Top Ten Mind-Blowing Custom Car Interiors
Don’t you just love Google? We do too, which is why we’ve spent ages searching the most mind-blowing custom car interiors around the web to bring you some awesome ideas! Check out our top ten faves for some inspiration to make the most of your car’s interior.
Whether you’re just popping to the local shops or travelling across state and country, car journeys don’t have to be tedious – there’s so many ways you can customize your car with cool, useful and innovative features to really get the best out of your drive no matter the make or model of your car.
1 – Never worry about getting lost, ever again!
Custom Feature: In-car Sat Nav System
If you’ve got a sense of adventure and love driving to new unknown destinations, or just simply want hassle-free driving, then Sat Nav is the must have gadget for you. The latest sat nav systems offer much more than a map and instructions; they offer useful journey information, such as your estimated time of arrival, how many miles are left to your destination, traffic hotspots and speed cameras too.
2 – Makin’ shapes
Custom Feature: Fibreglass dashboard
If you love to customize and update your car as a hobby, then why not give making your own fiberglass dash a go? Working with fiberglass is extremely versatile and allows you to create shapes and structures that can’t be easily done with wood and panel board alone, giving your car interior a completely bespoke and unique finish.
3 – All about that bass, about that bass (no treble!)
Custom Feature: Fibreglass subwoofer enclosure
Just like the custom dash above, fiberglass can be a very versatile material to customise your car interiors yourself, as it’s really easy to work with. Using fiberglass for your subwoofer enclosures gives the overall finish a customised, unique look and improves the overall sound quality of your speaker system whilst also making the best use of the space you have. Check out this cool Youtube video on how to fibreglass your subwoofer enclosure in any car.
4 – To infinity, and beyond!
Custom Feature: Custom steering wheel

Now. This. Is. Cool. It might look a little space age, but this is a custom steering wheel from a 2012 Honda EV-STER which uses what Honda calls “Twin Lever Steering,” with two joystick-like handles that pivot forward and backwards. Who say’s steering wheels must be round? This amazing design is sure to catch attention and we’re pretty sure it’ll appeal to the gamers out there too!
5 – Bring the cinema to your car
Custom Feature: Built-in DVD Headrest System
Perfect for road trips or just impressing your homies, TV’s in the headrest are one of those items you won’t regret customizing your car with. You’re a great host at home – so why not be one in your car? Keep yourself and your passengers entertained on any length of journey! Tailored to fit the vast majority of car makes and models, DVD player headrest systems come in a variety of sizes, shapes and colours. If you need some inspiration in choosing the right DVD Headrest Player for your needs, download our handy “Ultimate Guide to Headrest DVD Players” (hint, it’s free!)
6 – Get leathered
Custom Feature: Leather seats
If your hot rod doesn’t come with leather seats as standard, fear not, you can upgrade your car interiors yourself to give a feel of premium luxury. And you don’t have to opt for just plain black either – why not make like a Mercedes Viano (pictured above) and go fireglow red? Red interiors are sure to make your ride stand out for all the right reasons!
7 – Use textures
Custom Feature: Animal print trims
As with the leather interior above, another way to custom your car is to add bits of texture such as croc or snake print. The tactile feel of the patterned trim on a steering wheel or seat adds a real sense of luxury to any car interior.
8 – I’ll take mine on ice please!
Custom feature: Portable fridge
How convenient would it be to grab a nice ice-cold coke from your own in-car fridge? You can do just that with a portable or built-in fridge that sits nicely inside your car’s front or rear console.
9 – Just one touch is all it takes
Custom feature: Touch screen head units
Touch screen head units have larger screens making them much easier to read than the 2- or 3-line displays of typical car head units. You’ll enjoy being able to read more information with bigger icons, and easily navigate through menus making a more satisfying car audio experience. You’ll be able to keep your eyes on the road instead of squinting at your display; and the elegance of touchscreen control makes it easy and fun to use. In fact, everything you do with your head unit is easier when you have a large, touchscreen interface!

10 – Centre of the (car’s) universe
Custom Feature: Custom Centre Console
The centre console is the bit that includes the control-bearing surfaces in the middle of the front of your car’s interior. It’s getting more and more common to customize your centre console and add useful additional storage compartments, cup holders, controls, audio item, phone holders – and even a fridge!
