By Dan Bodrero


How does one define a car in terms of popularity? Almost everyone has different standards on the matter. Some like their cars to remain with their stock color and accessories such as steering wheels, dash board covers, and floor mats and still be popular. On the other hand, cars that have been modified and have been fitted with custom seat covers, mufflers, and bright headlights also rake in a lot of popularity points.

For this year, here are the 10 most popular cars in terms of web visits and not the actual number of registered owners:

1. Chevrolet Corvette - a high-performance sports car, boasting of a 430-horsepower V8 and impressive fuel efficient mechanism. The Chevrolet Corvette consumes 16 miles per gallon in the city and 26 miles per gallon while on the highway. The interior details of the 2008 Chevy Corvette need no customization of its car seat covers, dashboard, and the likes. A total break from its predecessors' interiors, the insides of this car is just magnificent.

2. Ford Mustang - the Mustang remains to be one of the most popular cars from the long line of Ford models, offering a diversity of performance options: 2 body-styles, 4 trims, 2 engines, 2 transmissions and a wide list of additional features. Though the stock accessories are already pristine as they are, using customized interior details such as floor mats won't hurt.

3. Dodge Challenger - returning from 35-year absence from the road, the classic muscle car that is the 2008 Dodge Challenger is boosted by a 6.1-liter V8 engine pumping 425 horses. The Dodge Challenger also prides itself with Bluetooth connectivity, satellite navigation, and Keyless starting capability.

4. BMW M3 - running for the first time on a 414 HP/ V8 engine, this car comes in sedan, coupe, and convertible types. The car also comes in different stock colors. Speaking of colors, one can mix and match with its posh interiors, starting with the dashboard and car seat covers. The transmission is also a thing of beauty, one can choose between a 6-speed manual transmission, or a new 7-speed M Double-Clutch transmission with Drivelogic.

5. Porsche 911 - with a horse power numbering to 480 and a sleek exterior design and metallic finish, who would not want to be behind this car's steering wheel? A true stunner, the Porsche 911 can burst to 60 mph in a matter of 3.7 seconds. Speaking of metallic finish, one can tweak the seats and sport a set of metallic custom seat covers.

6. Mitsubishi Eclipse - the sporty coupe from Mitsubishi, the Eclipse has evolved from its predecessors in terms of style and shape. This car blitzes on a 3.8-liter V6 that creates 265 horsepower to drive the front wheels.

7. Lamborghini Gallardo - a two-seater on a V10 engine, this model is Lamborghini's best-selling model. What makes this car so desirable? It possesses an impressive 560 horsepower.

8. Nissan 350Z - launched in 2003 but was not remodeled since then, the Z car from Nissan is powered by a 3.5-liter V6 that produces 306-horsepower. The Nissan 350Z comes in coupe or convertible.

9. Mazda MX-5 Miata - a further advancement from its 1989 forefather, the 2008 Mazda MX-5 Miata boasts of quick steering, easy handling, and a sporty physique. Now available in the convertible type, no doubt this model will sell like pancakes.

10. Nissan GT-R - running on 480 horsepower, the Nissan GT-R is an all-wheel drive coupe that can perform exceptionally well on almost all types of surface. With a top speed of 200 mph, yet meeting ultra-low emission vehicle (ULEV) standards, this car is truly one for the environment. Another thing, the Nissan GT-R can achieve 60 mph in 3.5 seconds.

Why Auto Accessories?

The market for auto accessories is huge and there is a reason for it. Auto accessories are an extension of our personality. These accessories enhance the look of our vehicle, they protect the vehicle, or they do both. Accessories are part of what makes the vehicle unique to you. There are plenty car accessories, both interior and exterior, to satisfy your automotive accessories needs.

Starting with the interior of the car, most of us think of the sound system. If the car has a good sound system then life is good. Next we consider auto interior protection.

This protection can be special car mats to hold the road debris and keep the mess off the floor. These mats may be plastic trays, or just nice rubber mats. If we have a little extra cash and want to give ourselves a little extra pampering, we go with the super thick 48 oz. car mats.

Next we consider seat cover protection. The type of seat cover protection is a statement to who we are. If we have a vehicle that spends a lot of time on trails and in the woods then we will choose a polycotton product. Something that can take the abuse of a rough ride. If we are into the look and feel of the seat cover then we will choose a micro suede, velour, or some fabric like that. If we want something in between then we are likely to choose a saddle or tweed fabric to enhance the interior look.

