How to make Kia Optima from LADA Granta for 100 rubles

It is a sin to hide: the super-popular, but, moreover, ultra-budget LADA Granta is not an ideal car ... But if some are not satisfied with engine power, driving habits and finishing materials, then others are not satisfied with the lack of elementary "domestic" amenities. And in order to make the VAZ "state employee" more convenient and comfortable, some car owners are willing to spend substantial amounts of money. Portal "AutoVzglyad" considered one of these examples.

As Lada says. Online", the key element of the project was the Kia Optima multifunction steering wheel: in order to connect the Korean "steering wheel" (and in the "Grant" all buttons work without exception, plus an airbag is connected), about 30 rubles were spent.

Also, the domestic sedan got a gear lever from BMW, air ducts from Mercedes-Benz, as well as the Teyes media system, on the screen of which information from the car's CAN bus can be displayed.

The non-standard location of the "multimedia" required the manufacture of a special frame, which cost about 10 "rubles". The stars/stop button, additional cupholders, wireless charging and atmospheric interior lighting close the list of improvements.

It took about a year of time and 100 rubles of money for all the alterations. And this is just the beginning! The owner plans to introduce an electromechanical handbrake and electric seats. As the saying goes, no matter what the child amuses ...

In general, LADA car owners love all sorts of improvements. So, the owners of the old "Nivs" learned on their own to carry out restyling, an external instrument panel and a new type of air conditioning system. And now it is customary to fit taillights from the fresh Niva Travel to the Chevrolet Niva.
