Accessories for your 2017 Toyota Corolla

While it’s true that Toyotas are already pretty tricked out with great technology and safety features, there are always new gadgets coming along. Peruzzi Toyota in Hatfield, PA wants their customers to know about these cool “toys” to make your ride even sweeter. THE SMART DASH CAM: While Toyota offers plenty of safety features like a pre-collision warning system and lane-departure assist, accidents can still happen. If one does, this dash cam captures all the details of what happened. It features emergency recording, night vision and evidence protection. SHARK HANDVAC 2.0 HANDHELD VACUUM: From snack crumbs to beach sand, messes happen. This lightweight, cordless vacuum is perfect for quickly tidying up the inside of your Peruzzi Toyota. MACCALLY CUP HOLDER TRAY: Instead of juggling your burger on your lap, use this to make your fast-food meal a little more civilized. This neat little tray has an extension that fits into the cupholder and can swivel. It even has a slot for your phone so you can watch videos while chowing down. USB HEATED BLANKET: It’s always a good idea, especially in colder months, to have a blanket in the car for emergencies. This one takes it to another level with a heating component that plugs into the USB port of your Peruzzi Toyota. It comes with three cozy heating levels and a timer function. NORSHIRE TIRE INFLATOR: Tire pressure can change due to temperature shifts and other road conditions. When you’re nowhere near a gas station, this powerful, compact little device will come in handy to get your tires back to peak pressure. APPLE AIR TAGS: If you’re the type who loses their keys or other important items, Apple Air Tags to the rescue. These high-tech tags allow you to track them down through either an iPhone or a MacBook. Just pop them on and connect them to the app. With the exception of the Air Tags (available at the Apple Store), all of these other fun gadgets can be found on Amazon.

When you think about it, your windshield is the “eye” of your car. Consider the wiper blades the part that keeps that eye seeing clearly. We take wipers for granted, but we shouldn’t. Peruzzi Toyota in Hatfield, PA has some tips on keeping this device at peak efficiency – and it’s a simple maintenance task you can do in minutes. When your wiper blades start to fail, you’ll experience more streaks and smears that wreck your vision (and at some point, no amount of wiper fluid will help). That could wind up costing you big – as in a fender bender. Replacing them is easier than ever; most blades today can be installed in minutes without any special tools. Even the least mechanically minded among us can remove the old ones and slip on the new ones in about 10 minutes. It’s a good idea to go for quality blades. You don’t have to choose the priciest ones, but wiper blades made of higher-grade materials will perform better and last longer. You’ll find that they’re quieter and smoother, which seems like a little thing – but over time, you’ll appreciate that added comfort during your ride. Of course, sturdy new wiper blades will improve visibility during the most difficult weather conditions. That’s mission-critical for the safety of both you and your passengers. So now that you’ve replaced them, what can you do to get the most from your new wiper blades? First, know that (depending on weather conditions) the average lifespan of blades is anywhere from six to nine months. Make them last as long as possible by never running them on a dry windshield (that awful squeaking sound…yikes!). If you can’t garage your car during snow or ice storms, reposition the blades by pointing them up. On that same note, warm up your windshield before you start scraping off any ice/snow; that’ll give your blades a helping hand. Changing your wiper blades regularly is easier than changing your oil or rotating your tires --and just as important. Give yours a once-over today!

The 2018 Toyota Corolla has long been the go-to choice for anyone seeking a great compact car.  The Corolla gets points for its fuel efficiency and reliability, and you can see all that up close at Peruzzi Toyota. You can also get a look at the stylish accessories available to customize your own Corolla. On the outside, Body Side Moldings can be installed. They’re compression-fitted to the door and exactly matched to the paint finish. Best of all, they’ll give your 2018 Toyota Corolla extra protection from things like runaway shopping carts, harsh door swings from other cars and the everyday dings your car faces. Similarly, available Mud Guards protect your paint finish from the damage caused by kicked-up road debris. Toyota's Paint Protection Film acts like a nearly invisible suit of armor, guarding the exterior against chips, scratching and yellowing. Your car will stay new looking for years. You can also add the color-keyed Rear Wind Deflector for some snazzy aerodynamic style. Keep the inside of your 2018 Toyota Corolla up to par with available All-Weather Floor Mats. The  ribbed-channel design holds fast to dirt, mud, and moisture, and keeps the original carpet looking new. If, like many drivers, you find your trunk or backseat a little too overflowing with “stuff,” the soft-sided Cargo Tote is a neat solution. It keeps all kinds of items safely stored in one place, and collapses when not in use. The 2018 Toyota Corolla has a great infotainment system.  Enhance it with the Universal Tablet Holder which securely holds a phone, tablet or other devices.  It can be installed and removed in seconds without using tools and easily adjusts for optimal viewing. These are just a sample of some of the best accessories available for your 2018 Toyota Corolla.
