During the 1950s and 1960s, South America experienced a period of economic growth and industrialization, and the automotive industry expanded rapidly. This led to the development of the aftermarket industry for interior car accessories, as consumers looked for ways to upgrade their cars and make them more comfortable and stylish. In the following decades, the market for interior car accessories in South America continued to grow, driven by advances in technology and design. Automakers began offering more advanced features such as air conditioning, power windows, and stereo systems.
