You must declare all your mods. What mods do you have, and who is the insurance with?

declare the exhaust and filter as they arent small mods, think backlights are okay but tell them about it anyways and alloys will deffo need to be declared.
speakers dont need to be declared tho..

As far as i know! Quinn Direct don't charge any extra for modifications?
I had a corsa and modded it rang them up and they said they don't charge any extra for mods and they don't cover then full stop!
e.g. if they get damaged or stolen that counts even if you are fully comprehensive
hope this helps
