It's a lug nut brush, it did a good job cleaning up months of grime, but it takes some elbow grease and time.  I don't mind putting in the time to get results, and I'd recommend this product to anyone else that wants a detailed finish to their wash.  Worked wonders on my WRX wheels.
The bristles on the brush are basically strands of stiff plastic and I have not found it to do any cleaning at all around the lug nuts. Save your money.
Griot's Garage makes quality products and I have occasionally purchased items from their catalog.  When I came across this lug nut clean brush, I saw an opportunity to use the right tool for the job.  It works as I expected.
Saving knuckles is important and this is the tool to have.  Saves so much time and energy getting in and around lug nuts.  This was a replacement for one that I already had, and had been using for 5 years.  One of my kids decided to use it to uncover dinosaur bones and ruined the brush.
This works well for lug nut cleaning but it could be a bit stiffer to work better.  You just need to use a lot more cleaner instead.
I am a bit of a fanatic when it comes to keeping my car clean, so this was another tool to add to my arsenal of brushes for getting in to difficult areas without damaging anything. Works fine and is stiff enough to get out the dirt.
I am on the fence with this product.  Being from Griot's I know they have a lot of depth of products for car care so I thought I would give this a shot.  The bristles are very stiff, almost too stiff.  They don't want to fit around the lug nuts and when they do, they end up bending the bristles.  And I know what you are thinking, it was my wheels, well I tried it on 2 totally different styles of wheels to see if it made any difference and not much.  If your lug nuts are exposed, its probably okay.  If they are recessed, I would look for another product.  And where is it made?  No clue, couldn't find any stampings or label on the packaging to note country of origin.
I haven't used this product yet but expect it will do a better job than the toothbrush I was using!  I use it with two other effective products available on Amazon, Sonax 230200-755 Wheel Cleaner and Mothers Wheel Brush.  If you have invested in chrome wheels, these products can really make those wheels sparkle.  Brake dust is hard to remove, but these products do the job.
I was expecting something that I could push onto my lug nuts and twist and the lug nuts would come clean, but the bristles seemed to weak... maybe I got the wrong thing, but this isn't for me and it's just gonna sit in my shed...
I have washed these towels several times and I cannot get them to stop shedding like a dog. They are wonderfully soft, thick and plush but they just keep shedding fibers like mad.
Washed them first they are very good towels for buffing your car will buy more to dry car off when done washingI highly recommend this product
These microfiber towels are very thick and are great for buffing off wax residue, polishing, and general detailing. They are holding up very well after a few washes.
Good price and fast delivery.  I just had my car painted and these cloths are excellent for washing drying the car and also for applying and removing wax.  They are very soft and won't scratch the paint as will sponges and shammeys.
I was looking for a micro fiber towel for use with quick detail sprays and decided to try these. I am not that impressed with them. Even though they are thick and soft they seem to leave the fine micro fiber hairs on the car like lint. I now use them for washing the vehicle and seem to work fine for that.
I love thse towels, very soft, perfect size.I use then to wash my car and to remove polishes and waxes.Tip: wash them before use, they will not shed after you wash them, absolute no shedding.Also use them when I do a Rinseless wash, they are very plush so they trap the dirt deep down inside the fibers keeping the dirt away from your paint.I gave it five stars for so many reason.Great price too.
I really like these towels a lot.  They are soft and absorbent with a soft silk type edging.  If they were borderless I would give them 5-stars.
They are very soft and absorbent and so far are staying that way after washing them a few times. They are a decent size too.
Wanted extra outlets in my truck for an FM Transmitter for my iPod, charger for the iPhone/GPS, a heated seat and reverse sensor. Fits them all perfectly and the mount meant I was able to mount it and never worry about it getting smacked around or tossed about when not using.
Great useful unit. It easily enables me to power my cell phone, blue tooth ear piece, GPS device, and my passengers electronic devices all at the same time.
When you're in a car with two cell phones and two kids with DSi's and DVD players, you need more than the standard two outlets that most vehicles provide. This was a great investment and is perfect for traveling, especially with a family and a lot of electronics.It is kind of bulky but I don't know how you would get rid of that without having the four outlets.Some of the plugs are tight going in but stay put and come out with a good pull.
I have 1 DC socket in my car (Honda CRV). This thing is exactly what I was looking for! I have my GPS, portable DVD player, Phone Charger & DC/AC power inverter connected to all 4 sockets, plus an iPod cord in the USB port to charge my iPod. It has a great bracket so you can attach it somewhere in your car. I'm thinking of using velcro to attach it, rather than screws. 1 of the 4 sockets is spring loaded, so you can put your cigarette lighter in that one if you needed to. The rest of the 3 sockets are regular. But all 4 work great! The whole thing is just very convenient and I wouldn't change a thing about it.
The 4 12V outlets are very handy the cable seems to be heavy enough, the light on the unit is a bit bright for my application and the USB outlet is WAY handy!
Good 1 to 4 car DC power duplicator. The power light would not turn on until I turn the car key to accessory which is good. It will not unnecessarily drain the car battery. Construction materials seems solid. I can connect to my car power ports in the front and in the back. The attached electrical cord comes in handy when positioning the duplicator in the car. The USB port is a bonus. Price is good. I give this product 5 stars.
I actually installed this backward so the USB port and LED light were facing toward me, and put the cigarette lighter connecters in the back. makes it slightly less ugly if you use multiple devices that stay plugged in.  I plug in my phone, tablet, Satellite radio and GPS. The feel is substantial, the connector plugs are very snug after multiple weeks of use. I previously purchased a Bell multi-socket adapter and it didn't come close to this quality - the Bell one constantly popped out. This one say's put. highly recommended.
I ordered this based on other reviews that emphasized how well made and rugged it was- and those reviews were absolutely correct. The case is tough and flexible and not likely to crack. The mounting bracket is wide enough to provide good support with either the included screws or the included adhesive patch. I used the adhesive to mount it at the top of the shelf above the glove box in my 2003 Honda Element, where it stays solidly attached.
This is very nice, we can plug into the cigarette lighter and have 4 ports for other electronics, just wish it had more than 1 USB port
Great product. Am able to charge all of my toys along with using the USB Port. I have affixed it to the side and works very well.
I use this product on my van to charge phones, GPS, power converter. There are many pros and a minor con:Pros:1) It has its own fuse like car's. So it is cheap to replace the fuse.2) The cable is quite long (more than 2 feet) so kids in the back seats can use it too.3) One of four sockets is for cigarette, so it can be used to replace the taken socket.4) Extra USB port is quite useful. Since many wall USB cables to charge phones are detachable, I can use a cable and hook it up to the USB port to charge phones/tablet.Con:The front LED light is quite bright and can not be adjustable, I have to use tape to reduce it. I really should give it 4.5 stars but I could not.I've just have it a couple of weeks. Still works fine so far
I ordered this unit to run my emergency light, cell phones, and other electronics in my plow truck.Super high quality unit, and even comes with an adapter that has a built in fuse (standard push in fuse) that's easily replaced should you overload the unit in use.  I cut that end of, and hardwired it to my additional fuse panel that I run for all my electrical add-ons, so I didn't even use my trucks cigarette lighter.Great buy !
I bought this as a gift to my husband for our jeep wrangler. It came really fast, and I had every intention of installing it myself so that he would see it when he came home. Unfortunately there are a couple screws that are much easier to place into the bumper if you are using two people. The instruction manual definitely only shows one person doing this, but it was a lot more convenient to have the help of another person. Other than that the light bar fit perfect, its strudy and it looks good because it is not huge in comparison to other light bars. Once we installed two spot lights it looked even better and the spot light fit perfectly even tho they were a different brand. Good buy, recommend it.
Put this on my 2012 Black JKU took me a second to figure out that I didn't NEED to cut or mod anything. The screws are a serious pain in the @$$ as far as installing but just neded some patience...maybe would of been easier to take off front bumper?!?! ....I have 3 of the KC 130 watt slim-lites on it...like it! Think it is pefect for those of us that want an easy light bar on the stock bumper.....Oh, only thing I did to the bar was drilled holes by where the lights mounsso i could run the wiring through the bar (fun times!) ...down to the mount where I drilled through the round mounting bracket to keep the clean look...after the wires were connected and everything tighted up then got some stuff (forget the name) that closed/filled in the gaps left by the holes I drilled for the wires on the bar...overall very happy..
I did contact the seller before it arrived to make sure it would fit my 2012 JK Unlimited. I was told that it would fit with no problems. Wrong, I had to modify the plastic tray between the bumper and grill. In fact, I made a new panel becuse I did want to cut up the factory one. It does look good after I did the mods, which I was informed that I would not have to do.
First, the good...  So, I have a 2013 Jeep JK and you DO NOT need to cut anything to mount this bracket.  I almost did but kept playing with it until I FINALLY figured it out.  Do not give into temptation and cut the plastic piece between bumper and grill - trust me - it will work.  It's a pain to mount but it does work.Now, for the bad.  I bought this because it was a &#34;Mopar&#34; product.  It showed up in a box with a Mopar sticker over another sticker.  The directions clearly stated it came from Rugged Ridge (their version of the same product was $15 less expensive).  I haven't mounted the lights yet but it looks like it will work out pretty well.
I like this light bar hear are a couple reasons one it is consider a oem part and will bolt right on to you jk jeep plus for me I didn't want a light bar that was taller then my hood and I wanted a bar that behind the bumper so it work for me
Nice bar but doesn't fit my 2012 JKU w/mod. The holes in the lower bracket don't match the holes in the frame. You'll have to drill.
I bought this before I studied the Kelvin charts for color. Pretty bright, not as bright as 1156 and extremely unpleasant color for my RV interior. May be good for tail light or such, but the light reminds me of standing under a blueish street light.
I have purchased a few of these at a time, replacing the lights on our 2012 Heartland Torque fifth wheel.  The first light I changed over was the porch light, and I have had the light on for more than a year!  We live full time in the trailer so battery usage is critical. The LED bulbs reduce power consumption dramatically.  The UV testers did not do much for me but the bulbs are great and very cost effective.  I am not sure how long they will last, but some of the bulbs are reaching two years old and they are still burning bright!
I bought these based on past reviews and I have to say these bulbs work awesome on the outside lights for a 2002 Forest River Sport toy hauler, nice and bright. We mainly camp off the grid and rely on battery so upgrading incandescent lights to LEDs is a big benefit consuming 1/10th the power.  These lights are blue/white and bright! They work very well for outdoor lighting and loading lights on the back of our toy hauler.
Installed these replacement bulbs from Amazon for my RV without a hitch. These are brighter than the original, and use 9.5% of the power [.14 amps vs 1.49 amps] of the 1141 bulb. not inexpensive, but the circuit was maxed out and I had to do something to reduce the load.
Replaced almost all the overhead 1141's with these.  They are really much whiter of a light, and I love em.  Plenty of room for them as they are almost identicle size to the stock bulbs, but as you know, LED's draw much much less power.  Highly recommend these especially to RV owners.
Low energy.  Good light. Easy to install.  Everything I wanted.  I am very glad I bought it.  Don't know what to do with the silly detector.
I bought several LEd lights for my RV to test them out, and this one was way too blue for my taste.  Bright for the lower number of LEDs it has, but the light doesn't match my other bulbs and looks un-natural to me.
Only regret us not changing to these sooner. More light, I like the bluer light, less drain on the12V  system and they should never burn out.
I must have 20 1156 bulbs from various places.  (all chinese made I am sure)  This one is the only one that works without adding a ballist resistor. (YMMV)  With newer cars  this is a plus.  Now you will still get a warning that a bulb is out, but at least it works.  The other bulbs I have that do not work in the newer cars seem to work in the older cars. So as family comes over I slowly replace the bulbs on my families cars with the box I have sitting around that don't work on my MINI.
I bought these to replace the incandescent bulbs in our RV interior ceiling lights.  I was looking for similar brightness.  They sure are!  They are a bluish white light (6000K) but not glaring. Because I boondock (dry camp) with a solar charging system and need to conserve batteries I need these lamps.  The old bulbs drew 3.7 amps while these only draw 0.2 amps!  I will replace all the rest now!  I have only used them for one week so far so hard to tell if they will last.
I bought 3 different high rated LED lamps to replace 1411 tungsten lamps and of the three this produced the best light, both in terms of brightness and in having a clean white light. This will be my LED of choice for the additional 1411 bulbs I will be replacing.
This is no better than scotch tape.  I thought it was going to be a flexible fabric type product.  Instead it is like a plastic tape that doesn't stay stuck. I do not recommend this product.  It's a waste of money.
It's works, waddya u want?  I like this because it is thicker then most tapes, it grabs more material thus making a stronger bond.  Double edge sword though because the repair is more visible then using thinner tape.  I say to hell with the looks, but if you a panzy who cares about looks, but the thin one.
This Tape is intended for awning repair, but it will do a lot more.  The distinctive advantage of this tape is that it will resist heat, and will not gum up like its distant cousin, Duct Tape.  Yes, it will repair an awning, or a boat/car/motorcycle cover.  I have seen it go through a washing machine cycle.  The adhesive is strong, and will not decay as regular duct tape will.
this product is great. repaired my daughters awning that had a fight with the wind. it had a few splits and puckers. this tape did a fantastick repair//
A fast and easy way to repair those small rips or tears that appear in your awning.I keep a round a roll for on the road.
I first washed the awning with soap and water and then used acetone to remove any unseen films.  After applying, the tape stuck for a few minutes and then peeled off.  Admittedly, this is strong but if only it would have stuck I would've been happy.  It may me that my awning was too porous since it was/is old.  If you have a newer awning, you might get lucky and it will adhere.
I had a rip in my RV awning approx 6 inches long and didn't want to buy a new awning so I purchased this tape to solve the problem.  I cleaned the awning surface with acetone and applied the tape.  It stuck very well to the awning and the rip is barely noticeable.
After 1.5 months in the sun it ROTTED out. Not made for outside awnings as advertized. DO NOT BUY THIS JUNK!
Got these to add a bit more LED lighting to my Yamaha Roadstar.  These lights went up under the saddlebags to throw blue light onto the chrome pipes and wheels, and they do a great job.  Bright as heck, well made, look to be totally waterproof, Easily installed, the 3M tape holds them securely in place on the saddlebag mount.  100% satisfied, and highly recommend!
Not sure about the longevity of the leds. I put them on my motorcycle to add some accent lights. Very nice glow that isn't overpowering.
hooked these strips up to my amp for my subs and the beat with the music. these are great. sweet
I put two strips in the footwells and put the other two in the trunk because 3 of the leds from one of the strips didn't light up. The 3M tape in the back of the strip was ok and the wire was about a 24 gauge or maybe smaller so its a little hard to work with. I put up a pic of the two in the footwells. overall these are way better than another set i bought from another seller, these dont start to flicker after a few minutes of being on like the others. Ive had these on for more than an hour at times when driving and no flickering!
I put these in my car and ill say they are very bright!  I covered half of it with tape and that fixed the issue.  Th only problem with these is that the gauge is very high probably a 25 and is hard to work with when stripping the wires.  Other than that I am very satisfied.
This is my second order. My first I used as moon lighting in my 90 gallon cichlid tank. I simply attached the 4 pcs. to my strip light, wired to a transformer and bingo "moon" lighting. This order was used for my motorcycle. You can buy kits here on amazon, but I wanted to be able to customize and save a ton of money. These worked out great and look awesome on my bike. I'll post pictures soon.
got four of these and two of them dont work,sending them back. i would buy them somewhere else,these are very short and not that bright anyway.
First time using this product, reading the reviews I knew it would work (once applied) but was worried that it might darken the plastic or leave smearing. It did not do this, it was super easy  to apply and went on without incident. It also did not leave any grease. It's expensive, but worth it.
I love to keep our vehicles looking good,perhaps to a fault.I have used every major vinyl and rubber protectant  on the market, after trying this for the first time,I am hooked.The other reviews says a lot of great things about this product and I think they  are correct.303 puts a protective layer on interior and exterior surfaces.You can really see this film on the surface that is different then any other product.Its a satin finish that has a great look.Just apply and wipe off with a microfiber towel.I will do an update after applying to all the interior and exterior plastic and tires  on our 2013 Rav4.Everything else on the market seems to disappear after a few weeks(parking in the garage ) we will see.I bought the 128 oz. container(pour into a smaller spray bottle) and saved quite a bit over the smaller cotainer.Thats a lot of stuff,but I just did 2 other  vehicles and used 8 oz including tires rubber floor mats and  plastic pieces around the engine.
I purchased this product based off of other recommendations from boat and car enthusiast.  I was looking for something better than Armor All, or the other standard car products out there.  My initial use was for the black plastic trim on my F-150 pickup which had faded to a greyish color versus the dark grey almost black factory color.  It's awesome.  It's easy to put on, doesn't streak and lasts about 4-6 weeks.I spray the 303 on a rag and then apply to the areas I want protected, I then wipe the area dry.  I do this in small sections to make sure I get a nice even application.Since using this on the truck and being very satisfied I started using it on everything that takes any kind of sun abuse.  Basically anything plastic or vinyl that spends time in the sun, like the roof of our pop-up camper, our ATV's (3 of them), the dirt bike, the riding mower, the push mower, and the vinyl seats on everything from the mower to the boat.  It really works well protecting items exposed to the sun.I have a friend that has used this product on his boat seats for the past 8 years and they look as good as the day he bought the boat, and they feel new.  He swears by it and I can see why.  I've seen dashes and vinyl that's had Armor All on it and they look like crap after a few years, 303 does the job that other products simply fail to do...even though they claim to work.This product is worth every penny.  I know it's a little spendy, but it really is worth it.  If you're like me and try to buy quality items that you plan on keeping for 7-10 years, this is the product you need to keep them looking new.  I only wish I had known about this product sooner.
why don't they sell this at local auto stores its way better than armor all... because its not for all surfaces just the stuff the sun beats on
im huge into preserving my cars and hate armor all. After lots of research i found about this. After a year of use it preserves black vinyl, tires, plastics great. I will never switch to another product
I ordered this on a recommendation from a car club member. I had just bought my Miata and it was in dire need of a detailing. I used the 303 on all the interior plastics and the vinyl roof. Everything looked great when I was done. Unlike Armorall, it didn't leave a greasy coating. Everything just looked clean and fresh!
This product was recommended to me by a custom truck business and so far I am very happy with it.  Goes on easy and does not have the oily feel after application, which means not as much dust collecting on it.
This product works excellent. I have tried others and done all the research on protectants and this appaers to be the best out there. It is expensive, but I think it's worth it for my vehicles. Highly recommended.
no wonder this product has such great reviews.  just used it on my car tires and they certainly looked awesome.
I have tried a number of other plastic/vinyl or rubber protectants and this by far the best and longest lasting. doesn't leave a greasy feel and really protects and rejuvenates rubber and plastic parts. I use it on my door and window seals on my cars and on the vinyl dash as well as the tires.
I own a 2013 BMW Mini Cooper and I haven't taken it in for its first service appointment yet, but I sat down with the head mechanic and asked about keeping the engine clean with my regular routine of spraying Simple Green in the entire engine, scrubbing areas with various foam and bristle brushes, then using a nearby water hose with a light trickling of water to clean the engine off, then applying a spraying of 303 Aerospace over the whole bay and let dry for a few hours.  The mechanic said it would be much appreciated  during servicing, as a clean engine is easier to diagnose and work on, and the dressing helps keep the rubber hoses in the engine from deteriorating, which are usually the things to fail first and need replacing.I use 303 Aerospace solely as an engine dressing, and while the instructions say to spray on and wipe off after a few minutes, when it comes to engines, clean the engine, and while wet, soak the entire bay with 303 Aerospace.  If possible, leave the hood open and let it air dry for a few hours.  Close the hood after that and engine cleaning is done!I have Klasse VLR protectant for my usual treatment of exterior plastic/vinyl areas but when doing the engine, I often go over the car exterior with 303.  Can't hurt.Highly recommend this for engine dressing.Keep in mind, this will not 'restore' plastic/vinyl to look like new.  It'll keep the materials looking the way they do.  So if you have a brand new car, start using this and it'll keep the car looking new.  If you have faded or worn out areas, it'll keep those areas from getting worse, but won't make it look better.  This works as a protectant, but doesn't restore.For restoration, you'll need to research other products.I keep this in my auto detailing kit always.
I just bought my fourth gallon, yes, gallon of 303. And I've received tremendous value from the first three over a lot of years.I use 303 on just about everything in my car that is smooth and not paint (Zaino for the paint.) The door seals are six years old and look perfect. The plastic headlamp lenses are perfect. Tires. Wheels. Trim. Instrument cluster.My teak outdoor furniture looks great. (Get some big Scotch-Brite pads and 409. Spray the teak liberally with 409, go over with the Scotch-Brite, rinse with a hose, let dry, then treat with 303 Protectant -- you'll be stunned how well it works. Every month or so, a quick spray of 303, then wipe it dry, and you're done.)I keep 303 around because pretty much anything that has a hard surface (so that you can wipe it dry ... that's key) looks better and lasts longer. I have a carbon fiber frame on my bicycle. 303 keeps it looking perfect.Every time I work on something, or clean it up, I 303 (for me, it is a verb) it. Rubber soles on shoes. A vacuum cleaner. You name it.Truly, out of everything I get on Amazon, it is one of the only things I would clearly give six stars to if I could. It keeps my stuff looking good. It restores stuff that is looking worn. I can't recommend it more highly.
I use this on a million different things around the house, the motorhome, the vehicles, you name it! It really does leave a protecting layer on any surface, except maybe glass. I use it on the motorhome for conditioning the slide seals, air conditioner shrouds, spraying the front before a trip makes removing bugs a breeze, and many more things. On my cars I use it to keep running boards, rubber door seals and more black and supple. I even use it on the lawnmower! It is expensive but when you consider that it keeps me from having to spend money replacing seals and rubber parts, it is so worth it!
Bought this spray and the wipes together. Instructions on the bottle tell you to spray on and wipe dry. Seems like a waste but we'll see if it works in the long haul or if it's just an advertising gimmick.
I've been using this since 2008 and yes, it really does do what it says on the bottle.  It is more expensive but a little goes a long way and it is hands down better than Armor-All or any other so-called "protectant."  I use this on my auto dashes, car seats, motorcycle seats, dashboard instruments, and most other black plastic parts on my car/bike.  Not only does it give black plastics a deep, dark color, it stays that way for quite some time.  If you periodically treat your stuff with 303 it WILL stay looking like new even in the most brutal conditions.  It's neither greasy nor shiny so applying it to your car's dashboard will not create high reflectivity on the inside of your windshield on sunny days.
I have tried many products and this one beats them all. I use it on my car for the dash, a little to make the mats look good, the engine bay, trim and on the wheels. I no longer need a product for each item. On the wheels it lasts for a couple of weeks depending on rainfall but even after, when washing the wheels it helps to make cleaning easier since the rubber looks natural after. Then just apply some for a nice low sheen look. I prefer a low sheen than a high shine on the rubbers and plastic. I use this on vinyl to protect it and on leather as well and there is no greasy residue.
I use this mostly on my motor home. Tyres, vinyl, protects just about everything. Just got to watch Avatar in 3d-Blu-ray on my new TV.
Purchased this product after a friend told me about it. Was looking for something to protect the black plastic items on my autos that also had UV protection and would no run after a rain. So far it works great. Does a good job darkening the black plastic items and making them extremely water proof plus even after rains you don't see any streaking on the paint from the product which I have seen on everything I have used to date. Of course it will take time to tell if the UV aspect of the product works as advertised but so far so good.
This product works wonders for my jeep wrangler plastics and love the fact it doesnt have ingredients that will later make the plastics brittle and fade.
I have a Chevy Avalanche with lots of black (or at least it was black) body trim. I got lazy and let the Southern California sun bake it wayyyy too long. I did a lot of web searches and found that this "303"  is very very highly rated, and loved by boat owners. Boats endure some of the most harsh environments imaginable, so I decided to give it a try.It has the consistency of ''Armor ***" but is way different in its ingredients and performance. It contains UV protectors (sun-screen) plus penetrating polymers to actually restore some of the plastics structure. This stuff is much more color restorative than any others I have tried, and it brought the dark black back to my trim!Here is what else I found out during my searches: ....A problem with the neoprene material used in the Typhoon Lagoon inflatable boats at Walt Disney World was solved by treating them with 303 Aerospace Protectant.... Fleetwood, Winnebago, Thor, and other leaders in the motorhome and travel trailer industry specify 303 Aerospace Protectant, and will actually advise customers against other brands ... Design Automotive Group, the leader in tonneau covers, only recommends 303 Aerospace Protectant for their vinyl treatment ... AMCO, the largest manufacturer of convertible tops, has recommended 303 Aerospace Protectant for over 20 years ... and the accolades go on and on...Simply amazing!Very highly recommended!
My RV dealership told me about this product. Their contention was that this product doesn't contain the harmful solvents found in Armor All. I've used Armor All for a long time, but I like the way this goes on. Seems to revive the vinyl better, and gives it a better finish. I was told that it is an excellent product for protecting decals, but I've yet to try it for that use. Overall, I'm pleased.
I put this on myself (55 yr old woman) easy to install, I just used the tape it came with and I do a lot of hwy driving and they stay on great. Not really doing its job like I thought it would but it looks good.
DOES THE JOB. EASY TO INSTALL I DID USE MY OWN SELF TAP SCREWS. LOOKS GOOD SEAMS TO GRAB MORE WIND AND MAKE HOOD SHAKE A LITTLE MORE ON  WRANGLER...
I am quite happy with my purchase of this item.  I wanted something to add protection to the front of my Jeep and this was the best item and price I could find.  I shopped several sites and found that this was the cheapest and that gpt me to order immediately.  Just make sure you get it lined up just right!d
The first evening trip out to the lake in our Wrangler probably eradicated 1/4 of the central Arizona bug population, and convinced me of the need for a deflector. I almost got a cheaper one from another site, but the net cost with shipping was pretty close to this pricier one.First off the pros:+  It works. Fewer bugs hit the windshield.+  It's a quality piece. No complaints there, although I used my own self drilling screws.+  It's easy to install.Now the rest.-  I know it works, because the disrupted airflow make the hood shake at speeds above 60, or in a headwind.You'll probably want to include these in your order.Daystar KJ09145BK Hood Latch - 2 Piece
Looks good. Like it. Mounting the shield for one short guy is a challenge. Called my wife to hold one side for me to properly center it solved the problem. It deflects bugs only about 50% but at least it is better then not having it at all.
Did not see anything wrong or damaged on the unit when it delivered so I mounted the part that is when things became apparent that it might be an unanticipated problem.  The first thing I noticed after mounting it and closing the hood was that the design of the unit was going to exaggerate a problem with the hood on the highway or heavy headwinds.  The jeep hood already has a slight issue with catching wind and bouncing up and down, but, the design of this unit has the Deflector jutting straight out before curving upward.  This creates an even larger point to catch wind and creating drag forcing the hood to jump even worse and at lower speeds so you tend to be watching the hood movement even more than normal.  Second issue I had with the part was the quality of the forming, at least with my part.  Once inside the jeep I noticed that the right side looked lower so I checked the mounting and everything was exactly the same as the left side.  Checking closer it was apparent that the right side was slightly misformed, it had more bend than the right so that the top of the deflector was lower(closer) to the hood than the left.  Yes, it is quite noticeable from inside the vehicle but not a huge issue.  Overall I am considering just removing it and not have it on the Wrangler
I use these every time I wash one of my cars with enisett or sonax wheel cleaner and the wheels look brand new every time. These are great for cleaning inside the wheel for that professional detailing look. Now it stands out when I look at a just washed car and see all that brake dust inside the wheel because someone only washed the outside of the wheel. These brushes will also help you keep the inside of your wheels from pitting by helping remove the brake dust
Also works good for hard to reach places by the brake caliper too. I use these on all my vehicles with a variety of finishes and with a proper cleaner the grime just scrubs right off.
Bought these for my motorcycle wheels and they work great! I used them for my Ducati's front brakes becasue they are a pain to clean with regular hand and sponge!
Does a great job on my Subaru WRX wheels, makes it easy to get every spoke and deep in the wheel.
Seems to smear dirt rather than pick it up.  Wanted to use is as a &#34;dry&#34; wipe to remove dirt, like a cloth, but it doesn't seem to work well that way.  Maybe better used wet, but I did not try that.  Does have a long handle to get into spots.  I just feel it could have been better.
Have a new vette and wanted something to clean between the spokes.  Does it very well and the long handel allows me to clean the inside of the wide wheels.
Griot's Garage makes quality products and I have occasionally purchased items from their catalog.  When I came across this micro fiber wheel wand, I saw an opportunity to use the right tool for the job.  It works as I expected as I am fanatically about how clean my 20&#34; wheels look like especially after a car wash.
Large wand is great allowing you to get in there and clean but also very soft not to scratch. Feels durable and after 50 washes still performs as new.
Well worth the price! I use these on every car I do and the are the best priced wheel brushes you can find.
Bought it to clean my wheels and I must say that I'm impressed. The quality of the brushes is really fine. The material is not hard enough to hurt the wheels not soft enough not to clean them! It's just... perfect!The small brush is around 10&#34; and the big 20&#34;. Thickness is perfect to get inside everywhere you want to clean and good for working even on sensitive areas, it will do no damage at all to them!
I wasn't sure if this would work because of the low price. They worked very well and easy to clean afterwards.At this price give it a try.
These are a lot smaller than you think, but they end up working great. The tiny one fits into the real small spaces by your brake calipers and cleans well. They seem very durable so far, more so than typical wheel brushes.
This is a great wheel cleaner. You wont scratch your wheels with if because the whole handle is plastic and there is no exposed metal. The small wand  depending on how close your caliper is to your wheel, may or may not fit between the wheel and caliper. It works on my rear wheels but not on the fronts.
This was my second set of lights, so I had no trouble installing them in my Jeep Liberty; basic plug and play capabilities can be installed in less than an hour. 6000K hue makes my driving distance illuminate with luxury and brilliance. Since I go off-roading, its great to have high beams as well, tough the left halogen bulb has seem to have burned out; might be contacting Kensun about this, but overall, these lights rock!!!
Ok so I ordered this on Friday and got it on Monday as I have Prime. This was expected and I'm glad I got it so fast. But I wasn't to sure about the packaging. The bubble packaging had all popped and there was really nothing in the box to keep the Kensun kit from bouncing around inside.Well I opened the package and was inspecting everything when oh and behold a wire falls out of the hid bulb. Literally fell right off! So I've called the customer service because I've heard good things about them and their service. They were kind enough to listen to the problem and said they would send out a replacement bulb which would get here by the end of the week. So as far as this product goes so far I'm giving it 3 stars until I get the replacement bulb. I'll be testing out the good one today and see how it turns out. Aside from that I do admit the customer service was good and the rest of the product looks in good condition...so far.Update:  3 weeks later.So I've loved the new look of my fog lights. These are amazing at night and the color is just right. I have to say that they were a little interesting to plug in and other than the issue I wrote about above I haven't had more. Kensun has been kind enough to help me replace the defects on the product and seem actually interested in the quality of their product to me. So far I'm happy with the product now and the customer service they offer. Therefore I've upgraded my stars to 4 for these guys. I most likely purchase from here again.
this is a great buy for what you get,the bulbs and ballasts,and they have lasted a good while to,for what you get they are a great buy
I've installed HIDs three times total in my car, and out of all of the bulbs, these were the most difficult.Before I begin on that, let me start off with the brightness.I ordered the 5000k (&#34;Diamond White&#34;), for maximum brightness, for my 2012 Impreza. Originally had Xentec HIDs, which one ended up failing.The light output of this bulb is far superior to that of the Xentec, likely 3 times as bright. Though I don't have a projector housing, and the light isn't exactly concentrated as if I did have the correct housing, they look fantastic.As far as installing them, my headlight ended up coming damaged. The plastic clip which turns to lock into the headlight housing was somehow chipped (as if the package was opened before). I had to almost force-turn it into the housing for it to stay, but it's secure at the moment. The package did in fact look to be opened and carelessly re-closed, as if they were returned, but at the moment i'm not worried.Overall, for the money (which I didn't really know whether it would have been worth it before purchasing), these headlights are ten times as good as the Xentec pair I had bought twice before, and the stock halogen lights my Impreza had when bought.
Unlike most people who purchase these types of kits, I was not as concerned about the &#34;look&#34; of HID headlights on my 2011 RAM.  I was more interested in the brighter, more visible light and the low current draw associated with HID technology.  I ordered this kit hoping it would be of good components and well contructed, and it appears to be just that.  I've tested the current draw after the ballasts charge and the lights are stabilized and they are drawwing a steady 16.3 watts, which is primarily what I was after.  The bulbs throw a very bright, well-defined pattern that is cutoff on top by my stock reflector housings.  I have them aimed just a little lower than the stock setting as to not blind oncoming traffic and I have not been flashed once.  I did very quickly order 5000K bulbs to replace the 4300K bulbs that I originally ordered with the kit because I wanted slightly more white spectrum light, rather than the yellowish light that the originals threw.
I was headed over the mountains and wanted to try these out because visibility around here isn't that great. Me and a co worker put them in my Silverado at break time. I turn them on after install and they didn't come on so from reading the reviews I knew that I had to turn the main power connection from the original 9006 bulb around. then they worked like a charm, I drove all night and didn't have a problem. I stayed with the 6000 K because I didn't want to stand out too bad but they do have a hint of blue so the police can tell but it's not offensive they will probably leave me alone. My only complaint is I wish there was a clasp for the main power to the ballast on the opposite side since had to flip it around. I also had one of the clasps on the ballast that connects to the headlight wire that wasn't there. I had already got a email from the company to see if there's anything I needed and I expect to hear back from them after my reply tomorrow since they are closed right now. I will tell you this though, your headlights will seem really yellow in comparison
These fit in nice and easy on my 2006 subaru impreza. If you are having difficulty trying to find the HID/LED you are looking for; there are numerous websites with diagrams on bulb to LED/HID size conversion.
Installed in under one hour, on a Dodge Ram pick-up good quality easy plug and play. The light color 6,000 K is perfect. Long term testing will needed to see about lamp life.
item working good so far one light doesn't come on once in a while I just turn my truck off and restart it or could just need to warm up first hasn't happened in a few days other than that it would have gotten 5 stars. I can see very well with this system they are brighter than my high beams very nice and work well for the money!!!!!!  oh one thing I noticed is that the lights aren't the color of blue they advertise in the photo nothing near it there light blue like sky blue not dark blue but im happy with them.update: I cleared the check engine codes and so far the lights are working as they should very happy with them for the price.
It's the best brand you can get for the best quality that will last longer than those other brands on the market!
Since, there are a lot HID products in the market.Its hardly to compare who is the most reliable product and seller. I observed from varies review stated that different products, either the light won't stable to work or seller had poor service, even though they skip away from their business. I bought this Kensun HID-H4 is base on the review and this is one had higher review score. so, I make up my mind to try one of it. It set up fast and simple(only 20 minutes), the light given out is straight sharp turn on and the light is bright enough to lights up all around.the Kelvin is quite close as its described. The Seller has instant response to any question you may have. In my mind, for such $80.00 or whatever, that is good enough. Compare to use high performance Xenon bulb, you will find it is worth to try one of this. Even it last for 2 years.
I have had these installed now for a few weeks. I absolutely love them! Took around 30 minutes to install, hardest part was getting my factory headlight bulbs out( 2012 Ford Escape). Wiring harness that came with the HID kit was easy to install, everything could only go in 1 place. Quality seems very good, ballasts are metal. The directions are in &#34;Engrish&#34;, however, I used the picture diagram. And, like I said, everything can only plug in 1 way.Worked the first time I turned on my headlights, no flickering or anything. They are INCREDIBLY BRIGHT! Make sure your headlights are adjusted properly so you don't blind oncoming traffic. I ordered the 8k color bulbs( super white with blue tinge) They are exactly as described, a little more blue than I was expecting. But, overall, I am very satisfied with the color. I had to order LED fog light bulbs to match them.Night time driving is a blast now, highway signs POP.
The kit was extremely easy to install and had everything I needed. It works great and is so much brighter than the old halogens. I got the 6000K bulbs and they are exactly what I was looking for. A little blue tint that looks cool and lets people know I have Xenons and yet not outrageously blue like the 10000K. I considered the 8000K but I think I made the right choice.I'd recommend doing this mod. Its easy and definitely worth it.I would also recommend aiming your headlights very carefully after installation. Its better to aim them a little further down than stock just because they are significantly brighter. Please don't blind people. Xenons really weren't meant to be in reflector housings to begin with.
Installed in the fog lights in a 2008 Jeep JKU. You will need an HID relay harness for this vehicle but I knew this previously and bought one before the purchase. Kit is great and functions flawlessly. Would recommend
Love the lights and ballasts, these are still working today and are bright as heck. Only gripe is the mount for the ballast is cheap as heck... Probably better off with velcro or zip ties... Overall a great addition to your ride... Simple plug and play installation...
I apologize for the delayed review.  I actually bought this kit for my dad who resides in Malaysia.  I recently made a trip back, so I thought it was a good idea to get him the HID kit so he can see better at night.  This kit was going into his Mercedes 200.  Okay, on to the review...The presentation of the box is very nice, but it is made of cheap material.  However, the product itself is packed nicely in the box, and the construction of the box is made well enough to protect the Bulb, ballast and wiring.  To save on luggage space, I discarded the box.  I bubble wrapped the parts and sandwiched them between my clothing.  They survived the journey half way around the world.  The instructions leaflet was actually very helpful...especially the graphic depictions.  The installation is straight-forward.  We managed to get the new kit working in under 30 minutes.  Tidying up the cables were a whole different story! :)The light are much much brighter than the OEM H4 bulbs.  HOWEVER, for some reason, one of the 6K bulb was a &#34;tad&#34; bit more yellowish than the other.  My dad did not really notice it.  He was more excited to see how much brighter his lights were.  The other complaint was the high beam.  I think the bulb for the high beam is not sufficient with this setup, but since he drives in town mostly, that's not a big issue.Overall, this Kensun kit looks like a quality product.  The cables are well constructed, and the ballast are well built.  They don't look like the cheap e-bay versions, and this HID does not flicker.  However, for those of you who need Hi-beam with your H4, you might want to look at their bi-xenon conversion kit...
Good bulbs, everything worked on arrival hooked up to battery, however when I hooked up to the factory wiring harness, they didn't work.  Make sure you research and see if you need a canceller or separate relay before purchase.  Just do your homework, I tried to put these in my fog lights and the bulbs were too long.  Again, lights are good, perfect color match to factory bulbs.
A Great kit. Exactly as described. The instructions were easy to follow and installation was also a breeze. Took only a few minutes.
Got these for my wife's Jeep. Easy install if you are just slightly mechanically inclined and can run automotive wiring. Light output is leaps and bounds above stock. Very happy with purchase. Kit includes everything you need to install. My application didn't need the warning cancellors. The only issue is when the high beams are on. The passenger side light or ballast makes a high pitched whine. No noticable effect to light output though. You won't be disappointed.
This hid kit was simple to install. Put it on a 05 chevy 3500 and wow it is bright. Parked a similar chevy with stock lights next to it one night and did the test. The hid lights were brighter then the stock high beams and the color is way cleaner than the stocks. I've had this hid kit on for almost 2 years now with zero problems. I only did the low beams so I can't comment on the high beams
Bought two of these to replace my fog lights and primary lights. One out of 4 ballasts burned up within a month, but all 4 bulbs still going strong. Was able to replace the bad ballast with an off-brand one for under $12. I got the 5K (crystal white) for my headlights, and 3k (yellow) for my fog lights. They are super bright, so much so that even with only low beams, people flash their high beams at me. Great safety add-on for any vehicle, and they look amazing.
SUPER bright.  I put these in my FJ Cruiser map lights and they are almost too bright!  I might have to tint my lenses a little bit.  Looks like a football stadium in my FJ now  LOL!
Very bright in my car but they are a little loose of a fit. the stock ones didnt come to a point like these ones do.
So far they are working good ..  I mean there is no much tech about LED replacements but I have about 6 months or so on those and still like the first day ..
This bulb is not 31mm, it's more like 33mm.  This is very important to know.  It's not that bright though.  Buy AGT, Advanced German Techology.  This is more like a cheap chinese knock off
This bulb isn't as bright as other sets that have fewer LED's, also the color is skewed to the blue side. I bought them for my dome, but went with a different one. These are now in my map lights, and work fine.
This fitted perfectly on my 2008 Lancer. I used it for Dome light and Trunk light. It's very bright and looks awesome.
The product reached very fast and the fitment was easy as I used in dome light of my Toyota Camry 2000. The white light looks good and bright than the 10 years old yellow bulb. I bought them spare to give to my friends and everyone liked them.
Have them working in the tailgate of my '03 Ford Focus SE wagon.  These are looking just great but for the length having been a bit short (fortunately was able to 'stretch' the spring terminals).
This must be a good product, the ex kept it during the divorce. I have yet to need another yet but I would buy it again.
This is a great tool for the money. Works as described and easy to use. Highly recommend this to anyone that works on their own cars.
Works as advertised. I would warn you to use with caution because you can accidently poke a hole into the hose while using this if you pull to far up an angle while using the tool. Other than that, works great.
first the hook seems like it will get into places I can't use my current ones for.  However I am surprised that otc used such a cheap light hollow plastic handle on this.  I was definitely expecting better quality on the handle, I'm afraid its gonna break on me.  but that hook will sure work great when i need it.
Does the job....helps remove stubborn rad. hoses.  Makes the job that much easier.  A must have for the do it yourselfer
I never thought I needed one of these until I had to replace the power steering cooler on chevy Silverado. The clamps at the pump end are very inaccessible from the top. Then its very difficult to pull a hardened hose off the fitting because there is too little room to get a good grip on the hose.Do yourself a favor-- get a set of cable pliers with these for the clamps, and you will be prepared for just about anything.
The tool fits in my hand nicely and the angle makes it easy to remove a hose. The metal seems to be of good quality,just be careful if you need to reuse the hose again not to poke it because the tool is very sharp at the tip.
This hook is made really well.  The design and the quality that has gone into it is really nice.  I have only used it a few times so I don't have a lot to go on but I think it will be with me for a long time.If comes to a point where you have to use this hook to remove the hose it probably means that hose is getting replaced, so it can and it will tear the hose which is a good thing.I like that the whole tool is just the right size to fit into most places.
I purchased this to fill up my tool chest.  I haven't used it yet but I plan on using it to replace some hoses on my boat and truck this year.
This tool works fantastic on those old baked on hoses. It has a very solid construction and the tip is very sharp but still strong enough to keep its shape. My only gripe is the handle is quite a bit smaller than I expected. I can only get three fingers around it for grip which is enough to get the job done but it would be much better if it was a little longer. Still a great tool for the price...
This tool is excellent at performing the job for which it was designed: removing hose connection. I would only caution that you take care to observe the extremely SHARP point. However, the &#34;sharp point&#34; is one of the major reasons it works so well.
Simple high quality construction and design.  A real must have for changing fuel filters or other hoses on motors.Give you a grip and an agle to apply force where it is needed for a mess free quick repair FIY guy.
This is a tool of excellent quality, made in Taiwan.  The tool is very useful for assisting in the removal of hoses - esp. radiator hoses - just be mindful of the very, very sharp point (comes with a protective cover).
this is a very good tool it get hoses off easy it is made very well if you do not have one you need one
OTC 4521 Hose Removal ToolMy buddies look at this and have no clue what it's for...LOLHave no worries about this tool growing legs. :0)WORKS EXCELLENT, Good qualityHighly recommendRagenRat
It does what the name implies, at a great price. It has a good bend to access hard to reach hoses. Don't need to use channel locks any more to free stuck hoses. Buy it, you won't be disappointed.
steel hook for cheap for those stuck on hoses,,  worked great for me. not much more can be said, every tool box should have one
AMAZING tool, the handle is a hard plastic and it doesn't matter that is plastic, cause is strong.It was so easy to remove a vacuum hose with this tool that I really want to give 10 stars.
This tool has the right bend to remove radiator hoses, gas fill pipe hoses and others. Allows you to break the bond and then pulls the hose off. Strong enough not to bend. With reasonable care the hose can be reused. Some radiator hoses are in tight places and with this tool you don't risk damaging the radiator.
Not much to say but this is a great tool for a low price.  The hook does bend around 180 degrees so just be aware of that. Sometimes you may need less of an angle depending on the hose you are working with.  Be careful not to poke through the hose (use a little common sense) and you will be fine.  You can't beat the price and its way better than jamming a screwdriver or something in there when wrestling with those troublesome hoses.
I always have trouble getting hoses unstuck so I can remove them. This gets in there and brakes the &#34;stuckness&#34;, if your not careful your rip/puncture a hose. I just get the tip in and the try to do a 360 and the pull the hose off, and sometime apply pressure woth the tool to help!
Shape of this particular hose remover is unique, and I have not accidentally poked through any hoses. Works very well.
It saves the AN fittings from having to cut old hoses of aircraft engines. Still have to replace the hose but don't have to pull the fittings hunt parts etc. This bugger hook snatches those old hoses right off.
I gave a five star rating because of good value for an exceptional quailty tool.This hose removal tool works great for me and costs much less then Sanp-On.I highly recommend this tool.
Easier to roll around the hose and not break the connector or nipple.
No Instructions quality OK, just too much work to put together hard to figure out the fit still have not used it
Guys, I just got this trunk 20 minutes ago and opened the box..... To my amazement the package was packaged really well, the necessary components were well bagged... (I have a 07 Harley Road King) I am sure I will be getting a Quick attachment ($105.00 on Amazon) for this allowing me to take the trunk (The trunk seems to be well made, with a pretty nice lock on it) on and off really easy... The Trunk is a glossy Black, and paint ready as the backrest and the luggage rack is unattached. ,,, And my bike is red... I am deciding weather to paint the trunk red or leave it as is... Of course it will match the bike saddle really well,, and the included backrest looks great... It comes with a included rack,,, It has to be attached,,,, but it seems to be pretty good quality (The ones I looked at on Amazon and at the Harley shop cost over twice what I paid for the whole Trunk set up.... I gotta say I love it.... I can buy a spray paint can from Walmart for $5.00 and paint it red,,, am thinking of that....... I will post a update soon as I put the Trunk on my bike... I am very pleasantly surprised........Update: 9/22/13,,,,,,,,, Well I painted them a Harley Red hopping to match my Road King... Well,,, not so good, but it looks great. I got the paint at Walmart for $3.49 (Solvent type Rustoloum), got some 600 grit sand paper, to rough it up,,,, next thing I you know I have a red tour pack that looks presentable. Update: 10/25 I just bought the docking unit for my 07 Harley for $105.00 and will be installing it when the unit arrives. The trunk is exactly what I was looking for and about $500.00 cheaper than the Harley unit. Just had to paint it t....he bikes color,,,,,,, could have left it black though
great box that i use every day. the mounting hardware was a bitch tho. i pretty much had to built a bracket from scratch. for my honda shadow spirit 2007.
Universal is just that...supplied brackets did not fit my 2008 Suzuki Boulevard C50T. Just removed Backrest and drilled holes directly to the rack and mounted that way. Wife likes it better than the OEM backrest. Remember how low the price is people!...Works well for us.
It's worth the money even though it is sent with some hardware that in no way fits my bike...I had it reupholstered and used different hardware to attach it...why...because I didn't pay much for it and it looks great and gives me what I wanted ...getting away from saddle bags...
This fits great...The trunk with mounting bracket with a little modifications bolted to my trike. The backrest and some industrial strength double sided 2&#34; tape also fit the ticket, forget the bolts to the back rest.
Shipping was fast, I mean I got this in days.  It was packaged well, I opened it to see if there was any damage and there wasn't. The paper they used was the Saturday nights paper dated 2011 if I knew china lol.  Anyways its good value but no instructions. But the seller quickly emailed me the instructions.This product is a good value. This is going to go on my HD Road King. But there is a snag and I should have really looked at the discreption when I ordered it. I need to get the 2 up rack from HD for 260.00 dollars. But I just ordered it from amazon and got the back hardware also for 155.00 vice 250.00 from the Harley dealer. Also the hardware that came with this trunk is not the best, I would recommend going to Home Depot, or Ace and get Stainless Steel ones before you install it, just a recommendation.If you get this remember to look at it and get all the parts needed. Unless you are an engineer then you could make this work. Remember this is a 80.00 dollar item and its good for the value and will save you 600.00 or more if you go thru the dealer. I would recommend this.Update, 06-05-13, still using it, and its great. Starting to show wear but that's easily fixed with some paint and sandpaper. However the vinyl back cushion is starting to rip. Don't know how long it will last. Had to replace the screws they keep coming out.
The key word here is &#34;universal&#34; - another way of saying it probably not going to fit anything well unless you happen to be both inventive and handy. I was surprised at the comparatively heavy-gauge ABS plastic; while it's by no means the sturdiest trunk you can buy, for $60 including shipping it's a bargain. The rack wasn't anything I intended to use, though it seems sturdy enough; I'm cutting-to-fit a steel plate to place under the top so that I can mount a 38&#34; dual-band amateur radio antenna, the steel should both reinforce the top and make the antenna work better, too. The radio box is being mounted inside on another steel plate fitted to the floor of the box, it's quick release so I can take it inside with me when I stop for the night. About the only other thing I intend to store in it is my Aerostitch rainsuit, so there should be more than adequate room for circulating air to cool the radio transmitter. The backrest went directly into the trash - my bike already has a backrest, and the holes seal quite readily with button-head screws, rubber washers both sides and a steel washer on the inside. I have to make a trip to Home Depot to get some hardware, but it's already mounted on the bike (I reused some hardware from the old trunk to do that) and I expect it to be around for quite some time to come. I wish I could rate it another half-star, but that's not an option. For $60, there's nothing I know of that suits my needs so well...
I've got two of these. One for my MG when storing it for the winter and one for my Kubota Tractor in the barn. On those -10 mornings when I needed to blow some snow, the tractor would sometimes be hard to start. Not any more. I leave it plugged in all winter and the battery is always charged.As for the MGB, after a winter with no driving, pull the charger off, change the oil and she fires up. No need to charge the battery and I know that with a charge the batter will last MUCH longer. I installed the quick plug on my MG and on the tractor and could not be happier. After one year of service, both units are working GREAT!
Never went into maintain mode after two days.  Always charging and that's when I tested with a VTVM.  The battery, fully charged from use of the car, started at 13.5 VDC.  Took the charger off when the voltage, at the battery, reached 14.75 VDC and was still rising.  Looks nice but this one appears to be malfuncting.  Returning to Amazon.
It's small and I am very pleased with it.  It plugs right into the lighter and is very easy to set up.  I would recommend this product.  Good deal for the price.
I was looking for a basic battery charger, but I didn't want a float charger.  I had learned that a float charger will not re-charge a battery that is low, it will only keep a charged battery topped off.  I didn't need a fast charger.  This fits the bill.  Compact design that is easy to store when not in use.  Convenient adapters so I can charge at the battery or at the cigarette lighter.  Only a 6V/12V switch to set to 12V for car batteries.  Plug it in and go, no 'settings' to mess with.  And of course it charge the battery properly.  For the price I don't think you can beat it, as long as you don't need a fast charger.
In Germany (where I come from) Black&Decker; is a well known name for good and long lasting products.So I bought this battery charger/maintainer to always have a full battery when I randomly go out for a ride.This charger is simple and awesome. All connectors are still included so that you can directly start using it.It works for 6V as well as for 12V. It is simple to use and also simple to understand with those two LEDs.
got it for a old restored car we have and the darn light never goes out, battery is brand new and its unhooked from car.. checked with volt meter and its a little above what the battery is with out it on, so i know its a trickle charger so must be ok right? B and D's stuff has gotten pretty cheap these last few years i have noticed.
Not bad, but the indicator light shows a valid connection to the battery if either end is connected (either power supply or battery clips).  My Schumacher is similar but the indicator lamps display correctly so a quick glance tells you exactly what the status is.
Hi all. This is a Decent charger/Maintainer. I used it to charge a new battery for my fathers bike. Seems to work fine. My only gripe is the harness that gets attached to the battery is a little on the short side. I need to remove the rear cover to plug in the charger/maintainer. I can lengthen the leads. At least now I have a plug to wire up accessories.
Failed just after the time limit for returning items to Amazon.The switch to select 6 or 12V is weak and easily moved by accident.The Schumacher SEM-1562A-CA (also sold by Amazon) is the same price, automatically senses whether it's charging a 6 or 12V battery (no switch) and has indicators that are easier to read and give more information.  It also claims to have a desulfation mode.  I purchased the Schumacher at about the same time and it has been working without fault.I would not purcahse this product again.  Depending on cost and resistance encountered, the thing may get returned or trashed.Update 3/25 - Two months after calling on the phone, getting an authorization and sending in the dead unit for a warranty replacement, nothing has arrived. Not only is the product defective, but it seems the company is as well.  I will avoid their brand and their holding company and all of its brands as much as possible.
Being a wrench-head for over 45 years, I keep a few cars around to use at the appropriate seasons. I try and keep them charged up to avoid the costly $100 batteries. I have tried many makes and even other Black and Decker models. This model has been the best and lasts as long as you car does if you use it right. My brand new truck today sits with a built-in little B&D; BM3B colorful charger to avoid drainage. When you connect these chargers, do not expect them to charge your battery from Zero volts. Best performance is when a battery has medium charge in it so the 1-2 Amp current can be fed slowly. You will see the orange light for a day or two then here comes the green light which is great news.When you store an older car (60's-70's) for a long time, disconnect the battery (-ve and +ve_) both and hook up to charger, in newer cars (80's plus) you will lose the settings and the memory so it is best to connect the charger +ve lead to the battery and the -ve lead to a good ground like the alternator frame.This is a wonderful device and I have 3 of them running on my project cars and will get one for the yard tractor soon.
