@ Vaibhav

Yes, that is a good decision. But, the rear parking sensor+ camera is 5350 which is not really that worthy IMO. But still have a look a the IRVM integrated parking sensor + camera which is 20K. Its costly but, it is the actually better than the one which we get in CIAZ.

If I were you, I would wait for few more days, save some money and get the IRVM only. As I mentioned in the earlier post, my decision is pending between the normal one and IRVM integrated as in XT, I already got the sensors which are pretty good.

Moscowhiskies :)

Guyz,

I have got the front armrest installed. Dealer quoted Rs. 1000. But agreed on Rs. 800 with installation. Installation took 15 minutes.

Whole console is made of plastic which looks durable. Armrest is made of art leather. With the dimensions of approx. 11" X 5" it is big enough and comfortable for the arm to rest. Armrest can be extended forward for approx. 3".

Handbrake and seatbelt buckles are working fine. Though you need to make little adjustment for both. But, this adjustment is worth the comfort you get.

Storage inside the console is good enough for 3-4 pepsi tin cans.

It comes with small anti-skid mat.

Guy showed me the demo by fixing my S2 on Dashboard. I know it's an exageration. But, it surely serves the purpose.

Some clicks from back seat. Looks neat.

Now, bumper scratch protectors are my next hunt. First service is the deadline. Though I liked these ones

but I might be picking official zest ones as they seem to be big enough to hide the hole in my bumper.

That's great. Would love to have them as they give a lot of comfort while driving. Can you tell me if there is any difficulty to use the hand brake. And is the gear lever reachable when you keep your hands on the arm rest.

No difficulty/adjustment in applying the handbrake. Gear change is comfortable while arm rests on armrest.

However, while putting down the handbrakes you need to extend your hand a bit and reach from co-driver side to push the button.

Hi,

Can you please tell me what is the welcome kit that you are mentioning?

I went to Concorde Motors, Chennai and I wasn't told of any welcome kit. [surprise]

Thanks, Ram

That would mean some level of uncomfortness to the co-passenger. Would also check with some guys here in Bengaluru.

Anyone in Bengaluru check for an arm rest.

I had put an arm rest on my dad's swift, the comfort level has made me to think of getting the arm rest installed on my Zest too.[;)]

No difficulty to co-driver as you extend only 1-2".

Sorry Ram. I am not aware of the welcome kit. You can call different dealers and cross check.

Sorry @mod for back to back post. Realized after posting.
