5 Must Have Car Accessories You Cant Do Without
Cars are more than just a means of transportation
for most of us. They are our fashion statement
as well as our second home as we end up spending
3-4 hours in them on a daily basis. So how do we
make our cars more comfortable and convenient on
the move? This is where car accessories come
into play. Now the market is full of cheap and
so-called useful car accessories which one of
these should you invest into? We at CARS24
decided to make your life easier and have come up
with 5 must have car accessories that you should
not drive your car without. Here we go
Must Have Car Accessory 1 Mobile Charger We
cant live without our smartphones even while
driving a car. This is because, from Bluetooth
streaming of songs to using Google Maps for
navigation, our mobiles are making our lives
easier even while on the move. This also means
the battery life goes for a toss. A mobile
charger hence is probably one the most important
car accessories. Make sure you get one of a
reputed make and with a minimum output of 2
amperes this ensures your phone will charge
quickly. 2 Portable Tyre Inflator Number two on
our list of must-have car accessories is a device
that is seldom used but when required, it can
rescue us from an unwanted situation in the
middle of nowhere. A punctured tubeless tyre can
be repaired easily and post that, a portable tyre
inflator can help you inflate the tyre by
powering it through the power outlet of your car.
A good inflator can refill a completely flat
tyre in about 10-15 minutes. Further, you can
also skip long queues at the filling station and
check/fill air into the car tyres yourself at
home. 3 Car Perfume A car that smells good,
feels good. Invest into a good car freshener or
perfume for about Rs 500-600 and take care of
unwanted odour and bad smell from the car
interiors. These are easily available and will
surely make others take notice when they step
into your car.

4 Mobile / GPS Holder As stated above, we are
becoming more and more dependent on mobiles
phones for various functions including listening
to music and navigation on the move. Though we
dont recommend you to use or even look at your
mobile while driving, if you still want to
glance at the phone every now and then, do so by
using a mobile holder. Various kind of mobile
holders are now in the market. These include the
one that have a suction function and can be
installed on the windscreen, magnetic ones that
can be installed into the air-con vents and even
the ones with anti-slip mat so that they can be
kept on the dashboard. 5 Pepper Spray And
finally one of the most important car accessories
is a can of pepper spray. Do not have the notion
that a pepper spray can will only be useful for
female drivers. These cans can be used by anyone
in emergency situations and for
self-defense during unwanted incidents. Keep
these handy in the door pocket. The best part
about these cans is that they cost low (Rs
200-300) and can also be carried along outside
the car easily. Other Useful Car
Accessories Apart from the above, you can also
invest in a set of sun blinds. However, do
remember that as per law, even sun blinds are
illegal to use. That said, Indian summers are
scorching hot and we all end up using these. Next
car accessory is something that you can use
every day a special car cloth. These have the
ability to attract dust particles and are also
useful in case you spill over that hot coffee
around the cup holders. Lastly, a tow hook and a
torch can come handy on long trips. Its not
just you but in case you have to rescue a
stranded motorist, you can use the tow hook to
pull the other car. Ditto for the torch these
things show their worth when you need them one
fine day!