The reviews for this product were mixed.  I bought it more on the "Black & Decker" name than the review.  My classic car had not been driven for a long time and the battery was dead.  The BM3B did exactly what is suppose to do.  The dead battery charged in a couple of days because the battery was almost completely gone.  After the blinking LED stopped the car was ready to go.  The old 1964 Buick Wildcat started up after two years.I like the accessory (cigarette)plug which I used.  It come with clamps and permanent wire rings to attach to the battery.  I will use the latter for my John Deere when it is put away for winter.If you want a quick charge, I would recommend you shop around.  This works for me.  It does what all trickle chargers are suppose to do.  It is also extremely safe from what I have experienced.
Love the cigarette lighter attachment. Seems well built and works well. Price is much lower than other battery maintainers. So far so good
Perfect for my motorcycle, and whatever other batteries might need charging. It comes with multiple connectors that make much more useful than other battery charger/maintainers that only have one type of connection. The ring terminals easily connect to the battery of my bike and I placed the connector in the perfect place to connect the charger without removing the seat or exposing the battery or having to remove the terminals after winter storage. I like having all the other connectors handy for when I'll need to charge another type of battery. It's nice and small too. I recommend.
I too got this for around $20 at Home Depot when I acquired a third motorcycle. I have a Battery Tender Plus, Battery Tender Jr, and this. I honestly can't tell the difference between any, except that I would be hesitant to use this B&D; on Gel batteries.I have never used it to charge a dead battery, only to maintain them during the winter or when parked.I've used it on my wife's car during this most recent brutal winter, to keep ensure the car would still start after temps dropping to -10F.I've had this for 2-3 years now and it still works.I would technically give this 4 stars, compared to a Battery Tender being 5. But it's 20 bucks and serves it's intended purpose.If you're just looking for something to kee car, motorcycle, RV, boat battery charged while sitting for a while I don't see why this wouldn't fit the bill. I would recommend, especially over push starting a motorcycle.
Had bad experienced with NOCO always stuck on Standby, try out B&D; and received 2 dead ones when plugged in power, no LED lit.  Returned to Amazon, got 2 new ones.  Let see how their quality control this time.Update: Got 2 new ones works fine, somewhat my fault and somewhat B&D; poor design.  LED will not turn on UNLESS battery cable is connected to car battery then connect to charger with power AC plugged in wall socket to complete the loop.  If only AC power plugged into wall socket, LED is OFF which is poor design that made me think device is defective.  It should have power/ready LED but this device only have CHARGING (Green) or FAULT (Red) LED.  The first 2 charger I returned probably works fine but I'm used to plug in a device in AC wall socket, LED power/standby should turned on first.  I got no LED light so thought it malfunction.So before you claim the product is defect due to NO LED LIGHT lit when plugged into wall AC, make sure connect the other end to your battery terminal to make complete loop in order for GREEN LED to flash (charging.) This is not a good friendly design but it works and fairly priced.
This is great for keep batteries up to mark when is storage. The product is light but I would not say it feels that it can be easily broken. I believe it is how you handle your stuff. Used this on one battery so far with good results. Just follow the directions very closely to avoid potential issues.
I own several Charger / maintainers , and due to the affordable price, it made since to purchase. Since it does a fine job of maintaininga decent 6V or 12v battery ,even when it is drained of juice.
Have it on my goldwing,  so far so good, when the bike is charged it goes into maintenance mode.  done
I purchased this as a means of charging my mustangs battery. I saw Battery Tenders on Ebay, but decided to go with this model because it shipped 2 day with prime and it was a few bucks cheaper. I LOVE IT!!! I have a 1995 Ford Mustang, and its very rough on its battery. it has 660 CCA, but even with that after a week of leaving it plugged in, the battery doesn't have the charge to turn the engine over. So now what I do is unplug it, and then when necessary, I use the two clamps and charge it on a regular outlet. Prior to this purchase, i would constantly have to run back with the battery to my local Autozone to have it charged, a real pain in my you know what. But now its as easy, or hard, as finding a open plug to pop this into. Then you plug in the cords and bam, within a day or so you're battery will be good as new.I have even tested the &#34;smart charge&#34; feature, with a spare I had. I went out for 7 days and left it on the charger. When i got back, the battery was cool to the touch, and fully charged. I dropped it into the Mustang, and bam 8 cylinders of American muscle!
works fine, easy to plug in, and comes with 3 different connections. good price, cables are a little short. overall a good product. would buy again if I had the choice.
I used this once to charge a new battery. It worked fine for that.I left the battery on the charger over the winter months and the battery was dead come that spring.
I have bought three of these chargers so far, for my vehicles. I live at 7,500 feet. Avg. temp in the day. 35-42 degrees. I need cold cranking AMPS.  SW
The B&D BM3B Battery Charger is &#34;ok&#34;, but I prefer a true smart battery charger.  It works and provides good maintenance charge, but never stops charging the battery which can overcharge any battery - quickly.  Additionally, I bought this passed on good experience with other B&D products, but this charger is NOT made by B&D.  A china company justs licenses the name.  Too bad.
I purchased this for my breakaway battery on my trailer.. It works great and I got it at a fair price  !
This device was unpacked as quickly as it came and was charging my motorcycle within minutes of receiving it using the optional cables supplied.
Works well when applying car waxes.Easy to use and gets in to the paints finish for more depth.Would buy again.
I never reuse my wax pads for wax the body paint, I don't want to risk debris in there. That being said, they are great to use on waxing the car. I have cleaned off slightly used ones to continue to use on wheels and they did work well.
Used these applicators for cleaning, waxing and polishing my cars and found them to be as good as the more expensive applicators. They were very gentle on the surfaces. Easy clean up for reuse. Extremely cost effective.
Works well. These are the same as the ones you can find in walmart. Only difference is these cost less. I use these for polishing and scratch removal. As for waxing I prefer foam pads. Also once these get dirty they work great to apply tire gel.
I bought these as they were cheap, though that does not mean that they are no good, they are great, durable and spread the wax/polish/compound on your vehicle, they are washable and bigger than the foam applicators that come with some car waxes so you won't get your hand strained.
These pads are much less costly than the typical foam pad applicators from the big names like Meguiars. They are bigger and just as reusable. All this makes the Viking applicator a much better deal.....Highly recommended.
Great value for the moneyWould buy againWashes in washing machine with no problemsMust tryYouwill notregret
I bought this mainly to apply liquid glass wax to my car but I use them for a lot of different things now. I use them to apply tire shine, dry hard to reach places, wash car, clean leather seats and even apply uv protectant to my interior. These can be washed and reused several times without messing up. They are very cheap compared to other applicators. These are well made and does not have a tag that you have to take off, tags can scratch your paint. Higly reccommended.
I had doubts on this product due to the cost but boy was I wrong, this product is great. Quality of the pads are surprising soft and well made. I've seen quite a few reviews saying it not reusable, this is not true! Perhaps due to the cheap cost majority of the people think of it as a disposable solution to their microfiber pads but what you really need to do is leave it soaked over night in a bucket with hot water and detergent, rinse a few times and place it into a washing machine. Comes out brand new looking again to reuse. Having this in mind you can now go through pads so they don't get completely soaked with wax solutions.
I happen across these while looking for something else & they looked promising.The pros:+ Reasonably priced at $6.41, with free shipping, when I bought 2 of these.+ Metal free, heavy sponge with a microfiber cover.+ Sure grip handle+ Cone shaped, measures 1-1/2" on the end, 2-1/2" on the handle side.  The cleaning area is approximately 8" long from the tip to where the handle starts.The cons:- We've used these twice now & the wide end seems to be a bit too wide for our vehicles.- The microfiber covering needs to be removed to squeeze the water out of the sponge.- The microfiber cover needs to be removed to be laundered.  When I turned the cover inside out, I was surprised there's only a single row of stitching, which I'm going to say will fail shortly.  The microfiber has already frayed back to the stitching. :(If these hold up, I'll consider increasing my product rating.&#9658; Update - May 25, 2014Today I noticed the handle... specifically the rod that's inserted into the sponge, on one of the two I purchased is loose!?  The handle has a long rod that is pressed into the sponge & is secured with glued.  I pulled it off to see what going on.  The rod was glued sparingly in only 2 places.  The glue placed towards the end had failed.  I reapplied glue to see if I could secure the handle rod back in the sponge.This is VERY annoying after only 2 uses!  I've dropped my product rating from 3 to 2 out of 5 stars. :(
The Brush works well but I found it a little big toward the base and so it is difficult to really get good in the barrels of some wheels. It is soft though, and will hold chemicals or soap for cleaning.
Perfect for cleaning wheels without scratching them. You don't even need soap as long as you have a big enough bucket of water to keep dipping this into. Also very easy to clean.
This turned out to be much larger than I expected.  That being said, it is both a good thing and a bad thing.  On wheels with large openings this is great as it allows you to easily clean the barrel of the wheels with its long reach.  However if your rims are not that openin design than it really limits the access that you can gain with this wand.  Another feature of this wand is that the cover is removable.  You can turn it inside out and remove it from the wand and throw it in the wash to get it perfectly clean.  It fits well and tight and I have not had any problems with it coming off or even starting to come off while using it.  All in all I like it and find it very useful, it just wasn't quite what I had expected.  I have uploaded some pictures for reference.
This was a &#34;eh give it a shot&#34; purchase and I already regret the purchase. The tip of the wand is coming apart, and it really doesnt make the cleaning of a rim or wheel easier.
This wand is an absolute godsend for cleaning the wheels on my Scion FR-S! The stock wheels are multi-spoke and as anyone with such wheel configs knows, it's a challenge to get into the nooks and crannies for cleaning.This wand has a foam core, with a thick main body that tapers to a thinner tip and wrapped in microfiber. The foam has enough give to compress and allow access deep into recesses and also into the tight spots where the spokes meet, but is still firm enough to apply buffing pressure for a great shine.Highly recommended.
I still mostly use a Mothers wheel brush, but this is good for cleaning between the spokes of a wheel. It can squeeze into tight spaces where other wheel cleaning tools can't. The surface is very soft with a spongy interior that offers enough resistance so you can apply some pressure. The only way I could see this scratching a surface would be if you were careless and allowed it to pick up some grit. It seems well made for the price.
This is my second purchase of this tool. First one wore out from lots and lots of use. I like the product. It does well to clean the majority of my rims, although I do still need a smaller detail brush or my hands and a cloth to get into the tight areas.
Good design, to get your rims very clean. Will not damage finish and gets in all the corner spots of most rims designs . Great price well made too.
I use this withMeguiar's PlastX Clear Plastic Cleaner and Polish -10 oz..  It appears to maintain the clarity of my headlight lenses longer.  It's very easy to use.  I just spray it on, wipe it around and remove.  My car is ten years old and the dealer wanted a lot ($300+ each) for new headlight lenses.  Give me a break . .  My lenses had gotten badly yellowed and fogged.  Along with the polish, this Blue Magic Headlight Lens Sealer makes my car look like new again.Having yellow headlights - is sort of like having yellow teeth.  Why?  This is a product I highly recommend.  (Just like Crest Teeth Whitening Strips.)  Enjoy.
If you go to all the work of restoring your head lights with buffing, sanding, etc. then you will want to maintain that look.  If you don't the plastic lens will deteriorate from uv rays without this sealer...Do it right and you'll be satisfied
i purchased this product through amazon.com, and while i was doing some shopping at walmart, i happened to find this product at a lower price than amazon was selling it at.but, anyway, i used the product on my brand new set of toyota headlight assembly. and i mean toyota headlight assembly, not some cheap knock offsBlue Magic 730-6 Headlight Lens Sealer - 8 oz.the product does not live up to its name.what a waste of time and money buying this product.if you want to keep your headlight assembly as new as possible, i suggest buying "turtle wax blue ice."you could apply the wax to hot headlight assemblies. no need to find a shady area to apply. best product on the market to keep your headlight looking nice and clear.
It did the job but only for so long. The application lasted about 3 months before another application was required to clear the head lights again.
I could not rate this product as it opened up in shipment and the bottle was completly empty.  I was sure glad it was wrapped in another plastic bag, which held about 1/2 of the liquid.  The rest was aborbed by the over sized back it was ship in.
I used this after the 3M headlight restoration kit. My lenses look very nice now. It has only been a few weeks, but the lenses still look very nice.
I've used the 3M restoration kit probably 3 or 4 times on the same car within the year.  But I've never seal my hard work with anything, and the lens just turn foggy and yellow within weeks.  So I tried this sealer after I used my 3M kit.  It has been a few weeks already with sun and rain.  The lens still looks like I just restored them last night.  I recommend at least trying this sealer to protect your effort of restoring lens.
I recently put this sealer on our two cars... one with brand new lens and one I had just finished polishing to for the first time. Difficult to assess since I really did not want to only place the sealer on one headlight and then have to polish one headlight later.
I love these hood catches, they are very robust and don't feel flimsy at all.  I have heard some people struggling to get them to fit properly, but I didnt have any trouble installing them on my 2013 JKU.  They completely eliminate any hood flutter and secure the inside of the hood.  I would definitely recommend this product.
I liked the design for two reasons. It locked the hood and it stopped the hood from jumping around when on the highway.Installation took a little dexterity to get the nuts started but its doable.Would have been 5 stars if there wa a bit more adjustment in the latch to allow a larger gap between the hood and fender. When the alignments were complete, I noticed that when it was latched it pulled the hood down so far that there was metal to metal contact with the fender / hood. I could not adjust the latch to allow for a larger gap. (even loosening the mounting screws). My solution was to use a piece of 1/4&#34; thick self adhesive foam tape and put a small piece at the contact point on each side.It works, its not that bad to install, just could have used a little more adjustment. Overall satisfied and would recommend (and purchase again for future Jeeps).
Easy install that gives you peace of mind when on the road.  It'll no longer be a piece of cake for someone to pop your hood and help themselves to engine parts at night.
Great locking device to keep the Jeep hood down. Less hood rattle due to tighter fit and better looking than the stock hood clasps. A little difficult installing due to location of studs and getting the nut to attach to the screw. Overall I am very pleased with the product.
These were easy to install and look good. They have a nice finish and are constructed very good. I would purchase again.
These were easy to install (driver side use an extender, passanger side, put the socket wrench up under the headlight to get it in there easier). It holds the hood down much better. The actual lock is ehh which is why I took off one star. Worth the cost and look great.
What a great product and even better its available on amazon, third party seller was great delivered within 3 days of ordering, such a simple installation into a 09 Jeep Grand Cherokee, air smells better already, much less than what the dealers are charging, (if they can figure out the correct part number to order it for you)
Its a high price to pay for a filter bracket, 2 push clips, and 1 filter.  Its saving grace is that it comes with a filter.Make sure you have the shop vac ready the space it goes into will be filled with leaves and mud and its a good idea to clean it out while you are in there.
I have a 99 WJ Grand Cherokee and had been putting off buying the cabin filter kit for some time. (Thanks Jeep for not including it on most of our vehicles). Finally bit the bullet and nabbed this one at a decent price.It comes with a filter as well as all the mounting hardware, not that there is much, but I've heard of guys ordering them from elsewhere and not receiving the push pin fasteners.Very pleased with my purchase, I already notice a significant reduction in dust inside the Jeep.
I can now breathe fresh air in my 03 grand cherokee.  I am glad that my lungs are taken care of.  I am batman.
As expected, this genuine Mopar part fit perfectly on my '03 Jeep Grand Cherokee WJ.  Clean air is great and this was worth it.
work very nice and bright blueish white more blue would recommend these lights got them for my toyo corolla i have for 3 weeks know and going thanks jlm good product
I bought 1 3K bulb from Xenondepot a few months back for 30 buck and it took 3 months to recieve and I got a pair for 25 and the 5k in super bright and the halogen is even brighter. I installed 1 in my Motorcycle and its Great, Also I recieved my bulbs with in 2 days. Thanks I'll be ordering again
This product doesn't even make a good boat anchor, I'm it returning asap .It was a failure to launch, it never worked.The wiring instructions if you can call them that were horrible, I've seen better stick men drawn . I'm a licensed electrician and this one was a puzzler even for me.The good thing, it was made with the cheapest components known to man , which helps the environment due to the lack of needed parts, it saved on weight for shipping.The best part was getting it all installed , and waiting for the magical moment to have new lights on my truck.Flip the switch and  .They say life is full of disappointments, and this is definitely one of them.
wow this lights are no joke. took me 10 mins to hook it up, if you can put battery in a remote control you can instill this lights, very bright at night i can really see everything. very powerful lights, for the price you can't go wrong i love iti would buy another pair.. the best lights i ever had.
Large old school ballasts, Does the job but not the best technology for the ballasts. SLIM Digital are the way to go!Works A+++ though!
I use this after I unhook the camper from the truck at camp and put over the ball on the truck hitch.  After one time of brushing my pants leg against the ball and getting great all over it, I now use this.  Problem solved.
It does what it is intended to.  After ruining a pair of shorts from leaning against a greasy hitch ball, I now use this religiously when not towing.  It has saved me from grease stains on my clothing too many times to count since then, as it is all too easy to brush against the ball when unhooking an RV.
I have lubricant grease on the ball for my trailer ... when I disconnect I need something to cover it from being rubbed up against and also need something to cover the ball that has lubricant on it when being stored as dirt and stuff can easily get on the grease then you have dirty grease with maybe small rock particles or what not grinding between your ball and your tongue on the trailer.It just makes sense to have an I could not find a 2-5/16&#34; cover anywhere around here so I got it amazon and it worked Great!
Little on the thin side, so probably will not last like my prior one (which was ~9 years). But what is really built to last any more!?!Ok for the price and was &#34;as expected&#34; from the ad/description/picture.
Fits and protects me from grease. Seems my hitch ball was like a clothing magnet; anytime I was near the rear of my truck I would find grease somewhere on my clothes. This 2 5/16ths fits perfect and no grease has gotten on me yet. Easy-open case and seems durable/thick/well-made. I highly recommend this type of cover for any greasy/dirty hitch-ball. Great Amazon price, especially with Prime.
Split the first time I used it and I have a 2-5/16 ball Save your money and find another manufacture for your ball covering needs.
This is very affordable and effective solution to protecting your trailer hitch ball.  It fits perfectly and is very durable and light-weight.
Needed this for 2-5/16&#34; hitch ball & wasn't easy to find locally so tried Amazon. It is good price & works as intended. Protects clothing from Grease & also protects Stainless Hitch Ball from damage
It fits well and now I am not worried about getting grease on my leg as much. It serves the purpose.
I gave this product 5 stars for the following:1) This product does everything it say's it will, and then some. No primary noise and the actuation of the clutch is improved.2) Amazon has been great about these types of products. Having them available is the first thing. Best prices anywhere with free shipping! (RedLine products are not readilly available in my area.3) I can place an order and get it within 3 or 4 days. Great service.
I love using this product in the primary of my Street Glide.  Costs slightly more than what Harley charges for their fluid, but I believe it is a far superior product.  When performing a drain and refill on my 2008 Street glide 38 ounces of oil is needed.  Need to purchase 2 quarts of Redline.
Dealerships charge a fortune for this item and if you look at the specs and government mandated ratings its as good as any, just has  less flamboyant packaging.  Now if A would carry clutch oil I would buy all my lubricants from them.
Used the RedLine transsmission fluid in my 2007 Road King and the improvement in shifting and smoothness was significant (I used Harley's SYN3 in all 3 cases up to this point). So I thought I would give the primary oil a try. To be honest I can not feel any change good or bad. I intend to stay with the SYN3 for the engine and will keep using the RedLine in my transmission. I will see what things look like after a years worth of riding and see if I keep using the RedLine primary oil as well.
Now the clunk is less audible, and sometimes not even happening.
Well. Just got my relay kit today and was looking at it and how it would fit the 2008 Saturn Vue. Its a good idea to use a relay kit to power up your HID's but it would be nice is the wires were long enough to reach the battery. This is a very easy plug and play setup, but no play if I cant wire it to the battery. Im going to have to splice more wire between the fuse and relay to make the wire long enough to reach the battery on the Saturn Vue. Not so much of a big deal, but the more cuts in a wire the higher the residence (ohms) you make. Working with high power car audio, you never make any unneeded cuts in your wiring. Voltage has to stop at each cut before it reaches the end and that's something good installers don't want. Like I said good relay kit, made very well just the wires could be longer. Even the wires to the HID's could be longer. Or GM before placing the battery should of thought ahead for something like this. I bought a set of HID's for a 1996 Mercury Grand Marquis and ordered the relay kit for that too. Big car, wonder how short the wires on the relay kit will be for that?3/24/14 Installed the relay kit. I had to add 5 inches to the main fused power wire, was a little short. All in all everything is working good and I put the fuse back in for my day time running lights and they even work good now. No more one light off and the other on. But I pulled the fuse out anyways. The HID's are on a timer with life. So having them on all the time lessens the life of the bulb.
This harness is of pretty good quality components and appears to be well constructed.  I was concerned that it might be too short after having read some of the other reviews, but I installed this to 2011 RAM and was able to route the wire to the remote ballast by running it in front of the radiator which gave me a straight shot to the ballast and actually had a few inches to spare.  I have monitored the temperature of the wiring and relay and have not witnessed any unusual heat buildup. However, if you plan on installing this, or any relay harness to a vehicle with a CANBUS electrical system, you will need to add a capacitor/diode setup to stop the relay from hyper triggering or "buzzing" under the hood when the vehicle is running.  Although the HID ballasts will fire the bulbs, this is caused by the CANBUS system sending very fast, pulsed current to the relay causing it to engage and disengage very quickly.  Without this modification, I doubt the relay would last very long and would probably fail prematurely due to excessive coil or contact wear.
These relays arent the best in the world. I purchased 2, one for my reg headlights and one for my fogs. One out of the two was bad before I even got it in my car. The other one went out 3 months down the line. Had to purchase some nicer more expensive ones so my lights turn on.
I got the 9006 or the HB4 harness I like it  seems to be well made sturdy and will do a good job for what I need so my headlight wiring doesn't take on so much stress with the hid lights
Harness has thick gauge wires, I have seen some where the wires are thin and cheap. This harness is made well.
Great harness for those of you who command great quality and workmanship for our car. It works superbly!!!!I just bought another for our commuter car. (To keep the headlamp circuit safe).As a professional 15A tech for a GM dealership for the past 2 decades, I recommend this for you!
I bought this at the same time as the HID kit I got just to make sure I wouldn't have to wait for shipping on more parts. Turns out I didn't need it. Build quality looks ok, could be done a little bit better, but I'm the kind of guy that wants equipment that is probably over engineered for the application. Would be good if you are pieceing together your own HID kit or conversion.
works, just time consuming to apply cleanly
I love Meguiars products, but I too was a bit disappointed with this as well. I have not tried others yet, but I will as soon as I run out of this. If you get it on paint, you have to really rub to get it out. If you apply it on chrome you have to really rub to get it out. If you have a black rubber in between the two you have to go super slowly trying not to touch either side. It is very good on wiper assembles and black plastic, but on rubber, it is disappointing. It is just okay. After reading my review I was a bit too harsh. This is really not a "black rubber" restorer; it is for plastic. So for plastic, I will give it a 4 stars. For rubber, I will use something else.
On my Jeep Wrangler I had several places that are plastic and seems like they always get scuffed. I have used several other products before using Meguiars and found  not one  be very effective. My problems is that it always seems to be temporary, since  after a few weeks I will notice the touch up begins to wear and the old scuff places reappear. It is not a lot of problem to retouch the area up, however don't expect this to be a one time only process. It looks very nice after application.
I am so pleased with this product. I could write a book on its merits. try it you will be impressed. and it cost so little to.
I used this on my 1998 BMW F650. It had some fading on all the black plastics after 16 years, this made it look like it was fresh out of the factory. I am so impressed with this product, I will be using it on all my vehicles now. My favorite part is that this is a conditioner, not a dye, so no mess at all. It also does not stay slick (which would be very bad on a motorcycle).By the way, it works on other colors than black, really any porous unpainted plastic bits (like the trim/ body panels on all new vehicles) of any color will look rich after a quick dab with this stuff.
As a car owner who has to park his car outside every day, I know how plastics tend to fade over time in the sun. It's an inevitability, and do I wish that the factory just painted all the parts of the car instead of having plastics showing. However, there is a fix to fading black trim. This product, dubbed the Ultimate black restorer, does its job well.This will restore black trim back to black, and I couldn't be happier. Its nice making a car that is 17 years old look next to new again with this, along with a good wax (Meguiar's Ultimate Liquid Wax). The bottle is rather large and will last for quite a while even if you are generous with applications. Try to keep this off the paint or wipe it up right away though.
This is a product that has overstated its abilities.  This product will be more useful for protecting vinyl from fading than it is for restoring badly faded vinyl.  If the vinyl is really faded, it will probably be necessary to use a dye and probably 2-3 applications of that to get a uniform appearance on the surface.  Two examples: http://www.amazon.com/Forever-Car-Care-Products-FB813/dp/B001879CUS/ref=sr_1_10?ie=UTF8&qid;=1404566736&sr;=8-10&keywords;=vinyl+dye and http://www.amazon.com/Solution-Finish-Black-Plastic-Restorer/dp/B006NZRAFE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid;=1404567046&sr;=8-1&keywords;=solution+finishAs for the running when it gets wet, this may be a function of using it too thickly and not buffing the surface to remove excess product.  This is just a WAG because I have not exposed the test surface to water yet.Faded exterior vinyl is one of the hardest problems to solve and it is 10X better never to let the vinyl fade in the first place.  The Meguiar's product should prevent this problem but it has a limited ability to restore vinyl.
turns that 10 year old grey black like they say but ul need to do it twice to work good.
What I like about this product is that it's dry to the ouch after it "cures" for about twenty minutes. It's not greasy and thus does not attract dust and dirt like a lot of the "wet look" products out there. Also this passed the water test without running.
This product required two or more applications to get good coverage.  Not what I expected from a Meguiar's product, Chemical Guys has a better product.
Could only give 4 stars, because I really expected better results.  The results were good, not great.  I have a 2008 Altima Coupe and the black trim on the outside was not up to par, so I decided to give this a try.  It improved the appearance, but not as well as expected.  I tried Turtle Wax Ice on some of the same trim, other side, and it came out about the same.  With the Ice, you can do car, windows, and trim with one product.
There might be better &#34;high-end&#34; products on the market but wow did this make such a great improvement on my 16 year old truck that has alot of black plastic.  It looks like it is just a year or 2 old now.
Don't expect any of these products to permanently fix the fading though. Lasts for a few weeks (3-4 max). Applying it twice seems to give it a more even appearance and less streaky. Always have this on hand when I detail just to give the car a nice finishing touch.
In the Florida heat and sun, this product will last a good while. Easy to apply and really looks good when your finished.
It works as claimed.  Another quality product from a well known brandOf car cleaning and protecting products. Easy on and easy off.
Very happy with this product. I was going to get Black Wow but thought I'd try this given how much cheaper it is and am very happy. It produces a nice finish and you can moderate the shininess by rubbing it with a clean cloth to remove more product after it has sat for a bit. It's lasted very well for me too, I'm surprised at the durability.
I have a work truck with hard rubber on the rear bumper, plastic running boards and a valance under the front bumper. All were really faded. I had tried quite a few other products and was about ready to paint these parts as nothing else really worked. I saw this Meguiars Ultimate Black Plastic Restorer at a local store (lot less $$ too) and knowing I could return it if I didn't like it, I gave it a try. I really couldn't believe how good the results were. There was one area that I didn't expect to get close to black but this Meguiars Ultimate Black Plastic Restorer worked great and the parts all started to look like new again. While not perfect it was darn close to new, certainly lot better than I had expected. Highly recommended for black exterior trim whether rubber, vinyl or plastic.
This product claims to restore black trim and lasts for two weeks. LOL. Just WETTING it makes it look new again so spit would work as good as this stuff. If you have car wax or car polish on the plastic trim (especially dull plastic trim) it is very difficult to remove. An old trick is to just put Armor All on it. That makes it look black for at LEAST two weeks. The best solution is to use denatured alcohol (be careful not to get it onto your paint) on a cotton swab or cloth, rub and dry. Then, put some Armor All original on there and you're good to go for WAY longer than two weeks. Been doing it for YEARS on my 1990 Camry and it works every time, .
I have a lot of black trim on my 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee that gets dirty easily especially after it rains (lots of water stains). One quick rub of this stuff and my trim is looking black, shiny, and new again!
It works well, the results is good, In my case the vinyl has some sectors with extra damage becaus of the sun, so the result was not same for the entire piece; shine and looks like new on some sectors but stills look bad on the extra damaged parts.Also the effect in my case is just for some days.
I used this on my black pickup truck which has a lot of black plastic and rubber.  The initial results looks very good, however it does not really last that long.  After a week of bad weather the items on the truck looked better than before I applied the product, however I had to apply it again to get the look back.  It is an OK product, just don't expect it to be a one-and-done.
Why bother with 10awg wire if the connection cannot pass the same current without heating?See that little detent/ finger grip in the photo?Mine did not come with that.  It looks just like the units I bought from allelectronics years ago, and almost every single plug/connector has given me serious issues at one point or another.These do fit a bit tighter than those.  I don;t know that I'll ever use them, I just do not trust this connector for anything more than 12 amps at 12 volts.I got some Anderson powerpoles rated for 30 amps.  12awg wire barely fit inside, but that connector can pass 25 amps all day long without getting warm.I wish I didn;t buy these, but won't make Amazon take them back,  i knew this type of connector was inadequate and took a chance that these would be much better built than my previous units which have been serious disappointments.I see no signs that they are, and am not going to put them onto any device which can pull more than 10 amps.
This is a fine entry level quick disconnect solution.The leads are short - total length of the loop is about 12 inches including the connector.The pins appear to be of expected quality, extended exposure might be a long term issue.Overall definitely worth the money - there are other solutions with higher quality, but this is an excellent value.
I have used and been disappointed by lighter constructed connectors however, these are much more rugged and well constructed to last and not pull apart after many connect/disconnect. Well pleased and highly recommend this product. I purchased these to install in line on my on board battery tenders for my vehicles. I clipped the power wires from charger to battery and soldered these connectors in line with shrink tubing for insulation. This way, when I am not plugged in to household current, I can unplug these slip connectors and break connection between the on board charger and the battery reducing the risk of the charger draining the battery should it malfunction. These connectors do the job nicely.
This style of connector is limited in it's current carrying capability, but that aside these are good connectors with nice thick copper wire.
Used this to adapt my solar charger from permanent tie down to easily removable.  I use a small solar charger to keep my travel trailer (TT) battery alive.  Just connect and go.PROInexpensiveGood gauge size for wiringworks with my Battery Tender Ring that is connected to my TT Battery.Cons:None
This 10 gauge thickness of wire is exactly what I was looking for unfortunately connectors have reverse color coding and was to short for my project.
Heavy Duty Wire and high quality quick connect and pins. These work like a champ. I have ordered many of due to the quality of the units.
This is a bright son of a gun. Works good for this mounting but if I had the room I used NEEWER T10 36 SMD LED Light Festoon Dome Bulb Lamp White 12V. But you can't allways and this works great in my RV's fridge!
These Suck. I bought 2 of these for my car, and only one of them worked. The one that did work was blinding and made the vehicle look tacky.Would not recommend
Its bright enough for normal usage but dont expect it to blow your mind or anything, I already upgraded to bulbs a bit brighter
This light is perfect for my sister lexus. it's really brightnow she can see everything in the car now.keep up the good job guys..
Simple, quick review.These work great for interior lights, IF YOU HAVE THE ROOM!They are VERY BIG , so make sure you have the room before you put them in!They have metal contacts on the back of the LED panel that can (and do) short out if you have a metal backing in your interior light AVOID THEM!Great light out put if they work in your light fixture.Be careful they are easy to break if forced.A little expensive but should last for years, if you have the right light fixture.
INSTALLED THESE AND YOU CAN BARELY EVEN SEE , WHICH IS NOT GOOD AT ALL.. NOW I NEED TO GET DIFFERENT ONES...
I have this in my 1998 Ford Explorer XLT w/gray interior, untrimmed.  I haven't had the chance to trim it yet, but I might just keep it the way it fits since I like having the sides of the mat riding up as to prevent liquids from getting under it to the carpet (which has saved me many times already).  Friends and family always compliment it and ask where to get it since it looks and performs so nice.
I bought this for my Mazda CX-5 and it fits well. I like that I can flip the sides up and have small walls or lips to the mat. The mat is a bit thin but will protect my car well and I don't imagine it breaking or tearing.
I put this into my DC2 Integra.  I was able to cut this with a sharp utility knife.  It works well to protect items and it's a very hard rubber or plastic type of material.  Don't expect this to absorb much impact.  It's on the slippery side which is good for me so i can move htings around easily in the trunk.
Ok this cargo mat  is great for protecting your trunk. I brought it for my Prius and I did not even end up cutting it... I just folded it up so it could also protect the back of the backseats. Overall it is nice... it has some dimples at the bottom that stop it from moving around and it also has a nice rough surface at the top so your items do not move around much in the trunk. Anyway very good buy but it really stinks... so you need to buy some Febreeze or whatever to make it smell better before you put it in your car...
I bought this because i am tired of my carpet in my trunk shifting around. I laid it out, put weight on it to flatten it out a while,then laid my carpet on top and trimmed with shears.  Installed perfect fit perfect. Easy as that! Anybody can install this if they have a pair of shears and an example piece that they can go by. Literally from flatten to installation was 5 minutes. I say flatten because it comes as a roll and will not lay flay right when unraveled. Put weight on it a while and its fine. Fits good amd was exactly what i was looking for.
Be sparing in the amount of colored repair paste you use. The clear filler shrinks upon drying, but the heat-activated colored paste seems to form a raised blob on the surface of the repair if too much is used. Better to repeat the application than end up with a raised blob. Also -- a small electric craft iron is a much better heat source than the supplied heat-transfer iron.
better understand now what you can do (repair) and what not... if you are trying to mend a tear or rip just simply forget it...
We must be realistic with these kits:  once the leatherette or vinyl is ripped or torn it well never look perfect and new again.There has been damage, and anything you use will build it up a bit and be impossible to look like new.Even so, if you do get a rip, this material will allow you to seal it up, close up the hole, and prevent it from getting snagged and made worse.The price is rasonable and the glue/adhesive is of course, being 3M, of excellent quality and suer does weork well.mixing for color is not too hard, and merely requires patience to persevere to get the color as close as possible to do.I used it on my boat and thought it was very much better than nothing, and better than a lot of money to have sections replaced.
I had a whole in the seat upholstery in my Jeep. The surface was cracked all around the hole, so it was sort of a spiderweb. I used the adhesive that comes with the kit to fill the hole and cracks, and it seems to work okay. It is white, but dries clear. Then you do the hard part. You get a number of small containers of the surface material (sort of like thick paint) which you have to combine and mix to get the right color.  That is harder than it seems.  If you have black upholstery you are in luck. In other cases you are going to be mixing.  You use a small tool that comes with the kit to mix and spread the surface material over the repaired area, matching the color (hopefully) and filling in any remaining imperfections. You then have to cover the repaired area with the 'paper' material in the kit, so the finish will match the grain. Then you have to apply heat to the surface (covered with the paper) to cure the surface material. You get a 'tool' to do this - a piece of wooden dowel rod with a dime size metal disk on the end.  You are told to heat it on an iron, and rub the paper.  I did this a few times, but it was taking forever for the heat to dry and cure the glue. Then I pulled out the old reliable travel iron (which we don't use), and heated it to the cotton level, and use the tip of the iron to rub the paper.  That worked much better that the little tool. The end result is a patch.  You can see it - probably because of the slight difference in color.  The patch is flexible which is perfect for a seat area. Best of all, the spiderweb is not expanding. So, all in all, it did what I wanted it to. If you can do a better match on the color you will be more satisfied. Do not expect that the gash on your dashboard will be filled and invisible - it will be better, maybe much better, but not perfect.
Put a small hole in my leather motorcycle seat and this product fixed it in just a few minutes.  Worked exactly as they advertised it and I appreciated being able to fix the hole.
really great suction or pump!!!  Just what I needed for my garage or tool.  It comes in handy!! great price too
The pump has worked perfectly to fill a couple of rear differentials.  Probably be in the garage using it again this weekend.
This pump works just fine, fluid doesn't leak out of the plunger mechanism. It is meant for a gallon bottle and screws right to the top but I used it for smaller bottles as well - just had to trim the opening a little. Cheap! And very handy to have around the shop
I bought this to change the VTM fluid on my Honda Pilot.  It worked like a charm.  The end of the hose has a barb fitting that locks into the fill hole at the top of the differential.  This is a great design feature for my use because the fill hole on the Pilot is recessed, making it difficult to hold a hose in place.  I was able to pump 3 quarts of VTM-4 fluid in about 20 pumps with no leaks or spills.  Great item for the price.
I did not know how big the tubes were untill I got it out of the box. I was thinking of using this to suck out fluids from my car like steering fluid and brake fluid but the tube was too big for it to fit in the over flow. I was able to Jimmy-Rig it to work. It takes a few pumps for it to start working but does a good job keeping it from going back in where it came from. I did have to flip it up-side-down in order for the remaining fluid to get pumped all the way through it. I was not sure how to clean it out so I pumped some degreaser through it to hopefully get some of the oil out. Feels fairly strong for the price.Don't let the picture fool you it is fairly big
I purchasedLucas 10013 Fuel Treatment - 1 Gallonand a few smaller bottles of fuel treatmentLucas 10020 Fuel Treatment - 5.25 oz.along with this pump. So now I save money by buying in bulk and have the small bottles to refill to make it easy to leave in the car and put in my gas tank. True to form this thing pumps about 1oz a pump so 5 pumps and my bottles are full. The pump head has a place to hang the filler tube to prevent leaking.
This works great. Screws on to the top of a one gal jug to pump fluids. Worked perfect to change the rear diff fluid on my Honda pilot. No need to try to pour and spill everywhere.
Used this to pump out power steering fluid.  Nice job pumping and will probably use it for other fluids.  I am batman.
I looked at all pumps and decided to try this one and I def made the right choice. This thing works great and it has quality parts on it.. DEF recommend it
I was tired of dealing with the typical low-powered, very slow 12-volt pumps that are commonly available, so I did a search for a higher-quality unit that led to this 88P model. So far I am not disappointed. It appears to be very quality-built, it runs quietly and it fills tires much quicker than the typical 12-volt pumps. Plus, this unit is rated to pump up to 120 psi. Be aware that this one is designed to clip to the battery terminals, not plug into a 12-volt car outlet. That is not a fault; it clips to the battery so that there is enough current for it. A typical 12-volt outlet would likely not have enough circuit capacity to run it, and would blow fuses. This unit has its own in-line fuse.  The instructions suggest that the vehicle engine be running when using the pump so you don't drain the vehicle battery, but I do use it for short periods of time without the engine running.  I have had it only a few days, so I will post an update if something goes wrong. But at this point I am extremely happy with the pump and believe it will prove to be very useful and durable, and it appears to be well worth the extra money beyond the typical cheaper units.
Long cord and air hose, chuck is good quality. First impression is that the unit is much quieter than I expected. More of a low drone than a loud clatter. Definitely worth keeping around for emergency use.
I purchased this compressor to replace a cheap compressor I purchased at the auto parts store. There is no comparison. This compressor inflates my tire as quickly as a gas station compressor and I don't need quarters! Having to attach it to the car's battery is a bit of a pain, but that is the price you pay for performance. This thing inflates so fast, despite having to connect to the battery, you still save time compared to the cheaper units that plug into the lighter socket. A must have. I try to check my tire pressure with every 10 degree temperature change. You should too. One more thing, the air pressure gauge is extremely accurate.
This is the most impressive low-cost compressor I've ever seen.  I use it to air up my Jeep's 35x12.50-15 tires after going offroad.  It brings them up from 11 psi to 30 in about 20 minutes for all four of them.  Other offroaders are surprised at how well it works for this price, and a few have bought them also.Note that it gets very hot while doing this much work.  I splash a little bottled water over the compressor head every few minutes to cool it.
I needed a pump for large truck tires. Most of the others arent up to the task and overheat before filling up a single tire. While this wont go as long as Viair's top of the line, it doesnt cost two hundred plus dollars either.I have ran it non stop for five minutes. It gets hot but does not quit. The cable is nice and long. Does not come with a bag so I went to home depot and got a small husky soft side tool bag that works great.Guage is accurate on mine as I tested with two seperate tire gauges.Good value, good product.
I needed a portable compressor that could inflate my 33&#34; tall tires on my truck. Well, the 88P will do just that is about 5 minutes, with the truck running (pulls a large draw of power). Just clip the alligator clips on the positive and negative, twist on the brass inflator chuck on the valve stem,  turn the compressor on, and off it goes! I combined this purchase with the Black Mechanics 9191 Tool Bag (11x7x6) because Viair doesn't include a carry bag (you just get the cardboard package to store it back into). Cardboard will NOT last, but a canvas bag will! I really like this compressor, get one for yourself...
I have used this to air up completely flat REAR FULL SIZED TRACTOR TIRES. It's the real deal. It would have been nice to get a carry bag with it, it's too nice a tool to have just rolling around in the trunk with no protection. If all you're trying to do is air up tires, toys or the like, this will do fine, no matter how big the tires are.
Although this is not a cheap compressor it should last. It inflated a couple of tires fairly quickly and seems to be well built.
We shopped around for an air compressor to place in our old pickup truck.  The Vlair seemed to best suit our needs in a price range that we could afford.  The truck is used strictly for utilitarian purposes and does not have the best tires.  So, the pump gets used often to reinflate them.  It has never failed to fill our needs and fills the tires rapidly and accurately.
To start with, you can't do much better than the fine review J. Schaeffer put up on this and comparable units. His info made this purchase a slam dunk for me. Long story short, I don't think there's a better value in inflators.Here's a few pros and cons than may not have come up elsewhere+ Solid and well made. The unit is heavy and everything on it is substantial, including the little storage ports for the inflation accessories.+ Easy use. Connect it, run it until you're ready to check pressure, switch it off to see if tire is fully inflated.+ Fills quickly. I'm ready the leave at the same time as the kids with on-board compressors.+ Long cord and hose - keep in mind I have a 2 door Wrangler; your longbed crewcab may be another story.+ Compact. Fits great in the storage well of my Jeep JK's back seat area, along with a tow strap and receiver hook.+ Threaded valve - positive connection that doesn't pop off like garage style clipsCons- Gauge seems vary  3-4 #- Gets hot. Of course the body of the pump gets hot, but even the hose near the unit gets uncomfortably hot. You'll find out when your fills are done and you go to coil it up. Gloves are a nice idea.One thing I might note: I let the Jeep idle while I fill and the unit sounds like it's cycling up or down, but I've concluded this is due to additional loads on the battery switching on and off while your vehicle runs. It's particularly noticeable if your air conditioning is on while you fill.I've used this unit 4 times since I got it, and have been impressed every time. This is a first-line purchase for any off-roader, and a great piece of kit for any light portable inflation needs. This is the one to get!
This is by far the best portable air compressor I have ever owned. It is very capable and fast. A light truck tire can be completely inflated (to 35 PSI) in less than 5 minutes. it is well made with cast aluminum instead of plastic like so many of the others. And the price is not so much where it is unaffordable. I like the schrader valve fitting at the end of the generously long hose. I made an adapter from a 1/4&#34; NPT schrader valve to a clamp on tire valve so I can inflate my tires without unthreading the coupling and loosing air in the process.
Tried this out today and was pleased. I did an oil change on my GF's BMW 325ci and checked the tire pressures. The rear tires were both about 4lbs light so I hooked this up and it took about 5 seconds to fill each tire up to the required pressure.  It is not to noisy and appears well built.I also bought the Rothco mechanics bag that is suggested with this and it fits perfectly, although a little tight when combined with the 6ft hose extension, tire repair tools & supplies.4 stars because it does not come with its own bag and for terminal clamps that could be a little larger, but other than that a really nice unit for backups/emergencies.
It did a great job of inflating tires. The gauge is accurate and the screw-on adaptor works very well. However, the clamp jaws are too small to clamp on the battery posts. I ended up have to use a jumper cable on the battery end and then clamp it on the other end of the cable to get a decent connection.
Bought this to air up my tires on my Jeep XJ when offroading.  I have used the unit several times and it has worked as advertised.  Great unit for the price.  I read where some have complained of the small clips for the battery and I do agree with them.  If you don't have a &#34;military post&#34; battery terminal, it may be difficult for you to attach to the battery terminal.  Since I have that kind of terminal, connection is easy.  Your milage may vary there, depending.The unit is quieter than I had expected it to be and is a workhorse.  I have used it on other tires (lawn mower, motorcycle, etc.) and it fills them up quickly.  The time for my 31&#34; tires is quicker than I expected as well.  No regrets on purchasing the item.  This particular model did not come with a bag, but it is small and will fit in any small zipper bag.
Pretty powerful little guy.  Great for emergencies.  I was able to top off my 33 inch offroad tires with. No issues. I wish the cables were a little longer.  That would have pushed it to five stars.  Hard to reach the back opposite side on my full size truck.  Cars should be fine.
I bought this pump to replace a portable air compressor that I used for years on my Jeep and bought it based on previous reviews. After several uses, I will say this is a perfect compressor and much lighter, functional, and quieter than my previous pump of the same price. I will buy this again if needed. Great purchase.
This compressor is the real deal, not to be confused with plasticy imitation-tough compressors.  It pumps passenger tires very quickly.
I've burned out the cheaper inflators I have purchased at big box stores. And, they simply take forever. This unit is awesome--I use an old ATV battery to make it portable. The long air line is high quality and this machine is a beast. My high-pressure truck tires no longer take forever to fill. I'll watch the duty cycle carefully to make it last as long as possible. If there is some unforeseen issue with longevity, I will edit my post. Very happy with the product.
Love this Compressor! Should make a bag for it..stores in box..alittle cheesy..come on VIAIR.. airs up my 31" off road tires, effortlessly..also bought an ARB tire deflator & works well with that item..
I got this to maintain tires for our 3 family cars and to occasionally help some of my friends to do the same. I've used this for a few weeks and I'm already impressed by it - the physical build quality is great, no loose or rattling parts, the compressor is not overly loud and doesn't &#34;jump&#34; all around the pavement during the work. The hose and the screw-on chuck are also pretty sturdy and feel like they would last a very long time. The built-in pressure gauge is fairly accurate (just make sure to turn compressor off before looking at the gauge) but you should still get a separate dedicated tire pressure gauge (preferably not some cheap plastic crap with digital display). The only minor drawback is the lack of the storage bag but it's not an issue if you primarily store it at home and you can find plenty of aftermarket bags which can easily fit this in. Overall it's a great product and much, much better than various similar products by more &#34;recognizable&#34; brand names.One minor warning, though - make sure to measure the distance between your car's battery terminals and the rear tires on your vehicle BEFORE purchasing this model. The attached power cable and the hose are long enough for most cars and compact SUVs but you might need to order power cable extension or purchase a different model (Viair sells plenty of these) with longer cable/hose if you have a pickup truck with a long bed length or a large SUV.
These are very nice air pumps and seem to be high quality and well made. They will fill up a tire quickly.
I read alot of reviews before buying this and almost went with the lesser model (70P). However, I didn't want to mess with blowing fuses so I got this model that connects directly to the battery. It could not be more simple to hook this thing up! It is easy to use and pumps quite fast (no idea how long from flat to full as I only had to top off at most 8PSI). The first thing that struck me when I opened the box is how solid this compressor it feels. Very little plastic and lots of high-quality metal construction. I was thoroughly impressed. Overall, I have no complaints whatsoever with this pump. Cords are extra long to reach all the tires on the vehicle ('96 Buick Lesabre) with feet to spare. Buy this compressor and you will not be disappointed. In fact, you will probably be a bit spoiled and will not want to ever go back to the wimpy plasticy compressors.
Returned a different companies compressor and ordered this one. All the reviews were on the money. Would recommend this product in a heart beat to anyone. Quiet, accurate and durable. Use it once a month on 5 cars and other asst stuff.
bought this as a backup but after trying it once, we decided to use it as the primary air compressor.  Keep the engine running!!!it will put 25-28 psi in 35&#34; tires in about 2-3 minutes/tire, maybe less.
Used it to fill a tahoe and a small car, both works well and the pump doesn't even drag at all. Nicely built pump compressor, recommend this over the cheaper plastic ones.
This is a good air compressor in terms of how well it performs and the specs, etc however I was disappointed that it does not come with a carrying case like some other models by Viair.  Considering this is one of the more expensive models, it should come with that, which is way better than just storing the product box in your vehicle.I opted to purchase this bag to put the compressor in and it fits well, but I hate that I had to spend more money on something that should be included:G.I. Style O.D. Mechanics Tool BagThe fact that this connects directly to your vehicle battery is a plus. I've had other air compressors in the past that used the cigarette lighter however they can burn your fuse quickly. With a model that connects to the battery directly, there is no chance of burning out a fuse in your vehicle. Be sure to start up the engine before using this so you don't drain your battery though.for my usage, I probably could have gotten by with a much cheaper and lower powered Black and Decker model which plugs into the cigarette lighter without a problem. It would take longer and not be as enjoyable to use however would have saved me some hard-earned money.Another negative is that the battery jumpers on this are really small; they don't even fit over my entire battery terminals. The tiny clamps should be much bigger.If you use a Viair model that has a lighter plug on it in conjunction with this adapterRoadpro 12V Battery Clip-On and Cigarette Lighter Adapter, you will find that the battery jumpers are bigger and can clamp on to the battery much better.
After considering and rejecting many of its competitors, I chose this unit. It is fast and just plain works great! Be glad that is uses battery clips instead of a cigarette lighter power source -  you need the extra amps this option provides.I do wish it had a quick disconnect end so that other devices could be easily attached, but they can be easily spliced on if that is important to you.
I've tried with my Toyota Hilux 013 double cab, and it's perfect to carry,it can be use to inflate several devices or vehicles, i've use with one Yamaha Serow tyres and it pump it up in few seconds, the one thing that other people and myself considers noot good is about there aren't carry bag and no information.Well about all, buy it, it's very powerfull, stable , strong , you'll have a little monster with high perfomance.
Overall these replacement LEDs are good and once installed good bright bluish white lighting inside the cabin. The trunk LED is the coolest among all and is not a direct 'Fuse' type bulb replacement, rather an LED array with 3M adhesive pad to be stuck in a nice slot within the Trunk lighting. Was surprised it fit so well and seems to be purpose built for that. Not sure if other Honda Trunk lights are similar. It is a breeze to install. Just be careful how you pop the lens / light covers.But a highly false marketing on the LED Flashlight freebie ($15.88), it is a keychain LED that one can get for 50 Cents.These LED bulbs are good enough to sell without the freebie and false marketing. The seller need not mislead customers casting a shadow on the vendor's credibility. Also I could find nowhere the bulbs are made in Japan as the seller claims.
Big difference in lighting!  Things are much easier to see with these LEDs.  The only tricky part of installation is popping off the covers. Look up You Tube videos to see how to pop the covers off.  If the LED doesn't go on, just flip it around.  Other than that, they're awesome!
These lights really light up the interior of our Pilot, everyone that rides in our car has decided they have to get some too.
Works on my Honda Pilot 2012. My front map lights burned out prematurely so I got these to try out. This is excellent in every way except it is potentially too bright to keep on at night.Use the link below for pictures on how to replace lights. If the link doesn't work google (32886-led-interior-light-kit-install-2013-pilot-lots-pix). Basically have a skinny butter knife or thin flat head screwdriver. It is super easy to pop off the light covers. Make sure to align correctly on map light and rear window light. Those have directionality apparently so if it doesn't work in one direction, pop out and flip around.[...]- LED is whiter than the yellowish OEM lights- LED is brighter by a noticeable amtI'm very pleased with the purchase. for $11, it is a no-brainer. I'm actually keeping the middle and backseat OEM lights as I like to watch the kids while I drive at night. I worry the LEDs will be too bright initially.Will update if things change... but for now highly recommend.
These are much brighter than the stock bulbs.  The put out a slightly bluish-white hue but it still look great.  I especially like the lower power draw and less heat produced.
Just what I need for my pickup.  Ties anything down securely and worry free.  No tangle when stored as its retractable.  Go for the wider belt (2&#34;), dont go for the narrow 1&#34; as it will twist and tangle up when you are retracting.  Also the 2&#34; belts has better coverage and distribution of the pressure so it does not cut into things (boxes).
I purchased 8 of these straps ( 4 packs)....out of the 8, 2 didn't retract to the closed position. But they were fairly easy to work once you got the hang of them.
These are very nice, I use them to hold a jeep wrangler on a trailer and they work perfect for this.
It's worth understanding that unlike typical ratcheting straps, the handle has two "rest" positions.  One of the jobs of the red tab is to jump the handle from one position to the other.  In one position, the device works like a seat belt retractor, with the strap able to pay out or self-retract, just like seatbelts in a car.In the other position, the handle works like a typical ratcheting strap system.  HOWEVER, even in this position, realize that these straps are made of seatbelt material, which is kind of slick, so the wound up material will slip over itself on the spool quite a bit before you get maximum belt tension.When you ratchet the belt down, keep tightening until all this "slip" or "slack" is pulled out.  Then tighten it some more for good measure!  And most importantly, when you're done tensioning, DO NOT return the handle to the "seat belt retractor mode" position, or you can lose tension all together.  With normal ratchets, you're probably used to returning the handle all the way back down flat prior to hauling.  On this product, that's bad, because putting the handle all the way down flat is the "retractor mode" position!  You'll need to leave the handle slightly up for "locking-ratcheting mode".  It will look funny, but it is the position it needs to be in.I can see a situation, in some applications, where the hustle and bustle of freight handling can cause the lever to be unintentionally whacked down flat into the "retractor mode" position, which may cause the belt to go slack.  That is a risk.  For my application, these are wonderful, and greatly simplify tidying up your straps.
these straps are game changers.  i will never go back to the old style straps for anything but general utility.  these take 1/4 of the time the old straps do.  the only thing is the price.  they still wear out like other straps..  if the webbing is against something, it will still wear through, just like any other strap.  but if you make the mistake on these, you are throwing 20 bucks out of the window.  i only use these for tying down atv's or anything else where i can be completely certain that the only part of the strap touching anything but air is the hooks.
