Chevrolet Cruze is one of the popular models. The car has a stylish design, good driving characteristics and an ergonomic interior. The model has an adequate price tag, thanks to which it is popular among a wide segment of the population. To stand out from the car crowd and bring the interior ergonomics to the level of premium models, drivers are tuning the Chevrolet Cruze.
Salon
Tuning the interior of a Chevrolet Cruze allows you to improve the comfort of the car and give the interior space of the car a unique style.
Noise insulation
The standard sound insulation of the Chevrolet Cruze in most cases does not cause any complaints. However, if the car has a good mileage, then tapping, creaking and “crickets” will accompany the driver and passengers on their journey. To avoid this, the interior is treated with rubberized mastics and the inside is covered with special soundproofing materials. In similar ways, they improve the sound insulation of the hood of a car, the walls of the engine and luggage compartments.
Acoustics
The standard acoustic system does not cause any complaints among ordinary drivers, but music lovers always strive for ideal sound. Therefore, the standard speakers are replaced with more powerful ones, and a large subwoofer is installed in the trunk of the car. With this tuning, the useful volume of the luggage compartment will decrease several times.
To achieve optimal sound, the playing device is also changed. The standard sound system is replaced with a more functional multimedia system, and a stylish touch screen appears on the car’s dashboard.
Padding
Interior tuning involves replacing standard finishing materials in order to give the interior space individuality. When decorating the interior of the Cruise, drivers are not limited to using one tone - the panels, steering wheel, dashboard and seats can be decorated in two or three colors.
Other items
As part of the tuning, LED lighting for the glove box and instruments is installed on the dashboard. The lower edges of doorways are equipped with the same lighting, which, in addition to the aesthetic role, also plays a practical role. The presence of illumination makes it much easier to get in and out of the car at night.
Required Tools
To replace a headlight, the car owner will need the following set of tools:
- a Phillips screwdriver with a straight blade for removing decorative latches;
- ratchet with a set of heads;
- TORX 15 head;
- socket wrench;
- jack.
It is most convenient to unscrew the fasteners at the bottom of the bumper by placing the car on the inspection hole.
If the car owner is faced with replacing headlights for the first time, then it is recommended to purchase a bracket before installing the optics. If dismantled carelessly, it can easily break. The repair kit has the article number CVCRZ09-400-L.
Acoustics
Musical accompaniment in the cabin is also of great importance, and music lovers strive for ideal sound. The standard factory speakers are replaced with powerful ones, and a subwoofer is installed in the rear of the car. But it is worth considering the fact that with such tuning the trunk volume will decrease to unrecognizable sizes.
In order to achieve ideal sound, drivers also change the playback device. Standard radios are being replaced with functional and touchscreen multimedia, which not only allow you to listen to music in high quality, but also give the interior a more modern look.
Interior
Typically, tuning a car interior begins with installing new acoustics and sound insulation.
Noise insulation
First, the panels are glued with rubber-based vibration-insulating sheets. For the full effect, everything needs to be “noisy” - the doors, floor, roof, luggage compartment, hood, etc. The interior needs to be disassembled, everything needs to be glued with a vibration isolator, rolling it in with a roller, and then soundproofing material must be glued onto it. Splen is usually used as such. It also needs to be glued evenly. You can drive the Chevrolet Cruze to a station where the experts will do everything,
Acoustics
Next comes the turn of acoustics. A component type is used for this. The number of speakers, their characteristics, the presence or absence of tweeters (tweeters), a subwoofer, an amplifier, the quality of wiring, etc. - all this varies. Accordingly, the price tag will vary.
Padding
One of the most expensive types of tuning Chevrolet Cruze. The interior is upholstered with various materials:
- eco-leather – about 53,000 rubles;
- a combination of genuine leather and substitute - about 60,000 rubles;
- genuine leather - approximately 65,000 rubles;
- genuine leather with Alcantara (suede) - almost 90,000 rubles.
Naturally, such events are carried out exclusively in a certified studio.
Multimedia
Chevrolet Cruze owners often purchase advanced multimedia systems. The price starts at approximately 16,000 rubles. for DAYSTAR DS-7045HD. The average price is about 25,000 - 30,000 rubles. for devices such as INTRO, DAYSTAR DS-7049HD 3S NEW, etc. The most expensive ones are priced at 40,000 - 45,000 rubles. – type DayStar ANDROID 4.2.2, REDPOWER 18045 HD ON ANDROID 4.2+, etc.
As you can see, tuning the Chevrolet Cruze is very multifaceted and interesting. But with a serious approach, especially with reupholstering the interior, purchasing fiberglass body panels and expensive multimedia, the cost of this event will easily exceed 150,000 rubles!

A simple and affordable way to modify headlights
The first step is to remove the standard headlights of the car; to do this, unscrew the four screws one by one from the bumper fender liner. After this, unscrew the two screws with the pistons securing the bumper and carefully remove them from the main fasteners. Next, use a 7 key to unscrew the screw securing the headlight to the body and remove it. Before starting work, be sure to remove the negative terminal from the battery.
It is almost impossible to remove the glass from the headlight using heat in the case of the Chevrolet Cruze 2013, 2014 model, since the manufacturer uses a special adhesive-sealant that is not subject to heat. Therefore, the only way is to carefully cut it with a mini grinder with a special disk at the gluing points. Then the cut will need to be carefully soldered.
Chevrolet Cruze headlight tuning
After this, remove the chrome-plated headlight reflector. Use sandpaper to remove the coating layer. Using a special waterproof paint, paint the reflector a different color (for example, matte black) and leave to dry for several hours.

In addition to painting, you can install LEDs of different colors inside the headlight, and also perform external tinting using a special film. Film is a convenient option if you don’t want to remove the headlights from the car.
Engine
Dynamic and traction characteristics can be improved independently by installing Pedal Booster (booster pedal) or Zeigen I-Boost (gas booster). The price tag for these devices is about 6,500 rubles. and 5,500 rub.
Chip tuning
But there is another way - engine chip tuning. Moreover, it can be implemented both for 1.6-liter or 1.8-liter naturally aspirated engines, and for a 1.4-liter turbocharged engine.
It is worth considering that a noticeable increase in efficiency is obtained only on cars with a 1.4-liter engine. After all, it has a turbocharger, and by changing the parameters of its geometry, the output of the power unit increases - up to 30%!
Regarding atmospheric engines, it is more difficult with them. After all, all the tuner can do is change the ignition timing and also adjust the fuel supply. Such measures can increase power by 5-7%. Naturally, such an increase will hardly be noticeable, but the engine will work more elastically and smoothly, and fuel consumption can be reduced.
