Gifts for your coworker who just got a new car

A few weeks ago, your coworker’s car was declared beyond repair. It has been so tough on them – bumming rides to the office and grabbing an Uber when no one was available to help. What a pain! They have actively been checking getacar.com, and finally found the perfect ride – a canary yellow midsized beauty, with four doors and a spacious trunk. 

Getting a new car is so exciting! There are perfect gift ideas on this list to show your coworker how happy you are for them.

There will be times when your coworker will need a second battery in their vehicle. For example, a second battery will come in handy when they need to hook up devices that require power (such as their laptop, phone, or speakers) while the car is off, and don’t want to drain the car battery. That’s where this awesome auxiliary battery wiring kit can make all the difference between an enjoyable excursion and being stuck with a flat car battery when it’s time for them to head home. This wiring kit can help them to install a second battery in their car that is isolated from the car battery, leaving the car battery to do the job it was intended for – starting the car!
This dashboard cover helps to prolong the life of the dashboard by protecting it against harmful UV rays, heat, dirt, and scratches, and hides existing blemishes. It will also reduce windshield glare. Its design makes it incredibly easy to install: Just put it directly on the dashboard and that’s it! It is custom-tailored to fit the vehicle’s make, model, year, and configuration, and hugs the contours of the dashboard giving the car’s interior a stylish new look. This cover is made from polyester fabric that is sourced from recycled bottles. Please note that this is only compatible with the Nissan Altima Sedan Coupe (2007 – 2012).
Occasionally, it will be necessary for your coworker to add fluids to their car. These funnels will be so handy when the oil is running low or they are out of washer fluid. They come in a three-pack allowing there to be a designated funnel for each type of fluid, preventing what could be disastrous cross-contamination! They are leak-free, barrier-free, and spill-free, and the flexible wide neck allows them to be used at any angle.
Of course, your coworker will want to keep their car clean. In fact, they will probably be so excited about their new set of wheels that their car stays cleaner than their office! These trash cans were specifically made for the car, and were designed for use with plastic grocery bags so there’s no need to purchase separate liners! They have magnetic closures on the lids helping to prevent spills, and even have large mesh pockets on both sides, which provide a spot for storing extra liners or other cleaning supplies.
So many things can affect tire pressure, including time and even temperature. Proper tire pressure ensures that tires wear evenly, helping them to last longer while also making them safer. It can even improve gas mileage! This tire pressure gauge can be used on all types of vehicles, including cars and trucks. It was designed to last a lifetime and is so easy to use. This gauge can give your coworker peace of mind knowing that they can check their tire pressure without needing to stop at a gas station or tire repair store. This easy-to-read, accurate gauge comes with a pencil gauge that they can keep on their keychain and a digital guide showing ways to improve their gas mileage.

Getting a new car is a joyous occasion! These items can help your coworker to keep their car a bit cleaner and a little safer, making their ride to work each day that much more enjoyable, and you’ll finally be able to regain that extra 10 minutes of sleep since you won’t need to pick them up on the way to work anymore.