Will not buy again. Tooo small of amount and marginal performance.
I spent about 1.5 hours applying it to my '02 Explorer's gray trim.  It looks great now.  I started out applying too little product because I was afraid the small bottle would run out before I finished the vehicle.  Once I started using an ample amount, the process worked much better.  My explorer has a lot of trim and even after I was done, there was still a little bit left in the bottle.  I will soon be ordering another one to use on other vehicles.Although I still don't know how long this will last...other reviews have me confident enough to buy another bottle.Edit 7/20/13:Buying bottle number 3 for another vehicle...the first use on my '02 was about 8 months ago and it still looks great.
ReNu Finish is the only one that works for any length of time.  I've use 4 or 5 others that keep the fenders black on my 2010 Jeep for one or two wash's or rain storms and then do it again. I lived in CO. this summer, where it rained every two days and had to recoat fenders only every two months with ReNu. With normal weather, which I'm getting now, ReNu would probably last at least 5 or 6 months. It takes a little work getting it on but its worth it. Make sure to wipe it dry when done. I'll update this when I give more time.
I will never need to use another brand again. A small bottle, but a little goes a long way. Put it on in direct sunlight, let it bake in, and it lasts for months.
This product is ok, it works well but not good enough, I do like it and still use it but it does not do a great job cleaning plastic or rubber bumpers.
I used this on my 1998 honda civic and it worked pretty well. It's not the best, but if you want to polish a turd than this is your product.
goes on easy and looks good but time will tell how long it will last. it is a dye but washes off easily. hoping this lasts longer then back to black which washes off easily.
I have used all kinds of plastic protectors/shine restorer, this is the best. I have an FJ Cruiser with bush wackers, snorkel and plenty of other exterior black plastic. I live in Colorado and with the mag chloride they use on the road, even a high pressure washer won't remove it. I hand washed my truck then put this stuff on. I know some people say it doesn't cover much....my truck is huge and has tons of plastic. You just put 3-4 drops on the sponge provided and rub it on. After awhile, come back and buff it. I would say I used a half teaspoon on the whole exterior. After about 2 weeks of cold/subzero weather and tones of snow/mag chloride, plastic looks great. No hand washing, and it has a new car shine to the plastic. Keep in mind this plastic has texture to it, great for grime to stick to.I'm just really happy with performance, price and how long this is gonna last me. Cheaper than most any other product I've used.
This product does shine the black plastic trim and that shine seems to last longer than most other dressing type products. However, it did not make the faded black trim black enough for me. It only mostly adds shine, but does not really add much if any black back.Also, it's very expensive for a tiny little nail polish bottle size bottle.At this price, I don't know that I would purchase this again when it runs out.
The bottle looks small but there is enough stuff inside to do a car twice and my car has full plastic unpainted bumpers front and back.The initial result was very good and the plastic looks was better compare to before. It is more rich and no longer looks faded even though the car is 8 years old.The finish held up over the several rainy days. I'll update the review once it has been a few month.Update: So far a few month has passed and I'm still happy with the result. Rain and sun don't seems to affect it and the "new" look is still there.
Whether or not it's a 'true synthetic' to oil geeks isn't the point.  It's a high quality synthetic that is very cost effective and keeps my turbo Saab happy and ran very well in my Hexhead BMW.
From all the guys that send their oil out to the labs .. And the studies say that this stuff is the best .. So I use it.
I have no issue with this oil.Not sure anyone can really tell any difference.I usually use Mobil One and Walmart super tech synthetic oil.All works fine.  This one does have a wider temperature rating, from 5-40w, making it a true all season oil for us in the milder weather of the People's Republic of California.For those folks where there is real snow on the ground, probably better off with something with a 0w rating.
T6 is recommended by a lot of people for bikes with wet clutches. I've had great personal experience with it. Buying it in bulk like this saves me a ton of money too. Recommended.
This is my favourite oil for my 1998 shadow aceJASO MA approvedClass 3 fully synthetic oil.&#34;Stout' oilCheap to boot.Thank you amazonOnly complain is that it is only made available to the USA.
After reading up info on fourms, I have been using this stuff for my SV1000S. Works just like the motorcycle oil for the wet clutch and has no problems slipping or anything. Saves gobs of cash over the $9.00/qt suzuki stuff.
Meets the factory specs for my 2003 VW passat. Wish it would come in a slightly larger bottle since the car needs 4.5 quarts with a filter change.
I run 10 quarts of this in my Duramax, having replaced conventional oil. When I was searching for synthetics the price of most was prohibitive. Rotella, as they do with their standard oils, is a real value. Of course, oil ratings are subjective unless you do an analysis. So far the oil feels good off of the stick (you can't rate color on a diesel--they look black almost right away). I'll update this at 10,000 miles
Great synthetic oil. It works awesome in a Honda Rincon. Helps it to shift better, smoother, and run great. Do not go back and forth between Synthetic and regular.
i use Rotella 5w40 in just about everything. It is an excellent high performance oil with light weight when cold to travel through the motor quickly and a high protection weight for high performance motors. All my motorcycles (twins/triples and in line 4 cylinders) love the oil and allows a faster start up. My QX56 and Jeep SRT8 loves the oil as well. This is highly recommended for everything BUT big twin old school S&S motors. They dont have the tighter valve tolerances of the modern engines and will burn the 5w40 before she can heat up appropriately. You need to use a 20w50 full synthetic on those bad boys.. BUT the 5w40 full synthetic has performance well in everything else!
Mine drew a blocked off manifold gauge set line down to 30inhg, and it did not complain about doing so.  I have not tested it yet on a big container, but will report back if it cannot do that.It comes with 1/4" male flare fitting, and an adapter to step it up to 1/2" acme, so you can connect it to an r134a a/c gauge set, or similar.  You will need to buy oil, as the instructions say it needs an oil change almost immediately after filling it up and running it the first time.  After doing the oil change as instructed, I found the oil to be dirty, so oil change was a good idea.  The manual also says that the first cure to almost any issue with the operation of the unit is to change the oil.  Go figure.
Awesome! Worked perfect, I was at -29 in 20 seconds on my B6 Audi A4. This pump did exactly what it was suppose to do. Held vacuum running for an hour with no problems. Glad I saved a few bucks and went with the 1.5 as it gives the same results as the bigger pumps in a small application like an Audi A4.
It is a handy add on when needed.  It works to vacuum the AC system without any issues.  However, the suggestion to change pump oil every time is a bit over killed.
Sorry for the sophomoric title - I could not resist!  This product worked well.  It drew down the system quickly and held the correct vacuum for out complete system overhaul. It worked as advertised, is well made and come with everything you need to get up and running quickly (assuming you have a good set of gauges).  I have used it a few times and expect it to keep working for me down the road.
Comes with enough oil to fill the tank.  Bought this to evacuate my car AC system after replacing a blown compressor.  Excellent product, very quiet.  Pulled a vacuum quickly and stabilized within 15 minutes, but let it run for 1.5 hours so that the moisture in the receiver/dryer would be removed.  This obviates the need to replace the dryer just for moisture control.
All that Noco makes is first rate,top quality in everything I have purchased that was from Noco.I love my two genius chargers.The first one I bought was the2 bank,then I got the 3bank,both are the marine type.They work perfectly.
My bike has the SAE fitting on it, so I needed this adapter to connect my Genius charger.  It works perfectly, just as advertised.
Converts standard SAE to NOCO custom connector. Excellent quality and excellent attention to detail just like their chargers. I expect this to last many years.I also have bought the NOCO extension cord 10' excellent quality as well..NOCO GC004 NOCO Genius Black/Red 10 Foot Extension CableNOCO products are more expensive than other brands. I have found with NOCO products you get the better quality you are paying for.You can buy all NOCO accessories on their website: geniuschargers dot comSome things are cheaper on NOCO's website with their 25% discount and free shipping. I don't know if this is a temporary promotion. (12/30/12)
Plugs right into the SAE plug that comes out of my H-D motorcycle. Too bad that NOCO requires it, but it works.
This adapter works just fine to connect a NOCO charger to any SAE battery charger cable. I have quite a few and this allows me to standardize and use my existing connections.
Since when are heated carseats "basics"?The AmazonBasics heated seat cushion is a great solution for those without built-in heated car seats.  Like other reviewers said, it does its job well, appears to be well constructed, and (most important) apparently can not be left plugged into the lighter as it will drain the car battery.
Works just fine for the price.  And my Wife's bum is warm now on cold winter mornings.  Easy to install. Yes I would recommend this product to a friend.
Easy to install and works quite well.  The only potential downside is that it isn't real wide, so if you have a large car seat, this seat warmer may not give you the coverage you desire.  It fits my compact car seat nicely.Installation is quite easy & the instructions are pictures that are easy to follow.  Once on, and even without using the front hooks, the seat warmer doesn't move around significantly when entering & exiting the car.  Comfort-wise, I notice the extra cushion because it seems to push me forward ever so slightly, and I have had to adjust my driving position to compensate.Warmth-wise, the seat warmer heats up fairly quickly (under 1 minute) & it does a pretty good job of regulating the heat.  You can feel the heat ebbing, but the seat warmer kicks in quickly to get the warmer back up to the chosen level.  Heat levels are low & high and both work well.  In fact, many times, on a cold morning, I'll start in high mode, but switch to low after 15 minutes.For the price, this seat warmer is a winner.  I don't have to worry about needing to wear a coat when driving because the seat warmer does its job on a cold day.
Funny how inexpensive this is vs other brands. It does take a little while to heat up but purely awesome for the price.
I bought this heated cushion for my wife and she just loves it. I always unplug it when not in use.
This item works well for the winter but just DON'T FORGET TO TAKE THE PLUG OUT after you are done using it. If not, even if you have the car off, it will suck out the life of the battery.
The amazonBasics 12-volt heated seat cushion makes cold mornings bearable.It installs easily and stays secure with hooks on the bottom. The color and the fabric are good.It is very easy to use just plug it in and turn it on, it has several temperature settings and it makes the morning commute very comfortable. Just make sure to unplug it when you arrive. I love it and think it would make a great gift.
This one is a little better than one similar product I had previously. It slips around less and blends in well with my black leather seats. If you don't have heated seats in your vehicle this can be great! I wish it included an indoor plug as well, that would have earned at least another star.
I am always colder than my wife so this works well to keep me warmer.  I really enjoy how fast they heat up and it makes driving more comfortable.  The drawback is they don't stay put very well when gettting in and out of the car.  Also the electrical cord is kind of a nuisance having it plugged in to the power outlet.
Product worked great for three days. Then that was it. Seemed like a good product at first but definitely can't recommend.
So far they have held up well and keep the backside warm.  The do slide around if the clips are not used.  Control could be a bit further from the seat.  I am happy with the unit and would buy it again.
For under $20, this was the perfect accessory to keep me warm in the winter; especially when first leaving home and the car is not putting out heat yet. It is comfortable to sit on, doesn't scorch, and provides enough warmth that the car's heat doesn't need to be turned up very much on the colder days.  I like it because ti stays clean, and has an indicator light on the plug to let you see that the fuse is still intact, and it is plugged into a powered socket.  The only thing I think could be better is how it fits on seats; it seems to shift to the sides, and bunch in at the base of the back.Recommended for anyone needing additional warmth when driving in cold weather, and cares enough about the environment and longevity of their automobile to not &#34;warm&#34; the car up by idling: Such a waste of gas and unnecessary wear on the the engine!
my girlfriend has leather seats with no heat...can you imagine that in cold weather?...not good...I bought her this thing to help her because she gets so cold (and who wouldn't in leather seats during the winter)...she loves it and says it works perfectly ...I haven't even hooked it into the bottom part of the seat yet...I just drapped it over the top of the seat...I'm going to order another one, so I'm not cold when I'm riding with her...ha ha
the  amazon brand  if  half the price  of  the  &#34;big guys&#34; .. works  awesome  .. I have  a jeep  that  never  has  a top on it ..  on those cold  days  these  things  make  a BIG  difference
I've been using this since Dec 2012.Pros:Once it heats up it's nice.Cons:It takes a long time to get warm.It doesn't seem to heat evenlyI'll edit this post if it ever dies with the date it died on. I've read some other reviews that it dies fast.
I have been using this heated seat cushion all winter.I does what you expect, gets warm quickly.What I really like about this beside the warmth is the thin design.My bucket seats are high enough without adding a fat seat cushion.Its thin enough to keep me at the the right height unlike some others I have tried.Just don't leave it plugged in, it has a draining effect on you battery.I would recommend this to family and friends.
But then after about 4 months of use, it just completed stopped working.  So I would definitely not buy again.
Bought this for my elderly Mom who still drives and lives in northern Wisconsin. She is absolutely in love with it. I am by far her best kid
I have high back leather bucket seats in my 1999 expedition and this cushion will not stay where it should. The seat is fine but the back will not stay in place when you are getting in and sitting down&#8230; it slides all the way down to the seat cushion. After you sit you have to lift yourself up&#8230; because you&#8217;re now sitting on the back potion that just slid down&#8230; then reach behind and lift it back up. That&#8217;s not easy to do and you shouldn&#8217;t have to do it in the first place. The elastic straps for the back are pretty useless&#8230; even on other brands&#8230; and the only way I can see to keep it in place is to have a cloth seat that you could put some furniture screws into it and attach it directly to the seat back&#8230; which I&#8217;m not inclined to do on leather. I also don&#8217;t like where the off switch is located because it falls between the seat and center console. Since I have to use an outlet that stays on even when the ignition is off it&#8217;s easy to forget this is on&#8230; and will stay on. I would have much preferred an off switch at the plug end&#8230; but that&#8217;s just me. I have a back problem so the lifting and reaching behind me every time I get into the vehicle is enough to drop this to 3-stars but it would easily be 5-stars if I had cloth seats.
My first was a quite expensive unit designed specifically for the Gill Brand batteries in my aircraft (Almost $200 for that one!). The concept and function of these units is like no others on the market!  The people from BM went to the battery manufacturers to get details, data, and to work with them to achieve the best maintenance chargers offered on the market today.  They are NOT cheap, and they are NOT cheaply made either.  These high quality units should last for a very long time, and will do what no other simple charger or maintainer will do, in that they specifically modify what they do by temperature and battery condition..... even to a desulfation operation.  To achieve the longest battery life possible, and especially so if you have a unit of some type with an expensive battery that must sit idle for longer periods of time between uses, this is the best you can get.  (Note:  This Is Not a quick charge unit by any stretch of the imagination.  It has a max. out put of 4 amps.... if that..... but it is not designed to do that either.  It does what it is designed to do VERY well.)Buy with confidence, and enjoy!
I bought three of these to hook up to my tractor, ATV, and zero turn mower during the winter months. A lot cheaper than having to replace batteries. Well worth the money. And, worth it to get the better model with more features.
I studied the specifications of many battery chargers and reviewed their customer feedback on amazon.com before I chose the BatteryMINDer 2012 charger.Positives :- Temperature compensated charging to prevent over- and undercharging by using a temperature sensor- Shows actual state of charging (soft start, constant current, constant voltage, float)- High frequency charging pulses (instead of regular current charging) to reduce battery sulphation- Can be connected to any AC power source between 110 and 240 V- Long charging cables to locate battery charger away from batteryThe BatteryMINDer 2012 has lights to indicate a weak battery or bad cell which are activated depending on the battery voltage at the end of a 10 min. battery test (battery at rest). This battery test is first done at the completion of the constant voltage charging stage, and then every 12 hours while in float stage.My experience is that this battery test will NOT detect a battery that has been charged and passed the battery test, but then fails to start the engine the next time, i.e. that fails to hold charge. I am guessing that a longer battery test(at least one hour) might catch batteries that charge up okay, but fail to hold charge. Other battery smart chargers (e.g. CTEK) also have very short test periods, so will probably not catch such batteries either.The other minor disadvantage is that the BatteryMINDer 2012 has a maximum current of only 2 amps, so charging a battery  that is significantly discharged will take some time.
This is the third BatteryMINDer I have purchased.  The first was the aviation version to keep my aircraft battery peaked due to less frequent flying.  The second has been used in a more utility capacity to service batteries for boats, jet ski's, garden tractors, and auto's.  It has performed well by recovering and maintaining batteries that would otherwise be lost or difficult to revive.  This latest version does not seem to have the size and heft of the previous chargers, but when I used it the result was the same.  I charged a battery in one of my cars that has been sitting for two to three months with no use.  It took 24 to 48 hours before it brought it up to normal levels, and I left it attached for several days.  I have to believe it conditioned the battery back to a very serviceable level.  It is not a fast recovery charger, but if the advertised capabilities of the charger are accurate it will lengthen the life of my batteries.
I bought this LED pack specifically because of the AGT brand.  What arrived are generic LED's in a single pack NOT the 2 per AGT bag (see photo).  Yes, sure the bulbs work and they do what I wanted and they are as technically described (10x 194 168 2825 5-SMD White High Power LED Car Lights Bulb), but they aren't AGT..."10 x Wedge Type Bulbs by AGT packaged 2 per plastic bag (AGT Brand LED bulbs are known for using superior SMD bulbs that perform and last 2x longer than competitor LED bulbs) Be aware of sellers selling NON-AGT brand bulbs. There are cheaper modules on the market they may substitute. AGT bulbs never ship from China."Hmmm - SURE!Note that you will find these are not a tight fit in the holder like the original incandescent bulb and you need to try various bulbs until you get a reasonable fit.  Time will tell how long these cheap presumably Chinese bulbs last.Unfortunately, Amazon seems to be using more and more untrustworthy sources.
These LEDs work wonderfully! I give them 4 stars for the following reasons:Pros:Bright, "white" color (far brighter than standard bulbs) - Looks like daylight in the carExcellent priceLights, when tested, use far less draw (wattage) than factory bulbsPERFECT for dome/courtesy light replacement! You want a light you can actually read a map with? Go LED(Not recommended) Left dome/courtesy lights on over night and car started perfectly in the morning. Go LED!Cons:Do not fit all "factory" applications (lamp diameter is larger than some bulb housing "holes")LED's seem to "stay on" though VERY dimly (and with no noticeable power draw...won't kill your battery)Only really work in clear-lense applications. All other applications (red or amber side markers) gave little difference in light, and the light was generally dimmer than factory on my application (2007 Mustang)...and of course, if you intend to use ANY LED replacement bulb for a flasher/blinker application you will need to install a load resistor. If not, you will likely receive one of the following problems: 1) hyper-flash (flashes EXTREMELY fast) 2) No flash at all (especially newer vehicles) 3) "Lamp Out" indicator on dash (especially in newer vehicles).I will provide video at a later date.
nice little 194 LED bulbs.  white light.  These bulbs do have a polarity bias so if they don't work remove the bulb and rotate it 180 degrees and plug it back in.  should fix the problem.  they are just what I needed for my 72 AMC Javelin dash lights.
These lights are quite bright and they have been working just fine in my 2013 Prius. I have been able to replace almost 10 of the standard light bulbs in the car with these and they are functioning for almost 60 days now with no problem. I will come back to update this review. I have to mention though that these are NOT original AGT lights... That is the only reason I give them 4 stars. The seller is very good and cooperative and helps out quite a bit when you run into problems. Overall I would say a very good buy.
One of the bulbs out of the bunch had a single LED on it that wasn't lighting up. That is ok however because they actually sent me 11 bulbs instead of 10.  I replaced all the bulbs of this type on my truck with these, they are sufficiently bright, but not exceptionally bright.  Really can't beat it for the price I guess.
Very nice LED bulb and brighter than the original.  You may need to shave the plastic edges of the mounting tab to get it in the socket.  Also you need to be sure the fine wires on the mounting tab are in the proper position when you plug the bulb in.  Once installed they work great and the above issues should not give any future problems.  I will buy more.
Not even sure if these are the AGT (nothing anywhere on the packaging (from China) say so. These are not as bright as the incandescent but i still like them
5-SMD white LEDs for 194/168 bulbsThese work just like any other 5-SMD (5-chip) LEDs designed for 12V applications. The 10-pack was a great price. The major caveat is that you need to be sure your housing has enough room for this LED because it is about 1/8" longer than an actual 194 or 168 bulb.Some people notice that the LED stays dimly lit when the car is off (or the lamp is turned off). This is largely dependent on the electrical system of your car. My late model Ford does this, but my older Ford and later model Chevrolet do not exhibit this condition. And even when it is dimly lit, it is drawing microamps of current and is not a whole lot to discharge your battery or generate heat.Don't use these as turn signals because there's not enough resistance to work with traditional flasher modules. You will need a LED-specific flasher module, but most 194/168 bulbs are used as sidemarkers, interior lights, trunk lights, and license plate lights.The color temperature is typical of a white LED, around 6000K or so. It does not look blue, and is more like a really crisp white that is on the verge of becoming blue. It certainly looks legal when used as a license plate light and improves the interior lighting of a car. Most modern cars actually already have LED interior and exterior lighting, and I'd imagine that in the next 5-10 years, most if not all cars will go this route for power savings and cost savings. It is far easier to manufacture/integrate a surface-mounted LED light versus an incandescent bulb and fixture, not to mention reductions in maintenance without the need to replace bulbs all around the car. Although, if those LEDs do fail, it be expensive to replace the entire lamp!Overall: 5/5 stars, very affordable and easy to upgrade your sidemarkers and other 194/168 bulbs. Just be aware it may not fit a tight lamp compartment because it is about 1/8" longer than a 194/168 bulb.
Love them as they do bright up the display in the car.  Would recommend them for your car lighting needs
So I'm not the most gentle human on the planet and I can accept this and so can these little buggers. I have map lights that 3 year olds would have trouble getting their little fingers into. I was cramming them in there as my arms would spasm and I would curse the engineer that designed these tiny little openings. I would push on these hard only to find out I had them in backwards and if you get any LED just know you will generally put them in backwards the first time, it's annoying. Either way I man handled these things hard and it's been in for a long time and they all work like a charm.
This bulb does not emit the light I was hoping for. I suppose if I had more experience with LED I could have picked a better bulb.
This is german engineering at its finest.  The light is very bright!!!  It's perfect bright clean white look.  No hint of blue.  Very bright!!! Blinding!!
The lights took a long time to arrive but it was expected. Put the lights in 3 trucks.  2010 sequioa - inside lights; 2004 tacoma - parking lights; 97 4runner - parking lights.  I like the look in the interior of the sequioa. light is 180 out from the factory lights.  the factory lights really look yellow compared to the white light from these LED's.  Not every light worked the first time. You also need to try the bulb both ways before tossing it out as not working. Biggest problem here was getting the covers off and bulbs out in the Sequioa.
3/5 Stars because you get what you pay for out of these... but highly recommended, understanding their downfalls.Pros:*Fitment of the bulbs into the automotive socket was a little tight, which I prefer.*Leads are wrapped fully around terminals, meaning you don't have to re-bend +/- terminals if your socket doesnt match.*Bulbs are just as bright (if not marginally brighter) then OE incandescents.*Instant response to voltage, unlike the delay experienced with OE bulbs.Cons:*terrible packaging (loose in small manila envelope shipped from china)*Quality Control is on par with china crap standards, several LED assemblies were not fully socketed to the base, (easy fix, just apply light pressure to snug them in)**Note: as with most LEDs, if the bulb doesnt light when first installed, try installing it the other way around, as LEDs require positive and negative leads to be correct in order for them to work.
Replaced all the interior lights on a 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee.  This 10 pack allowed me to replace the two lamps in the rear lift gate, two lamps in rear above the grab bar, two lamps in the front overhead console, two lamps below the dash in the foot well, one lamp in the glove box, and one lamp to disassemble for the map lights.  Unfortunately, with this particular vehicle, the map lights are not bulbs that can be replaced.  They are already LED lights, but they are warm 2,700 kelvin lights and these are 6,000 or 7,000 kelvin (bright white).  You have to cut off the old map lights, and re-solder the individual LEDs from this kit back onto the ribbon cable for them to match.  This isn't a shortcoming of this product, but rather my particular vehicle.  These are 5 star all the way.
Use these everywhere. Any 194 will fit perfectly as a replacement. They are polarized so if it doesn't work flip it around.  I have them in my truck and my tractor. In the cold or heat they work fine
I replaced the license plate and running light bulbs in my F-350 with these, all the interior lights in my wifes Lincoln MKS, and several lights in my camper.  These are brighter (and obviously whiter), use less power, and run much cooler than the original 194 bulbs.  I highly recommend them.
I used to crimp little ends on to wires and hook them to the relay and wrap them with electrical tape... VERY time consuming and almost always failed in one way or another. I've replace all that crap with these... idk why I never did this in the first place!
I gave this four stars because of the small wires, i used this with the Absolute RLS125 12-VCD Automotive Relay SPDT 30/40A, i setup my horns with this, a horn is not something that is used at constant therefore i took the chance to use this socket, but had it been fog lamps i would not have taken the chance i would have used heavy duty push clips and wired direct to the relay, seems very flimsy, but i am not an expert wire sizer either
Makes my relay install a heck of a lot cleaner & professional looking, get some shrink wrap to seal up all the wires!
Great socket and wires that fit relays snuggly, BUT mine did not have interlocking slides to connect several together. Still they make install much easier, I would recommend these.
I just wish the various relays & connectors for relays used a consistent colour code layout. But that is not a negative comment on this specific component - it's fine.
if you're adding a new relay, this is the perfect wiring harness for it. Originally I was going to use terminals and solder them, but this made the job so much easier. wire is good quality and connectors fit real tight for good contact
Nothing special, it is what it is. I would recommend it if this is what you need. Quality product with good packaging.
This is a really great product because it allows clean installation of the relay using the connected wires. If  relay ever goes bad, just replace it with a new....plug and pay.
Bought this as a gift for my wife on her new Impreza. It looks great, two upper hole mounts which is great. The bottom is a bit thick obviously, you'll need to make sure you place your state/county tags higher up then usual so they're easily readable. Or just throw this on the front plate. Seems to be sturdy though, has stood up about 6 months, 15k miles, and a pretty rough winter without any issue.
It looks good "out of the package", but how will it look in a year of two ... We shall see in a year or two !
Great way to express yourself if you are a Whovian. It gets the point across. Not much else to say about that. Although I did run out of gas once and if I was in the TARDIS I definitely wouldn't have needed to fuel up. Since it runs on the power of a Sun. Bigger on the inside technology and all that.
I bought this for my little sister's car. She loves it. She is a big doctor who fan. She would recommend this just as I would recommend this to others.
Bought this for my girlfriend's crappy and old honda accord haha she loves it so I highly recommend for other nerds.
I mean for $5 this thing is perfect to keep in the proverbial battery box.  And remember - it tests "button"/hearing aid batteries as well.  /hint:  If you want a handful of button batteries, disassemble a run of the mill 9-volt - there's usually about 6 of them in there for $3, instead of $10/ea in single packages.  /unhint
Some devices seem to stop working but with the batteries having lots of charge left.  Kid's toys in particular.  So instead of having to test them in a flashlight and try to eyeball if the brightness means lots of power left, it is easier to use this.  I then save ok batteries for tv remotes, my computer mouse, clocks and other things that can last quite a while even with partially depleted batteries.  I put some &#34;dead&#34; batteries in my computer mouse and they lasted probably 3/4 of what a fresh set lasts.  Not bad considering they were going to be thrown away if I hadn't checked them.I've used in on AA, AAA, and button batteries and it has worked fine.
The feel is cheap but it helped me feed out batteries that I thought were on their last legs. Biggest grip so far is the metal strip on both ends of there the battery gets inserted should have been all metal rather two little strips. Some sort on indent where the battery goes would have been nice so the battery stayed put when taking a measurement. At first I expected more from Amprobe but then I remembered the last amp clamp from them and it was also quite cheap feeling. For 8 bucks it's fine.
I wanted an inexpensive way to check batteries and this fits the bill.  I have a multimeter, but it's necessary to check batteries under load.  I was concerned when this tester arrived, as it's obviously cheap.  But cheap is fine if it works, and this product works great.
I was sad my 3.7 volt batteries can't be tested with this and am wondering what I need to test my rechargeable batteries to see whether they are storing the max energy any longer  . Still learning how to do the button cells . However I did do a jar full of alkaline AAA and AA plus some C , D and 9 volt  and threw out some batteries and kept some others I was going to toss them all and start over . My charger basically does the same thing but is not as friendly. I really was hoping to find how much capacity my batteries had and whether that was full or they showing they no longer took  a full charge anymore . I do not believe there is anyways to do that with this device after looking through the confusing notes that came with it . I guess I need a little more education on this topic .  I took off one star because there is no way to measure full capacity and adjust the load test or see a actual voltage reading . It will come in handy to clean out 20 years of accumulated batteries that often were retired after a brief use for a rechargeable and then mixed in with expired ones in a jar . I used to recharge my alkalines when that was all you could do but it is so messy I just toss them appropriately now . That was the good thing about this I was able to go very rapidly through the accumulation of 20 years and then send the dead ones on their way to the proper waste disposal station in my County for batteries . They ask they no longer be put in trash because their so toxic . I do not believe their is a law but it is the right thing to do . Here they dispose of them along with medical waste like sharp's at our Counties yard by appointment to drop off . No charge .Ended up buying a $2 ohm meter from harbor freight and using it for the button cells and larger stuff but no load test unless I do it in the device when powered on . I guess that works ? I am not very handy with electrical , never have been .
We all know the drill.  Something stops working or doesn't seem to work right so we take the batteries out, put them back in in a different order, blow out the thing, and then go off to find &#34;new&#34; batteries.  We open the battery drawer, basket, or whatever.  There is a mix of batteries that came from different things.  Maybe we keep the batteries we just took out because maybe they'll work find in something else that doesn't need &#34;as fresh of a battery&#34;.  Pretty soon you have a mess of batteries and you have to try multiple combinations to find some that work and we barely ever throw them out.Please tell me that does not all just happen to me and my family.  If it does, then enjoy your laugh.With this little gadget I take the guess work out of my battery drawer and the possibility that something needs a new battery.  This tests everything from the watch type batteries that my 3D glasses for the TV use to the 9V in the smoke detector, to the AA, AAA, C & Ds that go in to the Nerf guns or whatever else you happen to kill batteries with.I really like this cheap simple little thing and regret that I wasted so long to break down and buy it.  Now I'm off to the battery drawer to start the culling of the dead batteries, some have been with me for a long time, in and out of many devices but their time has come to leave the drawer and go off to the dump.
Good little battery tester for the money, comes in handy when your not sure if its the battery or the item that's not working.
I was going for the HK version product that you can find here at Amazon as well but this has Prime shipping.The item is very light so you get the &#34;cheap&#34; look when holding it but it does what it promises: Checking the battery status on a easy to read gauge. No more hitting the remote control or guessing wich battery is almost dead.Really worth the price for not having to buy batteries without needing to (imho they are expensive).
I have a large collection of rechargable and non rechargable batteries that I use for different purposes. Sometimes it is not very easy to distinguish the flat ones from the full ones and this small handy item does a great job for this purpose. I had spared more than 15 old batteries for recycling assuming they were flat and half of them turned up to have good level of charge in them. I may use them for clocks or other less demanding stuff. This is a very good item that can be used to test all common battery types and would eventually save one good amount of money. I hope it lasts.UPDATE after 1 week: I have concerns on the accuracy of the reading for button batteries. I bought a brand new set of button batteries (CR1616) for my watch and just out of curiosity tested one with this tool. First it is very difficult to get it in the place and second after the indicator needle wandered up and down a little while it showed  the 'replace' area. Which I believe is totally wrong. Then I tested it with two other brand new button batteries from different types (LR44 and CR2032)The reading with LR44 was consistent and accurate but CR2032 behaved somewhat similar to CR1616 (the needle jumped up and down then decreased back to 'replace battery area') I think the circuit in some button batteries is not strong enough for this device. For that case, I think if you see the needle at least once going up then assume that the battery is ok, do not expect it to stabilize in the green zone.Despite this flaw about button batteries, I still rate this item 5 stars due to its value for price rate and accuracy in major battery types. If you are not a heavy button battery user, then you won't regret this purchase.
I always need to test batteries, and this one works great.  I'm glad it even test button batteries.  It was delivered on time and it was well packaged.  I may by an extra one for keeping another one in another much needed handy spot.
Great battery tester.Has easy to read meter.I went through a pile of old batteries and found a bunch that were still good.It takes a little doing to get the battery in the right position, not for any one with a hand handicap hence the 4 stars.Great stocking stuffer!
These are well made. I got two to use around. These look like they will last? Just takes time.  SW
I use this to power my led wheel well lights. very easy to use, I recommend this product to everyone
Good quality, straight-forward product.  I bought this to use with the Roscoe backup camera I installed in the back of my travel trailer (I keep it on and use the camera monitor as a rear view mirror).  Since I only use the camera when I'm towing the trailer, I wanted a quick disconnect/portable arrangement rather than hard wiring the power connections to my vehicle.  This simplified the wiring and works exactly as I had intended.
Works great, I used this for an LEDGlow kit in my car, no need to hotwire it into any fuses.I like this because it makes it easy for people who don't know too much about cars.
Flimsy feel.  Thin gauge wires and they are NOT marked plus/minus at the terminals which is annoying.  Product works for use of LED lighting so thicker wires not needed in this case.
Good solid unit, IT IS a light duty adapter so don't use for more than fuse size that came with it.
I went to measure the items, but the installation was so easy I installed them in about one hours time.
These jacks work great! I mounted four of them on my 26 foot travel trailer and they do the job. I used the supplied bolts and may weld them on later but for now they do the job!
Bought these scissor jacks to add more stabilized support to our 5th wheel trailer.  I installed one Jack to the frame on each side of the trailer to stabilize the slide on each side. This installation made our trailer rock solid therefore l highly recommend these jacks.
Great item, smooth operating, and easily installed. Great big size and super strong that supported lots of family traffic and my camper did not budge or loose stabiltiy.
These jacks are really great and very sturdy...they come pavkaged good and had all the parts ..you can fasten to your trailer or leave them off to move them around..great product for the price
Had to attach some cross bracing which was no picnic.  The mounting plates are much larger than any frame material on the RV. These newer RVs have smaller framing to make them lighter.  Overall the Jacks are well made, strong and smooth.  The swivel on the crank handle is a nice touch.  If I order a second set of these, i will take one crank handle and cut the end off to chuck into a cordless drill and keep the other as a manual backup. Would have been 5 stars except for the mounting plate size.
These are by far improved over the jacks that came with the trailer, I used the for extra support on the downhill side of where it is setup right now.
These jacks are excellent quality and are heavy duty. I had BAL scissor jacks on my trailer until they broke. I replaced them with the Husky 76862 24&#34; stablising scissor jacks and these jacks were a direct replacement. Each 2 set of jacks came with a nice jack lifting bar and mouting screws.
This jacks fit my trailer perfectly and were shipped as promised. They look great and worked well and hiopefully I will remember to put them up before I move the trailer in the future!
Yup, they do the job, just fine.  Come with attaching hardware but **CAUTION** the recommended size of the drilled hole in your trailer's frame is **TOO BIG**.  Glad I only drilled one hole to the specified size - the self-threading screw provided did not catch tightly.  I undersized the remaining holes and had no troubles. I'd give them 5 stars if the mfr's installation directions were correct.
I purchased a used travel trailer. The stabilizers were damaged on one side. Instead of trying to find a perfect match for the good ones, I replaced all four with these. The first thing I noticed was that these were much larger than I expected and they protruded from the sides of the trailer a little. That is not a big deal, just something to take into account since they could hit against something. Make sure you measure your trailer well before purchasing and installing these. They are much more robust than the original ones that were on the trailer and I have no doubt that they will last many years of continual use.
This scissor jack set was a little longer than I realized, but will keep anyway. There are other uses for which I can utilize it for.  Whether for my trailer as a stabilizer or for aiding me when I need to lift the trailer frame to change a tire.
They were easy to install and worked great to stabilize my trailer. I would recommend these for any trailer they worked great on mine...
The bulb is bright like a sun, it shines smooth silver light much stronger than the stock bulbs. Will see how long will it last.
I installed it in my 2006 PT Cruiser and it works great excellent light very bright light and very good quality I would recommend this particular light to any one who needs to improve the dome light inside their auto
I'm measuring 250mA at 13.4V or about 3.35 watts of power consumed.  They seem to be about 6000K in color temp.  They get warm but not hot, but I have only run for a few minutes at a time.  I ordered from "Super Fast" and didn't notice that it shipped from China.  They beat the delivery estimate but it did take 18 days from the order to the delivery. The adapters are handy.
I love these light sets. I use them with  BA15S, Single Contact Bayonet Base to G4 Socket Adapter for LED - Set of 5 . The T% fitting won't work on anything i plug them into. But the lights themselves give alot of good white light for RV replacement.
First the lights are great for RV replacement however be ready to rewire your light fixtures to make these work, the adapters they come with did not work on my fixtures. I was able to rewire the fixtures to make them work.Also out of 10 that I first bought 3 did not work until I reversed the blk and red wires coming out of the LED then they worked, a little QC issue where they were made. That all being said I just ordered another 3 of them for my exterior lights on the trailer. If you don't mind some basic rewire work these are a great deal. They arrived in about 7 days after ordering them from China.
I got these for lighting in my hobbie room and run them off of a solar charged battery that runs my radio gear.These are really brite and do a great job. After a couple of hours they get a bit warm...but not hot like thebulbs that they replaced. I don't have a long term use to determine longevity , but like what I see so far.
I installed these in my brother's truck. It sits for weeks as it is his spare vehicle and he is not the type to starts it once a week or wire it to a battery tender. After having to jump it because the dome light was left on I had enough. I dont have to jump start it for him anymore and the light plenty bright to find where you dropped your pen.
Replaced the dome light in a '97 Accord with this and it is very bright!! Definitely the brightest SMD pad ive had thus far. I traded in the car and forgot to take it out, but id love to put it in the trunk of my 350Z if it fit in the panel.I received many compliments from passengers on how bright it was and everyone liked it.
Pretty bright and only a slight hint of blue.  It seems that the festoon adapter doesn't work, but not too big of a deal.  I've since tried the 48 LED panel and it is quite a bit brighter, but there are still plenty of uses for this one.  Overall, a nice panel.
I bought several of these and used them in different applications. I've bought a lot of LEDs in the past and these are awesome. They're bright, have the right color spectrum and a good price. I replaced the cab light in my truck car, and back up lights. MUCH brighter than stock and use less electricity.  I used clear silicone glue to keep them in place.
I bought these to use in my RV which as 1156/1141 style bases and I thought these were included in the picture.  Those bases are tiny- perhaps for a dome light?  I bought a 1156 adapter with two wires to connect to these.  The LCDs are bright and white not yellow like the incandescent lights they replace.  Good value for a low price and shipping was reasonable for shipment from China.
I bought eight of them for my rv.  They all work fine.  I am going to order some more.  They have tremendously dropped the amperage discharge on my rv batteries and are brighter than the original incandescent bulbs.  Some of them I had to wiggle the wires to get them to work but so far so good.
If this will fit in your interior light fixture - and you want a much brighter light - look no further.
I guess for how cheap it is it's nice. However... it's not immensely bright for how many LEDs it has and how much space it takes up. I might need to buy a second one and use a dremel to cut out some space to stick another panel in.One Oracle Lighting 31MM6LSMDW (31mm festoon) LED bulb is almost as bright as this, it's more expensive but also likely higher quality. If you could manage it, I'd find some way to install 2 festoon bulbs into one socket(soldering skills maybe?) and get a pair of Oracle Lighting 31MM6LSMDW LEDs, they're $10 a pair but VERY bright.
I installed these in my 5th wheel RV and they worked great.  I went in at the end of the summer and turned them on, all of them are blinking and some are completely off.  The circuit boards cannot handle summer temperatures in a hot RV.  Do not buy for RV usages unless you will only be in cooler climates.
I love this product its super bright comes with a bit of sticky paper on the back that you can put on the inside of your car and would go with light
I started with one unit to give it a try in our travel trailer. They came quickly from BestDealUSA. The light is the really "white" light but it is fine. I didn't bother looking at the color of the wires. If the light didn't come on I just reversed the connection. They mount easily on the metal heat shield in our fixtures. It isn't quite as bright as a single 921 bulb (I had removed one of the bulbs from the double fixtures to reduce electric needs when on battery) so I ordered 5 more to use in both sides of the double fixtures.  Then I ordered 4 more to use in more fixtures. One of these required some jiggling to get it to come on and 3 of the 36 LED's don't work. Have driven about 100 miles on bumpy roads with these in place and they are working fine. New Jersey state parks don't have any hookups for camping so we do a lot of "dry" camping - the battery life is certainly extended with these LED's rather than incandescent bulbs. At this time I recommend them - time will tell if they continue to work so well.  UPDATE: When I told BestDealUSA about the "bad" light they immediately sent me a replacement. You can't beat that.  UPDATE March 2014:  Looks like the units now being sold aren't the same one's I got.  Also note that the price has doubled. After two seasons of use I have had no heat problems even when left on for several hours at a time. Also no problem with any non-working LED's except as noted above. Trailer has travelled over 3000 miles so vibration doesn't seem to a problem either.  Just note this review covers only the product I received in 2012 even though the description is the same, current reviews would indicate a different product than I received.
This is an awsome light.  It dosn't fit the socket in my lights but I hard wire it with crimp connectors and it's fine.  The sticky tape on the back is really good, you won't be able to pull it off if you get it on wrong the first time.  They are really bright, I did notice there is a little varriance in the color of the light between a couple of them.  I ordered 2 just to see if I could use them and after receiving them I orders 6 more to finish out the inside of the camper.  The first batch came from Oklahoma City and too 3 days, when I ordered the second time they came from China, I thought it would be a while before I saw these but 5 days later they were in my mail box.  Really, 5 days, sat till wed, from China are you kidding me and that was standard free shipping.  Gonna order some more just to have on hand in case I have to fit out some other camper or boat or whatever, at this price I don't expect them to be available too long.
Works great! I installed it in my subaru impreza hatchback and it lights up my whole interior. Much brighter than my standard oem bulb. Great buy
These lights are very bright and fit a variety of different sockets.  I've used one for a dome light in my truck, one over the stove in my camper, and one under the stairs in my camper.  They come with double back tape on the back to mount.  All three of the units I've used have worked 100%, every LED, no flickering.
I installed 4 of these (two packages) in less than 15 minutes, right over the rail caps I installed.  They are pretty heavy duty and fit in with out an issue.  they snap up and down very well and didn't budge at all when a ratchet strap was sinched down to its limit.  Great product and would recommend to anyone with a pickup truck and needs additional tie-downs.
Although the package doesn't mention the Toyota Tundra and some reviewers said it wouldn't fit, they went right on my 2007 Tundra.
These are made in China, like too many things sold here now but for the price, they're acceptible. When the ring is retracted into the base, they made rattle when driving but I have noticed it yet, just that they're fairly loose. Again, for the price, they will serve their function, although I wouldn't put a great deal of stress on them.
I installed 4 of these on my 1996 Chevy K1500. Two work well but the other two are difficult to pull up. I usually need to use a screw driver.
These things are great.  Take literally 15 seconds each to install, are strong and I like that they retract when not in use.  Just follow the directions and be sure not to over tighten the locking screws.
These were very easy to install. They seem like they will do the job although I wouldn't go cranking down with a rope on them. I'm very satisfied with this product.
Purchased these (as well as many other items) through Amazon as the prices are very had to beat on other sites. I replace a set of crome bed locks with these as I did not like their look (sticking up all the time). The locks were good and I will try to mount to my trailer for more tie down space.These tie downs were a snap to install and have great look in use with the bed rail protector. The locks are good and strong. Glad I got these and would recommend to anyone looking for a good product that is very functional.
I haven't really stressed the load capacity of the rings yet though they seem sturdy. I was having trouble finding hooks that would sit flush when not in use and weren't all chrome. These fit the bill perfectly and have a good snap up feeling to them.Be aware they look different from the default picture (just the logo) but are accurately depicted in the retail packaging and the customer images.
If you use your truck to haul stuff these are great tie down.  10 minute install for all four.  Heavy duty I have torqued a lot of large loads and never had a problem.
***UPDATED 09/03/2013***I just bought a bed rail kit for my truck and needed to remove these from the stake holes to install the rails.  1 cracked the plastic immediately as I pressed down on the screws.  Of the 8 screws I attempted to remove, 7 stripped the heads and 1 actually had backed itself out before I even got to it.  I ended up cracking the plastic off of them in order to get them out.  The aluminum block that locks the tie downs in place had corroded and locked the screws in the block.  I liked them when they were in there but this just ruined it for me.  There's ~$50 just gone.*************************Initial impressions:Very satisfied with this product. I am using them on an '05 dodge 2500. These kind of jingle a little when driving etc but I'm not annoyed by it at all.  My swingcase tool box makes far more noise.  They seem durable and well made.  Under loads they will shift in the stake holes so they're not lined up properly.  No biggie, just move them back.
These are quality pieces that work as designed. Instructions are crap. Do yourself a favor and just remove the hold down screws completely, insert into the opening, pull up on the ring and secure the screws. Look dealer installed and fill the rail opening nicely.
Perfect pack for doing a headlight restoration.  i used 1500/2000/3000 then compound and polish to get a set of severely neglected headlights.  I also used the 2000 grit for wet sanding a set of taillights after I sprayed them with VHT Nite Shades.
The assorted grades are exactly what I need. As a DIY individual working on small project is a perfect value with all the different grade you ever need.
1 1000 1 1500 2 2000 1 2500 its perfect i bought three of these packages they were add on items for 4.88 each it allows me to wetsand a scratch using all the steps it is really usefull to have a pack or two of these laying around. I also wetsand using a meguaris sanding pad its made of foam and really contours to anything that your sanding instead of using a small piece of wood like i use to use
It's good sandpaper. I like how it can be used wet or dry. Worked well to polish the metal on my wheels.
The sandpaper was cut right through the grit number so half of each number was missing, so I had to feel the sheets to know the right grit.  Huh? Other than that, the paper is good stuff.
Amazing sandpaper... it has a paper type backing and some sort of grey grit on the other side... I left some soaking for days and it never disintegrated. Plus there was more than a few grits to choose from. It sanded all my stuff, wet or dry. It is pretty much just what the packaging says it is.
DESCRIPTION> An assortment of fine-grit sandpaper> 5 sheets, each 3 2/3" x 9"> 4 finess grits:  1 1000 grit, 1 1500 grit, 2 2000 grit, and 1 2500 grit> "wet or dry".  Probably best used wet, under a stream of water, or at least cleaned in a bucket of water frequently---an old toothbrush works wellCAUTION> The entire selection consists of fine grits, intended to "finish" new automotive paint.> If you've used any filler, or several heavy layers of primer (to fill a scratch, etc.)  you will also need some medium grits (e.g., 200, 500) to get the surface level, before you begin "polishing" with these fine grits.> Be sure the primer (and any filler) is absolutely dry before sanding.
If u like a shiny vehicle this Synthetic X Press Spay Wax is for you. It's really easy to put on, easier to take off, and gives your vehicle an awesome shine.
I have not tried to product as of yet but have seen many reviews so I am completely looking forward to using it on my cars. I will let ya know how it turns out!...Product arrived as expected without any problems
I spray this on after I quick detail my car.After you wipe off the spray, touch your paint about an hour later and it is silky smooth.The spray wax actually lasts too.. I haven't use traditional wax in a while now. This makes it too easy.
This works well on most of my cars.You cant use it in the sun or on hot surfaces.It`s a little hard to work with on black.It works good on the grays,silvers,blues,and reds in my experience.
This is a great product for the auto owner that likes to take good care of their vehicle and keep good protection.  It is easy to apply and adds a nice shine, bead and protection.
I have these on my 2008 Toyota Matrix. After 2 years they are still working good and do not need replaced yet. For the money they are great. Was easy to install and seem like will last at least another year before needing replaced. When is time I will replace with the same thing!
Bought these for my Evolution, to replace the stock wipers. They installed in less then a minute, and have for nearly a year provided streak free wiping throughout rain, snow, and hail. They work well at high speeds, never miss a beat. I'm very happy with the unilateral design applying even pressure across the windshield - definitely a good design. I have the Latitudes on my other car and they started to split after about 6 months, I'll most likely be replacing with these.
What an improvement over the stock blade.  I used this on the passenger side of my Prius.  Took all of 20 seconds to install and the blade leaves no streaks or spots.  The cover over the attachment point is a nice touch. Who could ask for more.
So far I'm loving the Bosch ICON 18A. It fits my 2005 Toyota Prius great; it gives a little bit more coverage than the stock passenger claw that came with my vehicle.The ICON size letter suffix refers to the manufactured curvature of the blade, which provides for effective surface contact, so check Bosch for proper fit with your vehicle.I bought the previous generation 426A (because it was available) for my driver side, so I'll be able to see, and will report back over time, whether the upgraded model is anything more than just a packaging change. I tested my blades last night, and they gave me a wonderfully streak-free wipe from tip to tip. These things are very nice.I replaced my rear wiper rubber this year as well, so with it being new I look back at it and see the disadvantage of my old claw-style wiper, which has four pressure points at the tips that wipe more clear than along the rest of the blade. The Bosch blades are clearly superior.These cost more, but they are awesome, and they look good too. I've uploaded a photo, though I try not to let you see my cracked windshield in it.I will remember to come back next season to report how well they hold up. So far, I highly recommend these Bosch ICON blades.
This specific 18 inch wiper blade went on our 2003 Toyota Matrix, passenger side.This wiper does not come with any adapters. It is specifically for cars with "u" type hook connections. Though you might be able to fudge on size a little (I used the 22 inchBosch 22A ICON Wiper Bladeon my driver's side which recommended a 21 inch blade with no problems) but you cannot fudge on connectors. Please make sure that this specific wiper blade is certified for your vehicle.The most difficulty I had was removing my old wipers because I had no instructions for that. Once removed, this Bosch blade installed, literally, in seconds. It does come with rather simple directions for installation, and has a snap down protector where the hook is inserted into the arm connection.Anyway, not much to say about a wiper blade if it works and this works fine. It arrived in time to be used on a normal sleet and snowy winter day in the Midwest of the United States. The moisture was wiped away quickly with no streaking. Durability questions are always an issue with any product, and I typically revisit my reviews if there are any abnormal issues there. I expect at least 1 year out of my blades, and usually I get 2 or 3 years.An easy 5 stars for a nice looking piece of equipment that installs easily and (so far) wipes away sleet and snow with no streaking.Note: Since I also acquired theBosch 22A ICON Wiper Bladefor the driver's side of my 2003 Toyota Matrix (21 inches is the exact size recommended for the driver's side of my car) the review for that is pretty much identical to this one.
These outlast any other wipers 2 to 1 minimum-and are the easiest to install of any wiper blade. I routinely move these from a primary vehicle to one that is used less often-and they are still good.
I'm really impressed with the Bosch ICON Wiper Blades.  They work great and were very easy to install.  There is no streaking or squeaking with these blades.  I've used them in both rain and snow and they work perfectly.  I like how these blades have the pre-installed weather shield connector system that helps prevent ice build up.  It definitely does the job.  These blades seem like a very durable, high quality item and I would recommend them to anybody.  Just be sure to use the nifty little part finder at the top of the product page to see which blades will fit your specific vehicle.
I have to admit, while installing this one was very easy (the instructions were clear), I had a bit of trouble figuring out how to get the older standard ones off. Fortunately, my daughter assisted. These are sturdy, and look much nicer than the ones we had. It snowed the day after we installed them on my car, and they worked well.I like the fact that these are plastic and are less likely to scratch the windows.My only concern, since these are still new is whether they will live up to the difference in price. We live in an area with both very high and very low temperatures, so only time will tell.
I have been using wipers from a well known French brand for years, so I decided to make a change. These work just as well, if not better.  Fitting them is very easy, a &#60;5 minute task :-)
First of all, I replaced some good rain-x wipers with these and these wipers work great. They wipe well and I installed a full set in under 5 minutes. Wow.I wouldn't want to do it on the side of the road in a thunderstorm, but you could. As long as the old wipers come off clean, these install super fast. My only delay was my old wiper, it took some wiggling to get off, but after they were removed, these installed in under 30 seconds. Super duper muper easy. Truly amazing.The good thing too is that these will come off just as easy as they were put on. :)Great wipers and easy to install. What more do you want?
First, I am not used to spending $16 for one windshield wiper, but more like $10 for a pair at Walmart.  Having said that, I can honestly say these Bosch wipers may be worth the money.  They are curved to place consistent pressure across the entire blade.  They also have an air dam on one side to place pressure on the blade when traveling at high speed.  They have a hard plastic housing which covers the mounting mechanism, which flips open for mounting.  They mount like any other wiper hooking into that "U" shaped end of the wiper arm, without any additional plastic adapters, as they are made specifically for the model car you own.I did get to try them out in the rain twice and they really do work well, leaving my window streak free (better than my Walmart ones).  Time will tell how well they hold up.  I will update this review in a month or so.
Bosch Icon wiper blade seems to be the best wiper blade I have purchased so far, clean sweep every time, quiet operation too.
