4wd knob jugaad:<\/h2>\n
I had mentioned in my opening post that the placement of 4×4 knob is a risky affair. I had couple of heart in mouth situations where the 4wd was engaged on the move on highway. Luckily for me the road was relatively empty and I could immediately stop safely. However given that such occurrences might be frequent I started to think of some jugaad cover over the knob. Tried to search online for such covers but nothing was available. However image searches threw one interesting find which was for Isuzu but that gave me a DIY idea.<\/p>\n

I could have tried to order this from somewhere and try it out but unfortunately it was showing currently unavailable on few websites. So I got the measurements and tried to source a plastic box matching the dimensions. Ended up with those small jewellery boxes which ladies use. Painted it black. Cut the bottom based on dimensions and used a double sided tape to stick it over the 4×4 knob panel.<\/p>\n
End result:<\/p>\n

This looks hideous and ugly no doubt. But soon I am planning to get this 3D printed somewhere by carefully measuring and designing it. For now it works.<\/p>\n
