1. Fog lights

B0BVZDRH53-1

Monsoon weather often brings dense fog, especially in areas with high humidity such as forests and ghats. Fitting fog lights to your vehicle is important for safety in foggy and rainy conditions. Newer cars often come with fog lights, but many older or lower-end models do not. Replacement fog lights are available and can be fitted by a mechanic to improve visibility and safety.

2. Dash cam

B0CZ94P6W6-2

The dash cam is mounted on the vehicle’s windshield, faces forward, and records events on the road. This footage is useful for insurance claims in case of accidents, disputing incorrect traffic fines, and recording scenic trips. Some dash cams also have a secondary camera facing the cabin, making them ideal for recording vlogs.

3. Wiper blades

The wiper blades may not have seen much use since the last monsoon. As the rainy season approaches, it is important to check whether the wipers are working properly and whether the wiper blades are cleaning the windshield effectively. Heat can damage the rubber on wiper blades, causing them to wear out. If your wiper blades are worn out, replacing them is necessary.

4. Mudguard

B0BBZSQHF7-4

Mudguards are common automotive accessories made of molded plastic and mounted behind the front and rear wheels. They protect the vehicle’s body from mud, water, and dirt thrown up by rotating tires. Mudguards can be purchased from aftermarket suppliers or dealers.

5. Window shades

Driving in the rain with the windows open can cause water to flood into the cabin, while closing the windows can cause moisture to build up inside the car, causing the windshield and windows to fog up. Window covers, also known as door covers, prevent water from entering the vehicle even when the windows are slightly open. This allows ventilation without getting wet.

In short, make sure your car is equipped with these accessories for a safer and more comfortable driving experience during the monsoon season.