Purchased the Bosch ICON 20A and 22A. These wipers will fit the 2006 BMW 325Ci Convertible (E46).Note: For other 2006 3 series BMW owners (2006 was a transition year for the 3 series, some were the old E46 design while the sedans carried over to the newer E90 design, the ICON's will fit the 2006 E46 NOT SURE if these fit the 2006 E90 body design - very good replacement over the OEM Bosch Wipers, however the ICON does not come with the little wind deflector found on the stock wipers (drivers side) (though the sleeker design of the ICON negates the need for the little wind deflector.Pro's:- Pricing is similar to Bosch OEM- Personally think these ICON's are sleeker looking over OEM, and overall better looking-thus less wind resistance,- Initial impression is these appear to be just as durable as OEM (1 plus year and counting, though car is garaged every evening),- Appear to wipe better than the OEMCon's:Can't think of any
These Bosch Icon Windshield Wiper Blades work great and were very easy to install on my Chrysler Town & County minivan. My car needed these 20A size on the passenger side andBosch 26A ICON Wiper Blade - 26", Pack of 1on the driver side, which I confirmed using the Amazon "Find Parts" tool that shows up at the top of most automotive accessory pages.These blades looked flimsy compared to the ones it replaced since they do not have the ridged support bracket, but my concerns were groundless as they fit and performed very well, leaving not streaks and not "squeaking". Having never replaced my own wiper blades before, I went to the Bosch site to watch the helpful installation video found at "[...]", you will have to replace the "(dot)"s with "."s since Amazon doesn't allow embedding actual links in reviews.These exceeded my exceptions in both functionality and ease of installation!Highly Recommended!CFH
These are simply awesome wipers.I have the set on a 2001 Chevy Blazer and I could not be more happy with them.They wipe evenly without streaking and never leave any of the mess any other blades I have used tend to do over time.Installation was a snap and should be for even the least mechanically inclined people out there.Both this 20A and the other 20B blade perform the same so there really isn't a difference in the two when it comes to the review.They have held up great for a long while now and I expect a lot more life out of them.I would say these are a great buy.I will update if I feel like they don't last as long as they should, but I really think these blades are quality and will outlast my last set.Thumbs up.
This is the first wiper of this type that I have used (non-hinged frame type) and I have to say that I am impressed.  Usually at highway speeds, my regular wipers start to lift a bit or do not maintain full contact with the windshield, but these low profile wipers keep full contact along the full length, for a clear windshield.  There was no squeak or stutter at any time, even in light rain or when using washer fluid, and they were able to keep up with a full-on heavy rain, which some wipers do not seem to be able to do.  This 20a wiper fits the passenger side of a 2009 Sonata among others (use a 24a for the drivers side of the 2009 Sonata), and works as good or better than any other wiper I have tried so far.  Installation was a snap, just following the directions/diagrams on the back of the package.  I do not live in an area with snow or ice, so I cannot on this wiper in "winter" conditions.
Bought these for a 2008 Hyundai Sonata, almost bought 2 20&#34; wipers because of Amazons fit guide in automotive. It actually takes a 24&#34; for driver and 20&#34; for passenger, glad I checked before buying 2 of these. Overall the wiper seems to work better than oem.
During the last snow storm, my wiper blades were not getting the window clear even though they weren't that old.  So I picked these up when I saw them and I am impressed with them and will stick with this brand in the future.  They are super simple to install, keep the entire window clean with no streaks, and they look good on the window.  I like how simple it is on this site to find out which ones fit your vehicle too.
I have been using the Bosch Icon wiper blades since late last year.  These blades do live up to the marketing in my application. I am in the Nevada desert and blades fail rather rapidly here and these have yet to do so.  The "Beam" technology has proven true to the marketing. The blades stay flat across the windshield, provide a clear dry swath and I have yet to have them stutter. Further, having blades without plastic brackets, hinge mechanisms, means that these blades actually are a snap to install.  The downward pressure of the beam seems sufficient as they have not blown up while wiping and driving at freeway speeds in the rain.These are very quiet, easy to install blades that perform as advertised.Yes, they are expensive, even at Amazon's price, but in the end $35 or $40 dollars for a set is little money when you consider how they last and perform, seeing clearly in inclement weather is priceless really.*This review will be duplicated for the other blade.
These are OK wiper blades, but they will be damaged by small nic's in the windshield.  I am not sure what is better, but these were OK blades.
I previously rated them as a pair(A/B). I find them to be a very good to excellent lon lasting blade.
I have a Kia Borrego SUV, and it is a challenge to get wiper blades that actually do a good job on the large windshield. So far, I have been highly pleased with this set of Bosch ICON wiper blades. They are quiet, and work without streaking. I have used them twice during snow storms, and they have done very well.It was easy to find the correct sizes needed, using the parts finder tool at the top of the Amazon page. My spouse installed these on my vehicle, and he said they were not any harder to install than a standard wiper blade. I am very satisfied with these blades, and will likely purchase them the next time I need a replacement.
This wiper was a bit harder to install than my old one, but it has worked well after several storms - no squeaking, sputtering or streaking.They claim superior wind resistance but I really noticed no difference between this and the old wipers, even at 70mph (in dry weather) and with a 40-60 mph gusting crosswind.They work well, but so did my old ones at less cost.
Easy to install and work well in the snowRecently, just this past month, I purchased a new car (Chevrolet Impala). I'm loving everything about it, except for one small detail. The factory windshield wipers that come with it are worthless. Sure a little rain here and there and they work sufficiently, but put them up against our Minnesota winter storms and they are wimpy. You know your blades are worthless when you get dirt, mud, slush all over your windshield and you debate which will make seeing out worse, trying to peer through it or using your wiper blades with the windshield wiper fluid which will probably just smear everything so badly you can see a thing,As soon as I received the Bosch ICON Wiper Blades, I couldn't get them on the car fast enough. With just a few minutes of work, the old factory wiper blades were history and 2 new quality Bosch blades had taken their place. Right away I noticed the difference. Ice doesn't get jammed into these as easily, and snow and slush are no match for these blades. No more issues with slush being streaked across my windshield as the defroster melts everything. It tightly grips the glass and scrapes everything off the windshield in scoops. You can really tell how well your blades work when you put them up against ice and snow, and these are exceeding my expectations. Love them and I can finally see out my windshield in the snow!
I have used Bosch wiper blades for several years.  I feel that they wipe better and they last longer than standard blades that I have used in the past.  They cost a little more up front, but you get your money back in the added value that they offer.
This is my 3rd brand of bracketless wipers.  I've also tried Valeo and Autotex.  As with all of them, this one installed easily and performs much better than an old, work-out wiper.We've had some rain, snow and frost in the mornings.  This wiper has been doing very well with all of these conditions.  This one also seems to have the tightest quality build of the three.  Overall, little to no streaking, no extra noise or skipping and does well on sub-freezing mornings as well.With bracketless blades, they have an airfoil styling to help keep them against the windshield when driving.  Sometimes, this causes  what seems like a low-pressure zone directly behind the blade which draws water back onto the windshield on the downstroke.  This one seems to do that less than the other brands.Overall, compared to the other brands I'd probably pay a little bit more for these ones based on experience so far, though I haven't had it long enough to compare it long-term.Update 5/2012:  This wiper isn't all that great - it always seems to leave small drops behind it on the windshield and seems to age rapidly.  I wouldn't consider these a "premium" wiper.
The Bosch ICON 22A and 20A fits the 2006 325 Ci Convertible (E46).These Wiper Blades works well if you want to deviate from the stock OEM Bosch Wipers.
I've had the Bosch wiper blade on my driver's side for approximately 2 months.  My car is parked uncovered & outside 24/7.  Over the years, I've used OEM blades, auto part store blades, Silblades & Bosch.Other than a cheapie pair put on by my dealership auto service department, I can see no real difference in durability & "wipability" of any of the blades I've listed above.  They all start out great & then deteriorate over time.  From my experience, they all seem to wear out in about the same number of months & I've never had a wiper blade go through 1/2 a year.This Bosch blade is ok.  It works well out of the carton & is easy to install.  After 2 months, it still does a decent job at getting the rain off of the windshield.  I am starting to see a little streaking, and I still need a scrubber to get bug splats off the windshield.  I have a 6 month old Silblade on my passenger side, and the Bosch wipes better than the old Silblade, but the Bosch hasn't been on the car & exposed to the elements as long.At this point, I'm not impressed enough with the Bosch to say that it warrants a premium price.
ThisBosch 22A ICON Wiper Bladewas installed on my 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer.  Living in Washington, rain is just part of the package.  I'm not complaining as I've lived here all my life, but you do need to be prepared.  Prior to switching to these wipers I had been using theRain-X Latitude 8-In-1 Premium Graphite Coated Wiper Blades.  With only a few dollars difference, I figured the comparison would be worthwhile.Quality seems very good.  The hardware and blades did not feel cheap, which made me hopeful that these would last a good while.Installation was easy; they snapped right in to place.  I just had to make sure that I placed the correct blade on the correct side, as Bosch gives two different parts depending on drivers or passengers side.Performance so far has been excellent.  We have had several downpours and the Bosch blades keep my windows clear with no streaking or sticking.My recommendation is that they are well worth the price, for the value received and when comparing them to the Rain-X blades they come out slightly ahead because of the quality.
I have used a variety of wiper blades but Bosch has always made some of the best wiper blades in my opinion. I have always found them to be reliable and provide a good clean wipe for at least a year of use. I was excited to try out these Bosch ICON blades after seeing the advertisements for them. I have had the chance to try them out for a couple of weeks and get a good idea of how well that they work. We have had a ton of rain in recent weeks and I can tell you that they work perfectly in the rain. They clean the window very nice without any squeaking or sticking to the window. We also had a couple days of snow and ice mixture. They seem to do an equally good job in the snow and ice. Since these wipers are totally covered the ice can't get inside the wiper frame and freeze solid. This is a big plus in my opinion and helps to keep the wipers from being frozen in place. They were very easy to install as well. It took me longer to take them out of the packaging then to put them on my truck. If your wiper arm has the hook on it then it just slides into place and there is a cover that closes. The cover is nice because it would keep the wiper from totally coming off your car in the event that it slides off of the wiper arm. I think most people would really like these wipers and this is the wiper that I will probably continue to use as long as the price is fair.
We just had a really heavy snow and by that I mean 6 inches of very wet heavy snow. I don't like clearing the windshield of my van because it's a full size conversion van and I can't reach the middle of the windshield so the wiper blades have to move that heavy snow off and they did it without any hesitation. I thought sure they'd hit that heavy stuff and slow way down and move it slowly but they moved it with the first swipe and no slow moving like they were stuck. They just wiped it away as if it were just rain water. They did a complete cleaning of the window, tip to tip, with just the right amount of pressure, no streaking or smearing.
The function of this blade is great - it makes for a nice clean windshield.  I was waiting to test this in some snow, but it looks like we wont be getting any this year.  Overall, my impression is very positive.  There are no streaks or smears.  My only complaint is that the attachment point is a bit bulkier than my OEM wipers.  Thus, when in the down (unused) position, the attachment point sticks up and shows visibly at the base of my windshield.  My OEM wipers tucked under the far edge of the hood so as to be less noticeable.  Attachment was very easy.
This specific wiper went on our 2003 Toyota Matrix, driver's side. For starters, my car requires a 21 inch wiper blade (e.g.,Bosch 21A ICON) and this is a 22 inch blade. This still fits fine with absolutely no problems. That's pretty much because at 22 inches there's just an extra 1/2 inch on each end which doesn't seem to make any difference on my car. I'm not recommending you do the same, but just adding that for me being off one size was no problem.Note: This wiper does not come with any adapters. It is specifically for cars with "u" type hook connections. Though you might be able to fudge on size a little (like I did) you cannot fudge on connectors. Please make sure that this specific wiper blade is certified for your vehicle.The most difficulty I had was removing my old wipers because I had no instructions for that. Once removed, this Bosch blade installed, literally, in seconds. It does come with rather simple directions for installation, and has a snap down protector where the hook is inserted into the arm connection.Anyway, not much to say about a wiper blade if it works and this works fine. It arrived in time to be used on a normal sleet and snowy winter day in the Midwest of the United States. The moisture was wiped away quickly with no streaking. Durability questions are always an issue with any product, and I typically revisit my reviews if there are any abnormal issues there. I expect at least 1 year out of my blades, and usually I get 2 or 3 years.An easy 5 stars for a nice looking piece of equipment that installs easily and (so far) wipes away sleet and snow with no streaking.Note: I also acquired aBosch 18A ICON Wiper Bladefor the passenger side of my 2003 Toyota Matrix (18 inches is the exact size recommended for the passenger side of my car) and the review for that is pretty much identical to this one.
I've had this on my Saturn now for over a year. Its still going strong! Winter blades don't last long enough to justify the price but this does. It doesn't get clogged up nearly as easy as regular blades. It seems to be sticking to the window better and highway speeds too. They are a lot of money and I decided to go for it after only using the cheapest blades forever. It seems to have been a good choice so far.
I will never go back to the "old" style wipers.  This new design (well it's been out a couple years now) works so much better for me.  They don't collect ice like the old ones.  They wipe cleanly and follow the contour of the windshield.  They look better - simpler and more attractive.They're easy to install - and come with "adapters" for various types of wiper arms.  On my car they do not require the adapters (Crossfire).  I just snap off the previous ones and snap these on.When it's time to deal with winter, and your windshield is covered with snow and ice, I just lift the blade off the windshield, flex it a little bit, and all the ice and snow comes off leaving a nice clean wiper blade.  Very easy to clean.They last a long time for me, I probably leave them on longer than I should but they don't streak so to me that's a sign that they're still OK.If you have not tried these, you're missing out - I would never go back to the metal frames and rubber inserts - too many moving parts and problems!
Bosch wiper blade seems to be the best wiper blade I have purchased so far, no noise clean sweep the first time, works Great!
Summary: Excellent premium wiper at a premium price, but convenience and "longer lasting rubber" means that cost should be comparable in the long run - one nice feature is that it's good for both winter and summer use.Here in Michigan, your wipers often freeze in the winter.  In certain conditions ice freezes the blade so it no longer flexes to conform to the windshield, which means it stops wiping.That means you end up rolling down your window at stoplights and flicking the blade as it comes by, or having to stop every so often and whacking the blade with your snow scraper.  Winter blades have a rubber jacket around the blade holder but this rubber sleeve typically falls apart in the summer.  It also creates a huge amount of blade lift since it's so big check it outAnco 30-18 Premium Winter Wiper Blade - 18"- the result is that you end up swapping back and forth much as you would winter tires.These blades have a very low profile and also do not freeze - result is that you can keep them on year round.  The design looks a little unusual -  the blade holder is a very flexible, thin and springy metal - it actually forms a "U" when off the car.It just so happens that when I ordered these from Amazon Vine, they only had the drivers side for one of our cars and the passenger side wiper size for our other - this actually gave us a true back to back comparison.  We had new wipers put on our Ford Flex just about a month ago and while they performed admirably in the snow storm we had today, the ICON blades definitely did better.If you have any questions or comments, or if you found this info helpful, please let me know!
Nothing really wrong with Rain-X but these are better in the sense that they never leave a streak.They're as noisy as most any other wiper but work especially well in the hardest rain I've seen.I live in South Florida so trust me, I've seen rain as hard as it gets and these wipers are up to thetask.  I'm a Bosch Icon adherent now and Rain-X is a 2nd-favorite.
I have been impressed with frameless blade technology.  I find that blades featuring this design tend to do a much better job of maintaining contact with the windshield, clearing away rain much more effectively than the older wipers do.These Bosch blades are among the best I've used.  They are well designed and manufactured.  They installed on my old Lexus RX300 without any hassles at all.With these wipers combined with Rain-X treatment on the glass, rain doesn't stand a chance.  The frameless design ensures excellent blade contact.  The blade itself is engineered to be durable and highly effective.These Bosch wipers are much better than the Rain-X Latitude wipers they replaced.  In fact, although I properly installed the Rain-X wipers, the driver's side blade fell off of the car because of a manufacturing/design defect where the blade attaches to the wiper arm on the car -- the mounting bracket remained in the wiper arm, but the wiper blade flew off.  Not the sort of thing you want to have happening on the highway during a rainstorm.Our winter has been mild, so I haven't had the opportunity to see how these perform under winter conditions.  Given how well they deal with the rain, and given how well constructed they appear, I doubt they'll have issues with a bit of ice and snow.All in all, these are excellent blades and worth the premium in price over traditional blades.  In my experience, they also beat the competition in their class in terms of reliability.  Great blades.  Give them a try.
I was given one blade for free to test out.  I'm very pleased with this wiper blade, so I bought another one to match.  I think that's a decent testimonial.The performance in the rain is very good.  It's quiet and effective.  The last thing I want to think about in wet conditions is whether my wipers are going to do their job or not.The installation is pretty simple.  It's easy enough to remove the old blade and install the new one in under a minute.  The clip is slightly non-standard though.  I'm a little worried that it won't be quite as simple to remove it in the future when I replace it (unless I replace it with the exact same one and can read the instructions on the new package).  The cover that slides over the clip isn't completely intuitive, so I can imagine having a hard time remembering how it went on.Other than that, this blade performs very well and even looks really nice.Be careful when you select the blades for your vehicle, because your vehicle may require different blades for the driver's and passenger's side.  I drive a pickup truck, so life is a little simpler for me.Also, remember to be careful when you remove the old blades.  Never leave the wiper arm extended if it doesn't have a blade attached.  It's too easy for the arm to snap back down and shatter your windshield.  Gently put the arm back in place against the windshield while you're fumbling around with the packaging for the new blade.
I have been using wipers from a well known French brand for years, so I decided to make a change.  These work just as well, if not better.
The Bosch 24A ICON wiper blade, 24" fits my Fit, is durable, and was easy to install.  It has a powder black finish that matches my wiper arm.I do recommend it.  Good wiper blades are a must if you live where the sun don't shine much.  Four stars because I prefer OEM parts, but if they weren't available, I'd buy this.
This is the first wiper of this type that I have used (non-hinged frame type) and I have to say that I am impressed.  Usually at highway speeds, my regular wipers start to lift a bit or do not maintain full contact with the windshield, but these low profile wipers keep full contact along the full length, for a clear windshield.  There was no squeak or stutter at any time, even in light rain or when using washer fluid, and they were able to keep up with a full-on heavy rain, which some wipers do not seem to be able to do.  This 24a wiper fits the drivers side of a 2009 Sonata among others (use a 20a for the passenger side of the 2009 Sonata), and works as good or better than any other wiper I have tried so far.  Installation was a snap, just following the directions/diagrams on the back of the package.  I do not live in an area with snow or ice, so I cannot on this wiper in "winter" conditions.
Bosch Icon wipers are great all year long, in the Winter ice and snow doesn't build up like it can on framed wipers, they flex making even contact across the glass with out pressure points. I've been very pleased with performanceand life these wiper offer. They mount on standard wiper arms with a solid grip and stay on once locked down. I clean the edge with a soft cloth and sometimes use a rubber treatment after months of use, I find this keeps thewipers in tip top shape.
I bought this 24A ICON wiper for my Frontier and it was real easy to install them.  It took more time to take out my old Goodyear wipers that lasted me about 6months.  These Bosch wipers run very smooth and no streaks.  We will see how long they last me.
This is a very light wiper made mostly with composite materials instead of metal parts. Our MDX requires two different sizes, a 24A and a 21B - the letters correspond to driver's side(A) and passenger's side(B).Replacing wipers is pretty easy. You may need to look at the instruction as different manufacturers have different ways of releasing them from the hook, but basically takes only thirty seconds to remove the old and snap a new one. For the Bosch Icon wipers, just type in search "Bosch wiper blades -hook installation video II" for online video instructions.CAUTION:Be careful when you leave the wiper standing on your windshield after you remove the old one.  The wiper is spring loaded, without the wiper it is pure metal and it may snap back to your windshield glass.These wipers look a lot better compared to my old one.  It is designed for high speed and supposedly to last 40% longer than conventional types (for that, only time will tell).  The softer frame curves and conforms to the shape of the surface glass as opposed to conventional wipers that has two parts - the metal frame and the moving part that is the rubber.
Replaced Acura wipers with these. Much better. This is the second set of these I have purchased. First set lasted 4 years.
First month of really bad winter , this blade has worked the best Ive had. You really need to have for 6 months before I can tell you if its worth the money. Very expensive. My cheap blades usually only last about 6mo. easy to put on. squeeky clean. works on freeway speeds pretty well. update later.
I have a Kia Borrego SUV, and it is a challenge to get wiper blades that actually do a good job on the large windshield.  So far, I have been highly pleased with this set of Bosch ICON wiper blades.  They are quiet, and work without streaking.  I have used them twice during snow storms, and they have done very well.It was easy to find the correct sizes needed, using the parts finder tool at the top of the Amazon page.  My spouse installed these on my vehicle, and he said they were not any harder to install than a standard wiper blade.  I am very satisfied with these blades, and will likely purchase them the next time I need a replacement.
I am a big fan of "beam" type wiper blades, which don't have external hinged arms.  Not only do they keep a closer contact with the windshield, but they are much less prone to clogging with ice and snow. I've used earlier versions of the Bosch ICON on my wife's car for a few years and the new style looks to be even better.  The rubber is more supple and there's a subtle "wing" air deflector molded into the blade, to help keep it on the glass at high speeds.With a good beam blade installed, you can skip switching to "winter blades" if you're in the snow belt - the ICON will do just fine.  I also like that they seem to last longer than traditional blades - I usually get a full year out of these.One feature of the ICON I like, so far shared only with theValeo 900-ULTIMATEof blades I have tried, is the hinged cover over the mounting hardware.  Not only does this make the blade easy to install, it also makes it easy to remove, unlike those with the spring latch you have to somehow get to release.Do make sure that you get the right size and style for your car.
I typically buy Bosch brand wipers, but a few months ago Amazon had a sale on another brand of wipers (Valeo) so I gave them a try. Never again. They broke, had to return them, broke again, etc. So I gave up and went back to Bosch. These are awesome wipers. Very quiet, don't leave streaks, and are very durable and resistant to ice/snow in the winter. And they last a long time. I've gotten at least 2 years on my last pair of these. They are worth the price.
This wiper blade was much harder to install than my old one. It sort of flopped around, getting in the way with the 24" length until I could get the attachment secured. I have not noticed any difference in wind resistance from my old blades. They do not squeak or stutter or streak after several storms, however, pine needles seem to get stuck in the assembly much easier and have to be removed in order not to have the streaking.They work as well as the old wipers which really cost less, but they do look better.
I got a pair of wiper blades from Costco. They were made by Good Year so I figured they had to be good but for some reason on my prius they didn't work very well but these work great!
These wiper blades were very easy to install. It took less than a minute. They do their job well. Good contact with windshield along it's entire length so there are no missed spots. No streaks. They seem to be made out of good quality materials.Overall, I am very satisfied with these wipers. As far as longevity goes, time will tell and I will update this review if I notice the performance deteriorating over time.
These Bosch Icon Windshield Wiper Blades work great and were very easy to install on my Chrysler Town & County minivan. My car needed these 26A size on the driver side andBosch 20A ICON Wiper Blade - 20", Pack of 1on the passenger side, which I confirmed using the Amazon "Find Parts" tool that shows up at the top of most automotive accessory pages.These blades looked flimsy compared to the ones it replaced since they do not have the ridged support bracket, but my concerns were groundless as they fit and performed very well, leaving not streaks and not "squeaking". Having never replaced my own wiper blades before, I went to the Bosch site to watch the helpful installation video and was able to learn everything I needed to know (really very easy).These exceeded my exceptions in both functionality and ease of installation!Highly Recommended!CFH
What an improvement over the stock blade.  I used this on the driver's side of my prius.  Took all of 30 seconds to install and the blade leaves no streaks or spots.  The cover over the attachment point is a nice touch. Who could ask for more.
I usedBosch 22B ICON Wiper Blade - 22", Pack of 1on the passenger side of my 2010 Honda Odyssey.  It worked so well, I bought the 26A size for the driver's side.  It fits perfectly.  Very quick and easy install.  Anyone can do it.  In the rain, the blades wipe cleanly without streaks.  I'm very happy with them.
I installed this wiper blade on my 2006 Lexus, which my husband is driving in the Seattle area while he is temporarily assigned there. Living in Texas, we don't get much precipitation of any kind so the kind of wipers you use aren't as critical as in areas that see more weather. The ICON line is Bosch's extreme weather blades. I purchased the Bosch Evolution blades for my 2004 Texas driven PT Cruiser, and upon comparing the two, the ICON blades are thicker and feature a different slope which would clearly handle snow and sleet easily.There are no instructions for removing your old blades on the Icon packaging and I had to Google some videos to figure out how to do it. Installing the new blades was easy and there are clear illustrations on the back of the package.Be sure to  plug your car's year, make and model number in the Amazon "Find Parts That Fit my Vehicle" tool to assure you buy the correct blades. My cars all require different sizes on the driver and passenger sides and windshields have different slopes so this is important.These Bosch blades are frameless, meaning that there is no metal frame holding the rubber wiper. The entire blade is thick rubber. I like this better because there are no metal tips that could potentially scratch your windshield should the rubber fail and the rubber is thicker so it makes better contact with your windshield.Of course, it's how well they work that matters and these perform beautifully. My husband drove through a recent snowstorm and some sleet and said these blades made a huge difference and helped him maintain excellent visibility. Get caught in a downpour or a snowstorm and you will be glad you have good wipers!Recommended.
Below is an answer from Bosch when I asked about the Marathons sold at Wally world. They are the same as Evolutions. They are not Bosch's higher end flagship Icons as some people suspected. If you like the Evo's you can save some cash by buying Marathons instead.I cannot personally testify about anything except the Icons witch are fantastic blades. Its the only line I have used. I think the only advertised difference is the longevity between the Icon/Evo lines but if wally worlds price for the Evo equivalent Marathons are low enough on my next trip around I'll try them. There does however seem to be better reviews on Amazon with Icons but I was just glad to find wipers that lasted yrs again instead of just months like other brands ended up doing for me. Hope I helped save a few bucks for someone here.BTW: When installing these beam blades make sure the higher ridge on the frame is up. You should be able to read Bosch. If Bosch is upside down then flip the blade around. While looking at the end or tip of the blade from a side view,it looks like a scoop and should appear like this ( and not backwards like this ). The higher ridge acts like a spoiler on the rear of a car and catches wind to force it downward onto the glass while driving. I read on some reviews were people discovered they mounted them backwards and the blade lifted instead. Some cant be installed wrong,but some can.===Question to Bosch===Are the Bosch Marathon wipers sold at Walmart stores the same blade as bosch Icons? If not what line are they from because they are not even listed on the bosch site?Thank you======Answer==Hello,The Marathon wiper blades are equivalent to the Evolution wiper blade.  They are not listed on our website because they are exclusive to Walmart.Thank you,Robert - Bosch Parts Specialist-----Original Message-----From: mailgenerator {at} de.bosh [mailto:mailgenerator}Sent: Tuesday, December 11, 2012 4:55 PMTo: Communications bosch (RBNA/COM)Subject: Request from Contact function
It rains a lot in New Orleans. Umbrellas are as much accessories as purses or wallets. Sometimes the sky opens up and rain falls in sheets, like driving through a car wash. Down here we need really good windshield wipers. But it's not always clean, we live in the mud and swamp and that splashes up on the car and the windshield, and then of course bugs commit caricide and birds crap and the windshield takes it all while we try to see out of it and not get killed by our fellow New Orleans drivers.The Bosch blades were easy to install. We drive a 2011 scion xb and needed the 22B and the 20B. Ordering is easy, Put Bosch icon wiper blades in the amazon search and just pick anyone, then a screen will come up on the page telling you to make sure this is the right size blade. The page has a menu and you click the make, model, and year of your car and it will tell you exactly what you need and you can go to the right page for the size of wipers for your vehicle.After Jim installed the wipers we had a huge rainstorm and they kept the windshield clear while he drove to work. We also had one of those on and off sprinkles where we had to use the intermittent wiper setting and the icons did a good job of not stuttering and skipping over the windshield. They also did a good job when we sprayed the wiper fluid up and used the wipers to get dirt and gunk off. They didn't get the dried bird poop off but we haven't a wiper yet that does completely.I will update about how long they lasted, we do not garage our cars and so the blades are exposed to rain, sun, humidity, and heat- the usual New Orleans climate.
These are simply awesome wipers.I have the set on a 2001 Chevy Blazer and I could not be more happy with them.They wipe evenly without streaking and never leave any of the mess any other blades I have used tend to do over time.Installation was a snap and should be for even the least mechanically inclined people out there.Both this 20B and the other 20A blade perform the same so there really isn't a difference in the two when it comes to the review.They have held up great for a long while now and I expect a lot more life out of them.I would say these are a great buy.I will update if I feel like they don't last as long as they should, but I really think these blades are quality and will outlast my last set.Thumbs up.
I've had Valeo ULTIMATE and these ICON aero-style wipers for maybe six years on two different cars.  They are not streak-free, as I reckon they are advertised to be.  The passenger-side blade almost always doesn't fully make contact on the windshield by the fender--many others complain of this.  In other words, they don't contour as well as advertised.I think wipers that use refills work better, and are more economical.  Only reasons I use these ICONs is because they look better than the blades that came on my car, which were the non-refillable type.Meh.
I've had these on my car for a little over a year and a half. (I know, because Amazon just reminded me of my prior order as I checked out the product page to order another set.) Only now are they starting to show signs of aging. Before these, I had wipers from Rain-X, and while they cost 75% as much, they last less than 50% of the time. You do the math.So, these last, but are they good while they last? Absolutely. They hold the shape of the windshield well, and never flap or chatter, no matter how fast you're going. Their bracket is solid, and worked well on the J-hook in my car. Many other "universal" mounts didn't work so well, notably the ones from the aforementioned Rain-X wipers.They don't streak, and even after having them on my car for over a year, they are only streaking a small amount.Given that your eyes are the most important safety device on your car, you owe it to yourself to not skimp on wiper blades. But I'm pleased to report that despite the upfront cost, these are actually MORE cost effective than many other premium wiper blades, given that they are the only expensive wiper blades I've ever used that actually lasted longer than the cheap ones.
I bought this for my 2006 F-150.  I've only used these blades for a couple months now but they work great.  The wiper is easy to install and is the best yet for removing water and what not from my windshield.  If you take care of your wipers, they will take care of you.
I discovered one thing for sure. When you're driving across the Peace Bridge into Canada during a lake effect snow storm and your windshield wiper motor fails, RainX could be your new best friend. .. but enough about my adventures.  Well, maybe not because it is sort of relevant.There wasn't a thing wrong with my old hinged wipers but the chance to replace them with this premium priced alternative was an offer I couldn't pass up, even if could only get one so I replaced the passenger side and left the driver side wiper in place. I understand there is an installation video, but really, it's putting on a windshield wiper, not installation of an intake manifold gasket. As I noted all of my exterior window surfaces are treated with Rain-x and I should be writing a review lauding that product because I have used it for years.Before my little mechanical setback, the Bosch wiper was working just fine; no streaking , squeaking or stutters but certainly not anything to write a review about or in any manner that was noticeably superior to its' less costly and much older companion. That's when the real test started as it was the driver side mechanism that failed. As I leaned towards the center of the car, I did have a smidgen of regret that the passenger side wiper wasn't the longer of the two. And it became abundantly evident while the wiper was effectively clearing a bit over half the window, the way Rain-x dissipated the snow flakes and road mist was more impressive.I suppose in the long view (sic), I'll probably replace the other blade with one these beam technology models since they are purported to have a longer life span but for the moment I'm not convinced the significantly higher cost is worth it to me.
These Bosch wiper blades work great.Pros+ They leave the window completely clean, no streaks+ They look good, classier than your average blades+ Very simple to installCons- None
I just replaced these exact blades that I had on my S10 pickup for three years. I had originally purchased them based on Amazon recommendations.They just recently started to streak so I felt it was time for a change. These blades are sold separately as A and B. The instructions on the package show that A is mounted on the drivers side. As before, about 1/8 inch on the outside edge of the passenger side blade does not touch the windshield when it is at rest and doesn't wipe a very small part of that corner and yes I did purchase the right size.Overall I feel they live up to their reputation. Installation is simple and easy and I recommend this item.
Recently, just this past month, I purchased a new car (Chevrolet Impala). I'm loving everything about it, except for one small detail. The factory windshield wipers that come with it are worthless. Sure a little rain here and there and they work sufficiently, but put them up against our Minnesota winter storms and they are wimpy. You know your blades are worthless when you get dirt, mud, slush all over your windshield and you debate which will make seeing out worse, trying to peer through it or using your wiper blades with the windshield wiper fluid which will probably just smear everything so badly you can see a thing,As soon as I received the Bosch ICON Wiper Blades, I couldn't get them on the car fast enough. With just a few minutes of work, the old factory wiper blades were history and 2 new quality Bosch blades had taken their place. Right away I noticed the difference. Ice doesn't get jammed into these as easily, and snow and slush are no match for these blades. No more issues with slush being streaked across my windshield as the defroster melts everything. It tightly grips the glass and scrapes everything off the windshield in scoops. You can really tell how well your blades work when you put them up against ice and snow, and these are exceeding my expectations. Love them and I can finally see out my windshield in the snow!
ThisBosch 22B ICON Wiper Bladewas installed on my 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer.  Living in Washington, rain is just part of the package.  I'm not complaining as I've lived here all my life, but you do need to be prepared.  Prior to switching to these wipers I had been using theRain-X Latitude 8-In-1 Premium Graphite Coated Wiper Blades.  With only a few dollars difference, I figured the comparison would be worthwhile.Quality seems very good.  The hardware and blades did not feel cheap, which made me hopeful that these would last a good while.Installation was easy; they snapped right in to place.  I just had to make sure that I placed the correct blade on the correct side, as Bosch gives two different parts depending on drivers or passengers side.Performance so far has been excellent.  We have had several downpours and the Bosch blades keep my windows clear with no streaking or sticking.My recommendation is that they are well worth the price, for the value received and when comparing them to the Rain-X blades they come out slightly ahead because of the quality.
I had these on my old car and loved them.  When i found they were available for my current vehicle i was pretty excited.  These don't streak nearly as much (if at all) as regular wipers.
I was able to install this Bosch wiper on the passenger side of my 2010 Honda Odyssey in just a few seconds. It looks great and it works well -- wipes cleanly and evenly with no streaks. I'm so happy with it, I'm going to buy one for the driver's side.
I am a big fan of "beam" type wiper blades, which don't have external hinged arms. Not only do they keep a closer contact with the windshield, but they are much less prone to clogging with ice and snow. I've used earlier versions of the Bosch ICON on my wife's car for a few years and the new style looks to be even better. The rubber is more supple and there's a subtle "wing" air deflector molded into the blade, to help keep it on the glass at high speeds.With a good beam blade installed, you can skip switching to "winter blades" if you're in the snow belt - the ICON will do just fine. I also like that they seem to last longer than traditional blades - I usually get a full year out of these.One feature of the ICON I like, so far shared only with theValeo 900 ULTIMATEof blades I have tried, is the hinged cover over the mounting hardware. Not only does this make the blade easy to install, it also makes it easy to remove, unlike those with the spring latch you have to somehow get to release.Do make sure that you get the right size and style for your car.
I have a Ford Five Hundred. I tried three different (read cheaper) brands in a poor attempt to save money. These are the best. They do an excellent job of cleaning the glass evenly withot streaks.
Great Wiper ReplacementI've used Bosch wiper replacements before though this was my first 'ICON' blade. So far, it has performed admirably. If previous Bosch blades are any indication, then this one will last at least a year when used throughout the rainy season and exposed to the hot S. FL sun. Now that I have the hang of changing wiper blades on my car, this one was fairly easy (passenger side).There is no stuttering when the window is nearly dry, and the wiped surface is clear after a single pass. The price is also reasonable for a higher end wiper blade. All in all a very good choice as blade replacement if it fits your vehicle. Keep in mind this is just a single blade, and if you want to replace both blades as I did with my '03 Passat, be sure to get theBosch 21OE Bladeas well.~ Kort
Because these wipers come in two sizes for my vehicle, I decided to post another review. The weather in Ohio changes on a dime - especially in winter: Snow one day, rain and sleet the next. And in the other seasons, you never know when a heavy downpour will wipe out visibility.I've used Bosch wipers for the past 5 years. They're quiet and always deliver with streak-free performance. I also appreciate the make-model-sizing tool the company offers online shoppers to help ensure they get the perfect wipers for their specific vehicle.Two thumbs up because having Bosch wiper blades makes driving in inclement weather that much safer. And it's always better to be safe than sorry.
I've purchased the set (20OE and 24OE) of these wipers for one of our cars, 2010 BMW X5, to replace the "stock", very low quality wipers. You should've seen the old wipers when I have removed them - the edge was full of microscopic "cracks" and the rubber part was separating from the plastic holder on one of the blades! So much for supposedly "free" scheduled maintenance that BMW provides for first 4 years for new cars (what's the use for it if dealer only replaces such parts once a year and uses a low quality parts for that???). Anyway, the replacement Bosch wipers fit perfectly with BMW's mounting system - it only takes few seconds to remove old junk and put these new wipers in. The performance (so far) of these Bosch wipers is as usual - no streaks, absolutely quiet, wipers stay on even during minor bumps from windshield washing squeegee (not sure why some people were having issues with that). I'm glad I've spent extra $$$ on these instead of begging the dealership to do a "free replacement", and you should also not hesitate if you're looking for a simple, high quality wiper blade. Just make sure that it will fit your particular car model (in addition to Amazon's fitting tool, you can also cross-reference with other sources, like TireRack, to make sure that you get a correct size), wash your windshield before installing these and in general use a good windshield washer fluid for your car (I personally like Prestone's Bug Wash oreinszett 921008 Kristall Klar Washer Fluid Concentrate - 8.5 fl. oz., just remember these are not for winter temperatures).
These installed as advertised.  They clean the windshield well.  However the rubber seems a little soft and the windshield has cut some small lines in the blade.
You just cant go wrong with Royal Purple. I get around 10k miles out of this Royal Purple HPS oil and Royal Purple oil filter. 2001 f150 5.4L V8. Takes 6 quarts and doesn't leak a drop. 124,xxx and counting.
Great oil and great service..Nice to know such a great product is available at such a good price. Thank you!
I am a virgin when it comes to RP products and I must say, &#34;The HYPE is RIGHT&#34;!!! This stuff is AMAZING! I went to my local auto service and Ford Dealer and they told me they do not sale RP and didn't recommend it (Oklahomans are not RP friendly). After checking with the RP website and talking to their technicians, I decided to purchase RP and add it to my 2006 Focus ZX3 (all stock). I must say, my engine is now super quite and I can feel the torque and horsepower more than when I bought it off the showroom floor. I have now bought RP oil (HPS) for my 2008 Ford Escape as well. I plan on buying RP's ATF, Purple Ice, and any of their other products that'll help the LIFE and Performance of my vehicles!!!P.S.To ALL my family and friends... Yes the color is really purple! lmbao!
Top tier quality oil.  Have used RP for many years - engines run smooth.  First time to use RP with &#34;HPS&#34;.  Shipped by &#34;Asa Performance&#34;, best price, superfast shipment - received in 3 days from GA to LA.  Recommended.
I started using All Royal Purple Products in all vehicles. And I believe I like this HPS in my modified 2008 Ford F150 more than the normal Royal Purple oil. It's just all around great stuff. You are not going to go wrong buying it. And the price was awesome too. I'm retired military and can get this on base at what I think is a great price. But Here at Amazon, with proper searching, I can get it for a &#34;little&#34; less.
Reading around about headlights, I expected these to be a dramatic difference from standard OEM bulbs....especially considering the price.  When one of my OEM bulbs finally died, I bought this pair.  I replaced only the dead one, and turned on my lights. I walked out in front of the vehicle to see if the light was any different. I could see these are noticeably whiter than OEM...but nothing dramatic. Then I changed the other one and went out driving after dark. I paid close attention to the brightness of the road and I have to say, I was disappointed. These are unquestionably whiter and brighter than OEM, but not to a degree that justifies the cost....at least to me. I was just plainly underwhelmed.I'm not mad or anything, but I will seek another option next time a bulb burns out.
brighter than the stock ones & all aftermarket bulbs I have usedthe plastic case they come in is slightly difficult  to open and one bulb fell out luckily I was on carpet!
Very nice WHITE beam. Much more light to sides and near front than factory lights. Excellent light pattern and sharp cutoff at top of beam.
It's a steep price to pay for headlight bulbs, but I wanted a white light.These bulbs were a little whiter and brighter than stock, but it didn't &#34;WOW&#34; me at all.These bulbs are just ok.
These bulbs ALMOST make your standard headlight look like HID's, but not quite. I find that they scatter the light too much and actually can't see quite as well as the regular Silverstar Extreme bulbs, which are great.
I just finished using this inverter on a long car ride. We plugged in our daughters laptop so she could watch movies on the way. Her laptop adapter is rated at 65 watts, and we used it simultaneously with the USB plug to charge her iPod. The unit got just slightly warm and although the fan does make some noise, it didn't bother anyone while driving. I actually only noticed it made any noise. When I drove to the store by myself with the radio off.What I like most is how compact this thing is. It fits very easily into a laptop bag or small compartment in your car. Although our van has 110V outlets, they are not the 3-prong type. This inverter gives the necessary third prong that many things need.It's portability, quiet operation and dual AC and USB outlets make this item stand out.My complaints are:-the cigarette adapter cord is pretty short-makes some high pitch noise when it's cooling fan runs-USB outlet is on the opposite side as the 3 prong, so when using both, you have cords going different directions-instructions on safe loads are unclear-no carry bag to keep everything togetherMost complaints are fairly minor, so I'm tempted to give a 5-star rating, but am leaving 4 stars, especially because the instructions are confusing on what loads it can handle.
I like that this power inverter is so lightweight and very compact in size, measuring only 4 x 2.75 x 0.75 inches.  It has a USB power port and an AC power port. (and FYI, the AC power port has 3 prongs). It has ventilation opening to help keep it from overheating. I like that is has an LED indicator light  which lights up when it is connected. This power inverter will power most 120 volt products that use 130 W or less. This inverter can supply power for about 2 hours depending on the device.This is a very handy device to keep in your car for powering up your devices on the go.
Compared to the Duracell Inverter we have, the quality of the battery hookups is a bit cheaper and thinner.  However, this little inverter is adequate for the job of recharging ipods and cell phones.  Although this unit says you have up to 175 watts, that is peak power.  Consistent wattage is 130 so you want to be sure that what you have to use on this needs to be consistent with the 130 wattage instead.  I would not go above that, as 175 is PEAK.The unit is easy to use, you can plug it into the cigarette lighter in the car and it provides power to the USB port for easy recharging.  There is a little fan on it and a light to indicates that it is working.  I also tested out the battery usage, and it is great to use for campsites, or other areas where you might need to have a way to run simple 130 watt (or near it) electrical units or recharging of cell phones, etc.The packaging was great- quick open and easy to get to.  No struggling with plastic packages that are frustrating, etc.This is a great simple inverter to have on hand for recharging of various USB friendly components.  It worked quickly and efficiently.
This small inverter is just what I needed.  It works to run small items off a car battery or through the cigarette lighter.  The fan is a little on the noisy side.  Be aware of the 175 watt limit when ordering.  Also, you should know this is not a sine wave inverter, so there are a few items it shouldn't power.
Amazon hit a homerun with this one.  We were debating purchasing a cigarette-lighter car-adapter power cord OR power inverter.  With a power inverter, it's a win/win.  You don't have to purchase special cigarette-lighter car-adapters (like for her Medela machine or my laptop), you just purchase 1 power inverter and plug in everything like you would in an electrical outlet in your house.  Otherwise, we would have had to purchase a cigarette lighter adapter separately for every device we wanted to use in a car.175watts is especially important!  That's a lot.  My new high-end work laptop only pulls 130watts.  The packaging mentions a TV/VCR, which seems exceptional, too.This comes with a cigarette lighter adapter as well as direct-battery connectors.  I don't think we'll ever need to pop the hood and directly connect this to the battery though, but it IS nice that they've supplied that.When it is on, you see a nice blue LED light and you can flip the device over if it's at night and you don't want to see the blue glow.  This is thinner than a pack of cards and about the size of a 4x6 photograph, if not a little narrower.  Also it is super light.Lastly, it will charge your USB devices!  Just bring your USB charging cable and you're set.  This also goes back to not having to purchase a USB specific cigarette lighter adapter for your phone or GPS device, this device is a WIN/WIN/WIN!
I thought it would be nice to have one of these types of gadgets for the car, but I never thought it would come to be something I rely on.Recently I used my smart phone to navigate and without this I am pretty sure my phone would have died long before I got there.That being said I did notice that my phone charges a lot slower when using this in my car.  I don't know if that is a wattage thing, or if my specific car and or battery has anything to do with that.  Truly though, it doesn't matter to me, its just nice to have the ability to plug the phone in while in the car so that I am not wasting battery life while commuting.I really like all the features Amazon has included as well.USB Plug in.Regular three prong plug in.System will shut itself down and not fry your equipment.Having the USB plug in is really nice and knowing my phone or anything I attach to it is safe from surges makes me very happy.Others have said it is loud, but I guess I haven't noticed it because I usually have the radio on in my car.  Its likely that it will be a little loud when you have nothing else going on because it does have a tiny fan on it.In the end, this thing feels like its a quality device and even if it does ever fail on me, I now know I wont live without it or something similar in my car from this point forward.
The Amazon basics 175W pocket power inverter is the lightest I've seen, weighing in at only 6.1 oz. with the cigarette lighter plug attached.  It is also quite small at 4" x 8" x 0.8", perfect for packing in your computer bag.  Besides powering your laptop, it also includes a USB port capable of supplying 2.1A, which plenty for charging a phone, iPad or just about any USB accessory.  I tested the little unit on my Dell laptop.  It powered it easily.  Next, I plugged in a 100W light bulb.  Again, no problem.  The unit has a fan that comes on as necessary to keep the unit cool.  With a 100W load (the light bulb) the fan ran continuously.  I found the fan to be rather loud and high pitched.  In a car, you may not care but the noise level is significant at 58dB at 1 foot (measured with my audio meter).  What I found odd is that the fan ran much faster when the load was reduced or removed.  For some reason, the voltage to the fan must drop significantly once a load is placed on the inverter.  While the inverter is rated at 130W continuous, you can't (or at least shouldn't) do that from a cigarette lighter socket.The manual is a little confusing.  It says you can run the inverter from the cigarette lighter for loads under 130W but also says for 120W-130W to use battery clamps (included) to hook it directly to the car's battery.  Personally, I wouldn't advise running it over 90W from a cigarette lighter socket.  At 90W output, the unit draws 10A from the socket.  That's okay, since most laptop power adapters require no more than 90W.  At 100W, it drew 11Amps, which is over the maximum continuous power most lighter sockets are rated (and fused).  I didn't test the unit it past 100W.If the unit was quieter, I would have given it 5 stars but for using in the car, you may be very happy and you will be hard pressed to find a more compact and light inverter.
An inverter is used to convert the power (12 volt DC) from your vehicle to 110 Volt AC which is what most electronic gizmos use to charge.  It supports up to 130 watts through the cigarette lighter (12v connector).  If you want to go higher voltage than 130 watts (175 watts is max with this device), alligator clips are included to attach directly to your car battery.  I haven't found that necessary in my life so have not tried it.I've used this inverter several times on long car trips to charge my Asus tablet & smart phone; worked great.  Yes, the cooling fan is a little obnoxious at first but I really don't notice it much anymore.It's compact so I keep it in the car all the time.  Good value for the money.
I used this to recharge an iphone and laptop and it worked very well.  The fan turns on under load and is noticable but not a big deal since the radio and road noise in my car drown it out.  The inverter is so small that a fan is a must to keep it cool.  Advantages to this unit are its small size which can fit in most compartments in a car, lightweight, relatively inexpensive and easy to connect and use. It also has a 2.1 Amp USB Port that is very handy to charge the phone or ipod. The negative is the noise of the fan and the unit must be unplugged from the power port in the car to turn it off.This is a very useful and easy to use inverter.  It can also be attached directly to the battery for heavier loads but I did not test that capability.UPDATE: 1/29/13: The power inverter's plug no longer works.  The electrical connectivity is intermitent.  If I move the wire it connects and then disconnects indicating a bad internal connection.  This inverter is just not durable enough for me to recommend it.  I have deducted 2 stars.
In the limited time I have had the inverter my first impressions are favorable although the listed load capacity of 175w may be a bit misleading.My primary intended use is to provide on the go charge capability for a laptop that draws approximately 65w continuous power, well within the inverter's recommended range of not more than 120w when plugged a cigarette type 12v outlet. In instances where required power is more than 120w but not to exceed 130w continuous, the inverter should be clamped to vehicle battery terminals with the included clips. The upward range of 175w refers to the device's maximum supportable load for no more than 5 seconds in peak load situations.  Use for a device, or combination of devices, surpassing 130w is not recommended.This slim form device features one AC port and one USB port, a built-in cooling fan, 12v adapter cord and a battery clip cable but does not have a separate on/off switch. The fan is rather loud and seems to be engaged as soon as the device is attached to a power source.  At this point I cannot address long term reliability however I did notice the unit tends to heat up pretty quickly (the manual also indicates unit temperatures can reach 158 degrees Fahrenheit) although thus far neither the auto cutoff feature nor low voltage indicator lights have been activated during my use.It will support simultaneous power/charging of one USB and one AC device as long as the 130w maximum load continuous threshold is not exceeded. It is projected the inverter can be used for up to 2.5 hours before full depletion of a vehicle's battery charge is likely. Obviously, projected time will vary based on other factors like age, condition and existing charge of the battery itself.The manual further advises caution should be taken when using the inverter when cranking a vehicle's engine as the increase power required may negatively impact powering and charging.
I use this primarily to power a laptop (which draws only 75 Watts) as well as to charge my iPhone 4S. Here is why I like it:1. This is very lightweight and compact. I used to use an inverter made by Radio Shack that worked fine, but it was heavier and bulkier. It also had no cord and plugged directly into my cigarette lighter, which meant that I could not position where the AC outlet was. But since this unit has a cord that attaches from the unit to the cigarette lighter, I can easily position the AC outlet on this unit.2. This is easy to use. Just plug one end of the cord into the inverter, and the other end into the cigarette lighter (I actually plug a multi port charger into my cigarette lighter because that gives me multiple DC and USB outlets; I use one DC outlet for the inverter and the other for my GPS).3. Let me respond to some of the negative comments. Yes, this has a fan that makes a noise while the inverter is being used, but every inverter of this size that I have used has a fan, and the fan on this unit is not any noisier than on other inverters.There is also no on/off switch. True, but it's not a big deal to plug this in and then unplug it, and once again every inverter of this size that I have used lacks an on/off switch.4. This does have the capability to power up to 175 Watts--but like other inverters, that can be done only by attaching the battery cables to your vehicle's battery AND keeping the vehicle running--otherwise you will drain the battery.Bottom line: This is a good value to have an AC outlet plus a 2.1 Amp USB Port, which will charge your phone just as if you used a separate 2.1 Amp DC car charger.
Bought this to replace my older OBDII (Not CAN based).  Love this that I no longer have to drag out the laptop, and the cable with the big adapter thing in the middle that converts from OBDII to Serial/USB.  This is so much cleaner now.However it does take longer to scan and get data at times.  Its not as fast as my older setup, I wonder if it has something to do with the whole bluetooth configuration and transmission.  It takes close to 1-2mins at times to get it to scan to read codes at times.  My old one would give me data in less than 1sec.
never got it to work,no help or support with software,so i sent it back to get my money back,they should not sell crap that dont work.
Doesn't seem to discharge your battery much but I wouldn't leave it plugged in all the time if you live in a cold climate. Even milliamps  will kill your good battery in the matter of days if it's -20 degrees out.I use it on my android. I leave this one under the hood and it gets the bluetooth just fine somehow.
Forget going to Autozone or Pepboys to have your CEL/SES light checked. Do it yourself with this amazing scanner and the Torque app. I've had this for more than a year now and have had ZERO issues. Do yourself a favor and get one
I had this OBD scanner for months before recently having need to use it when my Chevy Duramax truck's engine light went on. I installed the software on a Window 7 laptop and made the connection to this Bluetooth device. Not a good installation program is provided. The user needs to know how to go into Windows and see which COM port(s) are being used to connect to Bluetooth otherwise the setup will fail.The scanner read one DTC number but that was it. When I took the truck to the Chevy dealer their code scanner came back with 6 error codes. Glad the dealer's mechanic was a good one and fixed every one of the 6 problems (which included replacing one of the two NOx sensors).Very unimpressed with a scanner that missed 5 of 6 DTC codes. Better to spend more and get one that will provide all the information.
I was doubtful of this product because of the low price, but it works great.  No problem setting it up and I like being able to monitor boost with and other functions on my android phone.  This would have saved us a lot of anxiety last summer when we were on a trip and the truck started to make an unusual noise.  I ended up having someone else repair something I could have easily fixed, if I had known what it was.  The boost gauge would have identified the problem.
Works great with the &#34;Torque&#34; application for android devices on a Samsung Tab 2 7&#34; tablet for me.  Pulls all the OBD2 data from the cars I've hooked it to.  On my Fords it pulls $06 data as well to get pre-code throwing monitored statistics, like misfire counts per cylinder.  With the Torque application and this scan tool it is possible to build lots of views with meter and moving graph displays on multiple monitored items per screen and multiple screens.
Compact and offers great useful automotive data!
Combine this with torque pro and you're rocking.Something like this use to cost $1500.There are cheaper models but this one is good quality.