For those of us that want to kick the look of the interior up a notch we will choose a dashboard addition, something in wood or metal would be nice. Perhaps we want to add a dash mat to cover the cracks of a worn out dash. Dash mats can be personalized with team logos and other personal identifiers.

What about auto exterior accessories. Auto body kits are available for most models. You can add the whole kit or go with an accent. Maybe headlight covers, mirror covers, a car hood scoop, you get the picture. Maybe spiff up the wiper blades, add some window graphics, or change the look of your wheels. Even adding a gas cap cover adds flare to your vehicle.

Auto accessories provide good looks, help maintain auto care, and add protection to your vehicle investment. You spend a lot of time in and around your car so why not give it some aftermarket accessories attention.

Neon Car Lights, What the Kits Include and What to Look Out for When Purchasing

Posted: Thursday, February 17, 2011

By Antonio T Gabellone


When purchasing Neon Car Lights for your most loved vehicle, there are a few things that you need to be aware of so that you don't get burn and end up with less then what you started with. I'm mainly talking about the quality of the lights and where you got them from.

A lot of the Big manufactures of neon car lights like Plasmaglow, Streetglow and Liteglow are the only brands that I would recommend when it come to choosing your lights. By purchasing from one of these makers you can be assured of quality parts and performance, and not to mention getting everything in the kits that is required to do the installation. Yes, some cheaper makers of these car lighting accessories do not give you everything that is needed in the kits, so be aware of this, or else it will end up costing you more to get the extra bits required.

And one other thing that stands true when you buy car neon lights, and that is "you only get what you pay for", meaning if it cost you much less to buy the lights then what it would from one of the big brand name's such as PlasmaGlow, then your only going to get a product that will last for a short time. Think Quality first, then you won't have to re-install another kit for some time, and you'll save money in the long run too, cause believe me, it takes a full day for a beginner to install neon under car lights the first time, so you don't want to be doing that too often either.

In regards to all the websites out there that are dealers of neon car lights from some of the big brand name manufacturers, unfortunately are not all fully legit with the running of their business. When i say this, i mean that they DO sell GOOD products (their products may even be from big brand name Makers) and they will happily take your money, but a minority of them won't even send you the product! I have had customers come to me with the "upmost caution" and all guns blazing when buying lights from our online store, because the last dealer they got them from did not even send them their products, and on top of that, they would not answer any support emails or phone calls from these people, so they lost their money. So the lesson here is, be sure that the website owner you're buying the neon lights from is reputable and has FULL Company & contact details displayed on their website should things turn bad.

Our team of dedicated Market & Product Researcher's from All-Neon-Car-Lights.com, have spent an enormous amount of time & money installing neon car lights from a variety of manufacturers, and as a result after all this testing, we only recommend the brand names above for quality neon car lighting kits. We also found after this extensive testing was carried out, that PlasmaGlow had the best, all round car lighting products on the market today, outlasting and out-performing other products in every aspect.

So when it's time for you to actually purchase your Neon Car Lights, make sure you ask the dealer these three questions to prevent you from getting burnt...

1) Does the kit come with all the necessary installation hardware, components and instructions?

2) Does the kit come with a Lifetime Warranty like PlasmaGlow offers for example? And will they ship products for free during a warranty claim? Ask this in case you get your lights and they are not working due to a factory fault, and...

3) Who are the manufacturers of the light kits? If the kit is not a big brand name maker, but has a Warranty with it and all components in the kit, then this could be a quality kit to purchase, but that is something your going to have decide and take a chance on.

Finally, if your purchasing neon car lights online, be sure to check that the dealer has their FULL contact details listed on their website so you can contact them by phone to ensure their validity.

Hopefully this Article has inspired you to take your time when choosing your car lighting accessories, and it has made you aware of what to look out for when buying them. What ever this article has done for you, just be sure to have a good one, and enjoy your neon car lights at all times.

Car Interior and Floor Mats

Posted: Monday, February 14, 2011


By Farah N


It is a common fact that when you purchase a car the first thing that you include in the list of accessories is the mat for your car. It is very important to have expensive floor mats inside your costly car. They provide protection and security to your car. They also help to keep your car looking great.

Nowadays vehicles are very expensive. The people who want to keep their car interior as presentable as exterior, they like to use floor mats in their cars. Floor mats help in keeping the interior clean and collect all dust, extra water and grease. This dirt usually enters through shoes and spoils the interior very badly. So, different parts of the vehicle can be cleaned with the help of these mats. On the other hand if we do not use floor mats, the interior can easily get dirty and become soiled and stained.

