Yesterday i called Xenos distributor in Bangy and quoted Rs.2300/- but was not in stock!!! |
It was not an easy experience. Saturday, I called Autoworld in J.C Road and they told me to come to their shop at 11:30. As I had time, I went to Madhus Tyre Centre in Double Road for wheel allignment. Then I got call from Xenos that courier has not arrived and Gear Lock cannot be delivered. I negotiated and he commited to install it at home, eventhough they do not do it. Next weekend Xenos guys came for installation.
They assured me that installation is no big deal and it will take 1 hr.But it went on for around 2 hrs and I could make out that they were not experienced with installation.
They had to remove the big plastic panel covering gear box extending from the dashboard to the back seat. Lot of screws to be removed and they did not have the sufficient tools. Fix the gear lock for inserting pin in the between the gear slots and screw the gear lock from under the chasis.
It was not a neat job as the box is not fitted properly into the slot they have cut on the plastic panel. Also the seat screw is hitting the box and cannot be locked easily.
I dont mind and did not shot at them as the box is on the side of the gear box and is not noticeable. It does not affect aesthetics  Only visible part is pinholder to hold the pin and it looks good with Xenos written on the top. Will post a picture of it tonight.
I can lock the gear in any gear by just installing the pin. There is a key for unlocking the pin. Easy to use and gives extra protection. |