Works perfectly with my 1998 Dodge Ram Van B3500.  I'm using Torque right now but I may try some other apps to see if they're any better.  Remember that the initial pairing requires the codes 1234 for your Android device.
I like this product because it does exactly what it is designed to do.  It reads your computer and allows you to clear codes if needed.  Depending on the vehicle you're trying to marry it up to you may have to tweak some settings in the Torque App but once everything is good in there they work very well together.  I recommend purchasing this product to all DIY mechanics.
This item works great easy set up instructions have used it several times to clear throttle body codes on my 2012 Chevy Silverado 2500HD Ext Cab I get the code due to installing a throttle body spacer on 6.0 liter 368 cu. in. Only when engine is at 5500 rpm and below 30 degrees out 4.10 gears don't help gets up there to quick.
PRO:  Works, lights are bright and needs no batteries or buttons to push, just plug it in.CON: A little large, but not bad, it'd be nice if it came with an extension cord, and instructions on what the blinking light mean.OTHER: Make sure you buy the extension cord for this as many OBD2 plugs on cars, trucks, vans, etc. are in a very inconvenient place if you want to leave this plugged in all the time.
Anyone who is purchasing this to use on an Android phone with the Torque app should have no problems.  I use this with my HTC Thunderbolt and 2000 Volvo S70 and it works every time.  Have not had any errors while using this device.
I needed something to clear engine error codes on my 2005 GMC.  This was the cheapest way I found to accomplish it.  Works great.  Readout is on your blue-tooth phone, and then I tell it to clear the error codes.  If you leave it in, it seems much more &#34;hidden&#34; than one of the units with a cord.  Conflicts a little with my parking brake release, so I just keep it in the glove box and use it when I need it.  Phone displays a ton of other real time information if you want, but I haven't used those features.
Not going to add much, but decided to go with this one over the cheapies on the auction site.  Mine too came very quickly and works great with my android phone and torque app.  I also never tried the cd that came with it, so can't say anything about that.  Just happy the adapter worked as described and was shipped quickly.
I bought this to use with my Torque app on my Samsung Galaxy S3.  When I have it plugged in it syncs up quickly to my phone and works great at doing what I need it to do...however, for some reason, when I am not using it and I have it plugged into the OBD2 it will occasionally make my car freak out.  I will get error messages on my instrument cluster telling me to check my power steering system, change oil soon and even make the needles stop from moving.  Not that big of deal, I just unplug it when not in use and dot ever have an issue.  The price is right and it works!
I know some people have trouble with the cheap ones.  I put this on and my Android phone connected to it using the torque application with no problems.
Do yourself a favor. Don't pay a garage $70 to give you the error code from your car.Buy this product and the &#34;Torque&#34; App (only $5) on your phone. It works perfectly.I was able to find and fix the problem (problem with the Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor 2) on my Honda Accord 2007 SE.
Tried it on two vehicles.  Needed to be reset by unplugging and or restarting my app.  A bit of a pain as I was being cautious and shutting down the pickup and restarting.  Also did not read fuel setting on my silverado.  That did work on Doge Ram 2500.  It would be better to get a more expensive device that works and that can be updated.
I gave this unit a 3 star not because the scanner is bad . its not thi unit works great . finally a unit that works and at a great price.However there is a problem with the Scan Tool CD sent with unit . Its a 2006 dated CD .The info on it is outdated and not even understood by BAFX representatives. Spent alot of wasted time trying to get BAFX to answer questions regarding Scan Tool. Gave up  and after  researching  Scan Tool  contacted  Palmer Peformance  Engineering who informed me that BAFX was not authorized to supply this CD and had been asked not tosupply it.Rather than get confused with Scan Tool CD contact PPE.I ended up using  Touch Scan with the Elm 327.PRO's  Definitely puchase ELM 327 from BAFXCONS  Thow out the CD and contact directly an appropriate software provider { Not Torque , who offers little to zero support}In addition Touch Scan has 14 day free trial  offer.
This has been a great little gadget. I have a cheapy OBD2 scanner that only has capabilities to read and clear codes, this one goes so much further and is interfaced with my Android phone, so no need to have additional things lying around. I had no problems pairing it with my LG G2 phone.Something that's not immediately obvious from the instructions but makes sense when you think about it: plug the unit in, then turn the car to at least &#34;RUN&#34;. Should work fine after that.
1) It works 2) It's cheap....That is all
For just the basic usage this is a real deal.  It does draw power when auto is turned off so disconnect when parking for long periods to be safe.  I do not know if the more expensive ones also draw power when auto is off.
Purchased this for use in a 2004 Grand Am with the 6 cylinder engine. Used the Torque application on a Samsung Galaxy Nexus running Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.2Absolutely no problems. Hooked up right away with the Bluetooth code 1234.Pros: Price, shipping, price, ease of use, price and priceCons: Doesn't make me toast in the morning and bring it to me in bed.I would buy this again.
The reviews quality/quantity speaks for itself.  This product works with most modern cars and is compatible with any bluetooth smartphone or computer.  If your laptop does not have bluetooth, buy a cheap bluetooth adapter.  It reads engine codes and basically any information that the ECU can see, you can see.I use mine with Torque pro on my Droid 2 Global, and I set up my screens so my default screen shows instant MPG, trip average MPG, throttle (% open), miles until empty, fuel tank level, and miles driven (trip), as well as a trip reset button.  The second screen shows engine HP, engine torque, air/fuel ratio, boost psi, throttle/intake psi, intake air temp, and engine rpm.  The third screen shows 0-60 time, 60-0 time, 1/4 mile time, 1/2 mile time, peak engine HP and peak engine torque.  I can also create custom fuel maps, perform engine dynos for tweaking, view engine trouble codes, clear engine codes, and a whole bunch more that I have not messed with yet.If you go to a shop or dealer for a diagnostic check because your check engine light is on, they will charge you about $100 to basically plug in another version of this tool, read the engine code, look up what the code means, print it out, and hand it to you.  This tool pays for itself 5 times over the first time your check engine light comes on.Bottom line:  Best vehicle investment I have found to date.
This device works as advertised. I use it with an app called "Torque" but there are many more you can play with too. Highly recomended for the price and ease of use.
As mentioned in other reviews, the device is fairly large (4"x4"x1") and on Toyotas with manual transmissions, which have the OBDII port right underneath the steering column between the brake pedal and the clutch, the adapter gets in the way and you run the risk of knocking it out during shifts if you're not careful. Otherwise, the adapter connects fine to my Evo 4G phone and the Torque app and maintains bluetooth connectivity without dropping. The adapter draws power from the battery even when the ignition is off so I would be hesitant to leave it connected all the time, though the power draw should be pretty minuscule. Has anyone left it connected without resulting in a dead battery in weeks/months?
I have a 99 Subaru Outback and got the check engine light. The mechanics wanted 75-150 to diagnose the problem. I went to a couple of the Subaru Forums and decided to give this a try. I am NOT a mechanic but I can do the maintenance side of things. I hooked this up on the left side of the drivers side dash and it worked. Pulled the code and it was the MAF sensor, which I already kind of knew anyway. I have a new MAF sensor on the way and will update this. I was able to clear the code several times and the same code comes back. At this point it has more than paid itself off. The MAF thru the dealer was 325.00 plus the troubleshooting fees. Updates coming.On the Subaru the plug for this is on the left side right by your knee so if you are going to order this and leave it plugged in for me you need to order the extension cable. This is running on the bluetooth on my Droid MAXX. I also downloaded the app Torque and it fits my needs at this time. The 4.00 it cost is nothing.
Ive tried the imitations from eBay and i have to say by far this unit is the real deal and the customer support is superb. I had a question about this and was having an issue after swapping it to another car and he got the answer to me the next day and was correct with the issue and his answer, buy this !! Works with kindle fire that's been rooted to KK 4.4 and both my cell phones ones running android 2.3
Excellent for pulling codes and displaying information, which is the main function I was looking for in a cheap, functional scanner, along with the torque app it is a very effective, logical tool. Sure it's not going to do what my 300.00 hand scanner does, you have to be realistic, but for simple coding/info you cannot beat this superior product and I definitely recommend it-small, functional, straight forward codes and information.
Followed the directions supplied, and it worked with my Samsung Galaxy Nexus with my VW EOS.Had a few codes set, was able to show the dealer what I had for codes. Of coarse they still charged me the norm $50 for diagnosing, but I knew that with the code set I could continue to drive without damage to the vehicle.
BAFX ELM327 Bluetooth OBD2 Adapter, Revision 1.5I purchased this based on all the positive feedback on Amazon, however my primary vehicle is a 2000 Ford that uses J1850 PWM. This protocol seems to be a point of contention among the ELM327 clones. Just doing a search within the BAFX product reviews show that some people cannot get it to work with PWM, and only a few more recent reviews indicated it will work. I am happy to report that it works fine on my PWM Ford. I can also confirm that this BAFX ELM327 works on a 2007 Ford Mustang (CAN Bus) and a 2009 Chevy Cobalt (No idea what GM uses).The Torque Lite and Torque Pro apps are all that I have used thus far, and my Galaxy S3 detected the BAFX ELM327. The code to pair it was "1234". The PID readouts are fast, I have no complaints about lag or delay.My only complaint is the size of this BAFX ELM327. On some vehicles it isn't a problem. But on the 2 Fords, one aims it straight down onto my throttle leg although there isn't any contact. The other Ford jams it straight into my clutch foot and there is contact! I have to twist my foot to the right to avoid the BAFX when using the clutch. The GM vehicle and Ford van was fine because the OBD2 ports were parallel with the dash and aimed straight at the driver without obstructing my legs.Overall: 5/5 stars, the actual product could have been made smaller to not obstruct the driver on certain vehicles. It sticks out quite a bit on some vehicles. Great price, solid construction, and worked properly on my J1850 PWM Ford.
I lost it, I have heard it works good, my phone sucked and I got a better one so I hope I find it so I can use it!
Tools needed:wirecutter, a screw driver, and electrical tape or cap.Total time: 20 minutesYou car has two types of voltage leads. One is constantly on (BAT), one is only on with the key (called "ACC"). The OBD2 readers get their power off the pin that is connected to the (BAT), so it's not shut off with the car, AND another pin that has power only when the car is on. BAT is ALWAYS pin #16, and ground is ALWAYS pin #5. The other pins are for sending and receiving data, and one is 12volts when the vehicle is on, but it varies by manufacturer.However, since you only need power when the vehicle is ON, just go ahead and follow Michi's diagram, but just extend the wire from the GREY harness to any 12v accessory wire (back of cig lighter is easy). Clip off the lead from the BLACK plug and cap off any wire that's left there. Now the unit will only have power when the car is on, and we don't even have to figure out which is pin is the ACC since it's already wired. Make sure you cap the wire off the BLACK plug on pin#16 tho, that way it doesn't spark when you turn it on.The only drawback here is that if you wanted to power a scanner up without the vehicle being started (which mechanics would want for sure), you can't. But for your purposes, you now have a BT adapter that only turns on with the car.tl;dr- cap black pin #16, run lead from grey harness inside the adapter to 12v ACC, done.
This thing is great for the money! It hooks up the car very easily to an OBDII connector via Bluetooth to and android cell phone.  It will NOT FIT an OBDI connector(1996 or less).  You do have to download a program called torque from the google play store.  The application torque is mandatory but there is a free version and a paid version on the Google store.  The free version has just enough to read your codes and reset them as well as a couple items to monitor engine performance.  The paid version which I feel is the best deal has all the widgets to monitor almost all aspect of engines performance.  As well as data logging, system tests, and a few fun toys like 0 to 60, 0 to 100, and even a horsepower analyzer.  The last few items are not 100% accurate, but fun to play with.Lastly when it comes to breaking down your fault codes the system contains a full break down of codes for general as well as brand specific codes.  If you need more information about the code it gives you, there's a link to an Internet site which  gives you further detail on the code with a breakdown for the specific models that The code could pertain too.  Overall, I think this is excellent product and it's a steal for the price.I have no issues
you expect clones to be , quality, really>?  why?let me list why they are poor.1: hand soldered , and badly done, in many cases. (bad connections inside)2: uses a 5vdc power regulator chip, that is not any good at all in cars noisy environment, nor did they add filters to protect this weak chip,That is why it dies, after working , The Cars A.C clutch cycling can blow up the 78 series reg, in side in 1/10th second.  a fact.3: the processor and op codes, for the chip (firmware) was stolen for the Canada company that invented (copyrighted) it,  (a hard cold fact)the real maker of the chip is here ..  ask them.http://elmelectronics.com/obdic.html4: the APP software too, was stolen.  if you look close, and see what you have, you will find out its and illegal version of an american company, software.call them and ask.  they will make your ears burn. (the maker, look them up, and ask them)now those are the facts , and it is a clone,you do get what you pay for, when buying clone, anything.if you had bought a real one, it might  stay working.here is the real tool.  and they do speak English and do take calls and DO have a help forum, dah?the real tool is herehttp://www.scantool.net/scan-tools/smart-phone/that being said, (i have 4 top brand scan tools)  but if you buy 3 of these clones, for $17, on any sunday , one might work. (i have 3 but expect zero to work.)my last one failed for bad soldering inside.  im an electronics tech, (retired) and diagnosed it and repaired it,the next one that died, i found the 7805 chip blown to bits.  that chip dont belong in cars, unless you know how to make it work (filters)I do have a fix for it.  using a TVS chip on the input of the reg.  it works great.here is that $1 chip the cloners can't clone, or want to buy.  only 50 cents in thousands.http://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/SMDJ22CA/SMDJ22CACT-ND/2409345that is the  truth !
This is probably the best under $30 purchase I have ever made!  This is a bold statement, but its the solid truth.  This in conjunction with the Torque app, will allow you to read/clear codes and see various information in real time.  I own several vehicles that include, but are not limited to a Toyota Tercel, Chevy Silverado, Chevy Impala, and a VW TDI Jetta, which this device works flawlessly.  No more having to hunt down an AutoZone when your CEL comes up.  Just plug in this bad boy, read the code and then look it up online!  Best part after you're done you can clear it! That in itself makes this product worth it's weight in gold, but it continues to provide value in the form of a real time diagnostics machine.  Various temps etc.Again these features are accessible with the Torque app which this tool pairs flawlessly with.I used it with four different phones: LG Optimus G Pro, LG G2, Nexus 4 and Nexus 5.  No problem with either.
Bought this to use on three vehicles with Torque app on Droid.  Arrived on time, plugged it in, connected the bluetooth and it works fine.  Have used it on two of the three vehicles so far with no problem, haven't tried the third.  No problems with ordering, shipping, installing.  Works great.
I'm using this with a Samsung Infuse running Android 2.2 and can confirm that it works great.  Using the Torque Pro Android app I get real time performance, temperature, and acceleration data from my Honda S2000.  So far the connection has been secure and I haven't experienced any drops or inconsistencies.The item came in a plastic bag (!) with a CD, so don't expect any fancy retail packaging.  The overall build is fairly mediocre, though it's unlikely to matter too much since it probably won't experience much physical stress.There are many more expensive options on the market, but for the casual user, this is a great value.
I've used this in BMW concertible and my Suzuki SUV and it worked well in both.  I used it to drive Torque software.
Watch out for Fords bull crap, I have a 96 f350 powerstroke 7.3L.  Everything works once you get the software set up right. if you use the torque app you have to import the ford specific codes to get anything other than rpm.  in torque pro ($4.99 android market) go to settings, Manage extra PIDs/Sensors, Settings( three little dots on top right), add predefined set, Ford (Incl PowerStroke)Worked perfect with my 98 Tacoma!  I love the MPG setting!Its always something with ford :(
I read about this tool online and decided to purchase it. It works as described and provides all sorts of data. Synced with my android phone immediately. It reads fault codes and provides realtime data as the vehicle is in operation.I would recommend this scanner to anyone interested in monitoring their vehicle on board computer data plus speeds, e.t.s and all sorts of other functions.
Paired this with Torque on my tablet and it's pretty awesome. Tons of data metrics to choose from, and for a fraction of the cost of traditional OBDII scanners! Highly recommend.
I had the elm 327 before this, but i had alot of error codes, this one is perfect on the Mini with the torque app, it even gave me voice read outs of when the car was cold, or when there could be ice on the street, very impressive
I was looking at expensive code readers... and decided to give this a try for a tenth of the price... and it is about a 1200 dollar unit in one.. the only thing that could make this better is if I could tweak and program my ECU.. Works well and make the investment to buy the Torque Pro version.
This thing is very use full along with Torque App for Android... i was able to check fault code easily
it works as promised, and it worked right out the box too PERFECT.No more being held hostage with the car mechanic.
It appears to be a fast enough connection so that various SW programs can update in near real-time.  Plus, no cable to avoid/be careful with.
works great with my phone. Really helped me trouble shoot error codes and check engine lights. All the displays you can pull up are pretty neat too. For the price, you can't go wrong.
Have had no issues with this using Torque on my Galaxy phone. It is almost instantaneous. Bought this to replace one I had purchased a year or so ago. Of course I ended up finding the lost one a week after buying this one..
I just needed an inexpensive OBD 2 reader to work with Torque.  I have had issues with a Check Engine Light constantly coming on due to a fuel vapor issue.  This seems to work fine.  I used it with my Google Nexus tablet and Torque, running on a Bluetooth connection on a 2012 Mercedes GL diesel with no problems.The only thing against this device is that it is large.  I would prefer a small one.But if you're looking for a good all-around cheap OBD 2 reader, this should do the trick just fine.
This product works great to read engine codes and sensors via Bluetooth devices.  However you should not leave it connected permanently as it draws some current while the car is off.  Compatible with Torque app.
Have mine plugged into a 2013 Subaru Legacy.  Paired with my Samsung Galaxy S3, running Android 4.2.2 and using the &#34;Torque&#34; application.  Device pairs fine, however the default pairing password was NOT 0000 as provided in the instructions, but 1234. After I figured that out, it has worked fine.  I also have Torque set for &#34;fast polling&#34; which gets data from the scantool at a faster rate.  Some scantools don't work well with &#34;fast polling&#34; but this one does for me. Provides lots of useful engine data, e.g. instant MPG, intake air temp, water temp, voltage, exhaust temp, RPM, 1/4 mile performance, etc...  I have left it in continuously and not had any issues with running down the battery, but the longest my car sits without running is maybe 36 hours in the past month. If you go on vacation or leave the car off for more than 4 or 5 days, you might want to unplug it.  The device does not state how much current it draws when idle, so no idea of how long is really safe.
I just drove 7000 miles with this plugged in logging my trip.  Never once had a problem, it was reliable as can be for a drive around the block or a day of driving 15 hours.  I've also used it in 2 different vehicles, and both worked great with Torque as the software on my droid.  Couldn't ask for more.
I bought this and installed it immediately. It connects to my phone with no problems and it workes with the torque app. I'm very happy with my purchase and recommend this product to all my friends.
I had a little trouble to pair my Samsung tablet to this device but purely due to my inexperience with Android since I also just bought the tablet.  I went BAFX website to email them for help ([...]) and within 24 hours, Kevin emailed back and also called me to help.To make to story short, you need to pair device "CBT" from the tablet "Setting" Menu and also need to pair the Torque software.  Here comes the trouble I had, look for the "3 bar" at bottom of screen to pair with software.  With the smart phone, it would be the "3 dot".  Once paired up with both tablet and Torque SW, everything works beautifully as expected.  Also once device is paired properly, LEDs flash in interval to indicate communication is established through bluetooth.
This seems to be working fine for me using the Torque app on Android.Issues I have found-The device mac address is generic and can cause issues with multiple devices-have to enter the password for the device every time the app is shutdown
Connected in seconds to my Nexus One (Android 2.3 Phone) and the free Torque app.Much easier than my old laptop software/ USB tether to the ODB port.
Hooks up perfectly with my Android phone and the Torque Pro app ( paid version.)Lots of good features in the App, not really because of the scan tool, but the ease of install and hookup, plus the low price sealed the deal for me.  Even though about buying another one so I can just leave it plugged in, but there's a chance it could bleed my battery down I guess.
You're going to need the torque app, but the free version will do fine. Instructions are pretty clear and this device has helped so much in little time. Highly recommend!
I bought this to use with the Torque app on my phone. Works well, have not had any issues with it at all.
This is a great tool for hypermilers.  What I specially appreciate is the ability to use the Torque app on my Galaxy Note II to visualize in real time the air intake temperature and coolant temperature.  This level of precise monitoring during highway, city and suburban driving.  This enables me to properly cover a sufficient amount of the grill to improve aerodynamics and allow cool air to reach the air intake.  If you preheat your engine or insulate the car in the evening, this tool will give you an easy reading of how successful your efforts are.
Worked great in our 2005 Chrysler 300, 2002 Buick Century and 2000 Dodge Dakota 4x4. I use my tablet for looking at all the reading.
I'm both a pro tuner, and the guy you come see if you MIL lights are on. I have both the computer based software and this little guy, and may I just say that although its a generic product, it really holds its own.I use this adapter and an app called Torque. I downloaded it from the Google play Store, not sure if its on Apple.The app was $4.00 one time. There is also a demo/free version.You can use it to scan for codes, clear the codes, and even use the internet to look up what the codes mean and how to fix them. All because of this little guy! You do even have some more option with Torque, so you can run more complex tests, like torque, boost, and MPG.If you own a smartphone, and can use it competently, I suggest getting this, coupling it with Torque or some similar app, and then you'll have a pretty advanced diagnostic set up from under $20.00
I plug this into my Lancer and within seconds (using free Android app called Torque) I am real-time monitoring everything from throttle-position, speed via GPS, speed via the car's computer, RPMs, trip mileage, engine load and more. For the price, this is incredible! I have not used it to read check-engine codes yet (knock on wood) but it does scan for codes with the app on my phone loads. Neat gift idea for car-enthusiasts.
this works surprisingly well. i wasnt expecting much from it, but i hook it up to my tablet and use the torque program and it gets the job done for cheap.
I use this OBD2 bluetooth scanner on an Iconia A501 tablet and it works just fine. I was easily able to have the A501 tablet discover this bluetooth device and then had an Android OBD2 app pair with it and start showing vehicle information. Keep in mind that this should work with most Android devices but the key is finding a usable OBD2 App. The only one that I could find that would work was OBD Droidscan and I had to pay $3.99 for it but was worth it. I tried a half-dozen free Android OBD2 apps but none of those worked.Since this is an ELM327 device, there is lots of software that should work with laptop computers but I didn't try it with any. I just plan to use it with my A501 tablet.Overall a very inexpensive OBD2 scan tool.
Work fine.  First time I tried it there was an issue.  My phone had a blue tooth issue.  Now it works fine!!!  Great product.  User error....  ;(
Never worked right out of the box.  Torque would constantly say "faulty reader" until 2 weeks later it largely stopped working (it would only send updates once every 5 seconds...not acceptable).  Sent it back, got a refund from Amazon, stepped up to the non-generic Scantool.  There appears to be several different copies of this design floating around here and ebay.  They all probably come from the same factory in China and change the sticker with their logo.
I got this specifically to use on a 1996 model year car and it still cannot generate a reliable connection. However when i put this in my 2011 vehicle, it works without issue.
This product in conjunction with the Torque app for Android (not sure if they have an iPhone variant) lets you diagnose a wide range of factors of your OBD2 car. From your gas mileage to real time stats to clearing error codes, this does it all. Become the savior of your non-car friends who has car troubles now and then and buy this product so you can find out what the problem is! They will love you for it, and you will hate yourself for not having bought it sooner!
Used it for years, this thing is awesome!
Would not connect from my 2005 Dodge Ram Diesel to a Toshiba A100 or a Tmobile G2 with the Torque app.
I didn't even know this type of product existed, but this thing is awesome.  Pair it with the Torque Android app, and it is the bomb.  I've used it on all of my cars, two Toyota's, a Saturn, and a Camaro.  I could not have asked for more.  Clearly they hit this product out of the park.
Connection instruction is online in video.  Not too hard to follow and understand little differences.  It also comes with Easyobd cd, and I could use my laptop, borrowing bluetooth receiver from the headphone.  Easyobd is user friendly.  I failed state inspection and I spent a few days trying to diagnose with forum help.  With this tool, I think I found the suspect.  Live scan really helped.
Works great with the Torque Pro app for Android.  Just what I needed to scan for KR and other readings on my 99 Regal GS.  I was worried I would have to buy the $260 aeroforce II, but forget that! $30 total for this and the app and I'm set!
This is a must have for anyone who has a smartphone and a car. I remember I always had to go to a auto store to get my engine lights checked and some stores charged upto $50. Before this, i bought a wired device that would simply give me a code. WIth the Android, or Apple Torque software, this is a amazing tool. It is very easy to connect, just plug it in and use bluetooth to connect. Make sure that you disconnect all other bluetooth devices when using this, otherwise it won't work. Once conncected, open the Torque app and the possibilites are endless. You can check your engine light and the app will give you the fault code and allow you to go to a website and see the details. You can also clear the code. Besides that, it also gives you MANY other information about your car. This is a must have. Just try it and if you don't love it, return it.
This fit my 2011 Jeep Wrangler 2 door Rubicon perfectly.  It provides nice padding, protection, plus I think it looks really nice!
These people who say it fits snug and doesn't pop off either had to do what I did or they don't have a JK; this thing wont stay on the armrest the moment you open up that center console (in my '07 JK at least and as far as I know they didn't change the design of that armrest for newer models).In order to get it to stay put I unscrewed the armrest from the center console (Torx screws).I then pushed the screws through the neoprene and reinstalled the armrest back onto the center console.So... now it firmly sits in place and doesn't pop off the moment my dogs step on it or I open it. NOW its solid. But there is NO WAY that it is solid for anyone else without modifying it like that. It takes a LITTLE more effort to get it to click shut, but not too much.Other than that, it looks decent, and I don't mind that I had to figure out a solution on my own, but some instructions SAYING to do what I did would have been golden.
Love this! I don't scald my arm on my console anymore in the hot West Texas sun! I highly recommend it!
I have a 2011 2dr Jeep and tend to go 'topless' for most of the summer.  I immediately noticed that once the sun has come out, the center console heats up very quickly,  I ordered this neoprene cover and was very impressed with how it eliminates the discomfort of the sun causes to the 'stock' material on the console.  It also prevented the dog from slipping as much when traveling between the front and back seats.  Within one summer, the armrest was badly faded... I just ordered another and sprayed it with UV protection that I ordered from the company I got my seat covers from.  I'm hoping that this keeps this pad from fading so quickly.  If it wasn't for the fading, this would definitely be a 5 star product.
This is a very nice addition to any jeep !!!! Got two one for the wife's jeep and one for mine. They stay on and we never had a issue while getting into our console. I would highly recommend this to everyone . Very fast shipping had them in three days with standard shipping .
Looks good, easy to put on.  Only complaint is that it doesn't stay in place too well.  Had to put 4 small screws through it into the console to keep it there.  Other than that, no complaints.
Adds comfort to the armrest and stays cool.  Unlike other reviews, it fits my console perfectly and does NOT come off when I open the console top.  My dog likes to stand on the armrest, and this gives him a firm, non-slip, surface and protects the console from his claws.
Very nice and looks well made , It came earlier then I was told and thats always a good thing. Not a bad price  as its very functional. All in all I would recommend this product.
I ordered this so I wouldn't have to use a towel on my armrest when I have the top off and the sun heats it up.  This has been a great addition to my 2011 and also adds comfort to the armrest along with adding protection.
This was easy to install and it fits great. Makes my armrest comfortable. I can see this helping keep cool in the summer.
Love this!  At first Amazon said this would not fit my 2013 Jeep Wrangler, but all other websites that carried this product said it would fit-no I see that is does say it will fit, and yes it does!!  This is a great center console cover, I used to use a black or gray hand towel to keep my console nice, now I have this and it fits like a dream!!  I have had no issues with slipping, etc. stays put and is nice to rest your arm on while driving, love it!!!
its very comfortable who ever owns a JK knows how hard that plastic arm rest is and how hot it gets in the summer with the top off.there are  couple problems with this pad, first it doesn't stay in spot because there is nothing that actually holds it in its place except the elastic band around the bottom and thats not enough so every time i open the compartment the pad falls out and i have to put it back on so i learned not to open the compartment all the way just half way is good a lil annoying but it works, second  thing i noticed is when i had the top off and the doors off and i didn't rest my arm on the pad the air lifted the pad from the back bottom i almost lost it twice but i caught it ( i was very impressed with my reflex at that moment ).over all its the cheapest in the market for 20$ you cant go wrong i got used to the fact every time i'm at the drive thru buying coffee and opening the compartment to get my change i have to adjust the pad it became a habit and it doesn't bother me anymore.
Fits and functions as designed.  You will have to pull up on it a bit to get your key to work but it's comfortable and fits well.  Highly recommend.
Fits well and woerks well. Protects it from crossing over like my lil ones tend to do or my dog. truth is its pretty comfortable as well. Great company too.
I ordered this product to protect the center console. I was using a towel. It was easy to place on the console and stays on when I open it up. Nice product.
Goes on fine, wears kinda quick though.  Not super durable, stitching comes undone after a bit of use. It's cheap, but whatever.
fits well. comfortable. snug. looks great. seems like it will last for a while. doesn't seem to soak up heat like the black plastic underneath does. installed in seconds.
Every Jeep owner should have this.  Nice on the arm and easily removable if you want to wash it. Black matches the 2013 Jeep interior perfectly.  Wish they had a similar item for the door side/ arm rest. Good quality,  You will be happy.
I bought this for a 2012 Jeep Wrangler. It fits great and doesn't slide around. However, the black dye used fades fast. It had faded to a dark reddish-brown about 5 months after putting it on. And that was during a time where I had my hard top on, so it wasn't getting barraged by UV rays.I will look elsewhere when it is time to replace it.
The first time I left the top down on my Jeep and returned to a scorching hot armrest I immediately went to Amazon to look for something like this.Fits fine, dissipates heat, and adds a bit of cushion making the armrest far more comfortable.When i first got it, it sometimes interfered with opening the armrest - so when I wanted to open the storage cubby (as opposed to the full armrest storage, it would come off a little.It eventually adjusted itself and now I have no problems.Unlike another of the reviewers, mine does not pop off when I open the armrest storage - it stays on just fine - BUT that may be what moves the cover into a position that interferes with opening.All in all, It works well and is priced right at under $20.
One of the first things I did to my Jeep. It's soft and protects my original console lid. I now have neoprene seat covers as well and they match PERFECTLY. Great product.
It stays on well and has no creases on it. Also is same color as the seat fabric. Worth the money
Really works. Great way to protect the arm rest in my Jeep or any other car. Washable, and looks good. 30 seconds to put on.
I purchased this armrest cover to go with my new seat covers.  It fits like a glove and the additional padding in very comfortable.
These installed very easily and it looks  great if your looking for a quick way to add something to your jeep this is great and it pads the armrest
adds great  protection and cushion and matches the neoprene seat covers.very nice fit and color match at a reasonable price.OK
Doesn't fit well at all. Every time you lift the console it comes off. Don't waste your money or time trying to make it work.
Keeps the dogs paws (and slabber) off the center counsel, fits well and good quality and glad I bought it.
This is a great padded cover for the armrest in my '13 sport unlimited. The fit is perfect, it's comfortable, it saves your elbow from third degree burns from sun-heated rubber, and it stays on when you open the console. Highly recommended!
This "Zombie Outbreak Response Team" is a very cool sticker that looks great on my pistol hardcase I take to the range. The sticker has nice bold colors and is made from from nicely thick material.I am very pleased!Highly Recommended!CFH
This decal is very well made. Good quality material. All the colors and letters are in perfect registration, and it is very bold and vivid. It comes with two layers of paper for added protection and ease of application. First, you remove the back paper and carefully position the decal. Then use a squeegee or similar method to work out the bubbles and then remove the protective front paper. Voila - that's it. The front paper is semi-transparent, so it is easy to see the design when appying. This allows you to get it positioned correctly.
Bought this to go on my Ammo box and its looks great.It was easy to place on the ammo box.You should get a couple for your ammo boxes.
Cool Sticker!  Just take the time to put it on and get all the air bubbles out!  I was sort of rushing and almost screwd up a simple application!
Loved the colors and design. It's definitely more for maybe a laptop or whatever. Definitely don't use it on your vehicle. Faded to a pale pink after maybe only a few months.
The decal I received was no where as clear as the image shown on Amazon. It looks great IF you are 5 feet away, otherwise it looks like you are looking at a snapshot of an 8-bit video game. Very low resolution. I'll post a picture here soon.*Update: I have taken the image off my car since several people have already made comments about the image resolution. I contacted decal kingz to tell them the product was defective and wanted my money back. They declined since I was 5 days past the 30-day return mark.See my image for details: http://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-media/product-gallery/B005OL7K4E/ref=cm_ciu_pdp_images_2?ie=UTF8&index;=2&isremote;=0
I bought this thinking I wanted very accurate gauge. One it is very hard to couple to the Schrader valve to you I have found the accuracy to be questionable compared to other gauges.
I have been using this gauge 3 times a week for a year now. It's wonder because the battery lasts for a long time and it measures my psi accurately.
I have found this to be a accurate and easy to use digital tire pressure gauge. Easy to use and comes with a nice case. A great item to have in your workshop as well as your vehicle. I would recommend this item to anyone that is looking for a accurate and inexpensive digital tire gauge.
To me air pressure in the tires is vital. I do check all 4 tires cold in the morning before driving at least once a week. I had one made in Germany meter very expensive I bought at Le Mans but lost it and replaced it with this one.I need to know the tires are 100% properly inflated specially since I sometimes drive my BMW at over 250 MPH, need to be certain.Go for it, you'll love it it feels indeed very expensive.
I love this little gadget.  It's heavy duty, well designed, feels solid in your hand.  The head swivels as needed, and there's even a built-in light. Nice bright led display with large numbers, easy to read.  Comes in a very nice padded case, so it will be safe to store in your trunk or glove box, or anywhere in your garage.  Very nice quality, I'm impressed!
This seems to be a quality item and when I can get it to seat/seal on the valve stem, I get accurate readings compared to my other gauges. It is easy to program, but it is difficult to properly seat on the stem.
I got tired of those "pencil" gauges that hardly ever are accurate.  And such a pain to use.  You can easily push this on and wait to not hear the hiss of escaping air and then the pressure is easy to read.Those complaining about not being able to figure out how to program it was not an issue for me.  I know what the tire pressure is supposed to be so I never intended to "program" it.I do have one observation however.  I have a TPMS on my 5th wheel and it's readouts on all four tires are 3 pounds less than this gauge.  I tried another gauge I had and it said about the same readout as this gauge.  Now, I'm concerned.  Could the usually reliable TPMS be off or is it this gauge.  At least the TPMS even if 3 pounds less would still let me know of any pressure/temperature issue.
Easy to read; light and portable; very nice durable case.  Can be set to remember the correct pressure. Highly recommended.
I saw this gauge and I had to jump all over it.  It was an identical clone to an old faithful Sears Craftsman design - down to the screen an LED lamp.  They stopped selling that one about 5 years ago and went to a new design, and I was forced to use inferior gauges.It's accurate, easy to use, with the swiveled head, and easy to carry on the motorcycle in a pouch.The carrying case is also helpful too to insulate it against temperature extremes (more the sun shining directly on it.
THE PRODUCT ARRIVED ON TIME AND IN PERFECT CONDITION. THE READOUT IS LARGE ENOUGH AND CLEAR AND THE SWIVEL HEAD PROVIDES EASY VIEWING FROM ANY POSITION OF THE VALVE STEM. MY 2 STAR RATING IS BECAUSE AFTER CHECKING MY FIRST TIRE, THE VALVE FITTING CAME OFF OF THE GAUGE. I DID NOT WANT TO GO THROUGH THE HASSLE OF EXCHANGING IT SO I SUPER GLUED IT ON AND IT HAS HELD, AND IT WORKS. FOR WHAT LOOKS TO BE A WELL MADE GAUGE, I WAS DISAPPOINTED.FOLLOW-UP 6/8/13  I CHANGED MY RATING FROM 2 STARS TO 5 STARS BECAUSE I WAS SENT A REPLACEMENT AND IT IS WORKING PERFECTLY AND HAS NOT FALLEN APART.
All metal, and no slippage when mounted on the filter casing. I have filter casings in stock for customers' cars in case of breakage. The tool fit snugly when mounted on one of my spares.
Bought it because i needed a this tool to do an oil change on my Tundra. People been saying that this tool cost like 60 bucks from Toyota So to save 30 bucks i am happy with it. It is a solid cast and good quality. Easily fits on a 3/8 socket.
I am glad I spent a few extra bucks on this wrench versus others.  It fits super tight and there is no chance of slippage.  The filter caps on FJ's are notoriously TIGHT and this wrench works perfectly.  Excellent!  Fits my 2012 Toyota FJ Cruiser exactly.
With its heavy cast alloy construction, I could see this being used in a commercial shop. It has to be driven with a 13/16" socket or wrench or as someone else mentioned, a 27 mm socket. No provision for a ratchet drive as pictured. It worked fine on my '12 Avalon V6.
fits perfect, make sure to read the instruction first to eliminate mess.  the first time is always slow and messy but the following oil change is fast and clean for me.  i don't know why some gave bad review, maybe they don't know how to nor read the instruction.
This makes life easy working on my 2GR-FE in my 08 Highlander. Just be careful the metal is kinda &#34;soft&#34; I nearly stripped out the 3/8&#34; opening from the first time I used it. The previous tech  must have used an impact because it took a lot of force to break free. As a result I nearly sheared the head off a 3/8&#34; extension and nearly rounded out the 3/8&#34; opening on this filter wrench.
I already new what this one can do so, I'm not surprised .. use to put in all my car connectors to help keep away any possible moisture.
If you a Automotive DYI, you must have this Silicone Paste in your arsenal :).  I use it to lube brake caliper pins, spark plug wires and many many other things.  It is the best lube out there.
Like many of the other reviewers mention I started looking for this product after hearing about it on ETCG on youtube and it really does work fantastic. I have used it on many things with great success and recently lubed one of my Craftsman raised panel ratchets (which anyone who owns one knows has a very loud action) that now operates very smoothly!
I bought this because EricTheCarGuy on youtube highly recommends this product and uses it all the time. I lubricated my window run channel with this and lubricated the seat railings on a friends VW New Beetle, used this for brakes, you name it! It's a wonderful product and worth the price!!
Have not had good luck with other synthetic brake grease so decided to go with this 3M silicone paste.  Not sure if it is supposed to be bent but the stem on my brush was deformed about 30 degrees.  The silicone is very thick.  I've used it for brake caliper pin lubrication and also window slide lubrication.  I am sure I will find other uses.  I do wish this product came in a tube.  I find it hard to use and also to get all of the product out.
I was looking for long term, solid body grease on sliding parts of the truck, but not load bearing-such as wheel bearing which have its own requirements.This paste, from what I have been able to find, is not even for sliding parts, such as window regulator.  This is more to protect rubber seals and such, or as a dielectric protection.  For that, this probably rates 5 stars.I was trying to avoid white lithium because the spray I used on window smelled terrible for a long time.  I just bought a solid lithium which I hope does not smell.FYI, some people advise against using lithium on plastic.  CRC caliper grease says (I have the tube) safe on rubber and plastic.  I am also changing shifter bushings.
My a coworker recommended that I use this stuff to lube the caliper pins as this stuff does not dry out over time like other caliper greases. I've also been using this stuff on ignition cables with a little dip of this stuff around the boots of the coils and cables to keep them from sticking. This is pure silicone grease so it's non conductive.The actual item I got was very different than the image Amazon has posted here.
Love this stuff but remember to use it sparingly.  If you are skilled you can use this verse the clay-bar and get the same effect (don't press too hard and use a ton of water!)  I used this to refurbish headlights and take off minor scuff marks and hard to remove (stuck in the clear coat) debris.  Be ready with medium and fine Meg's, and then wax and polish after!
I got these to buff some metal parts to finish a mirror polish. Works awesome and gets that shine nice and strong.
I bought this to wet sand my car. It has worked well so far. The texture is like a sponge and I believe it can be used over and over again, unlike other sand papers. It's not really sand paper anyway, more like sand-cloth or sand-sponge.
i used this to get rid of a lot of deep scratches on one of my cars, where the scratch was deep into the clearcoat (the ones into the paint need more than this).it worked great, and the fine scratches and dullness created by it were readily buffed out with 3m rubbing compound. if you're trying to get rid of some stubborn scratches that rubbing compound can't quite get rid of, definitely try this!
This product is an excellent step up from rubbing compound where scuff marks need to be aggressively removed.  Specifically, I used this product on a Mercedes that had an unfortunate scrape with a wall in a labyrinthine parking garage.As the marks were long, thin and horizontal in nature, this product seems to be superior to rotary pads, some of which also contain 3M 3000 grit sand paper. In the cases where yellow safety paint was tattooed on to the car's paint, strips of the product can remove the undesired addition. Specifically, the user can apply direct pressure on the affected area with significant force generated by the user's thumb.The one attribute of the Trizact sandpaper was its lack of durability. On a relatively small project, the sponge-like paper was disintegrating. Clearly on larger projects, it would be cost prohibative.
This is great stuff. Actually it's only one thing. It's a foam pad that should be used as a final step. I follow it up with some Mother's wheel cleaner and I'm really happy. Just remember that you have to have a perfect surface before you use 3000 grit. This won't remove any imperfections.
Excellent extra fine sand paper! Use this to reduce fine scratches in paint before rubbing and polishing them out. Also used it to polish aluminum. Will buy again!
I used this after 2000 grit and I really like this.  It's basically a sponge with fine grit coated on it.  I put it on a sanding block and it worked beautifully.See photo's which will show a motorcycle tank after using this 3000 grit then "Adams Polishes" products 3 steps to get to a "corrected paint" finish.Needless to say, the owner of the tank which he painted himself was highly satisfied with the results.I liked this enough that I bought a second one!
Almost like using a leather belt on your knife blades, very handy to have around
Quality Product that is Simple and very Easy to install, and fits perfectly on my 09 Wrangler JK.  A must have for a jeep!
Fit well, a bit important to line them up perfectly thanks to the jeeps angles.  Removable logo, not melted in or painted on like some.
Received these right on time, I put them on myself (I'm a 54 yr old woman) just used blue painters tape to line them up correctly, took about 30 min. They look great!
The quality is great and construction is well done giving a perfect fit to the window frame.  The adhesive is strong and has held up.
Easy to install, works great.  Only issue I had was that they came in a relatively easy box, placed inside of a coffin sized box.  Came off the truck, I had no idea what was gonna be in it lol.
I was unable to install these so I had my local Chrysler dealership install them. I noticed that each front one is cracked, but too late to claim it. I had easier installs with WeatherTech
These are awesome. They were a snap to install and build quality is as expected. Rugged Ridge is quickly becoming one of my go to vendors for Jeep stuff.
Got this to tow my 28' travel trailer. Well made. Easy to  put together. Only thing I had an issue with is the bolts for the ball mount need to be torqued to 260 lb's and as most of us don't have a torque wrench for this application we'll need to ensure that it's done to manufactures spec - given it is critical for towing safety. Your local RV service center can do this for you. Mine did it for free, but it might cost you another 50 bucks to have it properly torqued.I do love it and I am VERY happy with the purchase. By far, based upon my research, this offers the best value for the tow and hitch weight. My brother-in-law has a $600.00 setup that for all intents and purposes is really not nearly as nice as this one. He helped me put it all together at his place and really like it.Works great with my Nissan Armada LE 4x4
This thing is heavy duty! It does include a SOLID shank and high grade bolts. The box was damaged when I received it but this thing weighs well over 75lbs total so the cardboard didn't stand a chance. All of the hardware was in a bag that was zip tied to something so nothing was lost or damaged.It took me about 1 hour to install on my 26' travel trailer, but most of that time was spent looking for an 11/32 drill bit to install the sway control bracket to the trailer. Other than that bracket, everything else is bolt on. The weight distribution clamps that bolt onto the trailer do not seem very tight when you tighten the single bolt against the tongue, but the instruction state this up front and assure you that it will be tight once you lock in the chains. I can attest that once the chains are lock in properly, they aren't going to move a bit.I have experience with much more expensive setups and I know believe that they are a waste of money for most people. If you have serious sway issues or you a tow a billion miles a year, a setup with built-in sway control instead of friction (like this one) may better fit your needs but I have no issues pulling my 26' TT with my 2006 Yukon Denali XL and this setup. Even though the Denali's air shocks level out the trailer, the Camco keeps it from porpoising (bobbing up and down) due to the soft ride shocks.
First time trailer owner and was given great advice.  The difference is amazing.  I would not tow without this set!
When I bought my 23' travel trailer I did not think I needed one of these hitches. I drive a diesel 2002 F350 with air bag helpers in the rear. I had owned a 34' fifth wheel that my truck pulled like a dream. I figured this little bumper pull would be no problem at all. Boy was I wrong. The front of my truck seemed to be gliding over pot holes and such like I was a giant ship in the water. Really uncomfortable at times. This hitch system really leveled things out. The whole setup seems smoothed out.
First of all... shank is included! This is incredible. What a fantastic buy. My rv dealer wanted $800 to install hitch, almost did.... This is a quality product... SUPER HEAVY! I could not recommend more. I have a 2007 Dodge 1/2 ton quad, and 27' Crossroad zinger. A crazy good buy.
Pro's-Easy to install with the right tools (specifically a drill bit that will allow you to drill 6 holes through the trailer frame for the anti-sway bar-Easy to hook up after the first time (the first time takes a little bit extra because you have to find the right height for the trailer to sit level with your vehicle)Con's-The brackets that stay on the trailer and have the chain connect to them are not very secure. While driving you have the weight of the bars holding them in place. If the trailer is not connected the brackets can become loose. They basically just sit over the fram rail and have a bolt on the back to tighten them in place. The bolt can work itself out over time. It also leaves a lot of wear marks on the frame from the bolt moving around while driving.-The drop bar that came with the set is perfect for an SUV or small truck (we used it on our 99 Suburban). When I sold the Suburban and got a 2001 F-250 Turbo Diesel I had to purchase a bar with the lower drop to get the trailer to sit level. The bar was an additional $100. My truck is not lifted or anything, it just sits higher than an SUV. Keep this in mind depending on what you are putting it on. Make sure to measure your hitch drop to make sure you get the right stuff up front.
If you have a trailer, spend the money and get this.  Even if you think you're fine without one, get one.  It helps with gas mileage, keeps your front tires on the ground, keeps the trailer from swaying like crazy when passing large vehicles. It makes towing so much safer.
I bought this to replace my lost O2 sensor socket. These worked great on my OEM O2 sensor and my UEGO wideband sensor I installed. Those things are expensive to replace so using the right tool makes it so you don't have to worry about rounding off the weak socket or stripping it. They also allow you to connect to a torque wrench and get the sensor to the proper torque specs.
Okay, got this kit when I replaced the oxygen sensor in my neighbor's 2003 Chrysler Town & Country LXi FWD 3.8L V6 OHV 12V.If you search for Standard Motor Products Oxygen Sensor http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000C81R0C/ref=wms_ohs_product) on Amazon, you'll read a more detailed account of how I used this kit in this application.Basically, the socket with the large opening was a lifesaver to install over the sensor, that was out in the open but inaccessible with a standard wrench, with the sensor wire though the slot. Got it out and back in quickly and painlessly.My application required a looong extension to reach the sensor that was down in the engine compartment, with a ratchet from over the top of the engine.
You just cannot go wrong for the money and with a storage case too. Do yourself a favor, save the extra twenty bucks on pretty much the exact same set and buy yourself this one.
It works and served the purpose to change the oxygen sensor.  It comes with different combination so even in the tight spot, I can still manage to remove the sensor.
The Oxygen sensor I needed to replace is located in the very beginning of the exhaust manifold (upstream). WIth the wires coming out of the plug a regular socket just won't work. Not enough space to try an adjustable wrench. These worked.
Has the sizes I need and seem well built. Do the job required of them and the case is decent for storage.
this appeared to be exactly what I was looking for.  It works as expected .  Time will tell about Quality.
This meter is very accurate and very readable, but just the slightest moisture Will ruin them. If you use them in A outside location, be sure they are behind glass or Plexiglas or sealed somehow. They consume very little Power, and look very nice. They're accurate enough to use to measure DC voltage.
Works great ,and is handy to read current levels in my batteries at night.Doesn't draw much power,so I leave it hooked up,except when it rains.
The rear of the meter is exposed and very sensitive to the elments. The Panel fell apart as I tried to install it. I do not understand why they do not install it into a plastic box even to be used in a panel a box would make it easier and less fragile to handle.
This is the product I placed in my review about battery box and 12v plug. I connect it to my solar, I can see what the voltage output is, quite elementary.Good Luck
Good price..delivered on time...able to extend wiring and hook to rv electrical....very low drag on batteries...would receommend ..no con's..only pro's
I am using this to monitor a solar charging station battery bank (12v system).- Meter is dead accurate (compared reading with my Fluke DVM)- It reads into the 1/100th decimal scale (best feature of the meter)- I leave on all the time...hopefully it lasts a long time- Price is good, 2-day Prime delivery is even better- Advertised dimensions are correctGreat little meter...should have bought two (one for a spare).
Out of 3 meters purchased I like this one the best. It is mounted in the cabin of my boat and I can easily read it during the day. One other that is mounted right next to it is so hard to read, I have to shade it carefully to even see it. I don't think you can go wrong with this one.
Mounted in a plastic box from Radio Shack this Panel Meter makes a good tool.A previous review has the dimensions and parts needed to put the 'box' together.Very satisfied with the performance of the meter, too.
Bought some of these for $6, some for $12. All are the same but the prices on them just keep skipping around like they are not sure how to sell them. They are functional, serve their purpose, but accuracy is about 5% off between all 5 I have. Not enough to be critical in a Wind and Solar set up.
i really like being able to see what my battery levels are. this was an easy install, combined with a switch, and the backlight is bright, which i appreciate.
This sticker makes zombies think your vehicle has already been hit so they pass you by.  Very effective at protecting your vehicle from intrusion.
I have a white truck with tinted black windows and  a lot of chrome.  I bought the Zombie Outbreak Response Team novelty license plate and then decided to purchase this bloody hand window decal to go with it.  It looks just like the picture.  The color stands out but isn't super bright and it has good contrast so you can tell what it is from a distance.  It's lasted a month so far without any discoloring or peeling.  For the price, if you wanna try it out, just wing it.
Made of good quality vinyl, the red is sufficiently bright whether in shadow or direct sunlight.  Seems to affix and hold well.  I'd buy again.
Great quality and I even got some awesome freebies with it! Months later and it's still bright red and going strong.
This one actually has instructions. Goes on quickly, about 30 seconds. No problems at all. Follow the instructions for a smooth application.
I bought this to diagnose and clear some codes on my 2003 New Beetle 1.8t.  The product worked great and is simple to use and told me plenty of information for each of the codes I needed to address.  I didn't expect the nylon zippered case but it is certainly a nice touch.I would certainly recommend this to anyone who owns a VW or Audi and wants to avoid paying $$$ for dealer diagnoses.
This worked very easily and googling the codes gave me a quick answer. It was a simple fix and cost me nothing. The dealership wanted to charge me $150 to do nothing more than DIAGNOSE the problem. The low price of this is WELL worth it. I am sure that every issue wouldn't be so easily resolved, but it saved me 7X its value.Other reviews said turn the car on, but the directions say turn off the car, plug in the Maxiscan and then turn the key on without starting the engine. It worked perfectly.I am a single mom with almost NO mechanical skills. I can't change a tire. I sweet talked and begged the tow truck guy change my battery because I couldn't do it. All of that and I was still able to use this with ease. A little research and fortunately the fix for the car was easy. Worth it worth it worth it!
Bought this for my 2009 VW because the dealership wanted $75 to diagnose. Turned out it was just a fouled spark plug and was able to do the whole repair myself. Definitely a money saver. Also works on all OBDII vehicles
Very powerful and easy to use.  Very expansive, you can check and reset just about every system.  Come with USB cable, so no need to buy separately.
Have a 2005 Touareg, dealer and small other repair shops wanted tons of money for checking the car. I used this, fixed some issues, and even cleared out codes. My kessy system was going bad, so I fixed the problem, before I did, I cleared out the code and it worked again!
These seemed great at first, but however after about 6 months of use I've had the rubber top part in the middle crack on two of them. I don't use them that much, and just for standard jack stands on my car. I have 3 different jack stand sizes, and this fit every one of them though, and even cracked I continue to use them the same. The description says &#34;lifetime guarantee&#34; so maybe soon I'll try to contact the manufacture and see what happens. Will update review afterwards.
these will fit your jack stands unlike other brands that are too small.They came with in 3 days and they are made well.
I use these on standard jack stands and they seem to work fine though they do not fit very snug but &#34;float&#34; around a bit.The depth fits well though they are wider than the jack stand so they fit a bit flimsy. Just be careful when placing the car on them...otherwise I am happy to have bought them
Why mar your frame on jackstands when these things are so cheap?  They are nice & sturdy without being too rigid where I would worry about cracking them.
These covers are nice and protect both the jackstands and car frame beautifully. They went on a little tight, but that is the ideal fit. Big plus was they are made in the U.S.A!
Well made, had to get something to protect the underside my side by side, even fit the new torin jack stands. tired of touching up paint just to keep the road salt off going to gas station in the fall & early winter. would recommend if you need a condom for your jacks ( for protection ) of your underside.  Made in USA.