It usually happens that when you go for some vehicle which is very expensive as well then you prefer these mats so that it looks great for a long time. So, if you want to keep the inside of your car tidy and clean then you should have these mats. However, many people overlooked this essential item in their cars.

An essential thing to remember is that it is very expensive to take your car daily to workshop for its service. However, on the other hand if you keep your car neat and clean then there will be no need to take it on regular basis to the workshop. This will also help you to save a great amount of money.

As mentioned above, mats are always overlooked or under estimated. So, always pay great heed to them to offer protection and security to your car. Moreover, try to select mats according to the interior and color of your car. Obviously, it will not only suit your car but also give your car an impressive and amazing look.

Tips on Purchasing Your First Car

Posted: Friday, February 11, 2011


By Dan Bodrero


Buying your first car is not a simple task, though no doubt it is an exciting experience. Like passing your driver's test and getting your own driver's license, owning a car is a rite of passage, a coming-of-age experience. There are a lot of factors to consider when picking a car including: the vehicle's age (brand new or pre-owned?) and its state (would you like to keep it as it is or make some changes to its seat covers, steering wheels, rims, and floor mats before you officially take it on the road?).

Unless you own a bank account like that of the Sultan of Saudi Arabia, you can forget owning a Lamborghini or a Vanquish with an expensive set of dashboard covers for your first set of wheels. There are several names of car makers out there whose brand new models are affordable and don't require you to rob a bank. If you're a teenager in college or high school, it is best that you stick with a car salesman with a good reputation and solid experience. They can help a lot in the buying and registering processes, including getting insurance quotes and policies, total assessment, and even customization of seat covers and other accessories.

Another thing you should look for in your first car is its safety features, from air bags to antilock brakes. A car loaded with a lot of safety measures is probably worth paying a little extra more particularly for first time drivers who are more accident prone, even if the car's accessories such as floor mats or stereo system are less extravagant.

The engine is also an element. If you plan to use it on long distance trips, a diesel engine is a good way to go. For multiple yet short trips within the city, a car running on petrol engine is the logical and economical option. If you are living in a city, a two-wheel drive is all you need. If you drive through dirt roads, rocky trails, and almost all kinds of uneven terrain, 4-wheel drive is a necessity .

If buying a used car, better check the vehicle's history and paperwork such as mileage, maintenance schedules, and its interiors such as the state of the upholstery to see if you need to buy new dashboard covers or seat covers, and the quality of the sound to see if it's worth the price. If you don't agree with the asking price, try to see if you can lower it to a better price. If a dealer is not very willing to show the car's record, then cut the deal off. You should also check the chassis and engine numbers and match them with the dealer's documents, as well as the owner's insurance records.

Of course, you have to check the car for dings and bent bumpers and smashed headlights before going for a test drive. When doing test runs, see if the brakes and buttons are functioning properly. Also scrutinize how the car feels; some of the signs you should look out for is unnecessary vibrations and faulty handling.

Whether you are buying a brand new car or a used one, make sure you can afford to pay it off in 48 months. If you can't get it in 48 months, then look for another. Buying something you can't afford has a lot of adverse consequences.

While it is mostly true that owning a car enables a person to do a lot of things, it also entails financial responsibilities and obligations. Keeping things in balance however, can help a car owner enjoy his new car.

How to Make Your Neon Car Lights look the Part!

Posted: Tuesday, February 8, 2011


By Antonio T Gabellone


It's one thing to grab a set of neon car lights and whack them on your vehicle, expecting them to work great, but the fact is, because you rushed the job to show your friends tonight, now their not working for some reason and there appears to be sparks flying out from under the dash, and on top of that, now your car won't start because you've shorted out the ignition! But on the other hand, as an experienced auto mechanic by trade and owner of All-Neon-Car-Lights.com I can tell you that if you only take your time when doing any kind of car customising, the end results will look so much better and they will work more efficiently too then if you just rush it.

When it comes to gaining optimal performance from of your neon car lights, its best when installing them to consider the amount of glow that the light tubes are going to emit so as to be sure that nothing is going to block out the glow of the tubes. Meaning if your installing under car lights, then you'll want the tubes to be mounted "level" with the under carriage of the vehicle and not positioned too far up inside the under carriage where it will block most of the potential glow from your tubes, and also not to far down or else you'll loose the tubes on high ground if you have a low car.

