2 USB Charger
R2D2 has always been and always will be my favorite character from Star Wars. This USB Charger is the cutest thing ever. It fits perfectly in your cup holder too. It can do a few other fun things too! It has 2 USB ports, makes a sad whistling sound when a device is running out of power, has a light-up eye, and a rotating head.
Floor Mats
Floor mats are just one of the simplest ways to add personality to your vehicle. One of the most cost-effective ideas is to buy an entire Star Wars car kit that includes the steering wheel cover and floor mat in one.
Of course, if you want to create a look that is entirely your own, you can buy individual floor mats too.
Steering Wheel Covers
Decorating your steering wheel with different covers is a quick and inexpensive way to change up the look.
In fact, My Cool Car Stuff has Darth Vader steering wheel covers, or ones designed to look like stormtroopers and Boba Fett.
Car Accessories for Girls
You don’t have to be a girl to really enjoy these accessories, and some girls might even laugh at this list. Find what makes you happy – it’s your car.
Headrest hanger
I filed this under car accessories for girls because we are more likely to carry a purse – or handbag / pocketbook. More than once I have had to keep my purse on a seat or at my feet. If you buy one of these inexpensive headrest hangers, you can keep your purse off the floor and within your reach.
Console Side Pocket
Console side pocket organizers are a game changer. It keeps things from falling in the side of the seat and those slim things you need within your reach are finally organized. This keeps your sunglasses and other odds and ends in reach.
Cup Holder Coasters
I love personalization and monograms. Now aren’t these cup holder coasters just perfect? The designs are super cute and they are one-of-a-kind. Plus – bonus – they keep your cup holders clean!
I hope you found a few more accessories for your car. Don’t forget to share this post to Facebook for your friends – and pin it to your favorite board.