I have a jack that is measured 3 5/8" x 1 1/8" and these Ernst pads fit the a bit loosely.  The material is hard but not as hard as the Prothanes I also have.  They do provide good support against where you are jacking.  Between these Ernst and the Prothane, the Ernst are more adaptable to fit more jacks because of their design.  The Ernst also come in 4 while the Prothane come in a pair, for about the same price.  It is best to take a careful measurement of your own jacks.  If yours are like my measurements, I think the Prothanes should fit better but if your dimensions are larger, then I think these Ernst pads are more forgiving and can adapt better to your jacks.Please click YES if my review have been helpful to you, it will encourage me to continue writing and updating my reviews, and leave a comment if you have any questions, I will be more than happy to answer if I can be of help.
Very sturdy materials, made to last and keeps the jack stands from damaging the pinch welds.  The way they are made allows them to be used with different style jack stands.
These are not cheap, these are well made and fit on my stands but have seen stands that they would not fit on (you may ba able to heat them with a heat gun and stretch them onto the stand?).
Collinite #845 is a quality product. Apply this product in a very thin coat after washing and decontaminating your vehicle. This wax is a combo of sealant/wax and is very durable. The synthetic wax repels water and has great beading.Prior to application I highly recommend following these instructions to make the wax the proper consistency: [...]This will allow the product to apply correctly to the paint surface. I also used a squeeze bottle instead of the Collinite bottle to regulate the amount of product applied to my applicator pad:Meguiars D9916 Dispenser Bottle Capacity
Very good paint sealant that is exactly as every raves about it to be. The applicator pad it comes with is also pretty nice!
Finally got myself a new car and needed to wax.  Didn't have good memories of waxing cars in my earlier years of life, felt more like torture with hard strokes and sore arms.  Did research and found this wax was fundamentally head and shoulders above anything in its price class.  Certainly held true - I quickly waxed my car down, buying a cheap package of disposable microfiber cloths on Amazon at the same time.  Wow was it so easy on my full size car. No issues with residual streak marks or haziness.  I'll be waxing regularly when it's this easy.
It really helps to keep the car safe from water and sun. It's easy to apply, feels oily, and the water goes away easily.
Bought this stuff after looking for a nicer wax than what I could get at the store and would last longer.  I was going to go with the next up Collinite but this was rated very highly and was said to be very easy to work with.  Honestly, the reviews were spot on.  This is some of the easiest wax I've ever worked with and seems to be a very good product.  Great wax for the price and forgiving too.
Bought this to make my cars shine. Easy to apply and easy to buff off.It really brings out the shine, especially on my black car and black truck. Even though they are 8 years old, this wax makes them look almost showroom new. The shine is that good. Try it. You won't be disappointed.
The wax went on easily and quite thinly (after warming it up per the instructions) and it buffed off very easily as well. It left a very nice shine but I was disappointed that it did not &#34;feel&#34; like you had put a coat of wax on the vehicle. There is almost no sensation of smoothness when running the back of your hand along a fender and a buff rag is not going to slide off the hood because of a light breeze. As I said before though, you can visually tell it's there and water beads nicely so time will tell if this is a great product or not.
Decided to give this wax a try as a friend had recommended it to me. I am now using on all 3 of my vehicles after a test period on one of my older vehicles. Still testing the duration of the wax for have only been using for about a month now but even if I had to reapply every 2 months I would be happy. The autos still bead water like I had just waxed them yesterday and I frequently was and clean my vehicles. It is a soft and very easy wax to apply and to take off making it a breeze to wax you vehicle. I have already placed an additional order for more wax.
Lasts about six months for me. Holds up pretty well in wintertime. Can be used as a one step product or part of a multi step process of your choosing. Pleasant smell and very easy to work with when brought up to the right temperature. It works really well when it is in a liquid or runny consistency. If the product is thick when you open the cap, put the bottle in the sun while you wash your ride. Will not take long to liquify this wax. You use less product and less time when you do it right.Shine is durable and beads up for several months. 4 mos is ideal but 6 months is acceptable for a time limit on this wax. Many friends now use this wax after watching me use this product. Money well spent.
I installed this easily on my '13 Wrangler. Yes, it is easiest to remove the spare tire and yes, you will need to grind some of the powder coat off to get a good ground. Neither were a big deal.  The manufacturer probably can't read minds and know exactly each persons setup, leaving the right amount of powder coat off, without it rusting before getting to the customer. To reduce the possibility of rusting while providing a good ground, I got a 99 package of the electrode lubricant at my local auto parts store. I put it on the area I ground down with my Dremel and am still getting good readings.
When I went to install this I just had a huge laugh at how insanely thick and solid this is.  It's not going anywhere and won't give you any bounce or flex.  It appears to be 1/4" steel.  Installs in three minutes.  You do need to scrape off some of the paint with sandpaper so your antenna mount can get a good ground connection.
My only complaint is that the bolts are silver in color, instead of black like all the other hardware on the Jeep.  Major oversight Rugged Ridge!  Heavy duty, nice wrinkle coat finish.  Mounts perfectly behind spare tire and the sliver bolts are not evident to the on-looker.  Nice clean, easy installation, positions the antennae perfectly to run the coax into the tailgate and through the hole provided by Jeep.  Very happy with the product.
The unit is very rugged and looks as if it will be around longer than I will be.  As others have stated, when mounted on the Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sport it is approx. 3 deg off of being completely horizontal.  But with the number of different models of jeep that are around it seems to be very close.  I was able to shim the antenna slightly and get it close to vertical.  As an engineer everything needs to at the correct orientation or it will bug me to no end.  But I am happy with the unit.  I would have been willing to spend slightly more money to get Rugged Ridge to have a unit that is adjustable and to have a grounding bolt as part of the unit.I know that the unit is also meant for flags, but I would think that since it is also sold as a CB antenna mount that the buyer would not have to sand off the powder coating to get a ground.
Bolts on easy enough.  Like others have mentioned it isn't &#34;level&#34; and your antenna will tilt.  Furthermore, any antenna I would have used wouldn't have cleared the stock Jeep spare tire so I had to make a modification (another bracket) to mount to this one.  If I had to do it over again, I would have just made my own bracket in the beginning.
Great antenna mount!  Very easy to install and really holds my Firestik antenna securely in place.  I highly recommend this to anyone with a newer Jeep wrangler.
keeps the back of my wrangler clean. has withstood gas and oil and simply hoses clean. carpet does not get destroyed by mud or snow after boarding. very happy with this purchase and fits very well in my 2010 jku
The Rugged Ridge black all terrain cargo liner is great for our Jeep Wrangler. I had to cut the marked area for the sub-woofer which was easy to do.
Working great for me.  Easy cut out for the factory sub with a pair of scissors.  Had a little rain get in and the liner held all of it.  Would definitely recommend.
I gave them three stars because of the flexibilty, it was just not there.  It had more of a plastic feel than a rubbery one. I should have purchased a rubbery one that would lay down better.  I'm sure I can deal with it but not what I expected. I have a 2010 JK Rubicon with a subwoofer so you have to cut out the corner which is outline to do this...must have a sharp utility knife.
This cargo liner is pretty heavy duty. It fits perfect, and while it is not quite as good as quality as other brands out there, its much cheaper. You aren't sacrificing too much quality for the price, so in that way it is worth it if you are looking to save a few bucks. Pattern looks sharp.
The mat looks and works great.  I can't see why I would spend more for other brands.  It looks sturdy enough to me time will tell.
this is a very nice product to help keep the jeep looking like new and protects and fits well for specif model
Easy fit.....just cut on the line and it drops right in....so far it has held up again the golf clubs and the bullmastiff....
Very sturdy and solid product.  As others have mentioned, the mat is more plastic feeling than rubber but over time (in the sun) I found that it lays down and softens up.  It does provide great protection and fits my 2012 JK Sport nicely.  My only complaint is that the cut-out holes don't align perfectly with the seat brackets and it bends/warps slightly when I fold my back seat up (not sure if its due to my neoprene seat covers or not).
I rarely have the seat in the back of my Wrangler, and this is a great option for when the bench seat is out.  It's easy to clean and it looks great.  I do wish it was somehow connected however.  I came out of a store one day, and some guy was looking in the back of my Jeep (topless) and commented on the cargo liner.  He then mentioned how easy it would be to grab and run off with it since the top was off.  He was a bit of a jerk, and I look around for his Jeep when I park at that same store now.
I would not say it worked great but it did work good. I oh mummed it  a couple of days trying to understand what I needed to do. I could not see the plug on my rear view mirror as it was really short. But tinkering with it a little bit each day and blowing on fuse in my truck. I got it done. Not to sure how I blew a fuse, but not a big deal. Don't let that make you nervous as I was doing something else playing with the cigarette lighter when it happen.If I were to do it over again, I would go with the direct wire, take it down to the fuse box.Everything works and I am happy.
Works great and looks great. Keeps all of the clutter off of your dashboard and make your RD look professionally installed. Takes a bit of electrical ability or you can simply take it to your dealer to install for you. It will take him about 2 minutes.
This is the second one I have ordered/used.  This item works great and minimizes all that wire clutter that using the cigarette lighter causes.  Only issue is the fact that it is a bit pricey (why I didn't give it 5 stars.)
Hook this bad ass wire to your bad ass valentine one hanging on a bad ass Blendmount mount.5 bad ass stars
I didn't use an electrical tester, nor do I own one. I'm not a mechanic or super techy person...however I can tell you that I had this thing installed and working in less than 3 minutes! Could not have been easier...follow the instructions, there were zero tools required, just stick the probes into the back of your powered rear view mirror plug, and done!  My radar detector turns on when the ignition of the vehicle is on and turns off when I shut down so I never have to mess with turning it on/off...or cords going down to the cig lighter or elsewhere in my view.  Highly recommend !!
I got these little ones to replace the lights on the Sun Visors for my 2013  charger. First thing is these are about 1-2cm longer than the stock  which makes a difference. Pushing them was hard at times and you have to put quite a bit of pressure. Once they are in though be careful. These things are bright as heck and I was momentarily blinded by them.They had me seeing spots. So good thing about them is they work and they are a nice cool white color. Bad thing is they are now so bright its hard to look in the mirror without being blinded a bit. You can stare directly at the direction of the lights or they will hurt your eyes.
used in 2002 ford econoline vanity mirror lights, super bright and white. use with confidence, better price than any auto store
These are very bright.  My Honda Pilot allows 2 bulbs per visor.  I only put one LED in each visor since they were so bright.  They're bright enough if you need to use your visor as a reading light.
I got them for my Acura MDX 2009, and these are the best LEDs you can get for you vanity mirrors.  My wife is so happy she now has white lights in her mirror. Also, they are sooo easy to install, just plug and play!!  nice!
Used in my 2010 Nissan Altima 4dr.These bulbs are BRIGHT, end of story! For the $$$ you just cannot go wrong.
Replaced the courtesy mirror incandescent bulbs in my 2013 Subaru Legacy with these LEDs.  They are an exact fit, and are VERY bright, with a very slight blue tint. I would describe them as about 6500K in color.  They are bright enough that if you are driving at night, you don't want to accidentally flip up the vanity mirror  because you will loose your night vision.  Otherwise, they are much better than the dim yellow light provided by the incandescent bulbs.
I like these, they are much brighter than stock.  They put a a slight white-bluish hue but it's still much better than stock.
This gauge is top notch very good quality feels good in hand should last a long time as long as you dont run it over.. HA
This works great and seems to be accurate compared to my other gauges. The only weird thing is that the pressure gauge itself runs off of a small button cell battery (included) but the light runs off AAA batteries (not included).
Gauge is simple in construction and is simple to use. It is doing what I bought it to do.Quality of construction appear adequate.
The gauge is good quality and construction. I love the lighted tip and backlit display as it makes working in poorly lit areas a breeze. One minor complaint is that the unit turns off too quickly in my opinion. I know the feature is to save battery but it does get annoying to have to keep turning it back on after filling the tires with a compressor. All-in-all, this is a great product that I would buy again if I had the chance to do it over.
Works dang good, has light at end for seeing yourself to the tire stem. Has backlit screen showing tire pressues in lbs or other increments. Cuts off after a minute or so or you can hold down and turn off. So far has been better than most Accuair gauges.
This is one little unit that does exactly what it say it will do. Very easy to operate and as far as I can tell, is quite accurate.  Since I am pulling a 38' 5th wheel, knowing the air pressure in both the truck and trailer tires is really important. This device makes the process very quick and easy.
This has other measurements other than psi that get my way but it appears to work alright, have to toggle between BAR, PSI and etc. not dig'n that a lot but it's ok, do like the idea it lights up
In my garage my wife's SUV's left rear door hits the left front fender of my car with the very corner which is above the wheel, and I already have 4 dents to remember my wife by.  To avoid the 5th dent I decided to try this film.The film softens the hit, but, I think, there is still a very good possibility that the door's corner will make that dreaded fifth dent in my fender.  Basically, the film protects the door edge from chipping, but does very little to protect another vehicle's body in cases when your car's door hits another car.  I think that, unfortunately, no matter how much I dislike those short fat tube looking door edge guards, I will have to get one of them for my wife's SUV to protect my car.On the positive side, the film was easy to apply, just make sure to clean surfaces first.  However, it is quite expensive at ten bucks for two doors.As a note, both of our cars are black, so I do not think it is an issue for us, however, based on my experience with clear door guards and any "stick-ons" to the car, I am pretty sure the film will accumulate dirt around the edge and the outline will become visible on a light colored vehicle.  Also, if the film yellows from sun and weather (like headlight lenses for example), it will look terrible on a light colored car.Overall, albeit expensive, this is a good way to protect your car's door edge, if this is all you need.
Asked my electric guy to apply and he did it wrong thinking that it is not that wide, this one looks like as if it is 1/2&#34;.On a video they demonstrate much wider film. I had it applied properly on second door but not sure if it will stick there.
Applies very easily as long as you clean the surface real well and do the job in an enclosed environment (garage).  Wouldn't dare try outdoors since even a gentle breeze could tangle up the tape rendering it useless.  Those wondering how invisible it is - well, try sticking a piece of clear packing tape to your car and see how that compares as this is essentially what it is, just much thicker, stickier, and doesn't curl up so easily.  Beware that if you apply to rear doors, since most cars are very curvy today the standard length for passenger cars might not be long enough.  Front doors are okay though.  Overall, remains to be seen how effective some thick packing tape on the door edge will hold up over wear and tear with car washes, weather, and such.
I've had it on now for a few weeks. Hard to say if it works because I had no knicks along the door to begin with so all I can say is it still has none. Only a long time will tell if it keeps working but I can say that it sticks well, even after going through the automatic car wash with it's big brushes several times and is clear so you don't notice it is even on the car, my car is white and I never notice it at all. It was easy to put on by myself and I'm not that handy with these sort of things.
I own a fleet of vehicles and they sometimes get parked VERY CLOSE together. This film is easy to apply to clean door edges. I love that it helps to prevent chips as well, as I have a car with a few chips. For the price, you really can't go wrong, this is a must have for my vehicles!
Not bad - does the job would be nice to have a bit wider sizes&#8230;can be a little tight to put on.  But seem to work well - durably made. Will protect.  A little tough not to show on a black car.
These are easy to use. We applied them to my Vintage Lincoln sedan. It is black in color, and these work perfectly. They've already prevented at least one door from chipped paint along the edge.
The saying you get what you pay for fits. This is an expensive solution to protecting your door from chipping. How it works is you put a strip of semi-adhesive material along the edge of your door. It's not like packing tape but more rubbery. The problem with this is yes it will protect the edge of your door from paint flaking off if you ding it, however this won't protect your door from dents or larger dings like the thicker, rubber trim will that you can buy. So yes this will work to keep the paint in place and provide a bit of protection, but in my opinion this really isn't worth the money, it provides too little protection.I applied it to a Honda ridge-line truck, I have 4 doors and only got one set so 2 doors are protected, 2 are not. It's important you clean both the front, edge and back side of the door where the film sticks otherwise it will fall off.Once applied the film blends so you can hardly see it's on.Now I am not going to ding my door to test this, but from initial inspections it doesn't look like it does much good. It's like putting laminated piece of paper on your stomach and then getting hit. You are still going to feel it, its still going to damage but it will soften the blow....a little....It's a nice idea but for me this should be marketed as a "as seen on TV" item for those late night TV shoppers. It's a novelty item to give you the illusion of protection. If you want real protection you need something thicker and more substantial.
If you want max protection from major slams, this product is not for you. But if you want something that is nearly invisible and will protect your paint from chips due to careless door opening this fits the bill nicely. It's just a heavy strip of clear plastic with maximum stick adhesive. Installation, no prob, go slowly and peel as you go to a clean door edge and you are done. It stretches a little so you can turn slightly without wrinkles. I find doing the outside in it's entirety first, then folding it over the edge second, gives the best results.It's no intellectual dilemma, if you buy this don't expect it to protect your paint when you slam your door into a stucco wall. But if you only slightly bump into a lawn mower in your garage it it serves quite nicely.
Be clear on what this is.  It is - essentially - a tape that goes along the outside vertical edge of your door.  It does not protect you from dents or door dings from other cars.  If you park in a garage with cinderblock walls (like I do) then this will keep you from chipping the paint on the edge of your doors.  Application is fairly straight-forward - clean the paint first.  Once properly applied, you really can't see it too easily.  One word of caution; dont apply it in the cold - warm up the strip before applying it.
My previous experience with door edge guards is with plastic U-channels that slide into position on the edge of a car door. Those work well, but are highly visible (ugly.)This product is more like a thick semi-sticky plastic tape. It isn't all that hard to apply properly, but does require SOME skill. My first mistake was in only cleaning the outside of the car door beforehand. Since the tape is intended to fold over and also stick on the inside edge of the door, that too must be well cleaned beforehand. Once that was done, my results were excellent, in a total time of under 10 minutes. If you look very carefully from a few feet away the tape is barely visible - further away, it's entirely unnoticeable to me. Good to know my car doors are now invisibly protected.Other pointers:1) don't install over a sharp bend in the door. The tape is forgiving of minor changes in direction, but has nowhere to go in a 90 degree bend. I solved that by starting below that bend, which is fine as the tape still covers anything that might hit another object as the door opens.2) If you need to shorten the tape (as I did), you may find it easiest to cut at a 45 degree diagonal from both directions, and then finish with a 90 cut between the diagonals - in other words, in the shape of 3 sides of a stop sign. That more easily approximates the rounded edge of the original tape.3) If you care about existing nicks in the door edge, fix those first. As my 2002 Prius is a decade old this month, I didn't bother.Finally, if your car has 4 doors, you'll need two of these kits.
We chose 3M 08582 36" Door Edge Protection Film for our 10 year old Dodge Grand Caravan which is still in great shape. The product was easy enough to install after cleaning and drying the door edges, and it seems to stick nicely with a quality feel to it. The one thing I will say is that this does not look like it will protect against anything more than very minor dings and scrapes when opening your door. If you swing your door open and hit something full force, this will most likely not protect against damage from that. Still, if you're concerned with the possibility of minor scruffs, this may provide you some piece of mind.Is this necessary for most vehicles? Probably not, as long as you're careful opening your car doors. If you really want this type of protection, understand that this is a quality product but not a miracle worker and you should be satisfied with your purchase.
When my wife bought a new Honda Fit earlier this year, we had asked the dealer to install door edge film. Afterward they said it looked awful, took it off and refunded our money. I still wanted protection, not only for her car but also mine, so I bought the 3M kit here. I just installed the film on both cars and am absolutely delighted. The film installed very easily and conformed to bends and even tight curves in the door edge. If you're more than a few inches away, you can't see it at all. The film is thick and resilient and should do well to protect the door edges against nicks and scrapes.
Looks ok, and stays on. I haven't banged by door yet so I can't comment on the quality of protection, but it sure gives me a piece of mind the next time someone decides to be careless with opening my door.
I like the look of it but it fits loose and I had to use zip ties so it wouldn't flap around when Im riding.
the material seems durable, if it breaks down ill repost...simple, and roomy.  Straps are what you would expect. simple straps.I think it could use an addtional strap to hold the bottom end in place...It should be said the size indicated is wrong.14x4x4" but in actuality it is 14.25x3.75x5.5, the first 2 measurements being within an reasonable amount of error is fine by me, but the last 5.5 tall when i thought 4, just didn't allow me to mount the bag where i thought i could.And being that i dont like bags hanging off my chopped down bobber as it is, i didnt like having to mount it in an more open space, that and it being any larger than i thought it was left me a bit disapointed...None the less, so cheap and decently made, its not going back...I dont want to detract from the bag just becuase the size is wrong, but i dont know if this deserves the 4 starts i gave it... it was good enough to keep, and at this point i cant identify a flaw... so
I bought this bag due to the high ratings.  I received the bag yesterday and not really amazed by it.  It says leather "Shell" but I doubt it.  It doesn't feel or looks like a real leather to me.  It looks a lot rougher than it shows in the picture.The original plan was to put it on the fork on my 04' VTX1300c but it doesn't work.  I don't blame the bag because it clearly states that it is for handle bars.  But the bag is pretty big to go on the handle bars.  I could easily put an Arizona Ice tea can in it with some extra space.  So I ended up putting it on the back of the sissy bar.Pros:- Big- Sturdy- Low PriceCons:- Very stiff (like plastic stiff)UPDATE (9/17/2013)After using it for about 15 miles on the sissy bar, it scratches the pain of my fender because of the hard material they call "Leather".  See the Pictures that I put up.
I wanted this on my handlebars but would not fit, I mounted on the windshield above the headlight. It looks good and fits my wallet, phone, gum, lock, and sunglasses case and it is full. Hope it last, quality seems decent.
This made of a somewhat cheap material, but it seems good enough to keep using. I use it for a padlock, gloves, a couple bungees, and cigarettes, so it's not huge. Would also work to fit an emergency tool kit with just a few wrenches and a pair of pliers.
I liked this so much that I ordered a second one for my other bike. It's large enough to carry the tools I need. I found it is better to use zip ties instead of the leather straps that come with them when you attach them to the handle bars.
The straps that connect it to the handle bar are included. The bag itself is solid and well made, but the connecting straps are too thin compared to the solid construction of the bag. This bad is not made to go behind a windshield because of where the buckles are placed.
This is NOT a leather item.  It's pretty much 100% synthetic.  The photo in the add is clearly a leather pouch, but the one i got in the mail is definitely not.That being said, it's OK and it's a good value for the $12 I paid.  I'm going to mount it on my bike and just be happy with it.
Looks great ..easy to mount..I put it on my rack..very convenient...matches my saddle bags on my Yamaha Vstar 1100.
Not the thickess leather handlebar bag I've seen, but for the price if I get two or more years use out of it I'm way ahead
I bought for use on a Honda VTX1300c. It works well even though the attachment straps aren't quite at the right lcoation for my handlebar configuration. I do recommend it though. It has nice straps on the fron and appears to be well built. I've had it on my bike for about 200 miles thus far.
Don't purchase this item the straps that hold it to your handlebars are so thin you find your tool bag flying away. Also don't place items in this bag you want there is no way to secure it from anybody from opening it unless you wrap it with a chain and lock. Go to your nearest Motorcycle Store and purchase your moneys worth and know you stuff is secure when you are away from your bike.
Great tool bag. How ever i found the leather to be a little bit hard. I didnt use it long before I removed it but maybe it will soften up after a few or many opeaning and closings.
This is a five star SH-BARBAG Black Fuel Handlebar Bag. Very nice and ridgid. Opens easily. Just an all round nice bag. I dont know if it is leather or not, but It looks like it is. Nice 5 stars to this vendor. Thanks AJL
Added this to my Honda CT90 Trail bike's handle bars.  Now everyone calls it my 'purse'.  Looks pretty gay and will go with a pink helmet....
The gauge is accurate and it speaks the truth! Kinda fun and it doesn't cost much more than the mute version. I compared this gauge to a theoretically much more accurate gauge and the results were identical (i.e., within 0.5 psi - the resolution of this gauge). Get one and amaze the wife and kids. Well, maybe not amaze but perhaps amuse; at least for a few seconds.
This item serves it's purpose.  You have to be careful to get a good fit over the tire valve, but then that is also necessary with traditional gauges.  The numbers are easy to read and I have no problem clearly hearing the voice telling the pressure even when not  wearing my hearing aid.  It is plastic and I think it could easily be broken if one is not careful, but that is workable.  A friend liked mine so much that they immediately ordered one for themself.  Highly recommend.
This is a good digital tire pressure gauge. Mostly plastic which makes it a kuttke ddifficult to get on the valve and it may not be all that accurate.
You get what you pay for.  The talking is probably unnecessary, but the price was right and it works fine.
Only 4 stars because:The language toggle button is right where you press with your thumb on the handle to press this gauge into the tire's valve.  Also, it doesn't curve enough to get quite in between the tire spokes of motorcycle wheels
If you get tired of trying to guess what your tire pressure is with the manual guages, this tool is for you. Works great.
I bought this on a whim because the new tire pressure monitors in newer model cars can put a scare in you,sometimes arbitrarily.(tire pressure drops in ratio to lower temperatures).I have a hard time reading the old gauges,& sometimes affixing them properly to the valve stem.Happy to say this little gem is easy to attach,reads PSI accurately & clearly. I calibrated it & It's fine out of the box.Batteries are cheap enough.Don't know the life expectancy,but most gauges do act up in time.I am going to buy a few for stocking stuffers,especially for my older friends and my &#34;girls&#34;.Highly recommend
It is accurate to within .5 PSI.  It announces the tire pressure and is easy to attach. I checked all four tires and the spare. Now satisfied all tires have the same recommended pressure. It announced the pressure in either English or Spanish. Now I can throw away my old pencil gauges that were notoriously inaccurate.  I like it.
I do wish the reach brush was a little stiffer.  That being said I am extremely happy with the way the work.  My wheels, tires, and inner fender well come out clean with minimal effort
Nicely made with quality material and workmanship.Very good ergonomic with soft rubberized grip that is not slippery when wet.Stiff bristles with soft split ends produce no scratches and allows effiecient transmission of your elbow grease to the cleaning surfaces.All three different size and length should take care of all yourtire and wheel  cleaning needs.
If you are looking to buy these brushes it is CHEAPER to purchase them SEPARATELY then buy them in this kit.DO THE MATH AND SAVE SOME $$$$$
Great stuff, strong and durable, definitely a bargain when compared to what stores are selling them for individually.  The brissles are strong enough to remove everything, but soft enough they wont scratch stock wheels.  I would recommend using a microfiber mit to do any chrome or high dollar rims but for tires or running boards these are perfect.
These are matched well for tire and wheel cleaning. I also used the long brush with soft bristles to scrub the plastic splash guards on each end of the car and the wheel splash guards. Saves getting my wash mitt as dirty .  Bristles are long enough they worked very good on the rims, plus the short brush has stiff bristles for the sidewalls. Good buy.
It cleans tires very well. Kind of tough to get into all wheel wells, especially if it's a lowered vehicle with not enough of a gap. The rim brush doesn't scratch any of the rims that I have cleaned (chrome, aluminum, etc). I did have to purchase wheel woolies to get into the tighter places around some rims.
I like the fact that these have a threaded screw mechanism with a large paddle knob on the back in order to adjust the tightness in which you use them. This allows for a variety of materials to be used and accounted for. Other cover clips such as the ones that my brother has are made of a rubbery type of material, and consist of a circle with an inner circle that "snaps" in to hold the material. I italicized the snaps because the plastic is flexible enough to consider it being squished in instead. These Pro Grips are made of tough hard plastic. You could flatten a dime with these suckers. :-) Ok that is an exaggeration but you get the idea, they are made of tough hard plastic and should give you a lot of years of use.The other thing worth mentioning is the multilayer serrated teeth that make up the teeth. With about a whole one eighth of an inch opening or more this enables you to multi-fold the material that it is holding, or to be able to supplement the material with a secondary material designed to protect your tarp. The footprint is smaller however, but when you consider how small a grommet is which is the customary method for securing tarps these things are huge.With the closed ring on the back, something you can easily tie a cord onto, or use a rubber tie down with that makes these all the more desirable. The ones my brother has and is using over his classic Miata right now only have a half loop, with one side open. Considering how soft the material is that is a much weaker system than these Pro Grips have with as they put it "Prehistoric holding power".So that about sums it up. I find the convenience, holding power, and adjust ability to accommodate different types of material the shining stars on these tarp clips. The face or mouth could be even larger but the existing size will suffice for most jobs. Highly recommended.
I keep finding ways use these and had to buy a second set.  Newest set is holding the top on my gazebo through the tropical weather we get in Florida.
We used these to hold down the cover on my car that was stored under the car port.  We attached these to the cover near the wheels and then ran a bungee cord under the car to the hook on the other side.  They're holding on really good and we don't have to worry about the cover blowing off anymore.For what they are these are really good and I can say they work.
At first blush I did not think much of these but was I ever wrong, big time.  These little ProGrips really know how to hold them.  Simply unscrew the "fin", place the folded tarp material (it helps if an edge is used with the sewn hem included in the fold for security purposes) in the jaws, tighten and repeat on another edge close to the corner.  Use a decent quality tie-down rope or strong rope material.I tested the Clips with my riding mower covered with good old blue tarp material.  The winds and rain beat the daylights out of the tarp and the ProGrips held as if they were a part of the mower.  The mower did not get wet and the Clips held without permitting water or wind to get in.  The metal corner holes in the tarp are useful and ProGrips add to the product in an even better way by allowing the tarp to be tighter on the covered object.
I have a large tarp that I use for various tasks.  It has gromets around the edge that give me lots of places to tie it down.  However, those gromets are never in precisely the right place.  These "shark cover clips" work perfectly.  You use a thumbscrew to form a pressure clamp on the tarp, and the end has a loop that you can use for a bungee or (thin) rope.  These work especially well if your tarp has a seam at the edge and you can get the clamp to fit inside the seam (so the seam provides a bump past which the tightened clamp cannot get over).I found the tightening mechanism to work well.  It has held up on one rain storm without ill effect.  My only concern is how well the plastic will hold up over time (sun, freezing temperatures, rain, etc.)
I frequently go camping with my kids (BSA).  One thing we always try to do is stay dry.  We usually succeed.  I like to use a fiberglass tarp over the tent to add that extra layer of "waterproof".  You can use the grommets to tie string to the tarp but sometimes you need a fastener where this is no grommet.  That's where these come in.There is a clamp on one end and a sturdy loop (for cord) on the other end.It is easy to use - just open the clamp, slip over the tarp and close the clamp.The clamp has "teeth" and a wider opening to accomodate the cord that is usually at the edge of most tarps.The clamp is very sturdy and will not come loose.Then you can use the loop to put cord or a bungee through and anchor to a tree or the ground.The material is very sturdy and to my eyes will not break.These will be very handy on most campouts, and could be useful at home if you have a car you want to cover or some other item to be covered by a tarp!
I really like these tarp cover clips. The jaws open wide enough to slip over the welting on the edge of some covers and you can double up the tarp for a stronger grip. They are easy to tighten and can be tightened very snugly. The only thing I don't like is the pointy end but I'm hoping these don't pop loose and cause any damage. Overall very good tarp clip for static holding of a tarp or cover. However, I would not recommend using them to hold a boat cover (or similar) while driving down the road, I don't think they will hold well enough against the wind.
Great hard and thick plastic grips for holding down a tarp. They're stronger than a tarp so should hold up well. I had been using a type where you slide a lever to close the gap but this screw type should make a better grip and easier to get it tight.
I ordered this vest in XL it says XL but its sized so small. It actually is a medium. If your going to order this vest make sure the size you order is three times what you normally wear. ORDER LARGER. I ordered it so I can wear a hoodie under it and there is no way it would ever fit.
Vest was well made.  However, the XL size I ordered was more like a medium.  I normally wear size large, so I figured I would order an X-Lg and have some extra room for winter shirts.  This thing fits like a medium.  Can't even snap it.  Lucky I had a friend that wanted it.
Excellent vest for the price but sizes run VERY small. I normally wear an LG to XL shirt and ordered a 2X vest. It fit but just right...no spare room. Order a larger size and you will be very happy.
Very well made and priced right. This is REAL leather NOT patch leather. It is very good quality and soft enough to be comfortable. You will not find a better leather vest in this price range.
I love the quality and construction of this vest!  HOWEVER, the sizes are NOT true at all!!!  They don't just run small, they run ridiculously small!!!  I mean, a 4XL is too small for someone who wears XL...  My 4XL fits my daughter who wears a womens medium!  It really turned out to be a waste of time; especially, when I wanted the vest for this weekend.
I ordered a larger size as everyone said in their review to do, however this was so small I gave it to my son. If you wear a XL order a XXXL minimum, It may fit.
Been using many filters for many years, some never will be seen in my cars nor friends. I think you will never go wrong with K&N products!
I have now switched over 3 motorcycles,  3 cars and 1 truck to K&N oil filters. The ones for the motorcycles work well with the OEM Kawasaki oil that I also wrote a review on and the ones for the 4 wheel vehicles will be using a popular brand of synthetic oil in conjunction with K&N.
This brand is very good and I highly recommend this filter for your next oil change. It spins on like it's supposed to and apparently does the job.
Made a side by side comparison with the oil filter previously on the car and this is definately a great quality item.  for the price its a must get.
I have no complaints that I can think of. I reserved 1 star because it wasn't anything particularly special about it. I liked that I got it free shipping 2 days and Amazon validated that it is the right one for my car.
Fits right on my miata and it's a k&n, had the nut off one before but this one is fine to get off. For a wash and waxer like my self it works great
I use this filter on my Nissan and Honda.  Fits just like the factory filters I use.  No leaks, no issue.
Great price for K&N brand. I am confident that Amazon has better price compare to local auto parts stores. It fits my Acura Tsx 2007.
I've been using K&N filters for years and this size fits all of my Honda cars. I use the HP-1010 with the nut on the housing on my Miata because it is a tight squeeze in the engine bay and I can use a standard wrench instead of an oil filter wrench for it. However, my Honda cars have more room for this filter, so I use this PS-1010 which is several dollars less for exactly the same thing. This is top-of-the-line quality. Highly recommend.
Very well made quality product, been using it for years and never had a problem, went 150 Mph in one car with one and worked fine, don't recommend you do that unless legal. If your filter is mounted in a weird spot then you can go for the HP version that has a nut mounted on the end of the can.
I love K&N products and I am slowly switching all my cars over to their line up of oil filters for all my cars and also my 3 motorcycles . I may pursue to see if I can find one to fit my lawn tractor. Good quality.
Hard to tell how well it is working, but this was an easy install and fit two different kinds of Honda autos.  The product seems nice and solid.
The K&N; website wording characterizes both the PS and the HP series filters as premium, but the PS series is certainly NOT a premium filter at all.The metal in the housing is thinner, its diameter is smaller, the flow-holes around the central mounting hole are smaller, and the width of the sealing gasket is not as wide. There is a sloppy amount of glue between the base plate and the outside housing. The term "contractor grade" came to mind as being a cheaper, barely functional product designed for a jobber, not the end-user with an eye on quality.I've asked K&N; to consider changing the wording of their product description to more accurately reflect the inferior quality of this filter compared to the HP-series.Since I don't need the HP series "nut" on top of the filter, I thought I'd save a buck or two on a filter of equivalent quality otherwise.  Poor economy.-----------UPDATEI've received satisfactory responses from K&N; staff in their marketing and in their consumer affairs departments. I identified myself as a longtime customer and expressed disappointment that the "PS" series failed to live up to expectations.  Based on their subsequent communications with me I remain a loyal customer.
Use these all the time.  Good filter product.  Look up the filter comparisons on You Tube to see the difference.
K&N makes excellent oil filters and is one of two or three quality brands like Wix and Bosch I generally buy for my vehicles. When deciding between them I shop for price.
I recently changed my oil for the first time with this oil. I ended up using about 4.0 litres of it in my 2012 TDI oil change. So far so good, meaning the engine is running normally without seizing. This oil appears to have a good reputation on the TDI forums and the Bob is the oil guy forums. When purchased with Amazon's subscribe and save it comes to a very reasonable price for full synthetic oil that only needs to be changed every 10000 miles/16000 kms. It's hard to find the proper 507.00 approved oil in retail stores, so buying it from Amazon is super easy. So far I've ordered 2 cases of it, and no leaks in either order.
Oils meeting VW spec 507 are few and far between. I had this oil analyzed (along with the VW Dealer sold Castrol SLX), and this oil has a stronger base stock & additive pack. Won't disappoint.
This oil arrived and is consistent with the advertising on the webpage. I am very happy with the oil. I will be purchasing my motor oil from Amazon again in the future.
i bought this for my 2011 Jetta Sportwagon TDI, which requires the VW 507 spec oil to protect the emission controls system.  The oil arrived well packaged, no leaks, no damage.  Poured it in, and I'm done.This is a good price for this specification oil, and you get 6 quarts when others for the same price only sell you 5 liters.I'll buy this again.
I use this in the 03 regal with 150K on the motor. I started using this product about a year ago and I change my oil every three months which is over kill for this oil but I want to try and get every mile I can out of this car and the car is still running great and there is no reason that I can see at this point that I wont be going over 200K easy on the car. This oil comes out nice and dark every time meaning it is doing its job by suspending the dirt and crud so it's not building up in the motor. Car purrs so nice after each oil change you can tell things are nice and slick inside.
Great oil to drowned yourself in, multi purpose is a great thing and this weight of oil is perfect for so many things. So lube yourself up today.
Meets VW502.00/505.00/505.01 requirements so it definitely suits my VW 2.0TFSI. Smoother, quieter and cheaper than mobil 1 0w40 or castrol edge 5w40. This could probably be the best non-ester lubricant i have ever used (previous oils were amsoil european formula, castrol edge, VW special plus, mobil 1, schaeffer). Give it a try, you won't regret it.
Don't get me wrong, this is a great oil if you need a VW 502 spec. However, a 5qt jug of Mobil 1 0w-40 (also 502 approved) can be had at Walmart for half the price.
I changed the oil on a Dodge Caravan. So far it's been driven 2000 miles and the motor is running smooth. The Van was running rough prior to this oil change. Thank you
Use it for my Lotus Elise.  No issues and seems like a high quality. Would buy it again.Price was good through amazon.
Pennzoil Ultra is the company's top of the line motor oil.  Shell, parent company of Pennzoil, engineered this 5w-40 European Full Synthetic product to meet the tough European Specifications.  Indeed, you would be hard pressed to find a common late model gasoline European vehicle that is not covered by this product (always double check though).Its approvals include Mercedes-Benz 229.5, BMW LL-01, Porsche A40, Ferrari, Maserati, Fiat, VW 505.00, and VW 502.00.These specifications all speak to the quality of the product. In particular, Mercedes-Benz 229.5 (used in the majority of gasoline engine Mercedes cars the past decade) is particularly tough to meet.In normal operating conditions, when you have a European vehicle, an approved oil allows you to comfortably run the full oil change interval recommended by your manufacturer.  Some of these European manufacturers have very long oil change intervals, which is why the correct oil with a strong additive package is so very important.Due to licensing, very few products meet current Ferrari specifications in North America.  This is about your only choice if you have a Ferrari in North America (you must be very happy if you have that Ferrari), and that specification sets this product apart from its rival European products from Mobil and Castrol which do not meet Ferrari spec.  The technical specs are all impressive.  This product has a very low NOACK volatility and proper viscosity for the majority of European vehicles in most climates.This is a highly recommended product. Depending on price and your personal preferences, Mobil 1 0w-40 is another terrific option that meets most of the same specifications besides Ferrari, Maserati, and Fiat.
This &#34;Neoprene Red Thermal Fleece Face Mask&#34; fits well on son's huge head and has made the seemingly never ending Winter somewhat more tolerable when he has to shovel the absurd amount of snow we were graced with this year. This did have a bit of a chemical smell, but it dissipated fairly quickly when left to air out on the front porch for a day or two.The mask fastens with Velcro and fits tightly around the chin and mouth but is a little loose above the nose, which can cause his glasses to fog up from his escaping breath. The mask does make a big difference in comfort and the bright red color is reassuring as it would be easy to see if should get accidentally trapped in one of the huge snow drifts that has accumulated in our yard.Recommended!CFH
My Fleece Mask keeps my face warm in cold days that I have to ride my motorcycle. I would recomend it to all my riding budies. I don't have a problem with the fogging of my wind shield on my helmit or shades. The mask is soft and made of good quality. This product is money well spent.
I do not wear a full face helmet, don't even like them.  They seem to take away from the ride,  like wearing a hat in a convertable car. So this works great keeping the wind off you face even at higher speeds.  Nose holes had to be enlarged for my big nose and you still get alittle wind at the corner of my eyes and made my eyes water alittle at 23 degrees. The red matches my bike.
I like this item but originally missed the reviews that noted that the shipping speed is really slow, at least from the vendors that seem to be higher up on the lists here.The item is as promised but standard shipping speed is really, really, really slow.  I didn't upgrade the shipping service, so I can't comment on whether or not doing so would result in more reasonably quick receipt of this item but anyone ordering it should be aware that it can take a very long time (relatively) to receive.Beyond the shipping speed issue and more directly related to the item be aware that this item has a distinct odor that will take some time to disappear.  That can be resolved by opening the package the item ships in and leaving the item out where it can air out.  Don't expect that process to be quick either as it may take several days (more likely weeks) for the smell to wear off.Once the item has aired out sufficiently it should work well for several years if it is treated reasonably well.
-Used this in two of my car interiors, lexus and murano.-Nice cool white color, but there is a slight, nearly unnoticeable blue to it.-I have tried others ranging from ebay(its a gamble), superbright leds(great product but pricey), to vleds(medicore/good) and this ones is up to par and much cheaper, esp for a packet of 4.A couple bugs with led for car int..-Based on my experience, led's have different levels of pulsing (when the car engine is on) from diff brands, but this one has very minimal pulses and nearly unnoticeable. I am guessing that this is the norm for cars that are designed to light up the interior with halogens and I rather not invest too much finding the perfect bulb.-The fade in/out feature for interior lights, while locking/unlocking the vehicle, can get a bit choppy with certain cars that is not designed for leds. Example: the lexus light fade in/out in comparison where the murano lights dims for a sec then shuts off, making the led flaw in the lexus noticeable.I would recommend these, just wish someone would have recommended these to me earlier.
Bought these to replace the incandescent bulbs in my RV. These little bulb put out white light and use 1/10th the power of the stock bulbs. The are a softer light then the incandescent. I am off the grid most times when camping and the LED lights are a must have to conserve battery power. With several lights inside and out we have no problem going a week without a charge! before we would have to fire the generator up 2-3 days into the trip to charge batteries.
Bright white with just a hint of blue that makes them stand out from farther away than standard halogens. Have had them installed all winter and they still work great. For the money, I don't think you could ask for more than that.
Use them to replace the burned out lights in car. They are bright and do the job. Must say I would recommend them
Attracted to their low price, I tried substituting these LED bulbs for the filament bulbs in a couple of my motorhome's overhead fixtures hoping I'd eventually be able to replace all of my incandescent bulbs to save power.  To make the electrical connection, I had to pry the wires from the base slightly.  Once I did that, and ensured that the polarity was correct, all of the LEDs in the bulbs came on.  But even with all of them working the light output was nowhere near as much as I was getting from my filament bulbs.  Though these are advertised as being "white" the color of the light was a cool light blue, casting a not-at-all warm light.  The difference in light color and light intensity between these LED bulbs and my regular incandescent filament bulbs was dramatic.  As much as I would like to reduce my lighting power consumption which would, of course, greatly increase the time I could light my coach before having to charge my batteries, these won't do it for me.  Sadly, I must continue looking for warmer, brighter LED bulbs.
These are built quite sturdy and feel as though they can hold up a pickup truck although I don't really have one to test it with. I used it to prop up my Nissan Juke and it worked perfectly. The job was to repaint the muffler so I had to back up onto these. From all the reviews, I thought they would slip but they didn't budge one bit. It is a 17 degree incline so it is perfect for cars that ride a bit low.
very good A++++++++++++++ but be care full when you try doing it by yourself, you need someone stand right front of you help you.
Light weight , handy and easy to haul around and use. Stackable, can also be hung on wall for storageIts all plastic, so wont rust, but make sure you dont lreave it in sun light for months at a time.
Fairly easy to drive up onto.  Wish they were an inch wider but it's not an issue as I think other ramps are the same width.
I change my own oil. I mostly enjoy changing oil. Using better oil and better filters than a quickie-lube place gives me great satisfaction for my vehicle ownership.&#34;Mostly&#34; you say? I hate jacking up cars. Get the jack, position the jack, jack the car up, get a jackstand, position the jackstand, lower the car on to the jackstand, continue working. Then, raise the car, remove the jackstand, lower the car, remove the jack. Too much work.Instead, i've bought these ramps, and hands-down, they're the best item i've ever bought for vehicle maintenance. It's so much more convenient to put the ramps in front of the car, then just drive up.They seem to be well made and sturdy, and they give a nice elevation to the car that makes it easy to get under and work. Highly recommended.
I bought these beacause they were 'supposed to be low clearance...guess again. They seem to be of good construction, but now I will have to use them as 'stands' not 'ramps'...
For the last 30 years I have had a pair of steel ramps.  Heavy to move around and tend to rust.  The Rhino Gear ramps are tough, light weight, and certainly won't rust.  I like that they have the wheel stop to help prevent driving off the ramp and they are a little longer so they slide under the front of the car much better than my old ramps.  Time will tell if the plastic holds up with use but the way they are designed I don't expect any problems.
When trying to drive on these they often tend to move forward so your car is on the ground again. Sometimes they move right or left even when you drive on them absolutely in a straight line.To use them in a safe way you'd have to block them from suddenly shooting forward. a long stick of sturdy wood will do the trick if you can fix against a not moving object. If the piece of wood is wide enough it will also help the ramps from misaligning
These ramps work well with our Camry or Prius. The rubber stoppers on the bottom of each ramp keep it from moving around when driving up on them. They also fit together for more compact storage when not in use.
These ramps are great. Like others have said though, buy them local. You will find them cheaper. I have seen them at most major auto parts chains as well as Wal-Mart has them for $50. They held my Land Rover Discovery just fine with no bending or other scary sights/sounds.My truck was up on them for about 5 hours and not a hitch. These are also nice because on the bottom there is a small rubber foot which did not let them slide at all going up or coming down. And like mentioned by others, if slipping is an issue, just get some cheap rubber floor mats and put them on those.Also, they are nestable which does really help for storage space.I would recommend this ramps.
I bought these because they were LIGHT weight to replace jack stands and a jack for oil changes and such maintenance jobs on my sportscar.  With a 3-4&#34; clearance the car goes up these with no issue.  The tires are 245/45/18.. and fit fine.I would say these weigh about 10-15lbs at best.. if you've used steel ramps, or a decent jack and stands you'll greatly appreciate the weight difference immediately.. and frankly driving up two ramps is safer and easier/quicker for oil changes,.. and any other work that needs about 1-2 feet of clearance.Buy them if you do your own oil changes.
Works driving my pickup on them but still put jake stands just in case, so will update if anything goes wrong with them  They are better priced here than anywhere else I could find
Will say that I've only used these once.  Changed the oil today for the first time ever.  I will say that this gave me complete piece of mind being underneath the car.  As a novice, I probably would have been a bit nervous using my ratchet to unscrew the bolts if I were only using jackstands and/or a floor jack.  Tires sat perfectly on the ramps.  Obviously want tires centered on it but wasn't difficult since they're wide enough for a little bit of placement error.  Once the vehicle was on them, there was plenty off clearance underneath.  Remember, for safety reasons, needs to be on a flat surface.  I was able to use these inside my garage with no prob!
These seem pretty sturdy. They are made out of thick plastic. I used them to lift my 2010 infinit g37x.
I have a low SLK230 and these ramps worked perfectly to get it off the ground.  I've tried others from local stores and just scrapes along the bottom plastic molding and frame.  They stack nicely together and are easy / light enough to store in other places.  The only change I would make would be to add some type of rubber bottom.  I had to get a mat to prevent these from sliding a little while loading the car up on the ramps - still cheaper than local shops for the style I needed.
What is not to like about these ramps? I used them on my Dodge 3500 Diesel truck, this truck is heavy in the front. Didn't move or bow and my stock (265/70) tires fit nicely but a bigger tire will hang over the side. I am sure the car will be easy. I do like the nesting feature and they stand up nicely in the garage.
use them to raise my M3 so I can put a jack underneath ! very strong, would recommend, I also saw these at autozone
Easy to use, plant firmly, and crazy sturdy. I prefer them to jack stands but it was scary the first time I drove an auto onto them. My manual is so much easier to control, my wife's automatic lurches forward a bit unpredictably. I got the hang of it now so no big deal but the first time was a learning experience. Both cars are AWD so they didn't move around for me.
Works as intended, as you can see I'm not dead and writing this review, thanks RhinoGear ^_^
(2012 Accord LX with 16" rims and stock tires)(Reasons why -1 star):-My car is stock height, but these ramps come very close to scrapping the bumper (within an inch).  I don't see anyone being able to use these ramps with a low profile sports car.-There was a bit of excess plastic on the bottom that I had to cut off to get one of the ramps to lay flat and not see-saw wobble.  Quality control should have caught this.-There isn't a lot of room for error if you don't have your tires perfectly centered.  If you have a performance car with extra-wide tires then you'll probably have rubber hanging off the edges.-The stop-lip at the end of the ramp could be a bit taller.  If you idle into it, it will stop your car from moving.  But if you accidentally hit the gas too hard, it won't do much to stop you.  If you have large diameter tires, it would be very easy to roll to far without feeling it (until your car slams into the ground and you destroy your bumper).
Very solid car ramps.  Worked great.  My only issue is I wish there was more surface area for the ramps to grab - they do move at times.  Still, great quality and heavy-duty design.
I have a 2011 camaro and these are very handy when i need to wash the bottom of my car or do a oil change. They are very well made and saves the hastle of putting the car on a jack. I use these a lot.
These are not my first ramps, they arrived in a huge box with a lot of packaging paper (so packaged well).  I put both on the floor next to each other in the living room, one of ramps had extra plastic material on the center part of it's bottom (who ever took the plastic out of the mold didn't do a good job cutting off the excess), so one ramp was swinging lift and right as my kids jumped on it, while the other ramp was perfect and not moving.  So I used a small handsaw to finish It myself.  A very simple thing for the factory to observe before shipping a none conforming part!FYI, I do have race ramps that I use for my lower sport sedan, and they have a 10 degree slope.Update 6-23-2013I was trying to go up the ramps slowly several times, I over did it and the right side ramp went under the tire and the ramp was bent (the walls from inside broke off with the center wall, twisted and some minor cracks appeared, so one mistake going up this 17 degree will cost you 55 bucks, burned faster than a match...I did drive again on top of these ramps, but not sure if they are safe for use.  I think a floor jack and couple of jack stands along with a very good knowledge of where to place and lift the vehicle is the best solution.used on a 2009 Chrysler Town and Country van. - curb weight 4750 lbs.Update 9-20-2013I forgot to mention, a day after the ramps were damaged, I called the manufacturer and they sent me new ones (which I'm selling as is) and sent back the damaged.
Had too use them while out dry camping. My truck weighs about 9500 lbs and it held it up but the ends where starting to buckle my buddies truck weighs a bit more and they did not hold up to the 1600lb rating he sent his back.
I've own both the original and the new style nesting Rhino ramps.Since they move on concrete, the originals were easily drive over, given the very low lip at the end of the ramps.  Yes, I drove over the originals and took a chunk out of the ends, as the ramps landed on the rocker panel &#34;pinch weld.&#34;I sold the originals and bought the new style ones, hoping they would be better.THEY ARE NOT!  The end of the ramp split as they are nested after two or three uses.The right wheel spun on my 2003 Toyota Corolla had melted the surface of one ramp.THE RACE PAMPS, at three tomes of price of these are PERFECT.  I dumped these and purchase them, instead.All of the ratings are 5 star on Amazon.  Basically, this in one time that you get what you pay for.
I have a 6000 pound FWD van. I had no issues of slipping while driving up the ramps. I don't know what other people are complaining about but I had mine on smooth concrete in my garage and they didn't budge. No issues of cracking or popping either. The large wheels sat very well in the ramps. These are quality ramps. Just kick them up under the front tires and drive up. They won't budge. If you can't use ramps properly and you make them "shoot" 10 feet or slide like other have mentioned then maybe you should just take your car to Jiffy Lube. These are very well built, quality ramps that won't budge.
I really like my RhinoGear 11912 RhinoRamps MAX Vehicle Ramps (Pair, 16,000lb. GVW Capacity).Solid, sturdy, light weight compared to others competitors and good heigth.
Be care full as they may launch forward depending on the surface you are using them. If the floor is smooth try to wedge them from the front other wise put them on a rubber mat.
These are of decent quality and certainly strong enough to hold the front end of my Jeep Grand Cherokee up; however, they were very difficult to drive up.  They constantly slid across the concrete floor of my garage.  I kept having to back up and start over.  The trick was to drive up the ramp rather quickly, in an un-safe manner.  I basically had to get a running start on them, and then stop on a dime once on top.  Any time I attempted to creep up them slowly, they would just push across the ground.
The ramp keeps sliding on the pavement. So I put a towel under it. Did not work. It seems only way this ramp will work is to back it up with something to keep it from sliding. Returned
I wanted a pair of ramps that would work on my Jeeps and my smaller vehicles. It doesn't matter if I'm rolling a jeep with 35s or a mini cooper on these things. Plenty of clearance and they don't slide.
I had to change the oil in my front diff today, the bolt was seized and it needed drilling and a bolt extractor using. Using these ramps the job was a breeze.I have a front receiver on my pickup that limits clearance at the front, I had no problem getting under the front end using these ramps.These ramps are very light and easy to move around. You really can pickup a ramp with a single finger. The ramps stack one inside the other to take up less space. They feel strong. Not flex at all with my Tundra on them. Rock solid.I bought some rubber floor mats along with these as others had complained the ramps would slide on concrete floors when driving up on to them. My floor is slick, but I did not need to use the floor mats. I suspect those having problems were not going slowly and steadily enough. My ramps did not budge an inch when driving up on them, and I have aggressive all terrain tires for use in my pastures.See my pictures of my Toyota Tundra on the ramps.
