Thank you for the response. I have seen the post and I believe it a bumper drilled one. I am looking for near number plate one like Alpha variant. Correct me if I am wrong.

Wrong. I specifically mentioned the camera was mentioned on the number plate light cover fixture and it is Minda accessory. It was installed in 2018.

Oh OK. Looking at the image I though it was a bumper one. How is the video quality and any specific issues faced till now ?

Image quality is acceptable, no problem so far.

Apologies for very late reply @Torquesteer, was busy in work. I had ordered cable from amazon, posting link here.

If its out of stock on amazon, you can order from the parent website as well.

I have attached one end to the music system and other end to original Alpha variant camera.

Thank you for your response. I am planning on sourcing camera from Boodmo and will get the cable from the above website. I spoke to Maruti A.S.S but they said they won't be able to install it for me. Need to some FNG who can install it without damaging anything while removing and installing back.

Dont get it from Boodmo, I had placed an order but cancelled it since they couldn't ship it even after 15 days. Source the camera from exclusive Maruti spare parts shop. I'll share the pics soon, you will get it how to do it. Its pretty easy install except for the rear boot wire routing.

Need to check where that is in Pune. Just spoke to the service center and they denied selling it over the counter. Thank you so much for the information.

I remember reading about Maruti Genuine Parts stores in Kharadi, Quarter Gate (near YMCA) and Mukundnagar (off Satara road) a few months ago. Google for "mgp stores in pune" for their addresses.

Yep. Googled and called a couple of them. They are quoting ₹7675 just for the camera. Boodmo sells the camera for ₹5700. Is it just the price that is different or is it the entire product different ?

I have booked Ignis Alpha AMT for my wife. OTR in Chennai post discount (18k=15k cash discount and 3K corporate discount) is 844596. Will not be opting for basic accessories and extended warranty which will save me another 24k odd. Delivery expected in 3-4 weeks.

Congratulations on your new ride and welcome to the Ignis family!

Is it Alpha AMT or MT?

Also, one thing I realized after the delivery of my Ignis is that I should have got the door sill covered/protected. Those were the "first" very painful scratches on my car.

Thanks man.

We bought this for my mom for her daily commute. So, it's an Alpha AMT.

I took delivery of Ignis Alpha AMT yesterday. The return to centre action is improved in this version as the steering returns back upto 70 person. Apart from the side cladding and number plate garnish as accessories, have and upgraded the tyres to 195/60 R15 Continental UC6. With 5J rims, 195 sections are on the extreme end of comparability. Haven't driven much to comment on the difference except that UC6 are very silent compared to Bridgestone Ecopia which came as stock. The cabin light is very weak and being placed in the front means that there is no light at the rear seat.

Planned upgrades
Seat Covers, Steering wrap, roof wrap, top gear 7D mats, Blaupunkt key Largo Android system, Rockford Fosgate front comps, 3 way rear coaxials, CTK damping, ORVM autofolding kit, footwell lighting, cabin light LED upgrade, horn upgrade
