The Breastplate or Hoshen was worn by the High Priest in the times of the Holy Temple. It had 12 stones symbolizing the Twelve Tribes of Israel. 

Tribe & Stone: Reuben – Ruby, Shimon – Peridot or Topaz, Levi  – Emerald, Judah – Garnet, Issachar – Sapphire, Zebulun – Diamond, Dan – Opal, Gad – Amethyst,

The Mezuzah is a symbol that can be seen on the right-hand doorpost in every Jewish household or car. It acknowledges God's sovereignty over the home. Within is a hand-inscribed parchment bearing a blessing.

Having a mezuzah on the car door, touching it, and then touching the lips, reminds us to keep the word of God on our lips as we enter and leave the car.
