✅ reworking the panel of Priora 1 into Priora 2

04 July 2016 Lada.Online 144 783 42

After the next update, the Priora began installing a restyled dashboard in the car’s interior. A large display has become located in the center, which can display not only on-board computer information, but also navigation. We'll tell you how to change the old instrument cluster on a Priora or Kalina to a new instrument panel.

Body plastic

Body elements can be replaced. Replacing some components and adding accessories will turn the AvtoVAZ model into a normal car. Replacing the rear bumper on a VAZ will refresh and update the design. Replacing the front bumper will affect the performance and improve the power qualities of the engine. In addition, the following accessories are used for decorative purposes: spoilers, plastic, chrome trims. Stainless steel thresholds are installed to protect against dirt and damage. Changing the radiator grille to different shapes radically transforms the front view. A radiator grille in the form of a saber, in the form of a honeycomb, or stripes - any of these accessories will elegantly complement the design. Replacing the mirrors with the new se model will please the eye and expand the side view.

Modernizing the design and interior space, adding modern accessories increases the level of comfort, transforms the car, and improves technical characteristics.

Installation on the first generation Priora

To install the car radio in its original location, you need:

Disconnect the battery from the vehicle's on-board network.
Remove the 1DIN decorative frame with a box for small items from the center console of the instrument panel. The assembly is held in place by plastic latches located in pairs at the top and bottom of the drawer. Removal is carried out by pulling the part towards you; it is possible to bend the edges with a plastic mounting spatula.
The rear has mounting points for the factory patch harness equipped with ISO connectors. It is necessary to disconnect the plugs from the box, which is then set aside.
Connect the pads to the radio and check the operation of the device. Priora cars are supplied from the factory with a constant supply of positive power, independent of the position of the key in the ignition switch. It is necessary to change the wire connection, following the operating instructions for the head unit. The positive signal sent when the ignition is turned on is taken from the rear window heating button.
Lay the wire leading to the external antenna. The cable runs under the plastic trim of the A-pillars and the roof panel. To reduce the likelihood of noise, the wire is wrapped in fabric insulating tape or foam rubber.
Reinstall the removed trim elements.
Connect the antenna power from the ISO connector and check the functionality of the acoustic device in radio receiver mode.
Place the standard mounting shaft into the hole in the center console. The part is attached using tabs that are pressed out with a screwdriver. During installation, it is necessary to ensure maximum fit density, which will reduce vibrations of the radio when moving.
Connect the power, speaker and antenna plugs to the connectors on the back of the head unit. Place the radio in the guide shaft until the locking latches engage. Check the tightness of the installation, and then place the decorative frame in place.

To install a 2 DIN radio you will need:

Remove the front trim of the instrument panel along with the central air ducts.
Cut the connecting jumper between the standard socket for the radio and the plug. Expand the rectangular hole to the dimensions specified in the technical documentation for the head unit.
Using a saw, modify the plastic frame inside the instrument panel.
Place metal guide slides in the resulting window on the front trim and secure them by bending the triangular fasteners.
Reinstall the removed parts, and then connect the new head unit and insert it into the guide shaft.
Check the functionality of the equipment, configure the radio receiver and loudspeakers.
Install a decorative frame located around the perimeter of the front panel of the radio.

Installation

Replacing the old instrument panel without CAN with a dashboard with navigation without CAN (2170-3801010-50) is carried out without modifications. We remove the old panel and install a new one in its place, insert the connector with wires, connect the antenna (we fix it on the roof) and, if necessary, change the right steering column switch.

If the old instrument cluster without navigation, but with CAN, and instead of it it is planned to install a new dashboard with navigation with CAN (2170-3801010-60), then you need to rearrange contacts 10-11 to 28-29 (if after connecting it still does not work, change 28 and 29 places). See instrument cluster pinout.

After installing the new instrument panel, the mileage will be reset to zero.

Navigation in the instrument panel runs on Windows CE 6.0 along with Navitel software. It is possible to update the software and download navigation maps from a USB card via a special USB input. Operating the car will become much more pleasant, the only drawback is the high price.

