9 Best Car Accessories Every New Car Owner Should Invest In

The best car accessories that we think are super useful.

1.   Car Charger

In today's fast-paced world, staying connected on the road has become necessary.

Whether you're doing your daily commute or bringing your family out for a day of fun, you shouldn't have to worry about running out of battery juice.

This car charger lets you enjoy the convenience of staying connected by keeping your devices powered up and ready to go.

Also, at the flick of a switch, you can choose which port you want to turn on and off. Easy!

 

2. Car Card Holder

Never fumble for your cash card, petrol station card, Touch 'n Go card or ID again.

This car card holder conveniently mounts on your sun visor, keeping everything within easy reach, so you can focus on the road ahead.

It is slim and compact so it doesn't block your driving vision. You can also hold your sunglasses overhead with its velcro flap.

Say goodbye to the hassle of searching for cards and hello to a more relaxed drive.

 

3. Car Door Bowl Guard

Notice the unsightly scratches on the door bowl of other people's cars or on your old car?

They are caused by accidental scratches from our fingernails or car keys when we reach out to open the door.

And the number of scratches will just grow with time. But, you can protect your car door bowls with this car door bowl protector.

They are easy to paste and add a layer of protection and carbon fiber style to your ride. 

 

4. Car Door Edge Protector

In addition to scratches on your car door bowl, the edge of your car door can also suffer from dents and bumps over time, when you accidentally bump into the wall or the car next to yours in the parking lot.

Available in black or clear colour, these strips easily match many car colours. As one of the most essential car accessories used by Singaporean drivers, you just need to peel and stick to install it. 

 

5. Car Rim Protector

Doesn't it pain your heart when you brush your rims against the kerb and cause a kerb rash?

Protect your new wheels from accidental dings and bumps with this rim protector.

This is one of the best and most affordable car accessories you can invest for your rims that balance form and function.

Give your car wheels the protection they deserve!

 

6. Bamboo Charcoal Car Air Freshener

All sorts of odour and particles in the air can get into your car, and they don’t make for a pleasant driving experience.

Get rid of odour and allergen with this car air freshener.

The bamboo charcoal contained in each nifty pouch helps to absorb moisture, formaldehyde (a known carcinogen commonly found in car interiors), and bad smells.

Each pouch is smaller than the size of a fist so that you can stow it out of sight everywhere in your car. 

 

7. Car Steering Wheel Cover

Owning a car in Singapore is probably one of the biggest purchases you'll make in your life.

So, it's understandable that you'd want to keep your car in its best condition possible. And that includes protecting your steering wheel from wear and tear.

That's where a steering wheel cover like this one is recommended and loved by our buyers.

Designed to protect the leather on your wheel, its carbon fiber and leather exterior are both classy and sporty at the same time.

Thick and comfortable while enhancing your grip while driving. It's no surprise that it's one of the most popular steering covers among our buyers!

 

8. Car Dashboard Anti-Slip Pad

This next accessory requires absolutely no installation - simply set it on your dashboard and you'll have a handy storage solution for your keys, tissue box, and even sunglasses, all neatly organized in place.

Its textured surface and grippy underside help to hold your items when going through a hump or making a turn. 

 

9. Car Dashboard Mount Phone Holder

Many of us use our phones for navigation when we drive. A car phone mount is an essential car accessory to let you use your phone hands-free while trying to keep your eyes on the road.

This phone holder is mounted on your dashboard with its adjustable neck angled downwards so that it doesn't block your view at the windscreen level.

The bottom of the grip also has a gap to let you plug in the cable to the phone to charge even when the phone is mounted on the holder.
