Which accessories improve a Chrysler 300’s comfort and style?

Question

Which accessories actually make a Chrysler 300 more comfortable and stylish without making it look overdone or creating fitment problems? I need to make a decision pretty soon because I’m taking my 2018 Chrysler 300S on a long road trip next month, and the interior is starting to feel a little plain and less comfortable than I expected.

I’ve owned and worked on cars for years, so I’m comfortable checking trim levels, measuring for fitment, and doing basic wiring, but I’ve run into a weird problem with this car: some accessories listed as fitting the 300 apparently interfere with the console, seat controls, or the factory Uconnect setup. I dont want to order a bunch of cheap parts and end up returning everything.

For comfort, I’m considering better seat cushions or leather-compatible seat covers, a center console organizer, all-weather floor mats, a phone mount, and maybe upgraded LED interior lighting. The seats are fine around town, but after two or three hours they get uncomfortable, especially the lower back. I’m also curious whether ventilated seat cushions or a quality steering wheel cover are worth it, or if they just trap heat and look tacky. Window shades and quieter door or trunk liners are also on my list if they genuinely reduce heat and road noise.

For style, I was thinking about subtle options like smoked or clear door-sill plates, better interior trim pieces, sequential mirror turn signals, black lug nuts, and maybe a low-profile rear spoiler. My budget is around $600 total, and I’d rather buy a few good accessories than cover the car in chrome or cheap carbon-fiber stickers. The car is black with the factory 20-inch wheels, so I’m trying to keep the appearance clean and slightly sporty.

What accessories have made the biggest real-world difference to your Chrysler 300’s comfort and appearance? Also, are there any popular products that tend to rattle, fade, block sensors, or cause issues with airbags and the factory electronics?

For $600, I’d prioritize Intro-Tech Automotive Ultimate Reflector Chrysler 300 Custom Sunshade and McGard SplineDrive Black Lug Nuts M14x1.5; both add usefulness and style without rattles, sensor issues, or overdoing it.

WeatherTech FloorLiner Laser-Measured All-Weather Mats Chrysler 300 2018 made the biggest practical difference; they fit well, don’t slide, and clean easily.
For the console, OTTO Universal Center Console Organizer ABS Plastic Chrysler 300 is useful, but verify the S-trim console shape before ordering.
I’m happiest with Covercraft Carhartt SeatSaver Custom Seat Covers Neoprene Chrysler 300 over cheap leather-look covers. They’re breathable and don’t interfere with airbags. Skip ventilated cushions and bulky steering covers—they trap heat and look aftermarket.

TL;DR: spend on support and heat control, not cosmetic gadgets. Unfortunately, ventilated cushions and thick steering covers trapped heat and felt cheap in my 300. A vehicle-specific ProClip USA Chrysler 300 2015-2023 Center Mount Phone Holder avoids the Uconnect screen and passenger airbag area. For lumbar comfort, ObusForme Lowback Backrest Support Adjustable Lumbar Cushion worked better than gel pads. Philips Ultinon Pro6000 LED Interior Bulbs 6000K sharpened the cabin without glare. Skip adhesive trim—it rattles and fades.
