Default 2016 Chevy Express 3500 3 Dr LT 15 pass van best accs for Dash mat, Horn, etc...

Will time to add a few acc's to the van. Would like to hear your opinions. Would like to add some kind of dash mat, Horn, Window visors, Hood deflector, and maybe add some kind of storage between the front seats. Anyone have storage under the factory bench seats or at the back by the back doors ? Appreciate your comments..

Thank you
Kenny

You should post a pic for others to actually see your ride....
as far as adding the accs your talking about you might want to read the
thread I had started...
Best up grades done.

I have done alot of what your talking about wanting to do ...
I have had a lot a people add their ideas as to what is a
good upgrade... the bug deflector and rain guards they
were the first upgrade I did... but I bought mine locally
we have a great Store that specialized in Truck and Van
parts... I was able to get a great price on mine ....
AVS are the brand I went with here is a link AVS Bug Deflectors - FREE SHIPPING from AutoAnything

Yes, had noticed your thread. My van looks like STANMAN's Van.

Appreciate the comments and following your journey with your van.

Have a Great Weekend..

I did the dash carpet, in black. A noticeable difference in both radiated heat and glare.

Dash Cover - Chevrolet Van Full Size Express 2014-2018

I got my window visors from Weathertech. I had been promising Da Wife a set for her Equinox, and finally made good when I did mine.

I've been bad with getting and posting pics, Kenny. I will try and take a few in a day or so. I've had a real busy couple of months, finding a place to live, moving, and finally getting to(more like rushing at the last minute) building a bed for my first camp trip in this van(this past weekend). And I've totally blown it in doing a build thread. I may try and recover from that.

I built a console of sorts, for my Astro. It lasted less than a week. It was a real impediment when climbing in to the back.

Guess I will mount my radios in a console there, just wondered others might have used that space for.

Appreciate your comments

Thank you

Radios? Ham? That's what I had planned for the one I built. I use hand helds, and had a UHF and VHF business radios tuned out of band. In the end, I got a dual bander and made a bracket on the dash. I'm not sure what I'll do in this van. It's already taller than my Astro was, and removing the antenna on the roof was a PITA every time I went in to a garage. This Express is already limiting me in garages as it is.

I haven't forgotten about those pics I promised. I'm swapping out the stereo tomorrow, and Saturday, we're supposed to have sun, so... It could happen.
