Cheap nice upgrades under $50

[shadowhawk]

yeah, I paid $22 for my knob covers. The largest one seemed to be just slightly loose but the smaller 2 fit nice and tight. We're still talking knob covers for the truck right, cuz my first sentence sure didn't seem like it

I am always on a search for low cost items to give my vehicles a upscale look. My 13 Outdoorsman QC has ok interior, but always looking to make it better. Here are a couple things I did lately ordered already. There is not many things for these Rams, carbon fiber I found also, but being the interior is gray, black, chrome, brushed and silver theme, these items seemed to look better than carbon fiber. Knobs cost me $11 shipped, the bezels for doors cost $22 shipped for the set, the seat covers were slightly over the $50 limit I posted (they cost $55 each(set is $110). Center console cover(neoprene) was under $20. Let's see some upgrades that are low cost, but makes a impact. Also, it's not interior but antenna was $12 And I added a fakra universal antenna booster for $9. Made about a 30% difference in radio reception. (My radio is not the 13 one, I have a ra3 stock 8.4 non nav radio, but upgraded to a 15 ra4 nav radio.

Amazon or direct from Rough Country.

Wow! It has an "exclusive position for storing glasses"! Product descriptions direct from China are funny.

I did the radio bezel/ HVAC knob covers too. The big centre on for the fan speed is a bit looser than the other two but you can tighten up the fit with the two sided tape that comes with it.

Also did the door lock covers, the seat belt pads, the 50 Cal Antenna, & the grab bar pads.

These accessories are really affordable and great quality for the price.

 

[rotwiler]

Oh oh, now I want the grab bar covers! Get the $10 fakra antenna booster I posted, it works and makes reception about 30-40% better. I also have that console insert, is nice for storage.

 

[rotwiler]

The console insert is like $13 shipped on aliexpress and there is like 4 styles, all pretty similar and within a $1 of each other. If you need the foam cup holders for doors that oem cost like $30-40 each, you can buy 2 for less than 1/2 the price of 1. As I find more items that are cheap and useful I will post more. Also I seen replacement inserts for the console cup holders for under $5 shipped for 2. There is lots of carbon fiber stuff that looks really good for the 19 up trucks.

 

[rotwiler]

I have the rebel style grill on my truck with the 3 amber LEDs, found white ones for under $10 for all 3, they were wired pos and neg wrong so I just switched sides.

 

[rotwiler]

Are these handle covers like yours? Hard to find on Ali, had to put in roof handle covers.

 

[rotwiler]

Found random seat belt pads, the mopar ones above are on there, but here are other options. I really like the leather flap ones but it has red sticking and won't match anything in my truck. Last one is embroidered, but over time, I don't think will hold up.

 

[rotwiler]

Seen these on amazon, not metal, they say abs plastic, but is for 15+ Challenger so will fit the Ram fine. These cost $29 though, haven't looked much for lower price sellers. Same price on Aliexpress, the carbon looking ones are $36. I want to do misc carbon fiber interior things, but I want it balanced. The steering wheel piece another posted earlier in thread, would look good, then these knob covers, but I need to find a couple other pieces to balance it. I can add the carbon fiber look seat belt pad. Need to find door piece to spread out the cf look. Wish I had a Challenger, found about anything carbon fiber you could think of on Ali and cheap. I own a 2010 ss Camaro and they just came out with real cf pieces for the interior, but to do center console, door switch cover, around gauges bezel and a piece to accent cup holders is like $110. The 2019 Rams they have many nice cf pieces, door switch cover, seat switch cover, a cover over the radio bezel that also covers hvac knobs, door handle replacement bezel that goes behind the door handle and replaces the cheap plastic one.

 

[rotwiler]

Here's some cf pieces for the 19+ Ram.

 

[rotwiler]

And. Plus they have the seat adjustment covers. All those would be a nice balance. Price gets up there, but think it would be a good combo.

Ya that's the brand (Encell). I got the all black ones (black stitching accents) like the picture you posted. They are great quality leatherette. Some people have complained that you can spin them on the handle but they only attach by velcro so what do you expect. I got mine from AliExpress. They were on Amazon as well but way more money.

Mine are the metal ones with the knurling on them. They are very good quality and a cheaper option to have a look at.

I seen sellers on Ali that sell the seat belt pad and will put any custom writing/emblem etc on them. They cost around $15 a pair. I might come up with something different for that, price is pretty good for a custom one. They look just like the carbon ones above. Was thinking maybe Hemi or Outdoorsman, or ?

Hey rotwiler, have you found any cover trim options for the chrome trim I've red arrowed in this generic pic? It's the only part of the interior of my Sport I'd like to do something with.

Yes, I did see some, was irritated because wasn't correct for my 13 Ram. Will post where I found it once I find it again. ali uses words like sticker etc instead of bezel or trim, so have to get creative with words when searching.

 

[rotwiler]

Switch covers arrived, they match the silver in my 13 and fit perfect.