I have wanted a pair of these for awhile.  They are perfect for having around for the little auto work.  The photo and description make them seem tough - and they are.  These tire ramps are extremely heavy-duty with very thick walls.  The pads are extra-wide which is an added bonus. And it ships with a rubberized stop to prevent the ramps from sliding.  Overall, very good quality.  Would buy again, if needed.
great cutoff switch, works as described.  no instructions, but doesn't need any.  I go with putting on the ground side.  Works fine and easily.
This is a somewhat inelegant solution to a battery switch.  Contact is made or broken by screwing the knob down tight or loosening it so that its threads don't connect one terminal to another (the two parts are insulated one from the other by a plastic gasket).  The clamp fits a standard battery terminal okay, the cyllndrical terminal is too small for a standard battery clamp to fit securely ... I manufactured a copper shim to eliminate the mismatched size.  Make the terminal the right size and the switch a simple 1/4 to 1/2 turn twist and you've got a five-star product.
Good quality and shipping time. The product works fine but cannot be mounted on batteries with posts having parallel cylindrical design and made of brass. Previous battery posts on batteries I have bought were made of lead and some taper. There is no &#34;give&#34; to the brass, like lead. This device will not seat and slips off too easy on the brass non-tapering posts
So I wanted to add a battery disconnect to my RV batteries and ordered this.  But when It came time to actually put this on I was not impressed. Battery cable wire size was to big for the switch.  Would have been better to see prior to purchase.
I used this on my RV batteries to shut off the power drain and keep the corrosion at bay when the trailer isn't in use.  Although the trailer has a master shut off switch, there's still a little power drain that occurs.  This was aiding the corrosion building up at the postitive terminal.  Just loosen (not disconnect) the green knob and your disconnected.  Easy.  Only issue I can see is the galvanized bolt and nut will probably rust down the road.  And also the bolt doesn't exactly sit flat against the indentation or flange, so when tightening up the nut, you may turn the bolt right through the metal flange requiring another wrench to hold it.
Another great product from Meg's and smells awesome too! They've put the gripper trigger on this item as well and it makes a world of difference. Really makes you appreciate the quality of Meg's
I received this product as part of a gift pack, and was eager to give it a try sinceJohnson Wax 32 Oz Blue Trigger Spray Original Windex  80127and other traditional glass cleaners weren't cutting the road grime the way I'd like them to on my windshield.First, I washed and dried my vehicle.  Second, I applied this product as directed.  Third, I was impressed by the results, even with some minor streaking issues.The slightly oily finish this cleaner leaves on the glass was a concern at first, and I did note some streaking, so I went back over those spots with a clean, dry, microfiber cloth to remove them.  Once that was removed, glass looked great.  Cleaning off the windshield at the gas station seemed to be easier with the glass cleaner having been used days before.  Rain seemed to run off easier too.  Usually I useRain-X 800002243 Glass Treatment- 7 oz., but I'm not sure that I'll need to do that using this cleaner withBosch 24-CA Clear Advantage Beam Wiper Blade - 24"(s) installed.
This glass cleaner is phenomenally fantastic, just spray and and wipe off! It leaves no streaks, sometimes if you're lazy, just spray on your windshield and let your wipers do the majority of the wipe. It will still be clear! However if you have some really bad tough water spots, then I'd suggest getting either glass cleaning clay or a detailing glass cleaning razor and get super clean windows. It'll be like they are just straight out of the factory. Don't get me wrong however, this is a fantastic window cleaner, I just bought a second bottle.
Being an automotive detailer I pretty much have tried them all.  I like to keep my work supplies separate from my personal use products.  I always have a bottle of this on hand.  Works on all window types and contains no ammonia.  Streak free finish when combined with a microfiber glass cleaning towel.  Not to mention, I was surprised to discover that a glass cleaner actually smells good too!
This Meguire's window cleaner is OK and it will clean a window but I would compare it to Windex or any other common window cleaner. If you want a really easy cleaner that is streak free that stays on the window I would suggestTrico 47112 Aquapel Aerosol Glass Windshield CleanerAquapel is much better and truly is streak free. Just remember to use a soft cloth or microfiber towel.
I've been using Meguires products for years and have been very satisfied with many of their products, but not this one.  I've tried many different types of glass cleaners from the age old Windex, to spray foam cleaners, paste cleaners, and finally this one.  This one is horrible.  While initially the cleaner seems to work, it leaves behind a thin oily residue on the glass.  In more than 30 years of detailing and taking care of cars I've never encountered a product that hazes/fogs faster than or more than this one does. To make sure I tested the product on all kinds of glass from auto glass to windows in the home, mirrors, aquariums, etc. and even tried using different drying tools from several types of paper towels, microfiber towels, synthetic chamois, and the results were always the same...it fogged/hazed on all the types of glass in a very short time.Do not waste your money on this cleaner.  I've found the very best results come from just plain distilled or R.O. water and a high quality microfiber towel.  It doesn't fog, won't harm interior window tintings, and costs practically $0.
I have used waterless wash products for years and this one is among the better ones I have used. Over time I have probably tried about a half-dozen different brands. I would have given this a &#34;5&#34; if it were not so expensive. I contacted the company and asked about larger refill sizes but they don't have them and at this time have no plans to make larger refill sizes. So, in spite of the fact that it works quite well I will be shopping around for something that is more economical.
I thought that I would pick this up to try it out. It is technically illegal to wash the car in my neighborhood and we do not have a gutter nearby so the soapy dirty water sits there in the neighbor's curb so I thought that I would be neighborly and also..because.. well... it hurts to wash the car. I drove the car through a cheapy car wash for $8.00; you know the type. I then drove the car home and used Meguiars Ultimate Wash and wax anywhere spray. It worked very well. It produced a shine and smoothness almost as smooth as a clay bar. I would highly recommend using this. You may want to follow up with a clay bar afterwards, and then Meguiars Tech wax; that is good stuff as well ! This is a great hobby ! Happy shine !
it works alright. it kind of smears, especially on glass, and doesn't wash that great. If its a must have then i guess it's worth it but i wouldn't recommend.
Just used it on my car and it cleans very well. Very easy to use and doesn't leave my residue. The paint surface becomes slicker after usage and shiny too. Highly recommended.
I use this to clean the inside faces of the doors, the car body's door frames, the gas filler door, and the like, where I don't want to shoot a big jet of water (soaking the interior of the car). A small spray is effective in loosening a fair amount of crud that may build up, and the waxed surface looks and feels smooth after buffing.
I had been cleaning my car regularly with Quick detailer every couple of days just to keep my car shiny.  The reason I do this is because I live in a condo and don't have access to a water hose, otherwise i would clean it that way.I then read online that this can be bad as it can cause scratching.  I then learned of waterless wash.Well, I have to say this works a lot better than quick detailer as far as cleaning.  My car looked shinier compared to the quick detailer.I still like to use quick detailer in between washes as it provides some mild wax protection and is generally cheaper.The wash will get out mild to moderate dust, but I still think it can't replace good old water/soap washes.  Every once in a while, I will go to a car wash to get  a more thorough cleaning.
I like this stuff.  Smells good, easy to use and I can clean my whole car in about 10 minutes.  I never used it on a really dirty car, but it allows me to clean in between regular washes and keep my car looking great.  Wish it was a little cheaper but I'll definitely keep this stuff on hand.  My car beads rain really well too so I have to think this stuff protects the paint a little.
have to agree with other reviewer.  no standby, even though there is a standby light, it never comes on.  the 3300 seems to be a better unit.  and then there were sparks.  not in connecting to the battery but when i plugged it in.  weird.  i do like the series of lights, but thats not worth the extra $.  why no standby?on the 3300 you attach it to the battery and the standby light comes on.  then you plug it in.  on the 4.3 you attach it to the battery and nothing.  no lights.  anyway, once you plug it in you can set it for what you want.  just dont plug it in near the battery.i found the cables to be the same length as my 3300, plenty long for what i need.
I leave this hooked up through the cigarette plug (sold separately) on my vehicle I don't drive that often.  It has maintained that battery for a long time.  It's nice to know my battery won't die and freeze in the winter time as well.The LED's on the front of it are kind of cool if you look up what each of the stages really means.It gets a little hot when charging in a closed up car in the sun but that hasn't caused any problems yet.
At about 1/2 the previous price.of the 7000 series, you really don't lose much. The best feature is the recondition mode which has brought several of my batteries back from the dead. Bonus setting for AGM batteries such as the Odyssey, so it transmits enough voltage without burning them up.Did I mention that CTEK chargers go on forever-just don't get them wet.
this company makes chargers for many of the high end cars such as Porsche so when they came out with this new improved model, I took it at much better price than the older models that have the car's logo on them and received a better unit.  I have a few of the adapters that I have installed and will install more on my other vehicles.  The one comfort adapter with LEDs stopped showing the LEDs lit within 6 months and althought it still charged with it, I wouldn't recommend that one but the others are fine.
I was ready to buy another battery for my BMW but I bought this and it brought my battery back to life. This was after returning the Battery Tender which doesnt work well in frigid temps.The wires are on the thin side though so I docked it one star and if your engine is at all warm they get real limp like almost gonna melt,. The battery tender I originally had came with real thick sturdy wiring.
The CTEK 56-864 Battery Charger works great.  I have yet to have any issues.  The only thing I do not like about this charger is the LEDs of the charge steps.  To me, it is just too confusing, but still a good charger.
I hadn't been aware of CTEK Battery Chargers until I purchased a Moetefindt trailer from Germany.  The trailer is equipped with interior lights, a winch, and a security system, all of which are powered by a large 12 volt battery.  Incorporated with the battery is a CTEK Charger which is designed to keep the battery in top-rate condition when not connected to the tow vehicle electrical system.  The charger originally installed was designed to operate on 220 volts which is the standard for Europe.  I purchased this one to operate correctly in the USA.This charger provides an excellent method of analyzing a battery using LEDs.  These LEDs also show the progress of the charging operation.  The charger also incorporates a de-sulphating procedure which is designed to extend battery life, and also to recuperate an otherwise unusable battery.  Finally, through its analytic process, the charger also shows if a battery cannot be re-charged.Am planning to purchase another for regular use so I won't have to &#34;borrow&#34; from the trailer.
While other inflators have failed after a couple of months of weekly use, this inflator keeps going. Fills auto tires much faster then expected.  Hose and cord of enough length and not too long.
This is very lightweight, the carrying bag is thin but sturdy enough, and it has a pocket inside to keep the directions if you fold them!  I wish the accessories were in a separate container or secured inside.  I put mine into a small zipper bag to keep them together.  When you put the inflator back into the bag it only fits one direction, because of the LED light.I agree that the light could have used a focusing lens but I do like the way it swivels to give you more options on positioning.  The instructions say the gauge is just a guide and not to believe it's the correct pressure.  I found the gauge to be about 4 lbs. lower than actual, so you do need an independent tire gauge to check to see if there was enough pressure.  I do like the way you can set the pressure you desire and it will turn off when it reaches it, a nice safety feature.It was easy to put on, the buttons are self-explanatory.  A good value, I think.
I was in a parking lot when my car's "check tire pressure" light came on. One tire was looking just a little low, so I decided to stop right there and use this device for the first time.It was very simple to take it out and set it up-- the only design flaw is that the back "hatch" where the plug and extra nozzle heads are is a bit too small and really should have a separate compartment for the nozzle heads... they'll get lost so easily! But I digress...I set it up and got it onto my tire. You have to set it a little above the actual PSI you want because the lever prevents it from going quite that high. I set it and, bingo! In 30 seconds I had a full tire again.A woman stopped to ask me if I had a flat, then noticed what I was doing and said, "Oh, look at that. You even have the equipment you need."Gotta say, I felt very cool. "Yep, lady, I'm like a tire superhero."For good measure, I checked all the other tires and topped them off before putting the device back. It was super-handy, and it's so small that it easily stores under my back seat. Everyone with a car should have one of these.
They do a great job of packing several functions into a device without adding size/weight.  I have the Goodyear pump which I love but I bought this because of the programmable pressure gauge.  VERY, VERY handy if you need more than a couple of pounds.  The work light is at a good level and is bright enough to help change a tire at night.  I tested it in a completely dark garage.  The emergency flasher is bright enough to be seen at least 1/10 of a mile away.  (I walked to the end of the driveway.  It can probably be seen from farther away.)Pros:1) Programmable Pressure Gauge.  GREAT feature.  Easy to us2) Work light that's a little bit off the ground...higher than other pumps I've had.  Illuminates well.3) Storage compartment in the back for power cord and attachments. Forget about accessing it in the dark but it's still very handy.Cons:1)  VERY plastic.  You drop this device and you're going to be picking up pieces.  It may or may not still function but it won't look good any more2)  This is a personal thing...but I'd love a quick attachment adapter.  Sometimes I don't want to screw it into a tire.  I just want to add a pound quickly and move on.3)  Not a big con but the bag was a weak effort.  I'd rather save $.25.  The storage compartment makes it moot.4)  Again, not a big con...just wish the cord was a little longer.  Manufacturers of most of these pumps in general seem to forget most vehicles have the power source in the middle.  So I am already losing three feet plus by the time it reaches the ground outside the door.  When I am inflating lawn mower tires or something I have to get it very close to the rear of the vehicle or back the car out so I can get closer to the door.
Received the item and immediately put it to use on our daughter's bike.  It hadn't been touched for over a year and the tires were very low.  At first glance the tire inflator seems to have all that you will need.  It is shaped like a triangle with a reflector, comes in a cheap carrying case, has a 10 foot hose (which does not reach the rear tires on our larger SUV unless plugged into the second row port), has different adapters for charging different sized tires, an auto shut-off when desired PSI has been reached and of course the gauge.The BellAire tire inflator took about 1 minute to inflate our bike tire.  I did not test on our vehicles 22 inch tires as we had recently taken them to the shop for a patch.If the time comes to use on our vehicle then I will update my review to reflect that usage.  This product should be purchased by all to be kept in the trunk for those emergency moments.  I have found that the auto shut off and gauge are a bit off but then again most cheap devices aren't perfect in that respect.  The round carry handle is useless and painful.  I have also found it very difficult to open the back storage compartment.Highly recommend for all vehicle owners!
What can you say about bearing grease? The can was easy to open and it's big enough to squish truck bearings in. My wheels turn nicely now, thank you.
This is a quality product that is Made in the USA. It appears to be equal to or better that Lucas brand. My experience is short term and I will update after having the chance to drive my truck for a few thousand miles to see how the grease wears. I have always wanted to try the Timken brand because I swear by their bearings that have served me well. So far I am impressed enough to buy some more when needed as I am forced to frequently repack my bearings due to salt water spilling onto the roadway from the marsh that I drive through during high tides. Brackish water is brutal on bearings especially if you can't rinse it off. My tub of grease arrived in an old style cardboard can with a tin bottom & a pop off lid that is different from the advertised picture. The one in the picture appears to be a plastic tub with screw on lid that would be nice for storage and probably allot less prone to leak. This isn't a problem for me since I usually go through a whole tub on a bearing repack but I would prefer sellers use accurate photos when advertising products or at the very least state the fact that products may differ from the advertised picture in the product details. I was surprised at how well this product shipped. It arrived in pristine condition with absolutely no leakage. I never imagined that I would be buying grease through the mail but after the good experiences on my past two Amazon purchases I will probably continue since I can get the exact product I want, when I want it & at a good price.
Timken makes the highest quality bearings. They also require the highest standard grease. Use this for your wheel bearings, grease steering linkage.. High temp Red grease by Timken..the best.
Twenty words to comment on grease. It's packaged very good, the price is good, it's a nice color, it smells like grease, and no I'm not going to taste it.
Works great and cost less here than at the auto store, this is a very good bearing grease for any high temp/pressure appliation
Add me to the good reviews on this!  Typical Timken quality product!  Used this for all bearing (wheel) for my truck and wife's car.-Nigel
I admit that my assignment of 4 stars is more my fault than that of the product. I wanted a LED strip for my snake cage - but didn't notice this was a battery powered bit of gear. I shrugged my shoulders and put it in anyway. Really nicely made, for a change (from just about anything). Lights are bright enough but spaced a bit too far apart. I'm not 100% positive what the perfect use is for this. Might be good in a little used small shed or engine compartment in a boat or something. The real issue here is that it's just not bright enough for close work and too small for larger spaces where you might just need 'some' light. If the LED's were half the distance and there were twice as many, it would be a terrific product for small spaces - but of course that would mean even more batteries - and this uses quite a few to begin with.Not right for the snake cage but perhaps great for a large tool box or something similar. Worth the decent price, either way, should you find the right use.
This is a stick-on strip with 3 tiny but bright LED lights on it. Be sure that the length is what you need; you can't cut it and there are only a few spots of adhesive on the strip.Speaking of the adhesive, it is not repositionable. If you decide the position is not right, you will need additional adhesive or some other method of putting it back in place. (Yes, I got it wrong the first time. I'm no expert at DIY tasks!)I found the package easy to pry open and the directions clear. The battery pack is heavy once you insert 8 AA batteries, but the adhesive for mounting it seems adequate. The instructions point out that you need to leave some slack in the wire to the battery pack. Even with that, it will probably be tricky changing the batteries. The case opens on both sides, with 4 batteries placed on each side. The side facing the wall is held with Velcro-type pieces backed with adhesive. If you install it in a tight place, separating the Velcro to change the batteries will be challenging.At this time the item is expensive for something so simple. I like battery-powered LEDs for some uses, and a search on Amazon for LED battery lights comes up with many options, some very reasonable.
This LED tape light definitely can be called an "multi-purpose" light.  I wanted this strip of lights because when the power goes off I want to be able to prepare the quickly prepare my residence for any indeterminate outage.  Flashlights are fine and my Coleman lantern helps, but the LED feature lights up a wider area quickly and easily.Yes, these can be installed in any number of areas, especially in a work situation.  One relative even wanted them to light up a display hutch.  They do take eight AA batteries, which makes the battery pack a bit heavy.  My only problem with this is that the fully loaded pack weighs approximately nine ounces.  The wire connecting to the strip is 5" leaving me fewer options for permanent installation unless I decide to place it flush on a workshop table or a place where the battery pack can be tucked away without dangling.Do I like this LED tape light?  Actually I love it, save that one picky, minor caveat.  Otherwise I'd give it five stars.  I plan on using it as a portable strip either for inside use or perhaps my occasional outside needs.  Included are instructions for permanent installation, cleaning instructions, and a brief cautionary note on the dangers of looking directly into the light.  I like this better than another strip I have that gets quite hot and would definitely recommend this alternative over the less expensive, but hazardous light strips.
I am going to mainly focus on price on this review. But first, about the product:1. It has 3 fairly bright LED lights2. It is battery operated. There is no easy way to connect it to AC power.3. It has 3M brand adhesive to stick this thing (and its large battery pack) wherever you want.4. It has a high build quality and will probably last a long time, even outdoors.5. The lights are all in a row and because of the way they are mounted, they aren't very adjustable once you install them somewhere.That said, I gave it a 3 star review. It money were not a consideration, I would probably give it 5 stars because it works well and the battery lasts a long time. However, the MSRP for this item is $100 and it is currently selling on Amazon for $50. This is absolutely too expensive for an item like this. The pricing makes no sense at all. There is no amazing feature of this device, the design isn't revolutionary or particularly ingenious. It is just plain expensive.I just don't get it. and neither should you, if you care about saving money. Especially with how inexpensive LED based lighting devices are these days. I can understand if you want a high quality under cabinet light for your garage, but you could just get inexpensive tap lights. The whole thing just doesn't make sense.
Just got this 3M (3) LED light tape and like it. It's unlike most products but useful for inside a car or trunk. It takes 8 AA batteries and does NOT offer input for any outside power supply limiting use. The lightis good for walkways or stairs in the dark, or anyplace needing battery powered lighting. Would be great if it had a timed photo cell option but no luck here, just ON-OFF switch on the battery box. The LED'scolor is good, not too blue but mine very slightly greenish. Each LED has mounting tape and being 3M no doubt should be strong. Price seems a little high for what you get but depening on your needs this lighttape might be well worth it.
We all seem to have a dark spot in a closet or basement that isn't used all the time but where it would cost a fortune to put in a light socket.This tape light can solve that problem. The three lights on the tape are bright enough to light up a good sized closet so you can easily find what you are after. The eight AA batteries make it self-contained, so you don't need to worry about wiring. And, the tape and the battery box come with adhesive patches to apply it permanently on a wall or shelf.My main problem is the battery pack: Eight AA batteries is kind of a lot. Even if you don't use it often, the instructions say that you can expect only about 12 hours of life out of them, so you will want to use rechargeables. Of course, if it is in a closet that isn't used all that much, they could last a really long time. Also, to replace the batteries, you will have to be able to remove the pack from the wall. It attaches to the wall with super-velcro, which will work in _most_ applications. If your wall is something like cinder block, the stick on super-velcro might not be enough to hold it.A lot of the other tape lights are designed by professionals and take some putzing around to get them to work. This short tape is self-contained: Put in the batteries and put it up. No need to worry about wire, transformers, etc. (Compare prices, though. The other light tapes seem to have taken a surprising dip in prices. They may be worth the trouble, depending on your needs.)
Got this to go under a kitchen cabinet where we don't have enough light at times. Very easy to install and I was pleasantly surprised by how much clean bright light it produces from just 3 LEDs. I noticed online that 3M also produces a 12V version of this for use in vehicles but wish that they also had a version for 110V as my only issue with this model is that the batteries need to be replaced fairly frequently. However, if you use it sparingly you can probably get several weeks' use out of it as we do but it would be nice to have a plug-in version.
I gave this 3 stars because it isn't fair of me to rate this because of the missing Stencil Film, because of Vine I'm required to post my review so here it is. With the main part of this kit missing I wasn't able to try it out but after reading other reviews and included directions would think long and hard before trying this it on my car. Sanding the paint down is a commitment you can NOT go back on, damage from sanding finished paint work isn't easy to reverse so be very careful  Maybe a bike like another reviewer but not my car. I don't think this is the best way to go to make a custom stencil, have the body shop do it if you must.
I was expecting something that I could just cut out and adhere to my car. There's too much of a process involved and the mere mention of how it can easily be removed with 3M scratch removal system makes me nervous.If you're into hand-crafted artistic endeavors, you can have a blast copying some complex image onto the surface and tracing it out with some type ofXacto knife set, and then apply it to your car. It could make for a fun project if that's you.This is a product for the brave, faith-filled adventurer, for someone willing to experiment on his or her paint job or for someone who has seen it applied to someone else's car first and is comfortable with the results. I am none of the above when it comes to my car's paint, so my apologies for thinking it sounded like a good idea at the time and then backing out. If I was driving my first used car with its dents and scratches I would have been a more willing participant. The "okay" rating will have to reflect the price of the product compared to the price of an equivalent handy craft and the quality of the instructions and materials.
I thought this product offered an EASY way to transfer any printed image onto my car; like printing something on special paper that was easily transferred over. The operative word there being 'easy' and there's nothing easy about this process; at least not for me. The directions show a rather complex star shape, which would be virtually impossible for the average person to replicate, given the steps require precisely cutting the design out with a razor blade. It would be painstakingly tedious work for anyone, including a highly talented artist, to cut all that intricate detail perfectly and come up with a usable design that didn't look like garbage.As if that wasn't complicated enough, then you have to tape the design onto your car perfectly, and hope the stencil doesn't move one iota while you buff the paint off your car with actual sandpaper -!!- all for an end result that looks mediocre at best. I guess if you have nothing better to do, this would be a great little project for a hobbyist. But I seriously have to wonder if there aren't better alternatives that would take less time, look 1000x better, and not require intentionally scratching your car in the process.Bottom Line -- Nice idea, but not for me.
This kit is impossible to use and is not worth the money. Regular vinyl stick decals are easier to apply. The fact that this kit comes with wet sand paper indicates that it is difficult to use and may cause damage to the paint surface.
First off I initially was going to give this product 2 stars but changed to 3  -- the two star rating had more to do with my annoyance at the product than actually how the product worked.I was expecting something much simpler.  As someone who can't cut a straight line to save my life (forget about curved lines) this is not a product for me.  Finally I decided on something simple (the Oregon "O").  -- after talking my husband into cutting it for me the next step was to apply it.  ---While it only takes off a little bit of the clear coat that was not a risk I wanted to take on my new car so I put in on my barbecue stand which has an dark high gloss finish on the doors.  It is a subtle effect.the concept of a make your own decal for a car is great.  however the execution of this product just has too many steps.  I can see this being great for a beater car as a way of personalizing it but not much more than that.Overall too complex and not something I would risk putting on my car.
As advertised, There's no chemical residue because it requires scuffing the surface of your car. I was not comfortable sanding the my paint job, so we tried it out on our bikes. After printing our designs on the masking sheets, we went out and bought an x-acto (like the other reviewer, we didn't have one either), and cut out our designs. Getting the designs on the curved surfaces of the bikes was probably a little more difficult than doing it on a flat car surface. The sanding made me nervous, but I managed.The results were mixed, the design looked OK on the dark blue bike, but was invisible on the white and silver bikes. It's a cool idea if you are looking to customize your vehicle.
Can't believe my eyes !!!This is the most innovative product I have ever seen in my life.You know it discover two engine trouble codes and I took my car to the agency and they were surprised . They fixed the problem for me.. and thanked this tool on discovering the error codes on my car's OBD system.Do not hesitate to buy it.Worthes every penny.
I tried a few of the cheap ELM327 OBD2 Bluetooth adapters. They were either DOA or quit working after a few weeks. I had an emissions check coming up on my truck and my latest ELM327 kicked the bucket. The cost of repairs after a failed emissions test can be quite a bit more than the $150 for the ScanTool OBDLink.Two things I noticed right off the bat:1. The ScanTool is made very well compared to the cheap plastic of the ELM327s.2. The ScanTool software works surprisingly well even compared to Torque Pro.Other big things:The ELM327s get hot and never turn off unless you unplug them. The ScanTool never got hot and it automatically turns off when the car is off for a while. It also has a button that you press to put the device in pairing mode. The ELM327s will pair with anyone who gets close enough to your car.
Kelly-K of Shiftn Steel Sport Riderz says it's the tool that will save you time and money by not going into a dealer to get that check engine light fixed! Tells you the codes that the pro's use!
I bought this for use with the Torque Android app and it's performing wonderfully in that setup. I have no complaints. Setup and pairing was a breeze and I have not had any issues reconnecting since I got it. Data transmits over nicely and I have no wire to deal with that I need to route to my device.
Works great with my Hyundai Veloster Turbo, and the Torque app on Android.  It does include its own application for Windows, and there's a proprietary Android app too, but Torque is the most convenient of them all.  Torque has full support for the adapter, including the enhanced data rate mode.Pro:-Turns itself off during inactivity-Turns itself back on when the attached vehicle's ECU does something, like when the doors are unlocked-Only streams data when an application is listening on the other end.  Otherwise it remains idle.-Near instantaneous response, even on AndroidCon:-Expensive.  Premium product at a premium price.-Somewhat large: I could not fit my OBD-II / Fuse panel cover while it is in place.  I tried working around this with an extension cable, but it was no use.  I'll have to cut the cover to make room.
The flexible connectors on both ends make this very easy to connect and disconnect at the best angle for draining and cleaning the tanks.
For those who wants to purchase thi 45 degree turn stop. It will leak when there is a rush of waste water coming out. The seal from the hose can not handle this type of pressure. The 90 degree turn will works better as the waste water does not rush directly to the hose seal.
I bought the clear fitting at the recommendation of a friend.  The elbow provides a good, tight seal and swivels easily while allowing you to see when the black or gray water has stopped flowing.  Great product and I'd buy it again if it broke or I lost it.
This was a great investment. If you don't have a &#34;window&#34; into the &#34;project&#34;, you will not know that you've completed cleaning up your &#34;business&#34;.
It does what I bought it for. Now I know when the black water tank is clear. This is plastic, but well made.
Not only does this product let you monitor your black tank cleanliness (by it being clear) but it also has a black tank flush device if you RV lacks one.  My RV has a black tank flush valve, but I also use this as well to "see" for myself that that black tank is clean!  Well made and sturdy!
Really, what could be better than watching all your dirty water rush past down the drain?  Excitement!  Since I have kids, I'm also wondering when I'll see the first toy zoom past, NEVER EVER EVER to be recovered.
Camco 39847 RhinoFLEX Clear 45 Degree RV Sewer Hose Swivel FittingNeeded this to complete to hook up on our camper and keep with the Rhino line of products
leaks a little.not bad with grey water - but of a problem with the black water...
Ok, so it's not real fun to watch the black water tank stuff go by but when you want to make sure it's clean you need a clear spot to see whats going down.  I reccomend this with a backwash system of some kind to make sure you black water tank stays clean and ready for use.
Never in my life have I ever seen such a marvel of modern engineering.  Had I know about this earlier, I would have bought a travel trailer just so I could use this.  Highly recommended.  Guaranteed to complete you.
Great price. Easy to hook up. Easy view through the clear plastic to know when the tank is empty and the black tank flush is clear and clean.
As an Rv owner for many years, I have never thought of why an item of this nature has not been previously available. When dumping your waste tanks, this clear portion allows you to see readily flowing waste products. Yes, I know this sounds undesirable, but this should concern an Rv'er to know that waste dissolvers are doing there job. Thank you Amazon for having this product.
I use this every time I empty my galley, grey and black water tanks. I can see when the tanks are empty without removing the sewer hose.
This unit was exactly what the Dr. ordered to allow my RV drain to work correctly. I use this unit after the Camco 39062 Gate Valve and prior to my dump hose Thus allowing me to dump the black, shut off the flow, pull the grey, allowing it to flow into the black tank. Close the grey and again dump the black. After a couple of cycles, the blace tank has received the majority of the grey water. After the black stops running, I close the black, open the grey and open the gate valve. If I have pressure water available, I then rinse both tanks, and if the black continues to emit paper, I preform the above proceedure again with the added water. I also use this adapter in front of my maserator pump, which allows it to get more water prior to going dry.
Like others, I got this so that I would know when my tanks were good and rinsed out. It's a simple fitting that does its job, with the added bonus of being good and sturdy. I also appreciated the swiveling, as I was able to position it more towards my dump station. It secures on well, and is a solid item. I have no fear of it breaking, which I'm sure you can imagine would not be pretty....Also, though this is a RhinoFLEX fitting it does not need to be used with the RhinoFLEX system. It has bayonet fittings on either end (one male, one female), so can be used with any hose fitted with a bayonet fitting.
fits well just the right angle to push the hose out of the way and into the opening to leave the storage area with out crimping.
As camping season isn't here yet for us, we haven't used it yet.  But it's what we wanted to be able to see when the water is clear...Happy with the purchase.  Can't speak to the durability.
Looks good but haven't tried it yet.  Worth the price and you can see what's going on when you pull the valve lever.
I got this so I could tell that my sewer tank was cleaned out and clear when I dumped my sewer tank. good price and shipping.
My wife hates this. However, when flushing the waste tank, it's important to know 1. when its empty, and 2. that the gray water washes everything clean.
If you RV and you wonder if your tank is fully fluched, well how you gona do that.  Pull the hose up out of the sewer hub and watch the yuck or just have one of these see through elbows to let you clearly see what is fluching out of your tanks.  This takes all the guess work out of the old question, Is it clean yet?  Get one and you will like it.
Bought this so I could see when the black tank was completely flushed out. It works great and is sturdy. How much can someone write about it....its a good accessory to have in your compartment.
Had some plumbing issues with my RV.  This was great to add on to the end of my black tank flush so I could ensure a clean flush.  The fit is tight and produces no leaks.  Definitely recommend for any RV owner to ensure you are properly flushing your tanks after each trip.
This is great for making sure your solids and "dirty" water is completely flushed out when you're dumping.  Easy on and easy off.  I just put mine in a big plastic "zip lock" bag when done.
Another product the RV industry should give with new units.  Saves a lot of water or you could be running  around with extra waste sitting in the bottom of the black water tank.  Great idea when you can see what is coming out and how clear.
Because of the clear plastic you can see clearly when everything is flushed out, so no more guessing and hoping the flush is finished.
When emptying and cleaning waste tanks in an RV it's useful to be able to see what is happening.  The best sewer hoses are opaque, so this short clear swivel fitting allows me to see when the flow has stopped without having to guess.  When I'm cleaning my RV's black-water tank it's especially helpful to be able to see when the effluent is running clear.  So far, I've experienced no leaks or problems with this well-made fitting.  It's compact enough for me to leave it permanently and conveniently attached to my RV's drain outlet.
Camco 39847 RhinoFLEX Clear 45 Degree RV Sewer Hose Swivel Fitting ....works well using...  it with the flojet pump ..I leave it attached and cap the end after cleaning it till the next use when I need to use the flowjet ...
After 2 years of camping, it's still working like it should. No issues, no leaks, no fading, no cracking. Awesome.
It looks as though Camco 39847 will work without any problem  Haven't used it yet so it is why I only gave 3 Stars.  I will write another review after my next trip in the motor home.  Really do not expect any problems.
My coach has the drains way back under so that you need to lay on your stomach to attach the hose. A couple of these fix it.  You do need to be careful how much stress you put on them or they will pop apart.  Be a little careful and they are great.
I was hoping to install this 90* clear bend on my RV, and if it would have fit, it would have really been perfect.  The pluming in my coach won't permit it though, so I have an unused product that I guess I'll give to the next person that I meet who needs one.The quality of this product is excellent though, so if you need a 90* clear fitting, this one works great.  It does Swivel too--meaning that after you hook it up between your hose and RV, it will swivel!  Very cool..
Works very well on my travel trailer connections.  Swivel is smooth and water/waste tight.  Had the unit in use for about 4 months no and zero issues.
Not much I can say here, it does what its supposed to do. It seems durable enough but time will tell the whole story.
I've used this on our camper and it works great. swivels easily and keeps everything flowing in the right direction!!
Haven't had the opportunity to use it just yet, but have installed it to make sure it fits.  I'm sure it will work fine.
Bought all one name product and we like to be able to see that our tanks are coming clean.Good idea.
If you really want to know when your black tank is clean, you need this clear elbow.  It's amazing how much &#34;stuff&#34; can keep coming out of your tank even when you think it has to be clean.  Everyone needs a clear connector like this and the Rhinoflex hoses and connections are the best!
Using this made flushing the system easy.  I was able to see all that was flowing allowing to make sure all was clear.  The swivel also made directing in the desire direction a breeze.
purchased for A friend so as to fit maserator  pump under his unit . It did the job as I expected. He is pleased with the outcome and as a bonus can tell how clean his tanks are. I personally are going to g et the complete  Rino system
Not only do you see when tank is clean, but it swivels to any anjle you need to dump then swivels back up for groung cleanance
This clear elbow is essential to a clean tank.  I flush my black tank before storage and this allows me to know when to stop.  No more guessing when it is clean.
Works fine for what I'm using it for. The key fob things are pretty good. But the clip is poor quality. Has already broken after about one week.
I installed this on my 1994 VW golf. It's simple to install and simple to operate. Recommended to anyone looking for a simple and affordable central locking system
If you know what you're doing, and if your car has power door locks and you have no remote. Yes, the harness has tiny wiring with small gage copper. See the other reviews for the wiring pinout instructions, and thanks a million to earlier reviewers that posted that info. You should ideally have a workshop manual for your vehicle and take some time to determine which wires you should tap into for the lock/unlock/power/ground/lights. Four stars because of sparse documentation, but this system is incomprehensible value. $15 for the entire system, including two heavy, really nice key fobs?? After the dust settled, my system works from about 300' away. But don't buy this if you aren't comfortable cutting your car's wiring, you have to know what you're doing with this thing.
I used this item to convert my manual lock 2000 Nissan Frontier to have power locks. I also purchased http://www.amazon.com/Central-Conversion-Universal-Locking-System/dp/B00BXKR6RQ/ref=cm_rdp_product to finish it off.
Works well and is more than bright enough, almost too bright. Had to sand the ends down to make it fit in the Prius dome light
1997 Accord ExI swapped out all the bulbs in my car for SMD and just needed this last pair. These lighters run slightly larger than what the OE called for so youll have to force them in and hope nothing breaks. I would have taken a star off for this, but it didnt break anything in my car. Ill post pictures later on but these are noticeably bright and I get a lot of comments on them.
Arrived quickly and as described. These work pretty well, and are pretty bright. I tried a 6-led version before this which were alright, but these are brighter. They fit well, but it would be nice if they had the polarity indicated.  Had for several months now and they work great.  They are a little on the blue side, but not as much as some of the other LEDs I've tried.
These things flood the vehicle with light and are a huge improvement over the stock bulbs.  I would recommend for anyone.  Make sure you know which bulbs you need and measure if your not sure.
This light is obviously easy to install so no need to talk on that.  The light is a nice bright white.  In hind sight I could of went with a bulb with more LEDs but wasn't sure on the space I had. For their size they are bright.  No complaints
These little guys really light up the interior and fit perfectly,  at first I thoughy they were too small to give out enought light but I was wrong.
These are a great replacement for a regular interior light bulb on several types of cars.  Much brighter than the OEM bulb.
Easy fit and plenty bright.  A huge improvement over the light output of standard bulbs.  It is a harsh white light though.
How you install these depends on how the old bulb is held in place.  The dome light in my wife's 2004 Honda Civic sedan has C-shaped connectors that grasp the bulb at both ends.  The bulb slipped right in.In my 2013 Subaru Impreza hatchback, a pair of slotted metal blades hold the bulb.  They needed a little bending to wrap them around the pointed ends of the bulb.  In both cars, these bulbs bathe the interior with plenty of pure white light that's bright enough to read by while preserving the "turn down the house lights" effect without the flickering some reviewers mentioned.  One map light in the Subaru sheds enough light for both the driver and passenger.  Switch 'em both on and you have nearly enough light to perform surgery.As to getting the desired color, I ordered from YupBizauto on the "More buying choices" list and received 2 perfectly matched pairs of white bulbs shipped from California instead of waiting weeks for the boat from China.
Bought these to replace the stock dome and map lights in my car.  They are much brighter and give off a pure white light.  Very satisfied.
Dome light replacements for a 2013 Subaru Legacy.  Bright daylight white... which is a bit gray/blue.  Matches the color of the stock LED puddle lights.  Much brighter than the stock lights and don't make the dome fixtures hot at all.  All the light is directed down!
These led lights were what I was looking for although they have a bluish tint. A little more light over standard bulbs. I did need to bend the contacts to make them fit but there was plenty of room in my subaru. Happy I don't have to worry about the battery dying when my kids leave the door open.
Everyone compliments my lights when they get in the car. Nice and bright. To fit them in you may need to bend your connectors in order to complete the connection but it will work.
These are great little LED car bulbs. I used them to replace lights in my Isuzu Rodeo. They provide bright clean white light (almost bluish in color temp). I'd buy them again. Says it comes with a sticker, I did not receive a sticker, though I don't care.. I wanted the bulbs not the sticker.
I wanted to upgrade my dome lights to LED. Unfortunately, they don't make Cree LED's in s 31mm size so these are the next best option. With 12 LED's, it's as much brightness as you can get until they figure out a way to stick on more LED's. Have had them on for a few months now and they are holding up nicely.These have polarity (positive and negative side) so make sure you have them placed in the right direction!
I am slowly converting all of the secondary lights on my Honda Civic to LED. These interior lights work great, providing a nice bright white light. When compared to the OEM's I can now read something that before was difficult with that old &#34;yellowish&#34; light. Plus they light up the interior better to ensure that no one is lurking in the back seat.
Bought this to replace a burnt out light in my old 1994 Toyota Pickup and it works well. Brighter than I have ever seen in that truck.
i searched a lot of this kind of high tech light around amazone, and i'm glad i picked this. super cheap, super bright, super cool white light. much brighter than my sevaral old dome light bulb from walmart, and cheaper than walmart. the walmart SYLVANIA long life one says it has 200lm and 95hr life time, well good luck with that, totally no compare to this. also this size is correct, 31mm no cheating.made me want to replace all other lights for both my cars. only hope these will last much longer. i think it will.
Just installed these in our map, dome and rear hatch lights and I'm pleased to report that the bulbs worked in all locations! They are definitely polarity biased, so be sure to change installation direction if you're finding that they're not working for you.They're nice and bright, without too much of a blue tint. Certainly a cooler light than incandescent, but it's worth it for the reduction in  power consumption.Size-wise, I too received bulbs with the opposite layout than what's pictured, but that only affected my map lights. I just slightly rotated them so that the direction of the bulb was facing the seats, rather than straight down.Another reviewer has mentioned that the Fade feature of the lights may shorten the life of LEDs, so we'll have to see how these do for longevity. So far though, I really like them!
I got these for my 2005 GMC Yukon to replace the dome and rear map lights. For the dome light, they work perfectly! The map light is a bit more complicated. It appears GMC puts resistors in the rear map lights to reduce the intensity of the map lights. This is really a good idea because if your rear passengers turn on the lights in the back, it will impair the drivers ability to see the road. The tings is, while this does dim the LED lights, they are not as forgiving to the dimming effect and are simply not putting out enough light. Because the lights is so directed from these SMD LED lamps, I don't think they would interfere with the driver. I plan on removing the resistor to get a bit more output from these. That is a project for a future day. Until then, they work GREAT in the dome area.NOTE: Unlike standard incandescent lights, LED lamps are polarity sensitive in DC systems. If you install these and they dont work, turn them around.
The bulbs are really bright and fit/perform well in the trunk of my mustang.  I did not get the promised sticker.  I don't care about a dumb sticker but if you promise,  you should deliver!Talking about delivery,  my 2-day shipping due date via UPS was Wednesday (ordered late Saturday night and shipped late Sunday.  On Monday,  I get a text message stating UPS were unable to deliver and would try again Tuesday  ????  On Tuesday,  the tracking website indicated UPS had transferred the package to USPS !!!!?  Finally the bulbs arrived on Wednesday per the original plan but by mail.  At least I saved some time as the mail comes at lunchtime and UPS always in the evening.Makes no sense at all with the delivery though.
These LEDs are very bright and much whiter than stock incandescent bulbs, but they ends are smaller diameter than actual 578 style bulbs and will not fit properly into light fixture without crimping the factory terminals significantly. Also, I ordered four bulbs but only two of them actually worked. A 50% failure rate is simply not acceptable.
for the price they are good. Hence the four stars. But theyre not super bright, I've already upgraded to stronger leds for my truck. But if you're ok with not having super insane brightness, they'll work for you most likely
Upgraded my interior bulbs to these and they are bright!! Would recommend everyone to upgrade to led interior bulbs!! They are great!
Piece of cake to install into an 05 Dodge Magnum - they pop right in. Cool blue color and definitely look better than stock lights. Will order the same bulbs to light the hatch.
Simple, quick review.These work great for interior lights.They are slightly bigger so you may have to bend you fixture a little.Great light out put!Be careful they are easy to break if forced.A little expensive but should last for years!
Used these in my dome lights in my GMC Yukon Denali XL. Adds nice bright light to the interior. Gives the truck an updated look inside.
They came as advertised but were not as bright as I expected they were good quality but not what I expected
Fit in my Silverado great and look even better! Definitely a great oem replacement bulb to modernize any vehicle! Very bright.
Love these lights!!  They are bright and light up the interior of my truck super nice!!  Would recommend them to anyone who needs brighter interior lights!!
What can i say, they fit perfectly and light up the interior really good. Wouldn't hesitate to buy another pair for my next vehicle.
These are plug and play. They are polarity sensitive so if they don't work at first reverse the lamp in the socket and it will work just fine. They are about as bright as the OEM incandescent lamps but have that blue LED hue to them. The also work with the dimming to off feature that many cars have in their dome light set-up.
Work great in RV fridge! Plenty of light, with low power consumption and zero heat. It fit the space perfectly.
Very bright for such a little bulb.The blue light takes a bit of getting used to, but at least I can now see inside my cab...
These work great in my car. Small enough to fit the cramped spaces the incandescent bulbs are meant for and they look great.
I was hoping these would work for my license plate lights in my 2005 GMC Yukon. BUT - They are too long and don't fit. I was able to use them as interior courtesy lights in the doors with a slight modification. At first they were a bit too wide, but i trimmed the plastic just a bit and now they fit. The look WAY better than the originals, but now I've got to upgrade the dome lights to match! Remember, unlike incandescent lights, LED lights are sensitive to polarity. Plug them in, before replacing the socket in the lens, test them, if they don't work, simply turn them around!
I bought 18 packages of these and they do use far less energy that the standard lights that I have been using.  If you are looking at ways to conserve your battery life these are the ticket.  But these are WHITE LIGHTS and they are bright.  So much so that they take a bit to get used to.  They are not mood lighting, and are not easy on the eyes.  I ended up putting the regular lights back into a few of the fixtures just to be able to have a light that was more relaxing.
As advertised.  Bright enough.  Not as bright as the 42 SMD T15 but did what I wanted.  I used one of these and one of the brighter ones in each RV light.
awesome looking lights i mean these light the whole back of my chevy and the road they are great i am going to buy more as spares they are bulbs after all . they are very white and bright the sticker was cool i put that on my iphone  thanks
decent light output, bulb is higher profile and may not fit in all light housings (like dash board lighting or license plate lights)
Once in a while you may get a defective bulb in the pack, but for the price I'm not crying! The bulbs work great, super bright and last pretty long so far......
Ok, I get that there are bound to be some DOA bulbs. Couldn't you just send a replacement without having to return the defective one? It isn't going to be repaired, so just show the customer that you really want their business and not make them send it back in the mail. How much is it going to really cost you?
I used these lights as upgrades for my car's map lights, and they are really bright. More blue than white, but still good. However, when the car is off they stay dim. Its because they require too little electricity to turn on, so the minimal current running through the existing sockets keep them dim. Great lights if you can overlook that fact.
Replacement fit is not that good. It is difficult to get these to make proper contact in the standard T10 light socket. The contacts are in the right place but they are not heavy enough or wide enough to obtain good contact. When you bend the little wires outward they make contact if you jiggle them when you install them. Also, the white plastic base seems a bit wide for the socket and goes in real tight making it even more diffident for them to install with ease.  Great brightness, low amp draw.  Good replacement when you can get them to work, now waiting for snow and tractor vibration will see if they continue to work?
I put one of these in my RV's porch light to replace the standard bulb and it melted. I checked the socket with a millimeter and the socket turned out to be fine. Not sure if it was just a bad unit or what, but I threw the other one away as I have no desire to have a fire.
Changed over my interior lights in my truck to all LEDs and these are super bright! Love how they look and great quality.
But that's not why I ordered! I ordered because I have been replacing all my incandescent bulbs with LED where I can. They work, they look good, and I'm happy. That's all that matters.
Easy to install.  Work great.  Last forever.  They use so little energy I never need to worry about killing the battery with the engine off.
I have purchased many of these and am impressed how bright they are. I have some in multiple cars and in my boat. One thing to watch for is mounting depth. I have found a few places they won't fit because they are too long.
I put 2 in my '12 Avalon: one for the license plate and the other in the trunk. It's true they work only one way in the socket. If at first they don't work either way, and before writing them off as defective, try prying the wire contact away from the center plastic insert ever so slightly before inserting them in the socket. They could've been a 16th of an inch shorter but fit they did. They are too long for BMW side directional lights though.I have tried several LED bulbs in different sizes previously and for the money these bulbs are pretty decent and the brightest yet. I am going to get a few more to try in the dome and GMC plate lights and will report back.One more tip - don't drop them; they are sensitive in that respect. I didn't get any sticker but I didn't need one...
These work very well and are bright i bought some for my city running lights in my 2012 c250 and they look nice
I bought 2 sets of these bulbs to replace my side light indicators. These bulbs are a bright white light!
Trunk and cargo area lights seem to be an afterthought, almost as if car-makers are saying "Throw a low-wattage fixture back there and we'll have one more 'standard feature' to pad the list in the brochure."  That all changes when you plug in these li'l chunks of the Sun. Because of their extra length, they're particularly suited to horizontal installation as in dome, trunk and cargo lights.  If you can plug them in and they fit the enclosure, they're perfect for many cars made within the past 10 years and beyond like the trunk light in our 2004 Honda Civic sedan and the cargo light in our 2013 Subaru Impreza hatchback.  The pure white light complements the LED dome and map light bulbs we installed, spreading that white-hot LED bling into the dark forgotten regions.
As with many LED chips/bulbs, the bulb itself is bright as the sun but the beam does not reach any further than the conventional filament bulbs.  I put these for the back-up lights and even though they look cooler, the visibility is reduced.  They may be great for blinkers but not for back-up lights.
I purchased these for a cargo area light on a 2012 equinox. I have the smaller version of these lights in the overhead map lights. They are different colors. The smaller ones are more of 5000 kelvin. These lights are more yellow but whiter than factory. If you plan to change the lights in your car use all of the same model of LED.
Purchased these to replace the bulbs that light up the license plate on my car.  They are much brighter than the stock bulbs and give off a pure white color.  Satisfied with this purchase.
The bulbs are not as bright as I had expected, but I have never purchased LED bulbs before. We bought just one package of 2 to try in our RV Trailer. They were perfect for dry camping, because they use so little of our battery. Perfect for the bedroom. Perfect for above the table to play games at night. I will leave the kitchen bulbs as is though, because as I said, they are not very bright. We are hoping with several more that they will brighten the place up a bit more. We liked them so well, that we decided to order several more for other places in our RV. I WILL purchase from them again, from this seller.
These work great as low-wattage interior lights in my forest river R-pod (R-177).  I have one installed over the dinette and one installed  over my bed.  They are great for dry camping!  The color is very white-blue.  I use them as night lights when I'm only running in or out of the camper for a beer.  The one over the bed is very sufficient for a reading light.
Using these for my vehicle's back seat lights. Very bright and gives it a nicer look than the stock bulbs. Cheap and effective, I recommend these.
No more cracked covers in my rv from the super hot bulb!! We order a few to try... Then replaced every bulb in the trailer. They are not quite as bright as the filament bulbs, however, unless you are performing surgery in you rv, do you really need spotlights? These will nearly burn forever... It produces a very pleasant white light. Very proud to recommend.
nice product no problems got them to work after installing them matches my 3rd stop light on my truck looks good
lights work but not as bright as I would liked them to be. nice for an area where you only need a little bit of light
Nice LED upgrade for cheap.  Just be sure that the bulbs will fit (length wise) compared to stockers.  I tried to replace some lic plate 168 bulbs with these, ended up wasting like an hour taking the old ones out and finding that these wouldn't fit due to length.
I wanted a pair of map lights for my car, but did not want to go down the boring halogen road, so I got a pair of these to spice up the look of the interior of my car. They work like a charm, light up MUCH more of the inside of my car than the old halogen bulbs do, and consumes less energy. So if you want to look cool, see better at night, and use less energy; quit sitting on your butts and get yourself a set! They work great for me and I'm definite you won't be disappointed either.
I bought these and did not realize that they only had 20 LEDs.  I wanted the 42 LED set so I kept these as a back up and ordered the 42 LEDS because these give off very little light.  They are OK!
I tried these looking for a whiter light bulb for the license plate display. They did just that but maybe too white as kind of off balances rest of lighting on vehicle. Being that this supplier is an off shore distributer (Hong Kong) the delivery is much longer than expected however within their projected time limits.It would be good if their replacement chart was better cross referenced with the actual bulb being replaced, however mine fit fine. These bulbs are polarity specific which means must be installed one way only to work, unlike regular bulbs. If they don't light, all that required is to remove bulb and install (180*) the other way.
Used to replace the dome light in a '98 Accord and they fit perfect and light up very well. I like EZ Motorings SMDs, ill definitely order from here again.
Bought a set to replace the dome lights in my car and look great at night! These are much brighter and more pure white light compared to my other white 194 size 5-SMD led map lights. Would definitely recommend buying these but remember get the most led's you can fit into the space your replacing the other bulbs. More LED's in each bulb means MORE LIGHT! The size is right at 39mm so size is perfect. I added a couple of pics to show you how they look.
If you are looking for some lighting alternatives for your car, you have found the right bulb(s) and your search is over. Buy these bulbs as they work great for me by emitting more bright, white light than any other LED bulb money can buy on amazon. Remember, $4.49 with free shipping (and it ships very fast) is as good as it gets. You won't find a better price than this. In fact, I just ordered another set just because they are so white and work amazingly. So what are you waiting for? Get yours now while they're still here!P.S. The negative reviews are present for obvious reasons: people touch the filaments, they aren't gentle with them/handle with care, squeeze the bulbs, etc. So if you do any or all of those to your bulbs, what do you expect to happen? DEDEDE!Make a long story short, these bulbs are for YOU. They ship fast and work great. Like night and day.
Awesome and very bright. I really like them and would suggest these to my friends. Definitely, buy these again for my cars.
These bulbs are tiny! They work great though! I had to get another one shipped because only 5 leds worked, but they sent me 2 more! I'll be getting more!
The wires are a bit difficult to &#34;hide&#34; when installing on the hood. as they have a large plastic clip that needs to be hidden from view to make the install look proper. But all in all, for the price, they are a nice set of lights. Be warned that the front Grille Guard is PLASTIC,,,,and they are in one piece for lack of a better explanation,,,,they seem like they can come apart, but it would be difficult.
These are great. My headlights actually keep surging and blowing out. These are my primary headlights now, so I rely on them greatly and I've been using only these for 3 months. The beam is great, in fact better than my headlights were. The wiring loom that comes with is great; installation was a breeze.
I already reviewed a previous KC purchase.  These light up the night, made it through a MN winter, with a ton of road salt sprayed on them, and no sign of wear (or rust) can be found.  BIG fan of KC.
