Now it's not a major upgrade, but these awesome and affordable gadgets will go a long way at updating your old ride. From handy dashcams to a pizza maker, these items will make an older car feel that much comfier!
Dash Cam
These days you can never be too sure. A dashcam not only covers your story in the event of an accident but can also lower your insurance rates depending on your carrier. Dashcams are also great at preventing insurance fraud, resolving hit and run accidents, and if you have a teenage driver, will help you monitor their driving habits.
Power Cup DC to AC Power Inverter
You can say goodbye to multiple car chargers because this pick-me-up has enough energy for all your devices. The Power Cup inverter is a coffee mug-style charger that fits perfectly in your cup holder with two outlets and a USB charger on top. Complete with 200 Watts of continuous power you can charge your phone and so much more.
*Wireless Backup Camera *
Almost as important as a dashcam, a wireless backup camera will do wonders to update an older ride. You don’t need a fancy car to tell you what to watch out for while in reverse. You can add a backup camera to your old car. We especially like the Magellan Wireless Backup Camera which connects to a GPS device.

This product from AutoExec fits comfortably over the wheel and has enough room to accommodate a laptop or if you’re running late, your lunch.

Black and Decker 12V Automotive Pivoting Vac

Well not anymore! No need for messy cars because this handheld vacuum plugs right into your 12V charger. The best vacuum is the one that’s already in your car!

You can’t forget your travel pooch. The To Go bowl fits in your cup holder, so your dog or cat is sure to have proper food and water on a car ride! (Just make sure you stop for bathroom breaks!)