Have you ever had to install a new type of instrument panel with navigation on a Priora or Kalina? What difficulties did you encounter during this revision? Let us remind you that on the Lada.online website you can find other instructions on tuning and modifying Lada Priora or Kalina cars, for example, how to adjust the electronic gas pedal or improve the brakes without modifications.

Interior

There is also a lot that can be changed in the interior space of the cabin. The interior of the Lada Priora is transformed as a result of tuning.

What does interior modernization consist of?

Replacing the steering wheel braid with leather;
Refinement of the instrument panel;
Parts are manufactured according to personal orders or sold in sets;
Replacement of door trim components, handles;
Replacement of factory plastic on the dashboard, inner surface of the doors;
Lada Priora interior reupholstery;
Installation of lighting on the inner surface of the doors, in the driver’s and front passenger’s foot areas;
Installation of LED strip in the area of the rear row of seats;
The seats are covered with covers.

The luggage compartment occupies a special place - it can be equipped with an additional protective floor covering. It is made of plywood and chipboard. Such flooring will perform a protective function and serve as the basis for placing additional acoustics. Installing independent operation of lighting accessories also plays an important role. The standard option is to turn on when the dimensions are on. Changing the trunk lid upholstery is carried out in order to provide additional sound insulation and smoother, softer closing of the compartment lid.

Manufacturer's modifications

Air intake mesh in frill

To ensure the supply of clean and fresh air to the interior of the Priora, the manufacturer has provided a cabin air purification filter. But since the holes in the frill for air intake are very large, which contributes to the fact that foreign objects and debris get into the filter and render it unusable. In order to correct this ailment, it is necessary to solder a metal mesh into the frill, which will protect the filter from debris. This will extend the life of the cabin filter.

Interior noise insulation

As you know, Russian cars are not famous for sound insulation, so domestic Kulibins do the sound insulation of their cars themselves. In order to make sound insulation in the Lada Priora, it is necessary to completely disassemble the interior and glue all the necessary places such as the floor, ceiling, doors, trunk and engine compartment. Sound insulation is glued in. several layers such as vibration, heat, noise. After which the car will be unrecognizable

Acoustic shelf

In a hatchback body on a Lada Priora, it is best to replace the rear parcel shelf with an acoustic one made of wood. Since the original shelf simply loses its shape and bends at extreme summer temperatures. In addition, a standard shelf creaks quite often.

Installation of the 5th gearbox support

On 16 valve engines, 4 engine mounts are installed from the factory. Two guitars and two props. On 8 valve engines there are 3 supports. Two supports and one gearbox cushion. Most owners of 16-valve cars prefer to install such a support on their engines. This support allows you to reduce the rattling of the gear shift lever, its jerking when moving and simply helps to securely secure the engine in the engine compartment. It should be noted that after installation, some vehicles experience increased vibration at idle.

Characteristics

There is a hole for the on-board computer on this panel

I bought this kit. The quality is normal. But there are several pitfalls that sellers are silent about. If you replace the old panel from the Priora with a new one, then there will be a little less problems, if you install it on the tenth family, then everything is sad. The kit does not include the following parts, which are not available in retail sales at all. 1. Air ducts (left, right) 2. Glove box lid lock latch 3. Glove box lid axle. In addition to this, the panel does not fit into the old style floor tunnel. There is a new sample for sale. But only its upper part, which also does not fit with the old lower part. But the lower part is not on sale anywhere, nor is the tunnel lining bracket.

What is good about the Lada Priora in Russia?

It was this model that became the first by AvtoVAZ to receive airbags and even air conditioning. Even though these were the most expensive trim levels, before Priora, no Russian car offered such amenities. Today this will not surprise anyone, but at the time of the launch of the model, such options could be considered a sign of the elite class. So, to some extent, Priora became a pioneer, giving impetus to the development of Lada.

