Modified Kei Truck Interiors: 6 Custom Comfort and Style Ideas

Looking to level-up your kei truck’s interior? 

One of the most significant benefits of owning a kei truck is the customization opportunities it offers. You also don’t have to spend lots of money to take your kei truck experience from good to great. Below, we’ll highlight several noteworthy kei truck interior upgrades and explain how they’ll increase your driving satisfaction. 

Swap Your Standard Kei Truck Wheel for a Track-Ready NRG

Aftermarket steering wheels are an excellent choice if you want to add some interior flair to your kei truck. Our inventory features an extensive selection of NRG steering wheels, boasting in-demand features such as carbon fiber trim, Alcantara, suede, and more. If you buy an aftermarket steering wheel, we also provide model-specific hub adapters to physically connect the wheel and steering column, and quick releases to facilitate seamless wheel removal and added theft protection.

Beyond Aesthetics: How Window Tint Transforms Your Kei Truck’s Cabin

Most people think about window tint from an exterior perspective, focusing on curb appeal. However, from an interior standpoint, kei truck window tint can reduce glare and increase privacy. Tint percentage, or Visible Light Transmission (VLT), is the most significant factor to consider when selecting window tint. VLT percentages range from 5% to 90%, with 5% being the darkest. State laws vary on VLT percentage requirements, and front-side window laws tend to differ from rear-side window restrictions. Many drivers can meet legal standards with 35% VLT on front and rear passenger windows, and darker tints provide more privacy.

Seat Saviors for Your Kei Truck

Many kei trucks come standard with basic upholstery that emphasizes durability, such as cloth, but a seat cover set can maintain durability while increasing comfort and style. Our inventory includes universal-fit seat cover sets for popular models, including the Subaru Sambar, Honda Acty, Suzuki Carry, Daihatsu Hijet, and more. Drivers seeking greater durability can look to our heavy-duty seat protectors. In contrast, those prioritizing style for models like Honda’s Acty and Subaru’s Sambar can find satisfaction in upgrades like a PVC leather seat protector set. Seatbelt covers are a stylish, comfortable, and inexpensive way to complement a seat protector upgrade.

Keep Dirt Out and Style in With a Shifter Boot

Kei trucks typically don’t come standard with a shifter boot, but they’re worth considering since they help keep dirt and debris out of the shifter area, prevent accidental shifting, and elevate your interior’s appearance. Transmission repairs, like any other vehicle, are among the most expensive for kei trucks, so keeping foreign contaminants out of this area is vital. We carry shifter boots for models like the Subaru Sambar, as well as shift knobs for a more satisfying look and feel.

Personality in Peel-Off

Stickers are among the most affordable ways to upgrade the aesthetics of your kei truck’s interior. Many kei truck owners love the novelty and humor of stickers, but they can also cover up minor blemishes.

Why Aroma Pendants Are the Perfect Cabin Therapy

Aroma pendants for your kei truck’s interior don’t have to be an eyesore. Oiwa Garage offers long-lasting artisanal aroma pendants full of JDM personality for $10. Our chemical-free artisanal aroma pendants strike an ideal balance between form and function, with long-lasting scent diffusion and a size of 6cm wide by 7.5cm long.
