Mr. Chowdhury

Could you pls provide the break up for 1 lakh for acessories. i think you can easily get these done under 50k !!

Whats the waiting period of the car?

Manish, you cant get it 'Easily' for under 50k He is referring to a head unit not what we see usually. It alone costs upwards of 35k. And alloys cost above 20k if you want a good brand and not a fancy one.

Yes, the HU itself will cost 52K. The HU is from Caska (http://caskaindia.com/index.php).

Alloys will be 25K, rest is seat covers and speakers.

Regards,

I have got information about another alternative to Caska and cheaper. It's called Motevo. Do you have any suggestion on this HU?

@S Chowdhury- You can easily get quite good alternative to caska & cheaper too. I guess you are getting Caska from dealer else its not that costly. It should cost around 45-46k with camera & everything. Or if you ship it then it'll cost you even much lesses.

Would advise you to look at Blaupunkt's new york 800. It should cost you around 34-35k. Its from a very good company unlike caska(which is chinese) & has same functions.

Thanks for the suggestion !!

Yes, the Caska is from dealer and is more costly, but then it comes with warranty and service. Don't think if I directly buy, will get any warranty.

I'll definitely have a look at "Blaupunkt's new york 800". However, will I get warranty with this one?

Thanks a ton for your valuable advises.

Yes you will get warranty with this one( Blaupunkt ). You can buy this from any reputed accessory shop.

Dealers also ship them(caska) & makes hefty profit on this on the name of warranty.

I called up Caska India, and they quoted a price of 49K for the OE Unit (as per them it being OE will exactly fit the Honda City dashboard).

And this comes with only 1 year of warranty... seems preety stiff price... my wife is never going to approve Smile
