Cool accessories for your cars?

My 2021 m5c is currently at port in Bremerhaven. There's not much I can do now but wait for her arrival and browse the web looking for stuff to add to the car. Came across these. Any one have experience with them or have any cool or useful accessories You recommend?

1. Screen protector for navigation: LFOTPP Tempered Glass Navigation Infotainment Center Touch Screen Protector for 2018 BMW 5 Series G30 530e M550i 10.2-Inch Screen,Anti-Scratch High Clarity https://www.amazon.com/dp/B071XM7F1K..._SFUkFb248SZHQ
2. Screen protector for instrument panel: https://www.aliexpress.com/i/4000814239544.html
3. Carbon fiber key case: https://www.rgsportshop.com/index.ph...roduct_id=1100

im considering a dashcam. does that count?

leaning toward the Thinkware U1000 which i can mostly mount in the shaded part to the right of the mirror. The only thing sticking down would be the lens, so pretty discrete.

Respectfully, I don't really like those screen savers. I think it's going to make your vehicle look cheap. Both screens you're trying to protect are very durable already and I don't think you need it. The car key case looks nice, but keep in mind it's going to make the key bulky. I'd go with any carbon accessories you can do to the exterior - mirrors, kidney grill, side vents, etc. r33_RGSport has a lot of selection.

Good points. Never used these before. I figured it would help with dust and scratches, especially the instrument cluster.

Looks like our 2021s have built in drive recorder. Essentially a 360 degree dash cam!

yes but from my research, its only a few minutes at a time. it does not continuously record and all that, from the perspective of being able to have, say, a 2 hour drive recorded.

it also knows when theres an accident and saves video automatically.

it is there, but not quite like a 3rd party one

I ordered the carbon fiber key holder. It will go well with the new carbon fiber gas cap that I will be getting. LOL.

Audi includes this collapsible storage trunk organizer. Just picked up the BMW one. Perfect for golf shoes if you’re sick of sand/grass getting into your trunk.
