- Yo, we're back and we're going back to a video
you guys really liked that we made back in 2020,
but we got to keep your car looking good and feeling good.
So we're making a updated list
to some of the best interior mods
for your car.
(intense synth music)
All right, now look me in the eyes.
You, me,
we're making a pact right here, right now
that we're going to have our cars ready for 2022.
We're going to have our mods done during spring,
we're not going to break (bleep) when we're installing it,
and we're going to get the good stuff the first time, there.
Now you have to, it's a blood oath. A blood oath.
A blood oath.
Blood oats.
And I'm gonna make sure you follow through.
Don't forget wheels, tires, suspension
over at fitmentindustries.com.
And if you're still working on the exterior of your car,
that's the place to go.
But let's hop in to the interior. (chuckles)
Interior.
Last year, we talked about shift knobs,
short throw shifters, aftermarket seats,
and vinyl wrapping your interior.
But what else do we got?
Let's start on the cheaper side,
because if you're anything like me
your car already takes every cent you own
and we're pinching pennies.
I know the feeling.
Tint.
Tint is such an easy mod
to change your car's appearance completely.
But what a lot of people who haven't tinted a car before
don't realize is how much functionality it actually has.
Also cops.
I don't think cops understand because a quick disclaimer,
check your state's legal tint limit.
It's probably (bleep).
It's usually somewhere between crystal clear
and slightly less crystal clear.
So keep in mind a lot of times tint can get you pulled over.
In my experience,
I run 15% to 20% all around on my cars
with 50% on the windshield.
That's the money for me, what looks good, I like it.
And I really haven't got bugged too often.
But that's because I never drive that car in the streets.
It's only for off-road use.
Anyway, now that it's out of the way,
tint is a mod that can help reduce
the heat in your car drastically
if you have to park your car outside.
They make different grades that can get more pricey,
but help more with the sun as well.
When I first did this I thought, yeah, sure,
It will help with the sun.
Yeah, of course, yeah. A little sales tactic.
but it actually does, a lot.
In addition, if you really want to risk it for the biscuit
and don't care about getting pulled over,
I think mirror tent can be pulled off extremely well
when done right
and comes in some insane colors.
But you gotta be careful
because you can go from nicer to ricer very quick with this.
But it's your car, do what you want,
and tell the cops I told you not to do it.
Next up on the list is aftermarket gauges.
Okay, for a second, let's be real.
Me, you, car people in general, we like gauges.
It makes us feel like we're driving a F1 fighter jet
when in reality we're driving a 1.8T economy box
pushing eight pounds of boost.
But seeing that eight pounds of boost on the needle
is (bleep) cool so that's why it's here.
So there's literally a million options out there
for aftermarket gauges.
And not only that,
your car probably has some specific mounts.
so this is a bonus interior mod.
Bonus. (mimics bells)
Check out what's available for your platform.
I know Volkswagens and some other makes have mounts
that can replace your vent and look super clean and subtle.
There's A pillar mounts, steering wheel mounts,
and custom mounts to put them wherever you want.
Ones that I like to go with that are typically pretty useful
to see our boost if you're boosted.
I swear if you put a boost gauge in your NA car
I'm gonna tell you to get the (bleep) out of my swamp.
Get the (bleep) out of my swamp!
Air-fuel ratio and oil pressure.
There's a ton of options for what you can put in,
but these are a few basic solid ones.
Go check them out and see what best fits your needs
or your car's, probably your car's,
'cause I know it's got a little bit of issues.
Now a couple of decent brands to check out,
because no, you shouldn't get the ones off Wish
for 20 cents and a can of soda.
First off, AEM.
Now this is going to be a little pricey
but they are tried and true with great quality.
I've ran AEM gauges personally and never had an issue
with fitment, quality, or having them crap out on me.
The final one I'll mention if you want to be
a little more flashy with some color options
and I've also personally ran in my Cobalt SS back in the day
is Prosport Evo gauges.
They have a dope start-up animation which is fun
and they come in multiple colors,
and they're just some good, clean fun.
The lights, it's fun.
The last thing I'm going to touch on today is a good one.
Car audio.
I'm not sure if there's a better feeling in the world
cruising alone or with your friends in the car
and blasting your favorite music.
That all can be quickly ruined
by your cars (bleep) stock speakers that you blew out
listening to that Taylor swift song that was low key fire
but you only blast it when you're by yourself.

♪ Getting back together ♪
- Upgrading your car speakers can change the game.
And with that, I'd probably upgrade your head unit.
A double din deck can really give your car's interior
not only a better look,
but help by adding Bluetooth and some other features
your 90s or early 2000s car you picked up doesn't have.
Generally, installation is fairly simple
as long as you watch a YouTube video
and have all the right connectors.
Some decent brands to look out for are Pioneer,
Kenwood, Sony, and a bunch more.
If you think cheaping out is okay, don't do it.
Finally, the addition of a subwoofer
can really be a great move.
And I'm not talking about putting in a wall,
adding 215s so you can do a hair trick with your friends.
I mean, unless you're into that type of thing.
More power to you,
do whatever the hell you want to your car.
But something as simple as one eight, 10, or 12 inch sub
can make the absolute world of a difference
and really add a lot.
With this though comes the amp, the sub box, the wiring,
and it's a little more involved.
But nothing buddies with some food and drinks
can't hook up in a day.
There's a ton you can do to your car's interior,
and generally it seems like a lot of people focus
on the exterior.
But to have a truly great car build
you should focus on both aspects
along with some performance too.
Get (indistinct).
The interior car is where you personally
are going to spend the most time,
so why wouldn't you spice it up?
But what are some interior mods I didn't bring up
that you love?
Comment down below, I'm going to read every single one.
I mean it, try me.
Seriously, try me. You guys don't think I'm real?
I'm gonna read 'em.
And again, don't forget to check out Fitment Industries
if you're looking for wheels, tires, or suspension.
We're one of the few places that will mount, balance,
and ship your wheels for free
so you don't have to go through the hassle
of going to the mom and pop shop
and trying to argue with them why 215s on a nine and a half
is the correct size you were going for
and you didn't order the wrong tire sets.
We're not gonna do that.
We'll just send them to ya, all right.
That's all I got.
