But it's only a one time thing. Did you recently change insurance companies? If you're with a broker, then you might have to ask your broker |

Most of the basic insurance companies won't insure aftermarket parts, in fact they don't want to insure you if you have aftermarket parts in many cases. So I wouldn't tell them about the parts if they don't ask. On the flip side if something happens to your car you won't be covered for the cost of the aftermarket parts. I think there are some classic car insurance companies that will insure you for aftermarket parts. I've often worried about the cost of my hardtop as it is worth 1/2 price of the vehicle value right now, as it stands I'm not insured for the top. Thinking about going to a classic car insurance company in the future just to get more coverage. |
There are certain parts that aren't necessarily DOT that I wouldn't mention that most of us probably have but I was thinking things like wheels or ya your hardtop. But I guess it's probably better not to open that can of worms.

When I contacted my insurance company last week to reactivate full coverage, they again asked about aftermarket parts/electronics etc. I told them there wasn't any, but I actually replaced the head unit and I will probably have the dashcam in there this year.

sorry guys, i should of ask do i need to do safety every season? E-test every couple of years or every year depending on the age. You'll get a notification / letter from service ontario whenever you need it to get your new sticker [/quote] Is the insurance company going to pay you for the cost of the saftey and etest plus your time? I would laugh if they asked me to do that. That is a Provincial thing, nothing to do with insurance. If you have a plate with legit stickers, insurance shouldn't care about those things. If they do, shop around. |
You guys are mistaking a DOT safety, and the vehicle condition inspection they ask for due to age. I have shopped around, anything older then 15 years and they now require the inspection. It's a form to be filled out by a mechanic about the exterior and interior condition and/or modification. If you know a mechanic it costs you nothing
