Are you a convertible owner? Perhaps you are a convertible enthusiast or an aspiring soft top owner. Regardless, if you’re anything like us, you love convertibles, especially soft tops. You love the flexibility, the luxury, the excitement, and the thrill of the open road. There is so much to enjoy about a convertible, but what if you want to enjoy your car even more? Keep reading to discover our list of essential accessories to keep your convertible comfortable, convenient, and in top shape. Then, read on to find out where to go for a professional soft top replacement, to keep the ultimate convertible accessory – your soft top – looking its best.
All-Weather Floor Mats
How are the floors of your convertible looking? Whether they look great, or there is something left to be desired, any convertible could use a set of all-weather floor mats. These can be made from plastic or rubber, and are able to catch dirt and debris dragged in from shoes as well as any spills that may occur. These mats are then easy to clean, because of the materials they are generally made from. Imagine: you spill some of your takeaway coffee while driving. Now imagine: simply removing your all-weather mat, hosing, or wiping it down and replacing it in your car once dry. These mats are extremely durable and make the perfect accessory for your convertible soft top.
Car Cover
Every convertible should have a cover to go with it. It’s the perfect practical and functional accessory for your soft top. A cover can protect your car from elements like the rain, wind, and the harsh sun when it is not in a garage or under a carport. Plus, a cover can also protect your convertible from dust or debris when it is undercover.
Mobile Phone Mount
This is an important accessory for any driver in any car, including a soft top. VicRoads law states that the only time a driver may use GPS navigation services on a phone is if the phone is ‘secured in a commercially designed holder fixed to the vehicle’. Using a navigation system is important for many drivers, which is why a mount for a mobile phone is such a great accessory for convertible owners. It is also critical to note that using any other feature of a phone while driving is not only extremely dangerous, but is illegal too, and punishable by a fine of $545.
A Secure Lock Box
A lock box is the perfect extra feature for any convertible, especially soft top convertibles. These lock boxes come in a variety of makes, sizes, and styles, and in many cases, can be attached or locked to fixed features in your car like the seat mounts. They are generally attachable to secure points in a car, and they are a perfect and secure place to leave any valuables, such as your phone, wallet, money, or other tech accessories or gadgets. This makes it easy to leave your convertible with the top down, giving you the flexibility to come and go from your car as you please. You can rest assured that any valuables you need or want to leave in the car, are safe and protected in the lock box.
