LED Light Bars

Be safer on late summer nights with LED light accessories like light bars, LED headlights, and LED cube lights. 

Example LED Lights

With the Putco Blade LED Tailgate Light Bar & Plug-N-Play Connect, you can choose between a Putco Blade with red, amber, and white or the Putco Blade with only red and white. It produces a 6000k cool white reverse light adding an extremely bright backup light at night for safety and appearance.

You may also like the Westin Performance 2x Double Row LED Light Bar for increasing brightness and visibility around your vehicle. With a dust and moisture resistant lens, the light bar is sure to maintain its quality brightness. 

Auto One has all the best brands when it comes to LED lighting including

  • TrailFX
  • LEDGlow
  • ACI
  • ORACLE Lighting

Side Steps and Running Boards 

Side steps are great because they allow easy access into vehicles with less bodily strain. There are two main categories of running boards: powered and fixed.  In those categories, you’ll find a variety of shapes and sizes to fit your truck.

Two Running Board Examples

Powered Running Boards

The RealTruck AMP Research PowerStep automatically deploys when the door opens and will retract after a few seconds when the door closes. These retractable running boards drop lower than other steps, increasing accessibility. Similarly, the Westin Pro-e Power Running Boards are retractable and stay snug up against the body of the vehicle when closed to protect from potential damage. 

Fixed Running Boards

One of the step boards the techs at Auto One recommended looking at was the TrailFX A4 Aluminum Step Bars.  The A4 is a hexagonal straight Nerf Bar with step pads. It is made with corrosion resistant, extruded aluminum and comes in titanium black. 

Auto One’s catalog of running boards and step bars includes these manufacturers: 

  • DeeZee
  • TrailFX
  • AMP Research
  • Bestop
  • Putco
  • Steelcraft

Putco Luminix Ford Bronco Led Grille Emblem And Virtual Blade Amber And White

LED Grille Emblem

Show your car-owner pride with grille emblems like Putco’s stylish Luminix Ford Bronco LED Grille Emblem (now available for Ford Explorer as well). Its UV resilience and chipping resistant construction delivers a long-lasting performance for long-lasting style.

Another LED lighting accessory includes the ORACLE Lighting Universal Pre-runner Style LED Grill Light Kit that gives your vehicle a vibrant look and ultra-modern appearance. 

More emblems can be found at RealTruck with the FanMats NCAA Emblems. They offer emblems for several universities found across the country, as well as for the U.S. military. 

Sky View

Do you enjoy the sun but don’t want to take the top off your summer ride? Consider a sky view accessory!

Putco offers the Putco Element Sky View for both the Ford Bronco and Jeep Wrangler. This clear roof allows for a vibrant, high-clarity, iconic sky view with complete UV protection. The material can withstand temperatures of over 150 degrees Fahrenheit, as well as hurricane-like wind speeds, so your vehicle remains protected while you enjoy the view.

For Jeep Wranger specifically, Bestop offers the Sunrider for Hardtop. With the ability to flip back, it gives hard top owners instant access to an open-air driving experience without leaving the front seat of their Jeep.

Mud Flaps

Give your ride a little personality with new mud flaps. The mud flaps flexible material allows for better debris protection, and the corrosion-resistant materials will last the lifetime of your vehicle. Additionally, the sleek and laser-cut flaps have a setback design to allow more room for larger tires.

Exterior Mudflaps

If you want to add mud flaps, consider the Putco Mud Skins Mud Flaps or the Husky Liners bolt-on mud flaps.  Both manufacturers offer mudflaps that will protect against gravel, grit, and muck. 

Interior Floor Liners

For the interior, consider floor liners like WeatherTech’s Toyota 4Runner FloorLiner.  With mudflaps and floor liners, your vehicle can be protected from mud both on the inside and outside. 

Auto One carries floor mats and mud flaps from: 

  • Putco
  • Husky Liners
  • Lund International
  • DuraFlip
  • Pro Flaps
  • Powerflow
  • Stampede

Bug Shield

A bug shield helps protect your hood’s paint and your windshield from rock chips. It also maintains the performance and appearance of your vehicle. Despite no drilling on most applications, the shield will not flex, flutter, or vibrate, even at highway speeds. 

One of our favorite manufacturers, Westin, offers the Westin Platinum Bug Shield. More quality deflector bug shields are available from WeatherTech, Lund International, and Wade Automotive Products.

Putco Matte Black Window Visors

Window Deflectors

Window deflectors are great because they reduce the amount of heat that enters your vehicle, which keeps you cool in the increasingly hot weather. They also give you more security and privacy. Window deflectors are also both UV and scratch-resistant, meaning regular wear won’t show. They also create less wind noise, so you can have your windows down and not hear any turbulence. 

Auto One offers window deflectors from a variety of manufacturers including Putco, WeatherTech, EGR USA, and RealTruck AVS.
