Wireless Back-Up Camera
A backup camera ensures the safety of you and your car. Easy and quick to install, it consists of a small camera integrated into a frame that you need to mount over your rear license plate.

This is especially useful while backing up the vehicle. Also, parking the car will be a bit easier with this nifty little tool! This prevents a fatal accident as well as an expensive dent.
Blind Spot Car Side Mirrors
The side mirrors, when driving a car, are our eyes! We use them to look for other vehicles behind us, calculate their distance, and act upon it. But the regular side mirrors that come with our cars have a blind spot. This is where the Blind Spot Car Side Mirrors comes in! They eliminate this blind spot to give us a wider vision. They are also 360° adjustable giving them an extra push in terms of reducing blind spot. This small investment has the potential to be a lifesaver.

Upgrade your experience behind the wheel with the Automatic Pro, a smart driving assistant which plugs into the OBD-II port of any car made after 1996. Thanks to its wide app gallery and constant 3G connection, this little guy can track your car, diagnose those frustrating engine lights that appear on your dashboard, and even call emergency services in case of an accident. This tool helps prevent an accident and also helps save you and your loved ones from the effects of one. A true-life saver! Although this accessory is not available in Nepal, the thought of having such a device is mind-boggling. Maybe in the near future!
Dash Cameras
A dash cam is a small onboard video camera that is either installed on the dashboard or could be attached to the interior wind screen. It can be a crucial tool for ensuring safety on the road and, concurrently, can come in handy for recording a memorable drive. This nifty little tool can be decisive in the event of an accident, being capable of providing evidence to law enforcement and insurance companies. It could also save you from potential scammers who intentionally fake an accident to get monetary benefits.
