Hi,

I am in the process of buying new a Tata Altroz (P) XT. The accessories' person in the showroom suggested me to take a few accessories for the car. Of them, I was pondering on below 3 which would cost Rs 9500.
1) Anti-Rust Underbody coating recommended by Tata
2) Front Bumpers
3) Body Side (Door) chrome moulding

Need a word of advice that should I do it from the showroom or look outside or skip partly or all?

Thanks.

Seems reasonable to me.
Also check if you are getting basic things like foot-mats and mud flaps.

Tata is selling the front bumpers as accessory? That's news to me. Surely there must be a typo here. Is it front bumper garnish for the chrome thing? If so, then suggest to get it from Tata itself if you really like it. Alternatively if rear sensors or camera, TPMS are available you can opt for that instead of the Chrome blings.

Thanks for the answer ghodlur. Yes I indeed wrong :

It should be front sensors (Rs 4500), Anti-Rust Underbody coating recommended by Tata (Rs 2600) and Body Side (Door) chrome moulding (Rs 2900) - all for Rs 9500 inclusive of labour charge.

Is there an updated list of must have accessories similar to the one provided by GTO at the beginning of this thread? Looking for an updated one considering the change in scene over the last decade. If accessories which are good for long road trips can also be included, that would be great. As always, any link (to Amazon etc) for the accessories that can be provided would be much appreciated.

There are a few gadgets I have in my car which I feel are must have:
1. TPMS
2. Dashcam
3. Tyre Inflator
4. Mobile holder cum charger
5. OBD 2 connector

I would recommend a glass breaker. Electronics can fail anytime.
