Avoid having to charge your phone at the next gas station (or ask for directions) and make sure you always have a USB adapter in your car. With this gadget you won't be surprised.
Whether you’re on your way to an important meeting, taking a road trip with friends, or simply running errands, this simple car gadget can make the difference between peace of mind and a last-minute search for a charging station.

You can scrub your car from top to bottom, but sometimes the solution is simpler: car perfume . With car perfume you can freshen up your car within minutes.
Four sprays are often enough. Soon you will have a smell in your car of freshly hung laundry, a sweet apple, a fresh ocean breeze or a charming male/female perfume. That will be a lot of fresh rides, which is nice for your fellow passengers!
