Many drivers opt to get a pre-owned vehicle because it’s more cost-effective than buying new. Since the car had a previous owner, it can be challenging for some people to feel like they own the vehicle. Fortunately, there are several car and truck accessories that you can add to give your ride personal flair and enhanced function.

Upgrades for Your Pre-Owned Car or Truck

1. Seat Covers

If your pre-owned vehicle’s interior upholstery is damaged, opt for seat covers. This car and truck accessory will mask unsightly rips or stains, and it’ll help you customize your ride to suit your personal taste. Seat covers can also be waterproof, protecting your vehicle against liquid that’s tracked inside from a rainstorm or a day at the beach.

2. Grill Inserts

This detail adds personality to your SUV or truck and is an affordable upgrade. It’s available in a variety of styles, including shiny chrome and bold, bright colors. Due to their easy installation, you can swap grill inserts whenever you want a fresh look for your ride.

3. Reverse Cameras

Also known as a backup camera, this feature allows you to see the entire area behind the car, and it’s useful when parking or exiting a driveway. It’s ideal for higher vehicles, like trucks, because drivers can see obstacles on the ground, such as obstructions, animals, and children.

4. GPS Navigation

In Hawaii, it’s illegal to use a mobile device while driving, so get a GPS that’s attached to your dashboard for safe, hands-free navigation. Built-in systems also filter their directions through your car’s speakers so that you never miss a critical turn.
