The Top 7 Car Accessories That A New Car Driver Shouldn’t Miss

  • Written by Ariana Mortenson

Nowadays, the majority of cars are manufactured with some standard features. Though we value them a lot, we find them insufficient for our adventurous ride. So, have you bought a car for the very first time? These must-have car accessories will make your ride jolly, for sure!

Besides, there are several other additions that are not only fun but are also important for a smooth and safe ride. Your friends are going to appreciate the environment of your car the next time you invite them on holiday.

  1. Tyre Pressure Gauge

It's significantly important to keep an eye on the pressure of your tyres as it’s one of the essential accessories. Low pressure in the tyre can be extremely hazardous for your ride, especially when you ride at high speeds and for longer periods. Besides, if you ride them on uneven dirt roads, ideally you should keep your tyre pressure low. Therefore, a pressure gauge is crucial. The digital pressure gauge with tread depth indicator is a highly recommended one for the good condition of your tyres.

  1. Accessory Mirrors for Hidden Spots

Every first-time driver finds car parking a difficult task. True that! Like riding a bike, you’ll get a hang of parking too. But the crux of the matter is often first-time drivers get so happy driving that their mirrors take a back seat. No matter how far automobile technologies have come, blind spots remain a concern. It’s the worst task that a car driver does, especially when learning to park. At that time, accessory mirrors work as wireless reverse cameras.

  1. Camera On The Dashboard

Safety while driving is on every driver’s mind. However, the range of what we can see with our human eyes have limitations. That’s where a dash camera comes in handy. It has a wide-angle lens with 720p or 1080p resolution with both back and front perspectives. What’s more? You can even receive a recording feature. That helps in documenting accidents and claim for insurance. Its features include distance and proximity alerts, high-speed alerts and gravity sensors. On top of that, its installation process is also easy.

  1. Head-Up Display (HUD)

This device transfigures any smartphone into a HUD for your automobile. It projects GPS onto a transparent screen in front of your eyes. Whether you’ve Android or iOS, it comes in handy to receive calls, control music and read texts. HUD has a lot to offer to you; hence, make it your companion on the road today!

  1. Transmitter for Bluetooth

Older model car owners find inconvenience without Bluetooth communication. Taking this into consideration, automobile manufacturers have begun to manufacture in-built Bluetooth cars. But what about those who own older models? Do they need to purchase a new car? Absolutely not! Just buy a Bluetooth car transmitter; it serves as an interface to connect your phone to the car. Through that, you’ll be able to listen to your favourite playlist from your phone on your stereo. Besides, it will assist in managing your incoming calls.

  1. Luminous Lights

Driving in the outskirts or outside the city is dangerous at night. The street lights are either fuzzy or non-existent. Hence, your headlights or high beams only illuminate light while driving at night. A set of strong, long-range lights while driving can make a huge impact in the dark area. It will provide you an additional split second to watch animals crossing the road, for example, kangaroos.

  1. Tent

Are you a traveller? The tent can be one of your road trip gadgets for your next road trip. You can place the tent on the roof of your car where adventures lead you. It’s an innovative and expandable product that’s available on the market so easily. Its installation on SUVs or other large vehicles is also effortless. Comfortably, two adults and two children can spend their nights under all weather.