It is also worth noting the following interesting features of the machine:

it is this model that has become a cult favorite in the North Caucasus, where Priora is considered a sign of luxury and real honor, especially if the suspension is lowered to the minimum ground clearance;
Surprisingly, the car has become one of the world leaders in terms of timing belt endurance - it lasts here (according to the factory) for 200,000 km, but all owners change it much earlier;
Kim Jong-un, the leader of North Korea, rode in this car, this indicates incredible trust in security systems and other technical solutions on the part of the ruler’s entourage;
the car practically did not change its appearance, and the only restyling affected only the interior; there were many changes in technical elements, but they all turned out to be insignificant;
over all the years of production, almost a million copies of this car were produced, so the car can be called successful, even if many critics call it a failed development.

It is difficult to form a unified opinion about a car that was bought by almost 1,000,000 people. Only a small part of the car was exported, although until today it was the Lada Priora that formed the main share of exports of the Russian automobile enterprise. Most likely, this model will be overtaken by Vesta in the coming years, but for now the record remains with the old man. Despite all the advantages, the car also had many disadvantages that have not painted the car to this day.

Conversion of Priora 1 torpedo into Priora 2

It's been so long since I wrote anything... a long time ago... does anyone miss you?

Well, okay, let’s get straight to the point)) I’ll say right away that work is going on and by the way, work is not only on the panel, it’s slow for certain reasons, but things are going and that’s the most important thing))

At the time of purchasing the Priora panel, there was a rush to install the panel from Priora 2, but since it is expensive, and the panel from Priora 1 came across to me very cheaply for my area, so I didn’t even think about refusing)) besides, I immediately had an idea do like Foks91 - buy a kit for converting Priora 1 into Priora 2 - Torpedo Priora 2. Upgrade kit. However, the price stopped me)) and I also didn’t like the fact that the monitor was installed a little far away, which would not be very convenient when using a tablet, and then I accidentally came across people making a visor for a tablet from a Kalina 2 Lux visor - this option interested me, if anyone is interested, I can provide a link send it to the VK group, this is not an advertisement))

Remaking the panel of Priora 1 into Priora 2

Many owners of Lada Priora 1 cars update the appearance and decorative elements of the interior by installing parts from Lada Priora 2. We also did not ignore the instrument panel , so we present to your attention a set of parts with which you can convert the old panel into the panel of a new one sample.
All parts are factory and suitable for installation on the first Priora. During installation, minor modifications to some seats may be required. Please note that the installation process is somewhat labor-intensive.

The price is for a set that includes:

Instrument panel upper trim,
New-style central console (glossy) with emergency warning button,
The upper wall of the glove compartment (differs from the old one in the presence of a hole for USB),
Air duct with an intermediate nozzle for joining with the central nozzle of Priora 2,
4 air ducts
Special metal brackets that attach the “central visor” to the “top trim”

The instrument panel of the new model does not include an ashtray, which in the first modification was located in the lower part, so if necessary, you can purchase a portable cylindrical ashtray from a Renault car, Lada Granta (see figure below)

Visor for Priora (for installing a tablet)

Information

Description: Hello everyone from the auto city of Togliatti! I would like to bring to public discussion the idea of installing the Visor we made on the panel of Priora 1 for installing a tablet as a multimedia system. Show in full…

After you mount the Visor on the car panel and install our prepared tablet with special software. On board your car you now have:

1. Navigator (you can install two or three different navigation applications). GPS and Glance support. Works without the Internet.

2. Engine diagnostics (using ELM327 adapter). Engine operating parameters are displayed on the tablet monitor.

3. Video and music (playing most formats; a tablet can do this better than car radios).

4. Internet. (4G via 2 Sim cards or via WI-FI)

5. Online TV with many (66) TV channels via 4G.

6. The tablet supports two SIM cards. so you can take calls without being distracted from the road! You can answer by installing a hands-free device on the visor.

7. Install the SD card and download music and videos onto it. We watch and listen to everything we “pump up”.

8. Warning about speed cameras and their location. (the database is updated). A graphic and sound warning of the presence of cameras is displayed on the monitor screen in advance of the camera itself.

