Top 5 Car Accessories You Must Have During Monsoon Season

The monsoon season not only brings lush greenery to our surroundings, but it also brings in a whole list of problems to car owners, ranging from poor visibility to bad smell inside the car. To overcome these key problems, here are 5 must-have car accessories during the monsoon season.

Water Repellent Coating/Stickers

During the monsoon season, driving can be very tricky due to poor visibility caused by rain. This can be very dangerous as poor visibility could even lead to fatal accidents. So, in order to improve visibility, water repellent coatings can be applied. Also, water repellent stickers are available in the market for ORVMs as well.

Car Accessories During Monsoon Season

Rubber Mats

It is almost impossible to avoid mud during the monsoon season, and cleaning mud from the car can be a tedious process. As such, using rubber mats for the monsoon season will make cleaning a lot simpler. Also, rubber mats dry faster than fabric mats, ensuring your car is free from any odour and vastly reduces the chances of mould or any type of fungus growth.

Umbrella

It is best to keep an umbrella with you during the rainy season, as it significantly reduces the chance of you getting into the car drenched in rain. Also, getting inside the car with an umbrella is much more convenient than using a raincoat.

Pro Tip: Keep a plastic bag in your car to store the wet umbrella, and always ensure to keep the wet umbrella out to dry after reaching home.

Silica Gel Packs

The air during the monsoon season usually carries a lot more moisture. This could lead to a bad odour caused by the growth of bacteria, fungus, or mould. Using silica gel packets can reduce moisture from the air, and this will keep your car interior fresher for a longer period of time.

Slippers

During heavy rains, shoes can become wet and soggy. Driving with these shoes can sometimes be distracting, and it can also cause fungal infections in your feet. To avoid this, keeping a pair of slippers in the car could be very useful.

Pro Tip: Keep Emergency Light, Snacks, and Water in your car during monsoon season. Traffic jams during the monsoon season are becoming more and more common in Indian cities, and keeping the above-listed things can be very handy during such situations.
