Would have thought that is for any additional items over and above the factory fitted equipment  :huh:

I.e if you fitted a sub or amp etc

Hi there,

Generally you are only covered up to a certain amount, you can look into calling your insurance company to see if they can offer any additional add ons to extend it or include it into your modifications.

If it is an optional extra that was fitted from standard then most insurance companies cover this automatically. i.e optional extra sat nav.

Hope this helps,