Well, if we install an active hub. the one here you can hook everything. What do you have enough imagination for? from external drives to rear camera and perimeter cameras. )))The sound is output to the AUX input of the radio or via Bluetooth (if supported by the radio). I didn't even expect that the sound could be so high quality. it all depends on the quality of the recorded audio and video sound.

Improvements in the interior

Lux salon

If your car is not luxury, then you can give it this manually by purchasing an additional interior lamp from Priora Luxury, installing heated seats, sun visors from Luxury with a mirror. All these spare parts and accessories are sold in any car spare parts for Lada Priora.

Cases

Every car owner would like his car to remain in new condition for as long as possible. During use, seats are subject to a lot of wear and tear. In order to preserve the original appearance of the seats, it is best to put covers on them. There are a large number of different covers for taste and color. The cost of covers for a Priora varies from 1,500 rubles to 5,000 rubles, depending on the quality of the materials.

Steering wheel cover

With active driving, by 100,000 km, the steering wheel of the Priora begins to wear out. In order to protect it from wear and tear and an unsightly appearance, it is best to put a braid on the steering wheel. There are two types of braids that are put on the steering wheel and that need to be sewn together. Slip-on braids are easy to install, but do not completely cover the steering wheel. Stitched braids completely cover the steering wheel and protect it from damage, but are quite difficult to install.

Replacing Heater Switches

The interior heater switches in the Prior are not very nicely designed. In order to give them a more modern and beautiful look, they can be replaced with switches from Ford Focus. Such switches are not expensive and fit into the place of the standard Prior ones without any modifications. You can order them on AliExpress.

Rugs

Most of the time a person is inside a car. Therefore, it is important to maintain the frequency there. To do this, we will be helped by special EVA mats that perfectly retain moisture, unlike standard ones, and do not allow it to spill outside the mat. This is very important in winter, since snow that gets into the car with your feet begins to melt and form puddles in the cabin that can spill and an unpleasant smell of dampness in the cabin cannot be avoided.

Side mats

You can also install side mats between the door and the seat to protect your carpet from dirt. Such rugs are not expensive, around 400 rubles.

How to quickly remove the glove box on a Priora model car

In order not to damage the car interior, you need to know how to remove the glove compartment on a Priora correctly. The design of this part of a passenger car interior is more than simple. The procedure for removing the glove box will take several minutes. Sequencing:

Open the box lid by pressing the special button and lower it down until it stops.
There are restraints on the left and right sides of the trunk lid. After opening the lid, you need to release the right stopper with light finger pressure.
Then you need to do the same procedure with the second, left, limiter. Only after it is released it is necessary to move the part to the left.
Next, the glove compartment lid can be easily removed. If after all the manipulations it does not want to be released, you just need to gently pull it down.

Reasons for installing an air conditioner

Buying a premium Priora is a big expense that not everyone can afford. The vast majority of drivers are accustomed to changing their “iron horse” after some time, since many spare parts and components wear out, not to mention the fact that it becomes possible to purchase a car of a higher class. Domestic cars in budget configurations are quite popular among car enthusiasts with average earnings. After all, after a few years, you can sell the car and buy a completely new one, if you add additional savings to the amount received. Bearing in mind this scenario, many treat their car very carefully.

So, we bought a basic Lada Priora. This means that, in addition to air conditioning, you are deprived of the following options: 2 front emergency airbags (the luxury class contains 4), a multimedia system, a heated windshield and front seats, a stabilization system, a rain sensor, parking sensors, cruise control, fog lights and alloy wheels.

Comfort in the cabin is impossible without climate control

Of course, many drivers can do without these devices. But installing an air conditioner on a Priora is a reasonable decision. In addition, such an improvement significantly increases the value of the car upon its further sale.

Installing an air conditioner on a Priora affects not only the cooling of the interior. It can be mounted so that it also cools the car engine. Such a system will become indispensable in the functioning of the car and will create a cozy and comfortable environment inside the cabin.

Description

Installed to replace the old panel trim.

Completeness:

— Center console assembly (emergency warning button, compartment for buttons, plug)

— Air ducts (central with guides, side nozzles — 2 pcs.)

