Custom golf carts come in all shapes and sizes and increasing numbers of golfers and making a style statement on the golf course. The most popular upgrade for custom golf carts is the fitting of a lift kit. Lifted golf carts ride a lot higher from the ground and often are also fitted with custom golf cart wheels.
Some owners make interior upgrades to their custom golf carts with new dash panels, LCD monitors and sound systems, and customized golf cart seats. For the more subtle custom golf cart upgrade the first thing to be changed are the wheels.A straight swap for alloy or chrome style wheels of the same size are a simple upgrade, but fitting custom wheels that are larger may require extra clearance necessitating the fitment of spacers or for the largest wheels, a golf cart lift kit.
During a recent visit to the Golf Channel studio LPGA star Natalie Gulbis showed us a custom golf cart suspended on the wall of the studio set.

The custom golf cart featured a large LCD monitor mounted where the seat should be and Natalie Tweeted this news after her visit. This custom golf cart is probably not practical for use on the course, but custom golf carts are traditionally upgraded with leather seating and plush carpet mats.
Owners also fit their custom golf carts with sound systems which utilize audio equipment normally found in road cars. Electric golf carts are ideal for this custom upgrade as they already feature golf cart batteries for the drivetrain that can also be used to power the audio system. The large LCD TV in the above custom golf cart is probably too large to be practical, but smaller panels are installed to display audio system information, video, or golf GPS displays.
