It looks very nice. Hope it doesn't get hot if the car is exposed to the Delhi sun for long. Happened to my Ikon very often. The steering became too hot to even touch.

[rkbharat]

MODS, Thanks for renaming the thread.

Ed. It does get hot a bit as I had the same in my Indica. So I had to put a double layer of towel on the steering to keep it off from direct sun. Still it gets hot. Good part is it cools down pretty fast as well.

Rajiv,

Are the seatcovers from GSport or some other manufacturer? How are they faring in Delhi weather and how much did you spend on them?

[rkbharat]

Rajneesh, these are of Riveria brand with 1 year warranty for any color fade, stiching issue, etc etc.

Currently I do not have any issue with temprature as Delhi is running around 25 due to rain. But I think they will better than Pure Leather and hotter that fabric ones.

It costed me 10K with Door Trims.

Hi Rajiv,

> Now as I am enjoying the car, I think I am ok to live with that.

Congratulations!

You may not have to live with it.

> Now there was nothing can be done except replacing the bumper.

Cranky, but why don't you ask your dealer to fit two more sensors to complement the already fitted ones. You can choose the central ones to be active and leave the other two as dummies.

In that way you would have a unique six sensor (at least look wise) reverse parking assist system. Or if system permits connect two sensors in series in each side.

Congrats on a very nice car, very much like the body colored parking sensors. From the pics posted by you, I cant make out how this accessory has been fixed.
2. Xenos Gear Lock, PIN type

Can you post a pic with the Gear Lock shown. How much did it cost and how was the fitting done? I'm interested in getting the same for my car (Silky Silver SX4, Feb '08)

[pradkumar]

Hi,

Congrats first!

You got an exchange bonus for Indica? I though exchange bonus was valid for only Maruti cars. Shucks - I didn't ask for that when I exchanged my Indica for the Baleno.

so total 1.4 Lacs.

Got 12K corporate bonus and 4k worth of one extended warranty. I purchased 4th year extended warranty as well.

Also I managed to transfer 50% NCB of my Indica to SX4 as well.

So over and all, I managed to built quite a good package.

[vkochar]

@ pradkumar - They just put this offer on SX4. It was not there before.

I am not sure if the exchange offer was when you brought your Baleno.

Doc, I feel it will look too bad having so many dots on the bumper, or it may completely confuse the detection system. I think I will leave it like this for now.

Yes exchanged it for Indica. Actually they have a very clever way of handling non-maruti cars. They involve a 3rd party dealer to handle the deal and put there stamp on the deal.

Also currently its only for SX4 as anniversary offer.

Congrats Bharat

How much does the Transparent Mat cost? Did you buy from showroom or elsewhere?
