Ways To Make Your Car Interior A Haven by Immune1(m): 6:54am On Jan 09, 2013
As you explore factors and features which can help you create that car interior haven you desire, one advice you shouldn't fail to heed to is that,‘for your car interior to even come close to being your haven, it has to be an extension of your home’. This means creating a haven in your car cabin entails re-creating a home in your car; hence making it a mobile home. Below is just how to go about this.

Buy the right car: the easiest way to achieve this is to shop for cars with key features that appeal to you. Factors to have in mind are adequate leg-room, standard gadgets, condition of seats, etc. With all these taken care you have very few things to worry about. Recent cars are built for best passenger comfort in mind, hence you can’t go wrong taking out time to sort out the right kind of car to buy with your key features and needs in mind.

Use wind shield covers: ideally these UV (ultra-violent)-rays protectors are meant for extended parking, but if where you park your car on a daily basis leaves your car vulnerable to excessive sunlight and heat penetration, you might want to consider these protectors. The commonly available ones are made of aluminium foils and can be clipped unto the inner portion of your wind-screen. It can save you a whole lot of issues which were brought up in this article: http://www.autobaseafrica.com/the-use-of-air-conditioners-a-health-hazard/.

Use air-conditioners: make sure you take advantage of your car’s air-conditioner to maintain favourable cabin temperatures and better filtration of the air that finds its way into your car. To ensure optimum operation of this HVAC (heat, ventilation and air-conditioning) device, get your air vents cleaned up on a regular basis, check your air-filter condition (and replace if more than 2 years) ; before you look into more complex technical areas like refrigerant level, compressor or condenser state if need be.
Use air-fresheners: the most affordable and the most practical way to create a haven in your car interior is to ensure you drive away odour and unpleasant smell; with the right air-freshener, this is very possible. If you opt for air-fresheners attachable to air-vents, ensure you power-up your air-conditioners or else the nice fragrance won’t diffuse at the rate it should for your car to stay freshened up.

Get a Vacuum cleaner and use it:the underlying moral here is to keep your car interior clean at all cost using these electric-powered suction cleaners which are capable of accessing very intricate portions of your car interior; especially the floor area. There are different kinds of vacuum cleaners with a range of capabilities and methods of powering them, hence be sure you get the best value for your money.

Park your vehicle around well tarred or on concrete floors: as a way of avoiding moist you have to be very careful about where you pack your vehicle. Shoes easily pick up dirt/moist when stepped on muddy grounds, it becomes a problem when these same shoes stay put for hours in your car. If a good parking spot isn't quite an option you might consider frequently cleaning and drying you car floor and don’t fail to use floor mats.

Unleash your Cravings: for me its music. The moment you get to appreciate how much you need to create a great cabin ambiance is when you are hopelessly stuck in traffic-a conditions that is almost inevitable these days in densely populated cities like Lagos and Abuja. So what are your real cravings? For some it might be watching movies, getting a seat massage or maybe setting up a mini-office space; whatever the case might be, ensure you have it well figured out to make driving or being in the car less boring.

Have specific arrangements: avoid scattering things all over the place. There isn't much to say here, if you have a messy car interior you would always be looking forward to moments away from your car.

I guess it's a typo, but it's ultra-violet. Nice piece though.
