Interior Accessories

What is in this category

This is the catch-all for cab hardware and trim that is not seating, floor protection or audio. Subcategories include interior grab bars and roll bar grab handles, dash panels and inserts, dash bezels, parking brake handle covers, sun visors, accelerator pedal pads, heater control knobs and entry guards. Some listings are factory-style replacements, such as steering column covers and accelerator pedals, and others are cosmetic or functional upgrades.

Function first

• Grab handles: help passengers brace on rough terrain and climb into a tall vehicle, and should bolt to a structural point such as a roll bar or A-pillar mount.
• Pedal pads: improve grip for wet boots, and need to be securely attached so they never slip.
• Entry guards: protect the sill from boots and scuffs.
• Phone cradles and dash mounts: hold a device within view for navigation, and should not block airbags or the driver's sight line.

Style and finish

Dash bezels, panels and handle covers are often offered in color-matched or contrasting finishes, such as anodized billet aluminum, powder-coated metal or molded plastic. Consider the climate, since dark surfaces get hot in the sun, and look for UV-stable materials that will not fade or crack. Billet metal parts can be cold in winter and hot in summer.

Fit and compatibility

Interior parts are shaped to the dash and door layout of a particular model and often to a range of model years. A Wrangler JK dash bezel will not match a TJ or JL. Confirm fitment for your exact year, make and model and trim level, because column, switch and control layouts changed between generations. For OEM-style replacement parts, compare the part number to the manufacturer's specifications.

Installation notes

Most interior accessories install with basic hand tools and trim tools. Take care around airbags: do not mount hardware over an airbag cover, and disconnect the battery before working near the steering column or dash wiring. Use the supplied hardware, avoid drilling into wiring runs and check that moving parts such as pedals and the parking brake operate fully after installing a cover or pad.

Quality and durability differ more in interior parts than many buyers expect. Look at the material and finish. Billet aluminum parts are strong but may need a clear coat to avoid staining, while molded plastic trim should be UV-stabilized to avoid fading in the sun. Powder-coated brackets resist chips better than paint. Check that screws are metal and well fitted, since plastic fasteners can crack when tightened.

Think about everyday comfort and use. If you take the doors or top off, interior parts see more sun, rain and dust, so choose water-resistant materials and avoid items that absorb moisture, such as untreated foam. Textured pedal pads help wet boots, but a pad that is too thick can crowd the brake. Take care to leave room around airbag modules, shifter boots and the steering column, and test every control through its full range after the install. For lifted or open-air vehicles, grab handles within easy reach of passengers make a noticeable difference on rough terrain, so confirm they are mounted to rated structural points and not trim panels.
