Cheap Car Decorations Under $20 That Actually Look Good
The short answer: cheap car decorations look good when they do one small thing well: a glow in the cup holder, a line of light along the door, a bit of sparkle on the start button, or one character on the dash. Everything below costs under $20 at the price shown, ships free and comes with 30-day returns. None of it needs tools or wiring.

Car Seat Gap Organizer That Actually Works: Filler Strips vs Gap Storage Box
The short answer: a car seat gap organizer works when it matches the width of your gap. A slim gap filler strip is best for narrow gaps and for drivers who just want things to stop falling down the side. A gap storage box is best for wider gaps, where a slim strip would drop through, and it gives you a pocket for a phone, wallet and cards. Measure the gap first and the choice usually makes itself. Gap filler strip vs gap storage box Gap filler strips Gap storage... Read more...

Where to Keep Sunglasses in the Car: The Sun Visor Holder
Sunglasses in a car end up in one of three places: the cup holder, the door pocket, or under the seat with a scratched lens. The easiest place to keep them is on the sun visor, in a clip that holds them by the arm so they're always in reach. Our sun visor sunglasses holder ($12.99) is a leather clip, 11 × 7 cm, that grips the edge of a standard visor with a sprung clip. No adhesive, no drilling. You push to release the glasses with one hand, and... Read more...
Do Smokeless Car Ashtrays Work? What They Do and Don't Do
The short answer: a smokeless car ashtray works by pulling smoke down through a filter with a small fan, so less of it drifts into the headliner and seats. Ours, the smokeless car ashtray with anion purifier ($19.99), runs a 3600 RPM fan and pushes negative-ion air back out. It is battery powered and works with one button. It reduces smoke that lingers. It does not make a car smoke-free, and the filter is a consumable you replace. How a smokeless ashtray works A normal ashtray only holds ash. A... Read more...
