Jimny Daily Driving Accessories: Essential for Ireland

2nd Dec. 2025 7 minute read

If you drive a Suzuki Jimny around Dublin—or anywhere across Ireland—you’ll know it’s more than just a small 4x4. It’s a character. A workhorse. A city-friendly daily driver that can handle tight parking spots, the odd boreen, and whatever the Irish weather decides to throw at it.


To truly personalize your ride and optimize your Jimny for daily use, choosing the right Suzuki Jimny accessories is key. Whether you own a new Jimny fresh from stock or an older model, there are plenty of aftermarket options that can enhance comfort, safety, and style while helping your vehicle stand out and turn heads on the road.


At The Jimny Co, we import Jimnys from Japan every week, and we see exactly which upgrades make everyday driving easier, safer, and more enjoyable. Below are the essential Suzuki Jimny accessories for daily driving in Ireland, along with insider notes from what the Jimny community loves most.


Jimny Interior Upgrades for Irish Daily Driving


The Jimny cabin is compact, so a few well-chosen interior upgrades can transform your daily driving experience and make every ride more comfortable. Sometimes, it’s the little things—like a handy set of floor mats or an organiser—that make all the difference on your daily commute.


All-Weather Floor Mats


Ireland = rain. Dublin = more rain. Deep-dish rubber floor mats keep the mud, grit, and puddles from destroying your carpet. We often install these essentials before handover—they’re one of the first accessories new owners add to protect their vehicle’s interior and keep the rear seats and flooring clean.


Seat Covers (Hard-Wearing or Waterproof)


If you hike in Wicklow or bring the dog along the M50, waterproof covers are a lifesaver. They’re easy to clean and help maintain the value of your Suzuki Jimny by protecting the rear seats and upholstery from wear and tear.


Upgraded Storage Solutions


The Jimny is small, so clever storage helps. Popular options include:

  • rear cargo nets attached behind the rear seats

  • centre console organisers

  • under-seat trays


These accessories help create a tidy cabin and stop your vehicle from turning into a rolling “bits box”—especially on bumpy Irish country roads.


Armrest and Comfort Enhancements


An aftermarket or OEM armrest is a simple upgrade that makes a big difference on longer drives, providing a place to rest your arm and improve driving comfort. Additionally, adding seat cushions or lumbar supports tailored for the Jimny can help reduce fatigue during slow city traffic or longer highway rides.


Jimny Comfort Accessories for City Commutes


Phone Mount / Wireless Charging


Essential for navigation through Dublin city centre or anywhere with long detours. The Jimny’s dash doesn’t include much built-in tech, so a solid phone mount and wireless charging station are must-have accessories to keep your phone secure and charged.


Sound Deadening


The Jimny’s boxy shape means road noise. Adding sound deadening materials to the doors and boot area improves ride comfort by reducing noise on motorway runs along the M50 or rural routes.


Customizable Interior Lighting


Adding ambient interior lighting kits or LED footwell lights can create a cozy environment inside your Jimny, making night driving more pleasant and enhancing the vehicle’s personality.


Jimny Exterior Accessories for Irish Roads


These accessories provide protection against the realities of Irish weather and narrow country lanes, helping your Jimny maintain its bold, rugged appearance.

Which exterior accessories work best often depends on your typical driving conditions or personal preferences.


Wind Deflectors


Perfect for ventilation on rainy days (which is… most days). Popular with Dublin commuters who want airflow without soaking the seats or worrying about wet interiors.


Mud Flaps


A simple but effective upgrade that protects your paintwork and wheels from grit, salt, and country-road muck, extending the life of your vehicle’s finish.


Window Tinting


Not just for style, window tints help with privacy, reduce glare on bright days, and keep the rear cool when the dog or kids are in the back seats.


Protective Body Covers


Consider investing in a high-quality car cover to protect your Jimny from rain, bird droppings, and tree sap when parked outdoors. This simple accessory helps maintain your vehicle’s paint and finish, especially in Ireland’s often wet climate.


Jimny Safety Accessories for Irish Driving


Reversing Camera


The Jimny’s rear visibility can be tricky, especially with the rear seats installed. We install reversing cameras on most of our imports before they even leave our workshop, making parking in tight Dublin spots much easier.


Upgraded LED Lighting


Irish backroads are dark, and proper LED headlights or fog lights dramatically improve visibility and safety during night drives or foggy mornings.


Dash Camera


A dash camera is useful for insurance and incident documentation—especially on busy roundabouts or chaotic Dublin roads where unexpected events can happen.


Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems (TPMS)


Maintaining the correct tyre pressure is crucial for safety and fuel efficiency. TPMS accessories alert you to any pressure drops, helping you stay safe on wet or icy Irish roads.

Jimny All-Weather Accessories


Roof Racks


Great for surfboards on the west coast or camping gear in Glendalough. The Jimny’s boot is tiny, so a roof platform solves a lot of space issues and lets you carry more gear for your next adventure.


Tyre Upgrade (All-Terrain or All-Season)


Even for daily driving, a good set of tyres improves stability on wet and windy days. We often see owners choose a mild all-terrain option for the perfect balance of performance and ride comfort.


Winter Accessories for Ireland


  • heated seat kits

  • winter-grade wipers

  • emergency boot kit (torch, blanket, AA Ireland-recommended items)


Winter in rural Ireland gets icy—more than people expect—so these accessories add protection and peace of mind.


Best Jimny Modifications for Ireland (Daily-Driver Friendly)


A few practical upgrades improve comfort and performance without ruining fuel economy or attracting unwanted VRT attention:

  • Suspension comfort kits (not lift kits, just softer dampers for a smoother ride)

  • Upgraded head unit with Apple CarPlay for seamless connectivity

  • Snorkel (for style and peace of mind on floods in South Dublin)

  • Tow bar for bike racks or trailers


We’ve fitted all of these on Irish customer builds—each modification adds value and functionality to your vehicle.


Please note that only authorized dealers or individuals are permitted to be selling Jimny modifications and accessories, in accordance with local regulations.


Maintenance and Changing Parts


Regular maintenance and timely changing of parts like brake pads, filters, tyres, and wheels are essential for keeping your Jimny running smoothly. Over time, parts wear down and need replacement to maintain safety and performance. Scheduling service checks with The Jimny Co ensures your vehicle stays in top condition, especially when using aftermarket accessories or modifications. Starting a maintenance routine early helps you stay forward in preventing costly repairs.