Hi all! The winter was long, and we had a lot of time to think about our future plans. Something is already on the schedule;) Spring is gaining momentum, the season is coming =) Today about one of the future changes. On the agenda is “A set of parts for the Priora 2 instrument panel for the conversion of Priora 1 to Priora 2.”

Why a kit and not a finished torpedo?

There are several “buts” that significantly influenced my choice.

The most important! Previously, a torpedo of the first edition was already purchased in excellent condition, minimal mileage and manufactured in 2013 (under the Panasonic climate). Bought for reasonable money + several spare parts were delivered at once. At the time of the search it was like this:

Before the purchase, it was sold with a black fuse box cover and a dark glove box...

They reduced the price and added gray parts from the 10th year. Now I bought them a replacement and black ones!

It was difficult to find a Priora 2 panel in the desired condition and configuration. The item is popular and so are the prices! Plus, all the offers are far from my city, delivery costs about 1500-2000 rubles. And don’t forget about the risk of damage during transportation... Ps: the first one arrived without any jambs.

“A set of parts for the Priora 2 instrument panel for the conversion of Priora 1 to Priora 2” are completely new, factory parts and a guarantee of an almost perfect appearance. Delivery from the store. Relatively inexpensive delivery due to its smaller size and volumetric weight (an important criterion for assessing the cost of transporting TC). In addition, it was possible to purchase other necessary items in one order.

So far I don’t see any significant downsides to such a purchase. There are still some issues with mounting it on the frame and removing the old cover. I would like to do it according to the factory and no worse =) In any case, it can be solved!

I’ll add (03/13/2016) Additional problems have come to light! The central part of the buildings (where the instruments and radio are) is different and 100% there will be problems with installing the Priora 2 tunnel, inserting the upper air ducts, and the upper and middle fastening of the console trim. As sad as it may be, “refinement with a file” is planned...! Previously, I thought the frames were completely identical and, according to the comments of the stores, they should be 1 in 1.

About the prerequisites that led to thoughts about the Prioro Salon.

Anyone in the know knows about the already installed Euro torpedo to replace the S.O. torpedo. Selection: Part 1 Other parts: Frame, Differences in wiring, Buttons, Assembly nuances, Installation of gear motor 2170., Pads and wiring, In the car

During the process of alterations, I answered a large number of questions on the topic of choice and I will say that now my position has not changed. Externally, I continue to like both options; the euro is good in its own way.

Design (appearance) is the first factor that often forms the first impression of a thing. The other side of the coin is the technical features and mechanical part. According to this criterion, the Priora torpedo is ahead.

Everyone evaluates external attractiveness in their own way, there is no point in arguing here because people have different tastes, but constructive solutions can be considered more objectively.

I will describe the most important ones for me.
1)
Air flow distribution system. Now the climate control is Panasonic, the flow direction pattern does not coincide with the standard geometry of the air ducts and damper complex. For example, by turning the handle of the unit to the foot blowing position, you get a direction towards the windshield. It is not possible to use the defroster (the function of blowing dry and warm air onto the windshield).

I think it’s clear) The electronics work correctly, but the mechanical part does not match the plastic.

Internal air ducts in the form of pipes.

More powerful air flow, good performance due to a minimum number of joints and losses. Compactness.

Fuse box compartment. Here it is radically changed, there is more space and a huge plus - a removable lid! Convenient access to electrics thanks to a completely open space.

What to do if the glove compartment rattles

For a used Lada Priora car, the issue of eliminating crickets becomes urgent - since the fasteners become loose, unnecessary sounds appear excessively often. The glove compartment on a Priora can become one of the causes of discomfort, because it will make “squeaking” sounds that you want to get rid of.

Noise sources may include the following:

Metal axes holding the lid. They fit tightly to the plastic, which is why they make a nasty sound. You can eliminate the problem in this way: the axles can be covered with electrical tape, and the plastic cells can be filled with bioplastic, which will soften the manifestation of the friction force.
Separately, it is worth mentioning that if the axles make squeaks near the mounting points, you can use electrical tape, or solve the problem radically, using glue.
Top part with metal fastenings. Pasting with an anti-creaking material will help - the same madeleine will do.
The inside of the drawer lid may also squeak. It will be enough to cover its inner surface with anti-squeak to solve the problem.

