BHPian Rahul Lal<\/strong> recently shared this with other enthusiasts.<\/p>\n I did not buy any MS genuine accessories at the time of buying Jimny except mud flaps & mats. However, now I am slowly adding a few essential items to make Jimny more comfortable to drive & pleasant to look at.<\/p>\n Console tray: To create more space for small items I bought a centre console tray from Seiwa JP. Made of soft material. So no rattling sound when items are kept on it. Quite useful in keeping small things.<\/p>\n Floor mats: I tried using both MGA – Weather mats and premium carpet mats. But the front mats, especially the driver-side mats were too small to cover the carpet. Despite being fixed to floor locks, these mats kept on sliding.<\/p>\n Since both India & Japan have RHD systems, I could get front floor mats from Japan. These are TPE resin 3D mats which fit perfectly. They cover the maximum carpet area & stay firm. Also, the holes matched the floor locks. Since the 5-door model is still not available abroad, I could not find rear mats. Anyhow MGA rear mats are still better & stay firm.<\/p>\n Engine hood Insulation pad: I always felt the bonnet should have an insulation pad which was missing. Tried getting one but could not get it in the local market.<\/p>\n So bought one from ANTC Japan. It is made of three layers- aluminium foil, soundproof cotton & PET cotton. It too fitted perfectly. Too early to comment on noise & heat insulation levels but definitely felt a dampening of engine sound.<\/p>\n Changed the front grill: Bought a vintage-style front grille from a seller in Delhi itself. With this Jimny’s front gives a wider look.<\/p>\n Removed spare wheel cover: Since the spare wheel comes with an alloy rim why hide it behind the wheel cover? Bought OEM hub cap from MGP retailer store & Farad star nuts to secure the spare wheel. Preferred to put all-star nuts to give a uniform appearance. Now rear gives a bold look.<\/p>\n Fog lamp bulbs: The stock fog lamp bulbs are of Osram 19W normal H16 type. They give dull yellowish light. So went for Sealight F1 series LED 22W H16 bulbs. Using these regularly with LED headlamps improve the nearby side visibility ie. footpath or dividers.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Check out BHPian comments for more insights and information.<\/p>\n
