Car accessories can be amazing — and they take a million different forms. Some are amazing car mods that allow you to drive in style. Others are quality navigation systems or cushy bucket seats. Unfortunately, most auto accessories will make you go broke fairly quickly.

Notice, though, that I said most and not all.

It's very possible to get car gear without causing yourself to go broke. Today, we're going to check out the coolest and most useful car accessories for under $100.

One of the most useful car accessories for under $100 won't even cost you $10 — and yes, it's easy to install. This pair of blind spot mirrors will help you stay safe while driving, by ensuring you can check out the blind spots in your mirrors.

Shark Tank actually featured this innovative accessory; and we're willing to guess that the investors realized how genius it is because they probably have dropped credit cards, phones, and pens in that pesky seat gap themselves.

Fishing that stuff out of your car's random gap is a pain; which is exactly why having these car seat gap fillers is such a good investment. If you're sick of getting your hand caught in that weird region, you'll get why these are the most useful car accessories for under $100 for klutzes.

This nifty, easy-to-clean pad makes sure that the stuff you keep on your dash will stay on your dash — even if you take a super sharp turn while getting on the turnpike! It's crazy useful. It's under $20. What more do we have to say.

A busted tire is no joke; and replacing tires isn't cheap, either. One of the best ways to keep your car's tires looking good is to get Fix-A-Flat Sealant. This creates a chemical sealant that seals punctured tires and prevents replacements in a pinch.

This is one of the smartest car accessories for under $100 you can get. Even if you're not a mechanic who can rattle off car stats and what they mean, you can use Fix-A-Flat fairly easily. No tools are required. Just spray it in the hole that you put tire air into, and get back to your road trip.

It's really terrifying to think of, but it's true: there's a chance you could end up submerged in water due to a bad car accident. When water's filling up your car, your chances of drowning skyrocket — and that's where Resqme comes into play.

This car escape keychain tool is designed to let you break out of your car in the event of an emergency. If you're looking for good safety-related car accessories for under $100, this keychain is a must.

Now, let's talk about some of the cooler car mods you can get — and why they are amazingly cool car accessories for under $100. This car stereo by XO vision comes with the ability to get your car bumpin' with Spotify thanks to its Bluetooth compatibility and auxiliary cable input.

Don't feel like going digital when you want to play music? That's okay. You can also listen to the radio, and kick it up a notch with its easy interface, too. The stereo itself is only $20, and experienced mechanics will be able to install it fairly quickly.

(It's worth noting that any place that sells car gadgets will have stereos that are under $100, but have USB ports or other Bluetooth-ready features. Why aren't you upgrading, again? It's one of the best way to modernize your old car.)

Considering that we're making a list of the most utilitarian car accessories for under $100, it's impossible not to include a cell phone dashboard mount on there — such as this stylish number from iOttie. Handsfree? No problemo!

Worried about being blamed for a car accident you didn't cause? You can potentially save yourself fines and jail time by getting one of the most popular car gadgets in recent years: a dash cam.

Admittedly, finding these car accessories for under $100 is hard, but it's doable. OldShark made this affordable model; and it comes with 1080p vision, a wide angle camera, a G-sensor, night vision, and a 16 GB card, too.

Admittedly, this is not one of the more useful car accessories for under $100 when it comes to safety — but it is useful when it comes to making an impression!

These Superman-themed car lights are easy to install, let riders see what's on the ground before they set their feet down, and also add a splash of geektastic style to your car. If you're a fan of one of the most powerful superheroes ever, you might need to get these on principle alone, right?

Sorry if these aren't exactly useful. They're just too cool not to mention.

Carmate's Blang line is one of Japan's hottest car air freshener brands in history — and once you smell it, you'll understand why. This extremely stylish line of air fresheners is modeled after famous colognes that people like to wear.

Unlike the terrible tree air fresheners you get from detailers, Blang Glitter air fresheners don't make you feel car-sick after an hour of riding. They also can be tucked under seats or displayed on the dashboard. Either way, they're stylish and useful, especially if your commute passes near some funky-smelling areas.
