The right accessory can make a journey more organised, comfortable or convenient. The wrong purchase, however, may result in a phone holder that keeps coming loose, a screen that does not work with your smartphone or an inverter that becomes overloaded. When it comes to car accessories, it is therefore not just about price or appearance. Fit, connections and conditions of use matter most.
Pay particular attention to these three common pitfalls:
With a car phone holder, first decide where you want to position it: on the air vent, dashboard, windscreen or a mirror. An air-vent holder takes up little space, but may affect airflow. A suction cup offers greater flexibility, but generally works best on a clean, smooth surface.
Also check:
A magnetic car phone holder is quick to use, but a non-magnetic smartphone will usually need a metal ring or adapter. Thick metal cases can reduce the magnetic force.
For a wireless CarPlay display or Android Auto screen, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, the operating system and audio output are important considerations. Check whether your phone’s version is supported and whether your car has a free 12V socket. Not every screen uses the original infotainment unit; some models work as standalone displays with a built-in speaker, Bluetooth, FM transmitter or AUX.
For a 12V to 230V car inverter, look at three values:
According to BESTEK’s product information, the inverter in question has an output of 300W and a pure sine wave output. The same information states that many car sockets support a maximum of 150W. Do not use it for devices such as coffee makers, microwaves, hairdryers or irons if the combination exceeds the permitted load.
For a motorbike phone holder or motorcycle phone holder, vibration and secure fitting are more important than with everyday car use. Check the handlebar diameter, phone size and thickness including the case. A motorbike accessory should also be positioned so that it does not obstruct your view of the road or access to the controls.
For a car dashcam, check the following among other things:
A dashcam can record footage, but that does not automatically mean every recording may be shared without restrictions. If in doubt, check the applicable privacy rules.

We have put together a complete, up-to-date list of products that fully meet these strict selection criteria and the applicable European safety regulations.
A car organiser helps keep cables, snacks, tools and travel essentials in place. For a boot model, check the width, attachment points and maximum load. A car sun visor glasses holder is particularly practical when it attaches securely to the sun visor without obstructing your view. For camping or fishing, a collapsible 20-litre bucket can save space in the boot.
Anyone combining a car dashcam with a CarPlay screen should pay extra attention to cable routing, reflections in the windscreen and the positioning of the rear camera. Do not install anything in your direct field of vision, and set up screens before you set off.
That depends on your preferred position. An air-vent holder is compact, while a suction cup model offers more positioning options. Measure the phone, including its case, and check the shape and strength of the air vent or dashboard.
You can, provided the required power remains within the capacity of both the inverter and the 12V socket. Use the inverter in a well-ventilated area, do not connect devices with high heating power and bear in mind that the battery may run flat when the engine is not running.
Look at the handlebar diameter, phone dimensions, protection against vibration and weather conditions. A motorcycle phone holder must be securely fitted without obstructing the controls or your view. Also check whether the manufacturer specifies a maximum phone thickness including the case.