Also, many of the under car kits have special mounting brackets that allow you to "rotate" the tubes so you can direct the glow where you want. For example, you may want the glow to be directed straight towards the ground, or you may want to direct the light towards the outside of the vehicle, so that the glow is actually wider then the car. These neon car lights and their brackets have been made like this for that reason, so be sure to utilize them for best performance.

For the interior car lights, well... only the limit of your imagination can stop you here! However, it's always good to mount these tubes in locations where they will not get repeatedly kicked or broken from people that get in and out of your vehicle and that they will not interfere with you while you're driving. That includes any interior tubes that may be mounted at the back of the car that could reflect in the "rear view" mirror at night, preventing you from seeing behind you because of the glare.

Another good point to remember when installing your neon car lights for the best all round performance, is to "solder" all the wiring joints (if this is required for your type of installation) and seal the joints with duck tape or similar insulation tape to ensure a good connection and to prevent a voltage drop at connection point. If you hurry too much with the install and you only "twirl" the wires together, as a result, your neon lights will end up being too dull in brightness or even worse, they could cause a fire.

Speaking of dull, unfortunately, some colors, whether you get LED or neon tubes, are naturally already dull due to the light color. Some of these colors include pink, aqua, and amber to name a few, so be sure to keep this in mind when choosing your desired color weather it be for the interior or exterior car lighting.

One other major tip, and one that's often forgotten about when a person wants the best performance from their neon car lights, is if you've got neon under car lights, then over time, the tubes under the vehicle are going to get very dirty due to water, dirt, grease, oil and grime that comes off the roads, which in turn, blocks the glow of the lights. So when ever your meeting your friends out one night to show off your cool rides, always make it a habit to clean the tubes under the car when you wash your vehicle, that way, they will always be running at optimal brightness.

Many of the online dealers for major Manufactures of neon car lights such as Plasmaglow, Streetglow, Liteglow and numerous other quality car light accessory makers will deliver the goods when it comes to best all round quality, durability and performance. However, be warned, if it's not a big brand name neon car light product, then you may be asking for trouble due to the lack of quality in some of the kit components, but this too, is not always the case.

Hopefully these few little tips have inspired you to take your time when installing your car lighting accessories, or to maybe give your existing neon or LED car lights an overhaul to bring them alive again. What ever it is that this article has done for just, just be sure to have a good one, and enjoy your neon car lights at all times.

It does not matter whether your car is cheap or expensive or ill maintained or well maintained. You need to install some car accessories that would make the experience of driving, a very pleasurable one. External car accessories and internal car accessories are the two categories of car accessories. Floor mars, custom dash covers, seat covers fog lights and air perfumes are examples of car accessories. It is insufficient to simply purchase a car and then equip it with no accessories. More examples of accessories include car wheel covers, body covers, ice and snow accessories and gas caps.

They would do anything to purchase original accessories. If that is you, you need to go to the showroom which will have all the accessories that you need to equip your car. If not, then an accessory shop could be your best bet. If you are not into the fad of originality, then purchasing them from retailers is definitely a better option as the cost is lower. No matter where you purchase the accessories from, it is vital to decorate your car with them.

The definition of accessories for cars can be 'necessary add-ons'. They help to categorize exterior and interior accessories. Increasing the performance of the car is the role that is played by the add-ons. They also go a long way in attracting the attention of the passers-by. The products that give your car, a whole new looks are the car accessories. If you compromise on them, you are compromising on everything that will make the car look better.

The security part of the car cannot be ignored. If you live in a region where a lot of fog reigns in the winter, then fog lights, are a must. If you live a region where winters are quite harsh, then buying snow and ice accessories will prove to be beneficial. You should never compromise on your safety and buying car accessories thus becomes important. Your own comfort level will be enhanced if you use accessories like car wheel covers, seat covers and body covers. You must have purchased the car after toiling a lot at your work right? If yes, isn't it your moral responsibility to furnish it right?

There is another important reason why you should choose to buy car accessories. Buying safety car accessories will reduce the annual maintenance of your precious car. It may also help you to reduce the cost of insurance. You should know that a substandard accessory is likely to do more harm that good. It could affect the way you feel and the way you drive. Your security may also be threatened. Moreover you may need to go to the shop and purchase the accessories more frequently.
