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

Dashcams are mounted on the car’s windshield, facing forward and recording events on the road. This footage is useful for insurance claims in the event of an accident, disputing incorrect traffic fines, and recording scenic drives. Some dash cams also have a secondary camera facing the cabin, ideal for vlogging.

3. Wiper blade

B00P21KZVQ-3

Your wiper blades may not have seen much use since the last monsoon. As the monsoon season approaches, it is important to check that your wipers are working properly and that the blades are cleaning your windshield effectively. Heat can damage the rubber on wiper blades, causing them to wear out. If your wiper blades are worn, they may need to be replaced.

4. Mud flap

B0BBZSQHF7-4

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

5. Window shades

B07YRN59NP-5

Driving in the rain with the windows open can let water into the cabin, and 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 car even when the window is 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.
