My Winter Car Parts List & Catalog Packages

A comprehensive overview of Corris Rivett components, winter parts, and aftermarket packages. Learn where to order and how to manage the massive parts list.

Unlike its predecessor, building the Corris Rivett in My Winter Car isn't just about bolting pieces together from your garage floor. The parts list has expanded heavily, and acquiring them involves navigating mail-order packages, random classified ads, and trips to Fleetari's shop.

1. Where to Acquire Parts & Packages

Because there is no definitive pre-assembled "all-in-one package", you must hunt down specific parts across the map:

The AMIS Catalog (Mail Order Packages)

Found on the desk in your parent's garage. You use envelopes to send out money, and after a few days, your chosen packages will arrive at the local post office. This is the primary source for brand new aftermarket exhausts, tuning radiators, and suspension systems.

Classifieds Magazine (Marketti)

Purchased at the PSK convenience store. The classifieds rotate every Tuesday and Friday. You must use the phone to arrange pickups. Expect high randomness—these are often used parts, and you won't always know the exact condition until the package arrives.

Fleetari Repair Shop

Head to Fleetari for professional-grade rally packages, fresh tires, and precision engine components (like the Rally Cam). His parts are reliable and brand new.

2. Essential Winter Parts List

Without these specific winter parts, your Corris Rivett will not start or will crash within miles of your driveway:

❄️ Studded Tires (Winter Tires)

Standard summer rubbers are suicidal on Finnish icy roads. You absolutely need studded winter tires installed to gain any traction.

🔥 Engine Block Heater

Crucial for cold starts. At -20°C, the engine oil turns into sludge. Plugging in the block heater at your house or apartment warms the sump for a successful ignition.

🌡️ Heavy Duty Battery

Cold weather drains battery life significantly faster. Buying a fresh, high-CCA capable battery from PSK is highly recommended.

🛡️ Sump Guard (Skid Plate)

Hidden snowdrifts and solid ice clumps will rip the oil pan right off the Corris. A sump guard from Fleetari is basically mandatory.

📝 Pro Tip: Parts Tracking
Due to the sheer volume of bolts and engine internals, keeping track of every part is daunting. We highly recommend using a community-made "master parts list" checklist to track your bolt placements before firing up the engine.