Covering with carpet

To cover the inside of the lid with a carpet that will prevent squeaking, first of all, you need to remove the plastic part according to the instructions. Attaching the carpet by reaching inside with your hands will be inconvenient, and you may miss an important section or even glue it crookedly.

For installation you will need a carpet (1 m by 1 m in size) and regular plastic glue. The size of the piece of carpet is determined by the fact that first you will have to make a “pattern” to cover the entire inside of the lid, and then close the “sides” so that the lid looks organic.

The mechanism of operation is simple: when the pattern is ready, cover the glove box lid with glue and place the carpet to size. Without it, only the fasteners (arc-shaped slide) and the lock should remain.

Life hack: upholstery of the glove compartment on a Priora – tools – material, instructions

For owners of 2170 there is a pre-prepared kit. No need to measure or cut anything. KozhDesignAvto LLC, which is located in Tolyatti, produces a kit with ready-made carpet parts. The back is covered with wide strips of double-sided tape, so no tools are needed.

The manufacturer recommends gluing at a temperature of 15°C with average humidity. In order for the cover to fit correctly on the box lid, you should dismantle it, first applying the carpet to check the edges.

Technical improvements

Firmware or chip tuning

In order to improve the speed and agility of your car, you can flash the ECU of the Lada Priora for not very much money. This is done by qualified specialists. Using the firmware, you can customize the car as you wish, whether it is an economical car or a fast car.

Exhaust installation

As you know, a catalyst was installed on the Lada Priora. On cars with high mileage, it often gets clogged and fails, which slows down and slows down the car; replacing it is quite expensive. But there is a way out: replacing the exhaust with a spider without a catalyst. After replacing the catalyst with a spider. The Priora ECU will need to be re-flashed. For a more complete tuning of the Lada Priora exhaust, you can lay out the entire exhaust route. Which is not a cheap activity.

Replacing camshafts

Replacing camshafts with sports ones will increase the speed of the car and make it easier to accelerate and improve dynamics. Such work should be carried out in trusted service stations with subsequent adjustment of the electronic engine control unit.

Lightweight flywheel

Installing a lightweight flywheel will allow the engine to spin faster, thereby gaining speed faster. It was noted that when installing a lightweight one, the car has to move away at higher speeds.

Perforated brake discs

When replacing brake discs, it is best to immediately install perforated brake discs for the Lada Priora. These discs are very well ventilated, which allows them to heat up less and protects the pads from rapid wear.

Self-locking differential

A self-locking differential is installed in the gearbox, which allows both front wheels to spin simultaneously. As a result, a more reliable start from a place is ensured. Installing such a differential is quite difficult; the difficulty lies in adjusting it.

When will we see the new Lada Granta

As the AUTOSTAT agency reports with reference to Lada dealers, production of the restyled Granta family is planned to begin this August. Now we will talk about four body types: sedan, liftback, hatchback and station wagon. As a result, the Kalina model will cease to exist.

The so-called “restyling family” of Lada Granta is planned to be presented at the Moscow Motor Show 2018. Also, as the media recalls, at the end of 2015, AvtoVAZ stopped the production of Lada Priora hatchbacks and station wagons, while keeping only the sedan on the assembly line, since approximately 80% of sales were accounted for by this body type.

Will there be a new model instead of the Priora - what are AvtoVAZ’s plans?

Most likely, the company is preparing space for new models, removing outdated and not so logical cars from production. But these are unlikely to be replacements for Priora and Kalina. The problem is that B-class sedans have oversaturated the company’s model range; other segments are needed that AvtoVAZ could cover with its products. For now, specific plans exist only on paper, and they can change a lot. Nevertheless, we can safely declare the following options for the concern’s actions:

the discontinuation of cars that have begun to lose their liquidity in the new car market; over time, this will happen even to Grant, which was recently updated and released a facelift;
proposal of a completely different concept for the development of Lada, as a joint venture with Renault-Nissan, selection of technologies that could be introduced for Russian production;
the creation of 5-6 new models that will not replace the old ones, but will create a completely new image of the manufacturer and make it more profitable in the eyes of customers, will help raise the company’s image;
constant updating of the offered assortment in order to prevent models from becoming obsolete, that is, working on the principle of modern European concerns in their profitable niches;
Gradual addition of the model range and the withdrawal of those models that do not meet sales expectations will help the company remain profitable and interesting for investors.

