Try DecoratingYour Golf Cart and Get in the Holiday Spirit

It’s coming toward the end of fall, signaling the beginning of some serious holiday celebrations. The holiday season is a time for family and friends to come together, have fun, and enjoy each other’s company. A wonderful annual tradition and a great way to get in some quality family time is to decorate the house and trim the tree together. If you really want to get into the holiday spirit, consider decorating your golf cart and spreading some holiday cheer as you drive around your community.

While decorating your golf cart for the holidays is fun, consider the season and make sure you stay safe by adding appropriate accessories to accommodate the change in the weather.

Here are some fun and practical ways you can trick out your golf cart this holiday season.

Create Extra Space
Golf carts are an economical and efficient way to move around town, especially if you are fortunate enough to live in a community that allows road-worthy carts to travel on the main streets. However, when you have guests visiting during the holidays, it can be impractical to use your cart even for short trips into town. An effective way to solve this problem is to install a rear seat in your cart.

A versatile solution to your capacity issues is to install a flip-over rear seat in your golf cart that can not only function as extra seating for holiday guests but also be easily converted into a flatbed for transporting items once your guests have left.

For a more permanent way to add space to your cart, opt for a stretch kit. A stretch kit can turn a 2-seat cart into a 6-seat person moving machine.

Create a Multi-Functional VehicleThe end of fall also means the beginning of some very cold weather, and, in some parts of the country, this can also mean snow. While you may not be able to venture into town so often during the cold weather, you can still make use of your golf cart as an effort-saving snow plow.

Installing a golf cart snow plow is a great way avoid the back-breaking labor involved with removing snow from your driveway, leaving you more time to spend enjoying the holidays. Once the weather starts to warm up again, you can easily remove the plow and store it for the following winter.

Stay Safe

The combination of increased traffic and poor weather conditions during the holiday season can lead to some unsafe driving conditions. In addition to adding a snow plow to combat cold weather conditions, you may want to consider upgrading your tires to avoid snow or ice related accidents.

Consider changing your standard cart tires to all-terrain tires for added grip and stability while driving. Always ensure your tires are inflated to the optimum pressure to avoid damage to your cart or a potential accident.

Get into the Holiday Spirit

The holidays are a time for fun and festivities, and, often, this includes parades and festivals. Your cart can be the center of attention at the parade with the addition of a few festive decorations. You can also get your family and friends involved in the decorating for some extra family fun and quality time.

There are many DIY options to be found online, often involving simple, painted cardboard cut-outs to create sleighs and gingerbread houses. You can go the extra mile by using your hitch and trailer from hunting season to create more elaborate holiday scenes.

For the truly dedicated parade participant, update your cart by customizing your body kit to include some holiday themes. Many custom body kits come in a variety of colors for easy installation. Choose holiday-themed decals to decorate your new body kit. You could opt for a traditional red and green color theme, or go for something a bit more spectacular and try a metallic gold or silver theme.

Another fun way to add some holiday spirit is to install a golf cart radio kit so you can have holiday tunes blasting all season long. Or install a new golf cart horn for a fun and inexpensive way to demonstrate your holiday spirit.

Tricking out your golf cart is both a practical and fun way to show your holiday spirit. Install safety features, like all-terrain tires, to ensure you and your family stay safe while traveling.

Get your friends and family together to celebrate and have fun by decorating your golf cart for the holidays, and participate in holiday parades to show off your festive new cart.

Always remember to obey the rules of the road so you and your passengers can remain safe and enjoy the holidays!
