Cool Car Accessories

Necessity is the mother of invention, and there are few better examples than all the cool car accessories you can find that solve common problems and add innovative functionality to your vehicle. Many of these clever accessories address common complications drivers may not know exist. The following list covers just some of the countless clever accessories available for cars, trucks, and SUVs.

Traction Boards

If you drive your vehicle on the beach or do a bit of off-road driving in muddy conditions, traction boards are a must-have accessory. Also known as sand ladders and recovery boards, these devices work by wedging between straightened tires and low-traction terrain. With this accessory, you may be able to avoid calling a tow truck when your vehicle gets stuck.

Car Trash Cans

Most of us are guilty of resorting to leaving trash on the floor of our vehicles or attaching a plastic bag to the shift knob to act as a makeshift garbage can. Neither of these solutions is good for the carpet or shift knob, respectively, but a leak-proof car trash can works without the associated issues. The accessories can tie/attach to your headrests or center console to make it easier to keep your vehicle tidy

Jack Kits

A flat tire can ruin any trip, and the stock jack kit your vehicle may have come with doesn’t exactly set the world on fire with its ease of use. However, there are plenty of high-quality jack kits out there that make it much less stressful to swap in a spare tire in an already difficult situation. Some of these kits feature more ergonomically friendly motions to lift and lower the vehicle, while others use electric power to assist.

Trunk Organizer

While offering the space to carry things around with you on your drives, trunks and cargo areas are woefully under-equipped to keep what you’re storing organized and in place. This is where the often inexpensive trunk organizer comes into play: These boxes feature dividers and pockets to keep things separated and feature hooks to secure themselves so your stuff doesn’t go all over when you make a sharp turn.

Wireless Backup Camera Kits

Rear backup cameras are typically standard on newer vehicles and address one of the most persistent challenges that has pestered drivers for more than a century: having a clear view of the space behind the car when backing up. Hard-wiring this helpful functionality into an older vehicle can be very expensive, if not impossible, but wireless kits work around this limitation. A wireless backup camera kit includes a display and a camera that uses a wireless transmitter to transfer the video stream.

These are just some of the many cool car accessories you can find for your vehicle. Other neat accessories included Head-Up Displays, interior LED illumination, portable jump starters, and more.
