As we continue to experience frequent showers brought about by the rainy season, we need to be more aware of how it impacts our daily lives, from our homes to our rides. Come rain or shine, it’s important to prepare and equip your car and make sure that it’s ready to take on the force of a great typhoon.
Hella, a leading European manufacturer of auto parts, presents a quick rundown of the parts that matter for safer travels, especially when you’re driving on a slippery road.
Wipers
wipers leave a streak of water on your windshield, then it’s time to change them. Hella offers different wipers that perform well under the rain. Featuring nanotechnology graphite-coated rubber blades, Hella wipers provide a smooth and quiet operation delivering clear visibility at every point. These are the Premium Wiper Blade, Curvo Wiper Blade and Razor Wiper Blade.
Horns
With zero visibility, drivers can use their horns to signal the cars in front of them. Make sure your car’s horns are still producing loud and crisp sound because if it isn’t, consider having them replaced. HELLA has horns with varying sounds that are suitable for all weather conditions. Some of the horns include compact with optimal sound projection like the Compact Horn, soft timbre and mellow sound for a more harmonic tone like the Royal Twin Tone trumpet horn, and a strong penetrating tone that is ideal for tough off-road use like Super Tone Horn. They have twice the lifetime of original equipment (OE) specifications, are corrosion-resistant, and can be installed easily in tight and limited spaces.

Lights
When you encounter zero visibility caused by the heavy rainfall, your lights immediately become an indicator of your location and a signal that other drivers can use to navigate. Make sure that your lights are clean, bright, and working. Hella bulbs have wider field and longer range of clearer vision that’s suitable for rainy weather, allowing faster reaction time for safer driving. They employ high-quality UV-filtered quartz glass which reduces eye strain. They come in two variants: PowerBleu and Platinum performance bulbs, both designed for easy plug and play installation and directly interchangeable with original equipment (OE) bulbs. Designed for style-conscious car enthusiasts, PowerBleu bulbs offer a superb brightness of white daylight with its blue coating and silver top finishing. Platinum bulbs offers up to 100% more light, providing maximum visibility for road safety.
