10 weird car accessories

People add all kinds of things to their cars. Some are good ideas, others not so much. Here are some of the most unusual car accessories around, and if you have any self respect you will avoid these like the plague.


Specialty rims can be cool, but teddy bears??


Propeller trailer hitch covers, cause you never know when you'll need to drive through a flood.


Steering wheel trays. You know someone has tried using this while driving.


Sometimes you don't need a whole tray, just something to hold your fries.


Carstache. Most cars from the 70's came standard with these.


Carlashes. Hey, I think that car likes you.


Rear window message lights. Funny, I would have expected a few more expletives to come with it.


In-car record players. Before there were iPods, before cassettes, before 8-tra...
oh, forget it - just go ask your grandfather.


Car reindeer antlers. Whoa, for a minute I thought I saw Rudolph.


Novelty shifters. This one in particular will give a whole new dimension to road rage.

  2. I especially like the car messaging thing. As a new driver I can imagine that being incredibly useful when it comes to my awful driving. I'm quite glad these are availible in the UK too. Oh, also the gear shifter, but knowing the UK police, you'd probably get arrested for having that one.

  3. That’s a bizarre collection, Mike! Well, I think car accessories are there to make your vehicle stand out. The only caveat is that you have to be prepared to stand with the accessories you have chosen. We all know that people have different tastes, so their opinions about how good your car looks will differ as well.
