Hi guys! I have fitted Glove Box Lamp in my I20, from Kothari Hyundai, Pune. Cost around Rs. 125/-. Provision for fixing and wirring was already present.

Ordered my part from Trident Hyundai - Kalyan Nagar and fitted it today morning.
Its a Plug and Play device, its known as Lamp Assy- Glove Box, Part No. 92630-1J000.
Park light should be ON to make the Glove box lamp to work.

Unit Price Rs.118/-
Total Cost including fitting Rs.173/-




I will add a night shot of the Glove Box illumination by tonight.

So we don't need to do any wiring for this one right? Just plug in the bulb and its cover?

Too good wildon! Just what i was waiting for! Placed a order for this with the HASS!Thanks. And ya do post a night shot with the lamp on

[flyingkolors]

Also, isn't glove box lamp a standard feature in the new variants? Can somebody pls confirm.

Also, did some one try the Sill Gaurds for I20 in India? My friend has got them for his ANHC and they look quite beautiful.

I always used to wonder what that opening in the glove box was for. Now I know!

Also got a call from A.S.S person to come up for the ECU upgrade for better A/C performance. I don't know why they have waited so long to call me. At present Bangalore weather is pleasant.

I couldn't find an reasonable answer for this from the HASS till now, but fortunately i met up with an Hyundai Mechanic through a friend of mine today. As per him if the vehicle pulls to one side after alignments then its could be case of either,

1. Defective front suspension and steering
2. Drive shaft ball joint problem
3. wheel bearing problem

At present the vehicle is pulling to left side always and steering is not center. HASS claimed that they have balancing and alignment has done on the last repair job (universal joint replacement under warranty)

Is Madhu's is a good option to cross check my car's alignments ? Experts please suggest.

[sagarpadaki]

Wildon,AFAIK the car drifting to left when the steering is left in the dead center position is normal since the roads are banked.Please correct me if i am wrong.The same happens in my i20 too.it veers a bit left if i leave the steering.I got my alignment done at Madhus even after that its veering to left.

[wildon]

^^To counter the road slope problem, i drove my car several times on the Vittal Mallya Road, which is fully concrete and almost flat. I also tested my car at the Mantri Mall parking lot (there you will get lots of straight flat surface) just to make sure what i'm saying is right. One of my friend too driven the car couple of times in other roads ( he drives a Wagon R) and complains that my cars is pulling to the left every time.

Nice!! I'll order the part ASAP!!

Thanks a lot Wildon and chronos

btw for a av touchscreen device, I was looking at this - Clarion 7-inch Audio - Sat-Nav and Bluetooth Upgrade Accessories for Hyundai i20 2009 - 2011

The good news is, its compatible with the steering controls!! We all can get it if some are interested!

My 1.2L Asta manufactured in November 2010 doesn't have the glove box lamp as a standard feature.

@ Wildon: Super find! Will get this fixed when the car goes for its first service.

Have you been researching on the front map reading lamp? Sorely missed :(

Also, wanted to check what is the tire pressure to be maintained? As per the manual, its 30 psi (cold tire) if driving without load but I find that a little low. Also, what is the correct psi for hot tire (+3, 4?)?

And wonderful thread! This is becoming one stop shop for all I20 related issues and questions! (5 stars from me too)