Such development will ensure not only the growth of AvtoVAZ as a concern, but also the constant emergence of new domestic vehicles. Of course, the key to success in such a model will be the quality of production. Russians are ready to buy a car that may not have the best appearance, but one that is comfortable, durable and of high quality. So far, the budget segment does not offer many such options, and on this wave Lada can become a favorite national manufacturer.

We suggest you look at the last review of Lada Priora:

Let's sum it up

Modern cars are not the privilege of the AvtoVAZ concern, at least until today. But the company is striving to change its status and gain greater recognition in its state and beyond. Today, buying a new Lada is no longer as unusual as it used to be. The company began promoting its new models, which turned out to be of quite high quality, durable, and interesting in appearance. The cars have a good character, which allows them to take first place in sales in their class without much difficulty.

Despite the fact that many buyers are dissatisfied with Lada's pricing policy, the concern continues to develop and maintain a leading position in sales in certain segments. Today, the manufacturer’s products are even supplied to Central European countries and are beginning their promotion in this difficult market. But Lada Priora will no longer be a participant in this banquet. Most likely, the company is minimizing its model range in order to expand it into new segments and create more constructive competition in the market. What do you think about the removal of one of the most popular VAZ models from the assembly line?

Appearance

Currently, tuning for VAZ cars has a wide range of choices. Since Russian-made cars are quite inexpensive, this attracts their buyers. Tuning for Lada cars is also available and can be found in almost any city.

Tinted glass

To give your car a beautiful appearance, the first step is to tint it. Car tinting is relatively inexpensive, ranging from 2,000 to 3,000 rubles. But after tinting, your car will shine with new colors. It is legally possible to tint car windows only from the rear. Since the light transmittance of the film is not so high, viewing in the evening will be difficult.

Lip installation

To give the car a stylish look, you can install a lip on the front instead of the standard fangs under the bumper. There are several types of lips. The rubber lip “Samurai” and the plastic lip from the Chevrolet Cruze fit perfectly on the Priora bumper. The lip should be secured under the bumper with self-tapping screws. The price of the lip is from 500 to 1000 rubles.

Lipspoiler

In the days of the nines, when our fathers raised the rear of the car by installing spacers under the rear shock absorbers and installing huge spoilers like in Need For Speed. Nowadays, it is stylish to lower a car; by the way, you can read how to properly lower a car on our website, and install a small spoiler that is glued to double-sided tape. The price of such a spoiler varies within 1000 rubles.

Alloy wheels

Everyone knows that the wheels of a car are the floor of the car, so the wheels of your car should be beautiful and you like them. On the Lada Priora you can install wheels with a radius ranging from R14 to R17. When installing R16 and R17 wheels, you will have to buy low-profile tires, which is very expensive and not practical, but at least beautiful. When installing disks with a large radius, comfort is lost and the chassis begins to work rougher since the rubber does not “eat up” minor road irregularities.

It is best to install R14 and R15 wheels. Such wheels are relatively inexpensive and the tires for such a radius are high profile. It follows that the comfort of driving a car will not be lost.

SE caps and mirror repeaters

In order to give your car a little luxury, you can install turn signal indicators in the prior mirrors and turn signal plugs in the wings on the SE. This modification is relatively expensive, but it significantly changes the appearance of the car and gives it a certain “richness”.

Sabers and bars

This is an amateur modification and is most often suitable for cars with a dark body color. The rear chrome-plated trunk saber and the front chrome-plated hood saber are painted matte black. This modification is very cheap and simple, but it has its own zest and is relevant when the chrome on sabers begins to swell, which is very common on Priors.
