Better access, top ride

BUYING ACCESSORIES for a car has always been a problem. You never know whether you are being taken for a ride by the accessories shop fellow. Whether it's reasonably priced or not or whether the product is good or not. There are doubts and doubts. And for every question you have, the shop assistant comes up with a ready answer. But still, you have your own doubts.

Well! That has been the scenario whenever you wanted to buy any accessory. A stereo, a CD changer, a clear lens fog lamp, mats, body covers... you name it, there are at least a dozen brands available. But most importantly, none of them has the company certification. The salesman would readily assure you that the accessories would go well with the car, but doubts linger on... whether the extra fittings would be compatible with the mechanical and electrical systems of the car.

Not only that. There are no standards for quality and prices are not clearly marked. That has been the problem, always.

In this scenario, the Maruti Genuine Accessories comes as a saving grace. Do you know Maruti Udyog Ltd sells about 140 car accessories in their 229 authorised showrooms. The company has sold around Rs. 15 crores worth accessories last year and this year it plans to double the sales.

Its accessories come with a company warranty and needless to say they are best suited for Maruti vehicles. Right from car shampoo to glass cleaners or stereos to CD changers, everything is available in Maruti showrooms at company marked prices.
