Aftermarket accessories are big business and Ford is looking to cash in by unveiling nearly 200 upgrades for the 2021 Bronco. It’s a diverse collection as customers can get car covers and door storage bags as well as side steps and rock rails. The company also offers an assortment of different fender flares as well as seat covers, floor mats and mud flaps.
While you can check out the full range of
accessories here, we’ll take a look at a handful of the more interesting
options. As someone who has had things stolen out of his Jeep CJ7, secure
storage is a must if you plan on going topless. Thankfully, Ford has you
covered with a handful of options.
The most convenient is a US$ 339 center
console vault, which features a lock as well as 12 gauge cold-rolled steel
plate construction. If that’s not spacious enough, you can get a US$ 670.43
security drawer that resides in the rear cargo area. It only fits the four-door
Bronco, but it has a “heavy duty lock system,” adjustable dividers and a
carpeted floor that should help to minimize rattles.
Owners wanting to maximize the Bronco’s
open air experience can check out the US$ 2,229 TrekTop retractable soft top. It
has a Sunrider function, which allows drivers to easily open the roof from
inside the vehicle. It also has no-zipper windows and a rear window that
doesn’t interfere with the operation of the swing gate.
Off-roading typically involves deflating
your tires and that makes an air compressor an almost must-have accessory. Ford
has customers covered with a US$ 369 portable air compressor kit from ARB.
Essentially an air compressor in a tool box, the kit includes a 19-foot air
hose, battery clamps and an ARB air chuck with a quick press fitting.
For people who want to go overlanding,
Ford offers an assortment of different tents. One of them is the US$ 1,599 Thule
Tepui Explorer Ayer two-person tent, which mounts to the roof rails and
includes a high-density foam mattress for added comfort. Lastly, there’s an
affordable work table that is mounted inside the rear swing gate. It costs US$ 209
and drops down when you need an extra work surface. It also accepts MOLLE
pouches and folds up to maximize cargo capacity.
