It's so nice to see the good ol' Alto getting spruced up and the alloys go so well with the car. In my book, the Type 2 Alto was the best looking Alto of all time. Now how about adding a rear wiper and a lip spoiler, eh? The wiper from the Alto 1.1 should be a good fit.

Thanks.

My +1.

That's exactly the plan. I have ordered the Parts Patalogue and workshop manual of the Alto and Celerio. So far only got the Celerio Parts Catalogue. Planning rear wipers on both cars. Power windows and central locking is also on the cards for the Alto.

How much you paid for the alloys?
I am planning to change my Alto K10 wheels.

Excellent. Your first car is your first car is your first car. Period.

I too own a '07 Alto LXi and am running a setup similar to yours. It is my default go to ride for all in town errands and clocks anywhere between 800-1k kms every month.


Quick Questions :

- Foglamps : Are they MGA? If yes from where did you manage to source them from?
- Tyre Upzie : Did you get any spacers installed at the rear?


A few points to consider:

- Try sourcing the transparent (white) cover for the side indicators. Looks better.
- Replace the front parking and rear number plate lights with LED's. I am using Philips Vision 6000k at the front and rear and Sylvania T10 Amber LEDs for the side indicators.
- Remote Locking and Power Windows : Get an RD kit for the power windows and an AutoCop kit for the remote lock. The auto-wind up module works and you can also get the key converted to a flip key similar to the one on the VW Polo.
- Rear wash + wipe : I am also interested in this so do keep us posted on how this goes. Sourcing the OEM switches and wiring might turn out to be an issue. The other parts are easily available.
- Workshop + Service Manual : Have been looking for this for the last 2 years now without any luck.

It's not my first car. My first car was an Uno.

Non-MGA. Bought them on Amazon.

- Tyre Upzie : Did you get any spacers installed at the rear?

No

Will do

- Replace the front parking and rear number plate lights with LED's. I am using Philips Vision 6000k at the front and rear and Sylvania T10 Amber LEDs for the side indicators.

Front Parking are LED's already. So is the cabin light.

- Remote Locking and Power Windows : Get an RD kit for the power windows and an AutoCop kit for the remote lock. The auto-wind up module works and you can also get the key converted to a flip key similar to the one on the VW Polo.
- Rear wash + wipe : I am also interested in this so do keep us posted on how this goes. Sourcing the OEM switches and wiring might turn out to be an issue. The other parts are easily available.
- Workshop + Service Manual : Have been looking for this for the last 2 years now without any luck.

Will update once done.

Here are photos of them when I picked them up and during the refurb process.