I mounted these on the side of my JK with a KC Hilites 7317 Black Windshield Light Side Mount Bracket for Jeep JK - Pair  and they offer a lot of visual aid I have them wired into my high beams and I primarily use them for spotting Deer I drive to work at 4:30 am and I see deer all the time and with these they help see them before I hit them very happy with them and will purchase more for my bumper for trail riding or a fog light version.
Great lights and seem to have a good warranty also, 23 years! Easy to install, good directions included, also aiming the lights was  snap! Look great on my 2012 Jeep Wrangler!
Deep Cycle batteries are perfect for prolonged parking, constant drain and longevity, in other words, just what a Prius needs. That 12 volt battery in the rear of the car IS, the heart of your car. When it dies, and it will, just look at your car because that is all you can do...nothing works, period. In case you think it cannot happen to you, wait 'till it does.  There is NO warning and for some reason that little black box of a battery IS the single weakest link in the most reliable vehice in the world. It dies for many reasons, two friends of mine had theirs die and l thought it was so funny to see how they carried on, then it happened to me...no fun at all! You cannot even open the trunk to even think of getting to your 12 volt battery. If an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure...for the Prius make that a ton of cure. All l did was to not quite close a door...the next day?....three thousand pounds of dead weight. Found out that locking the Prius every time shuts down all main parasitic electric draws...wish l had known...now with this Deep Cycle l am good for ten years, at least. Don't push using your factory 12volt much longer than four years...you will avoid the worst nightmare ever. And, oh, no matter what Naysayers tell you, replacement is an easy thirty minute job...watch the U Tube how to...
First if you have 2010 or newer Prius, changing this battery is trivial. Earlier models had a strange strap holding it down, but on the 2010, it is the same as any car, except its in the trunk just like a BMW and many other cars these days.My Prius would not start; push the button the dash lights up but car not "ready" can't get to turn off either. Intermittent and Very strange. Actual mileage was great but indicated miles to empty was way way too short. Other odd ball things. Finally got to the point where I got the "can not enter P" message while turning it off. Googled that and saw I needed a 12v battery. Once I looked into that I found out how to get to the display of battery voltage (hold the "info" button on display and turn head lights on and off 3 times. Go  to diagnostics...) and sure enough battery was only at 9 V rather than 12+Changed that stock battery out and it's like a new car. Only odd thing was that the miles to empty was still off by 100+ miles until I bought gas. Now it's all perfect again.
Even the crappiest battery is great at first, but from research this one should well outlast the others and provide superior service, assuming ok treatment.  Check back in 7 to 9 years and I'll let you know if I was satisfied.  In general, discharge and lack of proper charging kills batteries prematurely, with temperature a small factor as well.  This battery arrived with 12.57V (resting volts) indicating 90-100% charge.  It has a &#34;12/13&#34; sticker, which I presume to mean December 2013 manufacture date.  I ordered it January 6th, 2014, so this is ideal.  Thanks to &#34;Everything-Aftermarket&#34; it came quickly and well packaged, though foam padding on the top would be a good idea instead of just packing paper.  The plastic handle is super-easy to remove and reattach, and the lead terminals are the pencil-style used by Toyota Prius.Prius in general tends to kill batteries prematurely due to lots of electronics which have functions while the vehicle is off, such as re-pressurizing the breaks before entry, venting the fuel system, always listening for the key fob, and sometimes powering the dome light or headlights, etc.
great price and great amazon service, but doesnt fit the first prius'. Be careful. refund was instant,  love amazon! 2004 and older may work for you. My ratng is not actually fair, I know. sorry
Toyota's factory Prius 12V battery will run you anywhere from 250-300 installed and one can only realistically expect 3-4 years life span out of it.For less than $175 you can expect much more longevity, durability out of this Optima. All you need is few simple hand tools and couple hours of your time.  All one need is 10mm & 14mm socket attached to either a ratchet or power screw driver, and a magnetic pick-up tool in case you drop a screw or bolt into the side panel.If you are debating whether to DIY or not, take my word for it, it will be one of the most rewarding DIY project you'll ever perform.
Fit just fine and the quality seems like it will last. One thing I didn't notice is now its much harder to use my engine block heater. So keep that in mind as the cord is behind there.
Super easy install.  Directions look like they are suspect, but this is the most straight forward install of all time.  After a few months the grill insert is holding up and no paint chipping.  Would have been a 5 star rating but the hardware included is not the best, but definitely adequate for the job.
This thing fits like a glove on my 2013 Super Crew.  It looks like it was supposed to be there.  It's made of sturdy aluminum and very solid.  The lower tabs fit into slots already made into the bumper.  There are tabs on the upper side of the grill that line up with tabs on the under part of the grill opening.  There are inserts and screws provided to secure it all down.  The directions are horrible...  On the good side, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to install.  I'd buy it again in a heart beat.
Fits my 2013 F150 FX4 with a little wiggling, but otherwise pretty easy to mount (instructions could have been clearer), sturdy, and looks great.  Black powdercoating seems pretty good, but I can't speak for longevity as I've only had this for 2 months.
Received the grille quickly so I cannot be happier with the service.I put the grille in place to see how it would line up and realized the holes would line up in a position that would leave the top of the grille out too far and it looked like it was angled. The top of the grille has some visible marks where the vertical rods go through and it is unfinished, so you see the little holes in the top of the grille. I did not like the way it looked sticking out so I drilled new holes in the grille mounting tabs, closer to the grille body. This allowed me to use the clips in the existing bumper holes and secure the grille in the position I wanted. The grille fits securely and looks great in my ecoboost f150. No more ugly open hole in the bumper. It looks like factory.
Product compliments the front bumper area of the 2013 F150. Very easy to install (5 minutes max). Fit and finish is excellent.Shipping was fast and packaged nicely.I would recommend this product for anyone with a Ford F150 to complete the front end look and protect the intercooler of an EcoBoost motor.
This was the one items that many Ford enthusiast site recommended for the f150's with the eco-boost to cover the big hole. No exception this thing fit the gap perfect. It was easy to install. and well made. Most people think it is a standard feature of the 2013 F150 that I drive.
like everyone recommands it, Honda stuffs are the way to goused on my 92 Eg civic sedan that kinda leaks fluids.
No complaints about the fluid.  Would go with some aftermarket brand, but either I decided based on reviews not to, or I decided the savings wasn't worth it, I don't recall which.I used two bottles - drained out the existing fluid (disconnect the return hose into a bottle, run the vehicle and turn the wheel back and forth until it's gone), added a little of the new stuff to "flush" the system and continued pumping it out, then reattached the hose and filled the reservoir up.  The mini-flush was probably unnecessary, but I wasn't going to save 1/3 of a bottle anyway.
well I topped off power steering fluid and I'm sure Honda fluid will do a exceptional job now and in the future
Great product, the best for the purpose.
Replaced my power steering fluid in my 2001 Civic EX. Previous owner had put in non-OEM power steering fluid, and the seals deteriorated. Got this when I replaced the pump - manual states specifically to use only Honda OEM fluid - now I know why!
These LED lights are better quality than any I've purchased on Amazon. They are very bright and I highly recommend them!
LED lights for plates work great,nice white glow for plates. You can see the plate better in the dark. Nice and easy install.
Gerat lights - bright, inexpensive compared to the originals too! Wouldn't hesitate buying more LED's for my interior and fog lights.
BRIGHT! These LEDs do the job. I have a tinted license plate cover, and it lights up the plate well. They are built well, and I have had them in for a month and no problem so far.
These are 'directional' bulbs and shoot light straight out (and away from the plate  on my '06 Mustang).  Needed the 'wrap-around' style LED bulbs ie:http://www.amazon.com/20-SMD-Light-Replacement-Bulbs-STICKER/dp/B006R34PB4/ref=sr_1_2?s=automotive&ie;=UTF8&qid;=1359919494&sr;=1-2&keywords;=automotive+led+lightsSuggest you check your bulb set-up before purchasing these.  I'm going with a pkg of 10 of the 'wrap-around-LEDs' for better illumination.  The vehicle shown obviously has the LED pointing directly at the lic. plate.  Will be fine then.
We didn't get a lot of snow and ice this year but this did the job anyway.  The scraper is solid and I like the fact that you can easily orient the brush two different ways depending on where you are brushing the snow from your vehicle
This brush arrived just in time for yet another Nor'easter here in New England.  It wasn't a huge storm, so it was perfect for trying out this brush.  I personally like the OXO grip products.  I own a couple of other brushes by them, as well as a santoku knife.  Although this brush handle is hollow, it feels thick enough and quality built to me.  The brush on it is thick without being too stiff, and can be rotated with the push of a button for either sweeping, or pushing the snow. And, it has a nice thick scraper on it that doesn't get in the way when you're just sweeping. Although the whole brush does indeed feel solid, I do have to agree with the other reviewer here that mentioned that the rubber grip on the bottom that makes it easy to hang onto should go the full length of the shaft.  Or at least for half of it.  The smooth plastic above the grip gets pretty slippery once its wet, and it's sometimes just more convenient to hold the brush a little higher up.  Not a big miss in my opinion, but something worth mentioning...The only thing I can say someone may object too as to this brush is its length.  I have a small medium size truck, and at 22" it seemed that I was reaching  a bit here and there.  For someone with a big SUV or truck, this would be aggravatingly short in my opinion.  I suggest that if you have a bigger vehicle you move up to the OXO extendable brush that at the time of this writing is only 5 dollars more.  It's basically the same brush with a twist type extendable handle.  As for this brush, I still give it 5 stars.  It's a good quality brush with that great OXO rubber grip that I feel will last, and is reasonably priced... : )OXO Good Grips Extendable Twister Snowbrush
My plastic scraper/brush is worn out. This is a sturdy scraper and brush that is very versatile with the swiveling head. I like the long handle as it helps me reach the center of the windshield without having to lean over the fender and get all snow covered. The scraper will scratch off even ice.
This is by far the nicest snow brush I have ever owned.  Good heavy duty bristles, wide scraper, and the telescoping arm is really useful.  The arm is metal, the rest plastic, but seems to be nicely built.  Recommended!
I general I love OXO products. I have several of them around the house. I am thrilled that a company focuses on making products that are easy to use and hold. That's doubly true when it comes to products that need to be used in the ice and snow.The OXO Good Grips Twister Snow Brush is about two feet long. The brush on the end of its head rotates 90 degrees and "locks" into position. So you can use it lengthwise or cross-wise depending on what you are trying to brush. The bristles are gentle, which is good. They won't scratch the car's finish.At two feet, it's just the right length to go just past the midway point on my Subaru Forester windshield. If someone had a massive hood it might not quite reach.We like it best in the cross-wise position. You can push and pull the snow fairly easily. One minor down side is that the bristles, as mentioned, are soft. So the times that you have to "wham the brush into the snow" to create a starting position, the bristles don't do that very well. Also they tend to "collect" the snow, not shed it. So the brush ends up looking fluffy and white fairly quickly. You then have to whack out the snow to do another pass.I'm in my 40s and live in New England, so I've gone through many, many snow brushes over the years. This is definitely far better than most of the ones I've tried. I do think I'll still need the stiffer brushed brush in the car for the times I need to break through a thicker layer of snow to get things started, but that's OK. In general I appreciate this brush immensely.I was provided a review copy of this brush from the Amazon vine system.
I live in NH where it snows quite a bit, so I was excited to try this snow brush. I have tried every brush I have been able to find through the years, but this one is much more well made.  I only gave it 4 stars because you cannot extend the handle, it is pretty short. I have long arms but this snow brush still falls short of reaching over the roof and across the windshield to clean off snow.  I like the turning brush head, that is a cool feature but be careful of snow getting caught in the turning mechanism, though you can be a little forceful to get it back into place. I love the handle of this brush, better than any other snow brush handle. Sturdy, thick, no molded plastic, very comfortable and well made. I just wish it had a longer handle or could extend a little. Overall I really like this brush and will buy some for my kids.
A welcome replacement to my old hardware-store bargain-bin scraper+brush combo, the thick handle is easy to grip while wearing gloves (without the resulting ache from having to hold tight to a too-narrow handle).The brush is long enough for a decent reach on my cars but might be short for a taller vehicle.  The longer handle provides better leverage for scraping stubborn ice.The locking button means the brush won't change position suddenly.  I like the adjustable brush, since I use a different motion for sweeping off loose snow vs gathering the icy debris I've loosened with the scraper.The only problem is the minimal snow we've been getting in central Maryland the last couple of years, which is giving me few opportunities to use my new brush!  Recommended.
I received this brush just in time for a wet snow in our area. I also just acquired an SUV. Since this brush extends, it worked very well removing the wet snow from the roof of the SUV. The brush is stiff enough to push the snow very easily. That the head turns also allowed me to change from pushing the snow to sweeping the snow. This is a well-thought-out product that makes sense. The fact that it also extends means that it is compact when I need it to be and has a longer reach when I need help stretching to reach across the car. A great product from an innovative company! I have purchased OXO products over the years and I think that I should buy stock in this company; if OXO continues like this, it is a worthwhile investment. I trust their products because they work.
So many snow brushes I come across have a wimpy brush - with just a couple of rows of weak bristles that can do little more than dust off a little powder snow. The OXO Twister's brush is much more rugged than most I have used, usefully so. It managed fine with a couple of inches of wet, heavy snow. I like the twist feature, though the brush width is rather small for use perpendicular to the handle.The ice scraper blade is very rugged and works well - I wouldn't mind if it were a bit wider, but that's a tradeoff against scraping force.  The handle is solid and comfortable and usefully long.
Wow!!!!  This is a must have for all owners for the Honda generator. If you don't have one, go get one.
A must have for filling and draining the engine oil in a compact Honda generator.  It makes an otherwise messy job quick and clean.  Very well made.
If I don't write something here, Amz.com's relentless nagging 'write-a-review' prog will drive me nuts. Shiny. Threaded. Rubber o-ring. Eliminates mess.  There.  Happy?
Item works well for me on my EU2000is.  Nice not to drip oil.  I found it works also on my Honda 4 stroke lawn trimmer too.  Will try on my Honda lawnmower next.
This is a great way to keep your generator(s) clean. The oil drains without getting all over the plastic and makes for easy filling, just tilt the machine on its side and pour in your pre-measured amount of oil. The aluminum is very easy to clean up with some carb or brake cleaner. Though I recommend keeping the carb or brake cleaner away from the O-ring.
So I received them and they were mostly to long and didn't work correct, they also had contacts that were to far out so the leds wouldn't work as well.
Upgraded my interior lights to these and boy oh boy are they bright and really light up the interior!! Love them!!
These look very nice. One issue is 3 of them were DOA. Luckily I only needed 6 of them. I was going to keep the other 4 as spares. However, now I only have one. But over all they're pretty good!
I was skeptical as the price is one of the lowest you can find on the internet. I figured what the heck and pulled the trigger. I installed them in my camper and they look awesome. Put out a very clean/new age white light. Although they are dimmer then the regular bulbs i pulled out, they put out about 1/10th of the heat and use almost no electricity. i ordered 2 bags (10 per bag) and used all of them with not one bad bulb. Make sure if you stick them in one way and they don't work, just pull it out and stick in the other way.
Pros:- Good Light- Decent Fit in a 194 SocketCons:- Some of the lights are at a slight angle in the basesThese bulbs provide about a 5500-6000K color temperature, a nice cool white. I used them to replace the entry lights on my F-350 and they work great.These are good lights for a great price, I would recommend them.
We replaced the incandescent bulbs on our RV.  These are great replacements for the marker/clearance lights.  They are plenty bright and with the center LED shining straight out, they are really visible.
Bulbs are bright and really updated the interior of my Denali. Easy to install. Adds bright light to the foot wells too.
these lights are bright and I have replaced all the 194 bulbs in my truck that I can find will probably be ordering another batch.
These all work. People who claim they don't work or have bad ones need to reverse the polarity and they should work right away. Make sure your socket on your car is loose as that would be your fault not the bulbs.Bulbs come in sealed bag with a cheap printout sticker on it.  (fake brand of course)Lights are pure white.They are NOT as bright as other bulbs I have had. I have attached pictures.Hope this helps!
For what it is, it works perfectly.  I wish it actually came with its own real software instead of downloading different apps until you find one you like.  But it is easy to pair with my phone, and pulls codes just fine.  Just be prepared to spend a few more dollars on software that is really worth anything.  I haven't found a free app that does much.
I gave this 4 stars because the CD that came with it was all scratched up.  Now, getting past that.....I love the actual scanner.  It works very good with my HTC Rezound.  Lots of cool features and I can diagnose my vehicles in MY OWN GARAGE now.  Great tool for the price.
Worked right away for me once I figured out what the pair code was.  It is 1234.  Synced right up, no issues under Torque.Only suggestion would be to have an on/off switch so that you could leave this plugged in while car is turned off so it doesn't drain down your battery, and it also would be nice if the unit was physically slimmer.  Though at the price here, I'm not knocking any points off for this since it was significantly less than the competitive units.  Overall good for occasional use.
Works very well with free OBDII Torque App on Android. Connects to my 2011 Subaru WRX with no problem and I can read many different values, including error codes. Just great.
You need to be somewhat of a tech geek to get this to work.  There is NO documentation/instructions supplied with the unit. A CD with some freeware is provided but I couldn't get any of it to work.  Finally had to go to the app store and get Torque or Torque pro to get it to pair and begin talking to my tablet.  Offers good features for $11 (plus and software you may buy).
This is one of those products that is just amazing for the price. I opened the box, which contained nothing more than the ODBII scanner and a mini CD.1) I downloaded the free app &#34;Torque&#34; on my Android phone2) I started my Chevy Avalanche and plugged in the scanner under the steering column.3) I paired the scanner to my phone using code &#34;1234&#34;So easy even an adult can do it. Lots of widget options for displaying the vehicle data: graphs, dial gauges in many different styles, or real-time lists. Also uses your phone's accelerometers to measure acceleration and g forces in x,y,and z axis's.Shows faults (when your check engine light comes on) and describes the problem.  Also allows you to clear the check engine light.I didn't even load the CD on my PC. With a little inquisitiveness and patience it is easy to figure out.Five Stars for a tough, inexpensive reader, that provides a ton of information at your disposal .Highly Recommended
I recently bought one of these on because of the Black Friday sales going around. It worked and gave me quite a bit of live info on my 2008 Scion XB, however I noticed that two sensor readings were unaccurate. It was the vehicle speed sensor and engine rpm data, the vehicle speed readings were off by a value of 8 and engine rpm is off by 100 RPMS.
I like this one. I can use it with my I-phone (you must e-mail the company for instructions on how to and your phone must be Jailbroke).I can run mine on my Pioneer app radio and use the gauges to monitor items I cant on my vehicles dash.
I used this for my emblems and they did exactly what it was supposed too, and has help protect the emblems.
i purchased this to use on white plastidip i had used.  i was hoping the clear coat would give the white a more protective layer so it would keep the smudges off but it didn't help.  it does give the white plastidip more shine but thats about all you get from it.this may work best for dark colors but definitely didnt do anything to help the white.for my application it didn't work but may be great for others
I plasti-dipped some parts of my car and am doing the rims now.  The plasti-dip is fairly matte and doesn't look right for what I'm doing.  The glossifier goes on nice and smooth and gives a nice shine to the parts.  It appears to be as durable and easy to clean up as the rest of the plast-dip family, so that's a plus.  Anyone looking to do some dipping and not looking for the flat look - plan on doing 2 or 3 coats of this stuff over top to really get the depth and sheen a car deserves.
My son plasti-dipped his chrome grill (2010 Ford Fusion) to black and was originally looking for a gloss finish. We used 1 1/2 cans of this stuff trying to get it and ended up with an semi-gloss finish which in the end looks great.
Nice amount of gloss added to the rims after i coated them with Teal Dip. If you are looking for a little gloss effect go with this. After i purchased i noticed it was also available at Advanced Auto Parts for a little less.
Plasti dipped my rims and used this on top to give it a bit of a shine.  It's been a couple of months and they still look pretty good.  I've read that the glossifier wears off after a while, so I might need to do a little respray soon.  Still have 3 cans left and did about 5 coats on each rim with the other 3.
Fast shipping, nice product, looks great on the RZR. Used for off road light switches. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone.  Thank you!
I used these for my ATV to turn LED lights on and off.  These have clips on the side that help mount if you cut the correct sized hole.
Nice little lighted switch that is easy to install just drill the right sized hole and pop it in. Plug on wires and there you go.
I needed a couple of toggle switches for some items added to my 4-wheeler. When I ran across these, it seemed that they would work out just fine for what I was needing. Small, compact, out of the way, no "eye-sore" to stand out , plus...they have this little blue light that comes on when powered up. They came in a quantity of five switches, so I ordered them. Pretty good price too by the way. Now....I did read some of the reviews on these switches and a few folks were disappointed because of the light either not working at all or it going out shortly after installation. Well...like I mentioned, they are fairly inexpensive and they did look good, so....I ordered them. When I did get the switches, I was kinda curious to know the correct way to wire them in order for it to work right as well as keep the little light working. There were no instructions included with the order either. So....I got on--line and looked up wiring diagrams for lighted toggle switches. There you will find all kinds of info about wiring them. Low and behold....I found a diagram of the same switch I had ordered. After looking it over good, I had no problem with the wiring of these little switches. They work just as I was hoping. So-far.....the little blue light comes on every-time I turn the switch on. It may go out today or tomorrow, but it works like it suppose to now....lol I know a little about wiring from the things I have done in the past, but I still have to go back and research on some of what turns out to be simple things every now and then. Never hurts to check. Always learning though. I would recommend these to anyone wanting a small but attractive little toggle switch.
I had the terminals break off on 2 of them when pressing them into the mounting holes. Not exactly the strength of older better quality stuff. Works fine for low amp circuit use though.
I really liked the switches. Made a whole dash board piece out of them and now I have switches for everything. The fog lights, the light bar, the winch, ect. It was really handy to have so many for a cheap price.
I used these for my video surveillance system to turn cameras on and off, as well as a remote power switch for the DVR and wireless router.  They have a positive click that is easy to tell that you turned a unit on, as well as a subtle LED that lights when power is on.  These work great and I had to only drill a single hole for mounting with a small filed notch for the retainers.
Anything but red or amber please. These swtches  are a little stiff and best suited for a dash installation. The action is firm and positive. I ordered a set of blue ones too.
These are  exactly what I needed to control 4 computer type fans that I use to cool, and exit hot air from a compartment in my motorhome. In this way I'm able to control each fan individually.
I need some switches (12 volt) for my travel trailer for lighting, etc.  The stores that specialize in supplies for RVs want an arm and a leg for small switches, so I went with these.  They are compact, seem well made and install easily thru a 3/4 inch plus hole.  You will need 3 push-on 1/4 inch female connectors for each (only 2 if you do not care about the pilot light) switch installation.  They do come in other pilot light colors besides green - also on Amazon.
The bulbs worked very well. I replaced the standard 12V bulbs with the new LED 2W 12V bulbs and still had great light with great engery savings for dry camping.
Very brightLow wattageCheapFast deliveryUsing as lamp in RV. Will soon replace all lights with these LEDs.
I purchased this to try and replace a blown brake light bulb in a 2012 VW Jetta SportWagan. The fit was good but it was not as bright as the stock incandescent bulb. I forgot to check and see if this triggers the "Brake light out" warning. While it may be faster acting than an incandescent the third center brake light is already LED so I have the speed. I'll take the brightness of the stock bulb for the other two.Also the brake light was a bit more pink than i would like due to the cooler color temp of the LED. Finally it made an interesting many points of light effect with all the individual LEDs reflecting out.
I ordered a bunch of these bulbs to replace all of the incandescent 1156 bulbs in my camping trailer. The incandescent put off a nice bright light, but they were so hot, they caused the light fixtures to melt... So, I was leery of going to LED, but I figured I would give it a go. The color I chose was &#34;Warm White&#34; because I didn't want the bulbs to be too harshly colored. (I don't like the blue-white color some LED's put out. It's too &#34;cold&#34; looking.)Anyhow, I installed these bulbs in my trailer, and they are practically indiscernible from the incandescent bulbs both in light output and color. They don't get nearly as hot as the incandescent bulbs do (they just get warm), and the power consumption is very much reduced. With the incandescent bulbs, I would have half of the lights on, and my trailer's power converter's fan would turn on. Now I can have all of them on, and the fan doesn't turn on. If I were running off of battery, I'm sure I would see a significant increase in battery life.So, long story short, or in the words of the net, TL;DR,Buy these. They are great. You won't be disappointed.
Ordered the for our RV and they are fantastic!  They give off a bright white light with a blue tint to them.  I do not really like the blue tint but I will deal with it. They do not get hot so that saves the light covers.  I would recommend this light!
These bull rings are amazing.  They fit exactly on my 2010 F-150 and I was able to install 4 of them (one in each corner) in under 5 minutes.  They seem very rugged and do not rattle much in the pockets.  They retract and stay up for a user friendly experience.  These were half the price of the OEM Ford bull rings and the same quality and fit.  I would highly reccomend this product to anyone.  Do not hesitate to purchase.  You will not find anything close to the fit and finish for the pricepoint.
Received my order promptly and installed them in minutes. I have an F150 and the bed rails are raised up off the tops of the bed so I had to put some rubber strips under the rails to keep them from being pulled down when I tightened the anchors. Once the spacers were installed, the anchors look great and the rails are not sunken in.  My neighbor has the same truck and wants to order the same ones for his truck now.
I bought the  ProGrip Bull Ring because the product made good sense.  The product comes on a hard piece of plastic with all nesasary instructions, the cool part is to take the ProGrip off of the plastic , is how you install it in the stake hole. It's like they are pre-programming you before the install &#34; brilliant&#34;. Any way quick and easy to install and I love that the bull ring snaps up and stays up.
glad I pick this set, they were a little cheaper so I wasn't sure. they came today. I install them in my new Tundra and they are looking good. not real heavy duty but will work just fine for me not being a big rig. when installing them take the 2 screws all the way out and they drop in nice and easy. they do however stick out from my tri fold cover just a little(1/4&#34;) but I see no trouble with that. they came fast. I am happy with my pick.
Purchased these for my 2013 Silverado. They fit great and took all of 5 minuets to install. They seem sturdy and look like they will hold up. Just take care and time when installing them to ensure you have good placement and do not over tighten as you might strip the screw.
I live in Southern California where it is sunny everyday this summer has been around 90's with some heat waves of 105+ days.  I purchased this June 26th, 2012 and now it has completely fell apart.  This product is very cheaply made and is evident as soon as you open it.Cons:-Its so thin and cheap that when it actually gets heated up by the sun it turns into thin paper and just bends easily which can cause it to fall out of your window-After two months the black felt around the edge of the sun shade has started to flake off causing a horrible mess in my car every time you remove the shade more comes off.-Also the eyes and other color now flakes off so there are a bunch of holes in the shade on the painted sidePros:-It was cool for the first month I had it until it started to fall apart.
It fits well in a 00'-05' Mitsubishi Eclipse. It blends in well if you have a black car, only downside is that it can get really hot because it doesn't really reflect the heat. I still find it neat.
This is so adorable!  I drive a Jeep Grand Cherokee and it fits very well.  There are suction cups to help hold the top in place which don't hold when it is sub zero temps but in summer it rocks. So cute!It looks pretty much like the picture shown. If you haven't used a sun shade before it is a 'must have'. I have black interior...absorbing all the heat it can. This blocks the sun and really helps keep the car a LOT cooler. I also don't want my interior to fade.  Bottomline..this is so cute!
Does the job and looks great, Keeps sun our of front and dash and thus what more can I say, It does what it is suppose to do,
My only gripe with this is that the dimensions unfolded are unlisted in the item description. This is very large and easily covered the entire windshield in our small SUV.
I am sure I left previous feed back here regarding this item but i will leave again, this cover for my personal license plate was just what i needed to safe keep my plates, they are custumed  license plates.
Put it on and it looks nice.  Have had no one back into it, and hopefully no one will.  But it looks like it will do its job.  Well made, and installed easy.  So far so good.  Not the cheapest thing though . . .
I thought it would look bad, but it makes the car look nicer as is not as noticeable as one would think. The 2.0 looks a bit sporty of you ask me, but I'm not too sure about the XL. It's a must have if you want to keep your plates straight and bumper scratch free. It doesn't protect everything, but it helps...I might have to get tape for the sides that are exposed since parallel parking requires coming in at an angle...not straight. This only helps against like-body vehicles (not SUV vs Sedan) and straight approaches. They should make an invisible tape for the sides!GREAT PRODUCT!
I imagined this would be a heavy solid rubber absorber.  Quite the  contrary.  It is very light and not as ugly as I expected.  It should do a fine job with straight bumper parkers.
Installation is minimum, just remove the existing screws and place it on top. This is a cheap way to prevent people backing up to your car (or you hitting someone) The frame isn't that big and barely noticeable if you have a darker color car. If they offer free shipping, I would give it 5 stars.
I got them to replace some dashboard lights that went out on my Honda Accord, and they fit the bill.
I installed 2 of them to my mitsubishi Eclipse 03. one in the glove box and one in the cubby hole/ storage.
Love the product, just wished I had gotten then earlier, I would recommend them to anyone wanting to replace the lights in their dash
Ordered these by mistake....(Not the first time I have done something like that.) Turns out these are of the &#34;MINI&#34; size. Thought to myself ..Hmmm where the heck will I find a use for these. Few days later I needed to replace some dash lights and BANG!!!! these fit those tiny sockets back there. Wow!!! thought these were going to tool box junk.
These are great for replacing your dash gauge cluster bulbs and they enhance the light by 10x.  For the price you can't go wrong.
Got these to swap my indicator lights on the motorcycle. It was hard to see the stock 1.7W bulbs during the day (even the 3.4W on high beam indicator). These are way brighter and I can see all the indicators clearly during the day and they are NOT blinding me at night.A few extras for people who are interested:The bulb is a single lens SMD5050 that operates at ~3V and draws ~30mA. In order to allow it to work with 12-14V car installations, there are two resistors in the bulb housing, 180 Ohm each. So the total power draw is 420mW at 14V, out of which 90mW ends up in the LED to give you the light.So far I have not noticed them turning blue over time or anything like that. Nice, bright white, probably around 5000K.One bulb came in slightly damaged (wires were embedded in the plastic housing), but I was able to fix it with a pocket knife.I'm very satisfied with these.
I have been running Mobil 1 0w-40 in my 2009 VW Rabbit for some time. And while I have never doubted the protection it provided, I was always noticing valvetrain noise. Usually on cold-ish starts, or a warm start when the oil has had time to fully return to the pan. Always a moderate ticking, or timing chain clatter. After much research on BITOG, I decided to buy into the German Castrol Fanboi club... according to most posters on there, this stuff is made with unicorn tears!They were correct. Not only does this oil fully meet VW 502.00 specs, but I noticed an IMMEDIATE reduction in engine noise, that is only getting better with time. Very impressive.The price on Amazon is about what I paid at my local Autozone for 6 quarts. I'll buy from here next time. Use this oil with confidence.
It's one of the few 0W30 Euro formula oils I can get my hands on. Great anecdotal reviews over on bobistheoilguy.com, and the best price I can reliably find on the oil.It's still expensive, and my car will also take 0W40, which can be found on steep sale for significantly less. But for now, this is my go-to.
Switched from Mobil1 0W-40 to this.  Can't say I notice a difference, but from the studies and reviews on both oils, the Castrol 0W-30 seems to be better.  What do I know.  I just know I always go with European-spec motor oils that begin with 0W.  It performs best in extreme heat and cold, and maximizes engine performance.
It is really awesome. It is first time I bought Castrol oil for my bmw335i sedan. Before buying, I searched lots of information of engine oil capacity and knew that 7 Quarts would be needed for an oil change.  However, Amazon.com only has 6 quarts package on sale.I had no way but to buy 6 quarts first and try to buy remaining if needed at local store.  To my surprise, after pouring 6 quarts to the engine and check the oil level, it miraculously indicated the oil level was between min and max, which meant I didn't need to buy more. How come? I double checked and confirm that everything was perfect after one month driving later on.  I guess Castrol oil is trusted.  They are making honest business. Their oil capacity for a bottle is really really enough or even exceeding 1 Quart.  Not like other brand, which are stealing oil from consumer.
Looked like the old harness except much more hardy.  Easy to install.  Just use a mallet to pop them in.  Maybe this was overkill but since my rear knock sensor was rusted (meaning water had been leaking in there), I cleaned it out put the new sensor on.  When I put the new harness on, I added some RTV around it to insure that they didn't leak over time.  I'm not a mechanic, just something I felt would help because getting the intake manifold off is a pain!
Figured I should buy this while I had to replace the knock sensors. Recently purchased a 2004 Tahoe Z71 that had the knock sensor codes and was recommended by many others to replace the harness while I was working under the intake. Well, I certainly NEEDED to replace it as I barely pulled on the rear one and it just fell apart in my hand. The front was fine but rear, almost crumbled in my hand! Was very glad these were perfect fit, length, etc. They came shipped in nice packaging and easy to install. I recommend the http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002UEN1U/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_5 to place on top to help prevent any further water from entering into the knock sensor chamber and deteriorating the new harness and sensor. Highly recommend this harness from this vendor.
Amazon says this does not fit my truck but it does. It was a perfect fit for my 2002 Chevrolet 2500HD crew cab with 6.0L gas engine. the stock harness was frail and allowed water to get to the knock sensors. I replaced the harness and both sensors and now everything is good as new.
4 year review . check engine light came on i went to auto zone and they checked the error code and it was knock sensor . ordered this from amazon to replace the knock sensors.  when i took the old knock sensor out one was so corroded the wire was no longer attached and the other was corroded too. replaced with this and everything works now and been running strong for a few years should last a long time. its a lot of work and have to remove a lot to get to the knock sensor. GM has a installation bulletin on replacing the knock sensors. i also replaced all the gaskets and all parts the bulletin suggests to replace wile installing new knock sensors, been running since i replaced them for just over 4 years now no issues. a quality product
The harness comes with rubber seals and is an exact replacement for the original harness. If you are building up an LS engine to swap using an OEM harness this will do the trick.
I put 2 of these in my 2008 GMC's rear bumper for the plate. They are brighter and whiter than the original 168/192s. A nice feature is they are slightly shorter than the original bulbs - by maybe 1/16&#34;. Although these LEDs are directional and not exactly pointing towards the plate, the reflector in the lamp housing bounces enough of the light towards the plate and hitch ball mounting area. It takes maybe 5 minutes to change both bulbs. The price is right and shipping was quick.Just a reminder for newbies: if the led doesn't work at first, reverse the bulb in the socket.
I'm glad the envelope or the product did not explode.The two bulbs were stuck together with a cut line in between so I had to separate them.The bulbs are bright enough to illuminate the license plate. I was using x4 SMD LED bulb but this one has more chips therefore is about x1.5 brighter than the previous ones.One minus star for being made & shipped from China.
they are a pure white light, but they aren't as bright as my stock ones I had in there....they are about the same size at 194 bulbs but they are wider.  these might work in something else somewhere else in your car, but for cargo lamps, it might be a good idea to buy something else that is brighter
This is perfect for a 194/168 bulb replacement, where you need additional light....about 20x more light (bright white).  Great for Trunk/cargo, map or dome lights
I used these to replace the dome lights on my RV.  They are directional and run VERY cool.  The filament bulbs ran so hot they melted into the sockets.  These will not do that.  Directional output.
Burned out within a few weeks. Noticible burn inside unit, discoloration. Thermal protection does not work. Seller has not responded with any replacement or warranty info.
Original review: I have these in my RAM pickup as backup lights.  Even though the lenses are shining up in the reflector, they throw MUCH more bright white light than any other LED setup i've tried.UPDATE:  Ordered these in March, installed them about 2 weeks after they came.  Tonight (6/29) the passenger side reverse light completely failed - no strobing, no flickering, simply will not light and the remaining bulb was VERY hot.  Apparently these bulbs, although substantially brighter, are not ready for prime time and obviously cannot be cooled properly.  I replaced the bulbs with the original LED's I had installed and will avoid this vendor in the future.
I have a back up camera that doesnt have night vision so I added these ligts. So far so good. No complaints. I will post in six months to see if they dont burn out since the details claim overheat protection. Brighter than OEM on a Toyota Tundra 2012. I cant vouch for any other vehicle.12/09/2012 These lights are still working. They are still as bright as the day I bought then.3/5/2013 These lights are still working.9/24/2013 still working!3/18/2014 the leds i bought still work. I NOTICED THAT THE PRODUCT I BOUGHT IS NO LONGER THE SAME ONE I ORIGINALLY REVIEWED. I cannot vouch for the current 921 led buld that is being sold
Bought these to replace the light on the range hood of our RV.  It's only OK.  We ended up supplementing this with an additional light bar to finally get enough useable light to cook with.  As the star rating state, It's only OK.
Wanted these to go in my f150 third brake light cargo bulbs.  They are brighter than the stock 921s and the color is much more usable.
I used these in my wife's 08 Camry. Much brighter than stock. Bulbs are like mini projectors. Put out useful light that makes a difference at night.
I wanted brighter backup lights for my 2007 dodge Ram 2500.  These are much brighter than the original bulbs and they are also a whiter light which is fine with me.  I had no problems installing them.  Very happy with the purchase.
Ok, these bulbs are not the brightest.  But cheap and 20 of them so why complain.  Blueish tint.  However in the Living Quarter (RV) Horse trailer there were 8 double bulb DC lights.  I could only use a few of them at a time because of power draw.  So while the 12V regular bulb was brighter I was limited on how many I could use at once.  With these LEDs I can use all of them at the same time - and while individually not as bright, when using all the lights spread around the area I have a more natural consistent lighting.  And using a voltmeter using all 16 LEDs at once draws less volts than 2 of the regular 12V bulbs.  So HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY
I replaced some of the 921 style incandescent bulbs in my travel trailer with these LED versions. Now, I definitely prefer the &#34;warmth&#34; of an incandescent bulb to the cold white light of an LED , but in some situations I'm really trying to conserve my battery life on a long camping trip , so these ultra-low wattage LEDs are just the ticket.  Many of the light fixtures in my trailer are a dual lamp design, so I can leave the standard bulb in one side and put the LED in the other, and use either or both as the situation requires. It's a cool setup that allows me to really dial down my battery use when necessary, but still have plenty of light available .  I bought a 20-pack of these and had one defective bulb in the bunch, and I can live with that at the low price point.
Sorry to say but these bulbs are very dull and a few I had to toss.. do to them burning up. I must say some of you poeple making comments must have No Idea about LEDs. The bulbs are cheap garbage. If you want true good bulbs goto superbrightLEDs. You spend a bit more but you get what you pay for. Buy 2 from superbright then compare it to these. I love the pictures they have up showing how bright they are and it makes me laugh cause just think about it you get 20 bulbs for 10 buck and superbright has 1 for 5.95 and its really bright and guaranteed for life plus not China made.
I bought these to replace my dome lights in both vehicles. So far so good! I like the bluish white light they produce. Not to mention they dim as well when dome lights are shutting off!
these lights are really nice i love it. way better then the stock dome lights in the car..2 times brighter then the original lights. i put it in 3 cars. Thanks guys
These are very well made SMD LEDS for 3rd of the cost from any other online retailers.  Very bright as map/dome lights. Replaces 194/168 style wedge bulbs.
Nice white lights at a great price. Not that much brighter than stock. In a clear lense they are bright white but in a housing like a high mount stop light they are a little dim compared to stock. Also the T10 base fits a little loose in the socket so when you install them over the licsense plate on a trunk lid they can wiggle loose when you shut the lid. I hope they last forever as stated.
Bright enough, and install was as easy as installing a light bulb. I'm using them in my Skoda Octavia Scout, which is similar to a Jetta Sportwagen. I am only using them on the interior so to avoid error codes as some people report. They shipped to APO, so I'm happy. However 1 bulb of the 20 was a different color than the others. More warm than blue/white.
I am trading out all of my interior lights in my RV trailer. I ordered these as part of a conversion plan and tried them in my unit. They are bright white, but put out a limited amount of light. Some of the units did not work, but it was not worth my time and money to return them. They did not meet my exact need, but they could meet your need and you would like them.
I have bought the 10 pack a couple of times now. Seems I'm always having a place to put them and they work good. They are polerized tho so if they don't turn on turn them around.
I have replaced nearly every accessory light on every vehicle I own, including my RV trailer.  They're most efficient at saving power, so I replaced every bulb on my trailer with these.  I had extras left over, and began to replace all the similar bulbs with these LED type.  Since they save volts, you can extrapolate that they'll cause your alternator less strain to keep you 12 volt system topped up.  That means better fuel economy.  I'm not sure that the amount of fuel that is saved can be easily measured, but it has to be something.  Additionally, these things last nearly forever, so when you replace that burned out bulb, that will be the last time you'll have to do it.
Works well. Brighter than the incandescents.Question: If incandescent light bulbs have been replaced by CFD and LED lighting, why haven't automotive bulbs also been replaced by them? Isn't it a government mandate or something to eliminate incandescent use?
I have converted my motorcycle to all LEDs and I am really enjoying the power savings. These are working perfectly with no issues so far. If anything changes I will update.
I used these in my John Deere D110 Lawnmower headlights.  They are much brighter then the incandescent 1156 bulbs that it came with.  Makes cutting when it's dark much easier, plus less drain on the battery with the lower wattage. I added pictures to the product image gallery also.
Very happy with these lights.  I had some rather small bulbs that were burning out due to vibration (custom turn signals on a motorcycle).  These went in as replacements and are brighter and have worked perfectly for a few months now.
junk don't buy
Using for front turn and back-up lights on a Peterbilt. They'll get a thorough shaking and testing. So far I like them. They are brighter  and more eye catching than incandescents. Durability will remain to be seen. Update later.
I purchased these to replace the headlight in my Deere mower/plow...These bulbs are super bright cool white in color and directly replaced my 1156 bulbs...you can't get a better bulb for the price...Highly recommend this product...Great Buy...prompt shipping...
Looks awesome as my DRL's for my MK6! Hopefully they last a little while considering the price but they definitely look good.
Used these to replace incandescent lamps in the RV. They draw much less battery power and are cooler to operate. Also throw more light.PS: They don't blink unless installed in the tail light blinker socket.
This LED light is great fits my infiniti QX4.really nice bright as well.. better then the stock factory one.i really like it. for the price you just can't go wrong.
These where shipped to the wrong address so I did not get then. As always, Amazon took care of this problem. Not sure if these are brighter, but after thinking about this, these bulbs do not look like they are water proof as the regular bulbs are. I was going to but these on my trucks tail lights (which a little water gets in the cover when I wash it with a pressure washer). Kind of glad these didn't make it here, but the idea is great.
I use them in my European camper so I can make the battery last longer when not plugged in to regular electricity. It works for me.
I have changed all the bulbs except headlights on my RV to LED.  These run hotter than others but work well.
I bought these to replace the bulbs in my trailer.  They are nice, but not as bright as the standard incandescent bulbs.  I can't really recommend these unless you are looking for an inexpensive LED replacement bulb.
Works flawlessly in every vehicles and ive tried it on big commercial trucks suvs and your every day work horse its a good deal and works like the other more expensive brands
I have only had to use this thing on three or four cars when a check engine light comes on. All but one will give you readings. Another car had the print upside down and backwards so I had to look in the mirror to read the codes.
Simple to use for anyone. Read codes, erase and clear Check Engine Light warnings.I would buy again! Need two more words.... Zombies are coming!
This 309 answers the  question early models didn't - what does the Code mean!  Previously, I either went on line to the Codes List, or to a list I compiled from research.  It is so relatively inexpensive, and gives you a leg up if you have to take it to a garage for work.  I highly recommend this, you could save yourself time and money in the future.
I had to return this scanner because of intermittent on & off.  I also tried to find out onlineaboutthis model MS309 and I could not register the item if I wanted to because item came from China with no registration possible for this scanner
this little scanner really does work. I was worried for under $30 it was not going to work. It however does. I've seen some of these devices go up in the $200's or higher. What a great little device at a great little price. I would recommend having this for your car. It has come in handy and saved me so much money.
I bought this because I was having an intermittent problem with my truck that the repair shop couldn't duplicate.  The &#34;service engine soon&#34; light would come on and go off.  Because it would go off, the repair shop couldn't read the codes and diagnose the problems.  Anyway, I kept it in the truck until the &#34;service engine soon&#34; light came on again.I plugged it into the port, got the codes, wrote them down, typed them into MSWord, showed them to the Service Manager, and tomorrow I'm taking it to the shop.Life is good
how often do you really need one of these things, most autopart stores will check out your codes, I bought this as a just in case fo my tool box, no complaints, worked fine
Wow this wax spray is awesome. It creates a great shine after applying. The car looks like it got a professional detail. It had the &#34;wet&#34; appearance look. You can even use this on your windshield. It acts as rain X! I was an avid user of the Meguair spray wax but from now this is my go to wax.
I really like this product!  It does exactly what it says it does.  Goes on easy, comes off easy, and leaves a great shine.  Very happy here.
Great product ...used it already, great results...did my complete Black Chrysler 300 in about 20 minutes, not even a one beer job....ICE products are all great because they're clear, no residue to show up later...good price also
I bought this Turtle Wax ICE spray wax for the specific reason that it says on the bottle "Synthetic Formula Prevents Water Spots". I have used this Turtle Wax ICE spray wax twice on my jetski and it is still water spotted every time I take it out of the water.Before I took my jetski to the lake this time, I used 3M's Marine Cleaner/Wax first to remove any old water spots. Then I liberally applied the Turtle Wax ICE spray wax and wiped it off. I did this twice just to make sure I had applied enough. Got back from the lake and the jetski is water spotted everywhere. Obviously the jetski gets wet but not much different than a car in rain or splashing through puddles of water.I would be satisfied if the water spots came off easily but they don't. I am going to have to use the 3M Marine Cleaner/Wax to get the water spots off again. But next time I will use Eagle One's NanoWax spray wax instead. That is what I use on my two other boats (20' and 16' both fiberglass) and the water spots come right off with another application of Eagle One's NanoWax spray wax.The bottle of Turtle Wax ICE spray wax calls it the most advanced wax yet and that it has a "Synthetic Formula that Prevents Water Spots". Maybe I just got a bottle of water or they forgot to put in the ingredient that prevents water spots. I'll just use it on my lawn tractor as it rarely gets used in the rain.Overall a very disappointing spray wax product that is way over-hyped.
I've use the Ice products before so I knew what to expect. I'm disabled, but still want a detailed and protected car. This goes on easy, comes off almost as easy. So I go around the car three times. First apply, second remove, third buff. The car looks great and beads up for nearly six months or more. The one draw back is it won't clean, but there are other things for that.
i use these on my girlfriends 05 impreza my 04 wrx and my moms 01 impreza,these filters are great oem quality and its a fantastic deal,oem quality and the correct bypass valve plus who doesn't love blue?&#34;
It's a standard Subaru oil filter, they are a safe bet but don't plan on using the washers if you have a 13 WRX they aren't going to fit.
I'm only through one filter but these are Subaru premium filters and they work wonders. Used these on an old Subaru after I seafoamed it and changed the oil. I will end up buying more of these in bulk when I run out.
You can't beat the price for these. These OEM filters are much better than the aftermarkets like K&N, plus who wants to spend $10 ea for a filter. A definite must buy for Subaru owners.
Great price for a few OEM Subaru filters which should last a couple years.  Bring this and your own oil to the dealer (or other service location) and they won't rip you off for a lot more money to provide their own oil and filter.
Worked like a charm for both of my Subaru's. I will get them again in years to come. I will say this though, they make terrible shot glasses...
This fits a 2004 Ranger step side well but is a little narrow and almost allows you to remove the tailgate by sliding the lock to the side. I didn't like that there was so much slop so I made a spacer out of a 1in (inside diameter) washer 1/8 thick, I had to grind a flat on the outside of the washer for clearance but it did take care of the excess slop that some reviewers are getting.I also had some flat rubber left over from a previous project and cut it to fit the washer and glued it to both sides of it using silicone adhesive. You may have to use 2 or more washers if the gap is wide or better yet find some kind of metal stock and make one. I know it's a pain in the *ss but sometimes you have to improvise.As per some of the other reviewers here to offer protection from the elements, and to protect the paint, I cut an old bicycle tube twice as long as the lock and used it as a protective sleeve around the lock folding the excess length over the top after squirting some WD40 into the key hole.After reading all the reviews it seems that there was a change in the construction material used, the lock I received was all metal except for the plastic around the radius, I presume it is to help to keep it from scratching the hinge. Otherwise it does seem to be a secure deterrent, enough to make a thief move on.The diameter of my hinge is 1 & 3/4.
With tailgate thefts on the rise around the country, you really just can't do without this. But you have a factory tailgate lock you say? Guess what? Those can easily be punched out! Do yourself a favor and buy this lock so your tailgate cannot be lifted off easily, and leave your tailgate lock unlocked so they won't be tempted to punch it thinking they will get the gate, only to find out you have this other lock.
Don't know if anyone's tried to steal my tailgate (I leave my truck parked outside my house in a upper-middle class neighborhood), but for the price and ease of install, this would seem to fit the bill.  Have only had it for several months, so time will tell how durable this product is...
Product came well packaged, and the instructions were easy to follow.Installation only took a few minutes with the easy instructions.Strongly recommended.
A little pricey... but just cool as crap!  Very simple idea... why didn't I think of that kind of thing.  No one gets my tailgate without a torch!
Why would anyone spend $15 to lock their tailgate on their truck?  After all the truck came with a tailgate lock from the factory.  The OEM factory locks will keep honest people from taking a tailgate, but if the bad guy wants it all it takes is a hit from a screw driver and punch the lock out.  Then simple walk away with your tailgate.This master lock is all metal construction, well built, fits perfect, provides the needed security at a bargain price.  If you want to remove your tailgate simply use the key to unlock the Master lock and proceed to remove your tailgate.With replacement tailgates costing up to and over $3,200 to replace, the price of this lock is darn out right cheap.  Will this $15 investment have saved me from having to pay my deductible?  I won't ever know now that I have it.  On the other hand I no longer have concerns about parking my truck and coming back to a missing tailgate.Make the investment and think of it as a one time insurance payment for your tailgate.
it was so easy to install. Great price too. hopefully enough of a deterrent to stop the casual criminal....for the rest...if I am there or near by, I have Glock 19 with 15 rounds that I can empty quickly. if I am not there,  I have insurance.
received quickly, tried to install but would not fit my truck. it obstructed the tailgate upon closing. Is sent it back for a refund with no problem.
This only takes seconds to install, I did not even know these locks existed until I purchased locking lugs for my jeep.  Definitely worth the price to protect your tailgate from theft.  Others shown are plastic and easy to break, this one is medal.
This device is as complex as falling asleep. Truly a no-brainer to operate. BUT...I have two concerns; one significant and one as yet un-proven.1) the device falls sideways as soon as I open the T/G, and because I don't notice (it's hidden unless I stand directly behind the right side of the truck) I end up damaging the paint when I yank up on the T/G to close it. (The device jams in the space and gouges the paint AND prevents the T/G from swinging up until I re-position it. Hardly the end of the world, but annoying as heck.2) I question how well it will resist snow/ice/water & freezing temps when winter starts here in southern Ontario Canada. The little flap that is supposed to cover the key slot seems to be hanging open every time I look at it, and since the key slot faces UP...I fully expect it to catch water (and be frozen all winter long) but this remains to be seen.
I installed this on my 2009 F150. It's a fancy padlock that's just barely wide enough to secure my tailgate. I haven't stuck the fuzzy velcro pads to it yet since I haven't taken a close enough look to see the best place to mount it. I can't hear it rattling when I drive. I'll probably just take a section of old bicycle inner tube and wrap it with that.
Recently in Texas and in my neighborhood there has been a big doom in tailgate robberies. I didn't get hit but, neighbors of mine did. This item was easy to install and I feel as though my truck tail gate is protected.
Nicely done gaskets often found to be one of the most elements neglected in an oil change which provide extra security in sealing the drain plug.
These are Genuine Toyota parts at a decent price. Not much else to say about these. They are oil plug gaskets
What's not to like? You should use a fresh gasket at every oil change, and these are inexpensive enough to make that happen. Just don't lose the other 4 in the interim... I keep the bag taped to the top of my toolbox.
Use this on a 1992 Camry 2.2. Used these in place of a plastic washer. Works great and will be buying more in the future.
They are what they're supposed to be!  They seem to do be doing their job and seal like they're designed to.  Not much more to say about a drain plug gasket.  They appear to be genuine Toyota gaskets.
You can't go wrong with oem parts although it was a pain getting the old one off, it does its job nothing special about gasket, cheap and filled my order
This pack should be a money saver because I keep cars for a long time. The gaskets fit right on the drain plug of my 2011 Toyota Sienna minivan. I like the rubber over metal design for a good seal.
Like it says, it's a OEM Toyota part(s)! I replace the crush washer every time I change the oil in my 2009 Camry SE V-6, so it is nice to see a pack of 10 washers. My local dealership wanted $2 each for these same ones, that is crazy! Buy them in bulk, you won't be sorry!
Not much to say here. A bit expensive but still cheaper than singles. I usually go two or three oil changes between changing the gasket. If you are careful not to over tighten,  the aluminum does not flatten out too much each time.
Just changed my oil and this fits perfectly into the oil drain plug for my Scion Xb 2006. I would reccomend this product,
I sometimes get 2 oil changes out of the drain gasket but at this price I'll change them at each change.Oh, yeah, they work fine.
These are genuine Oil Drain Plug Gaskets for Toyota cars .  The size for this gasket is 12 mm and they fit perfectly for my Prius oil drain plug bolt.
to save money, i only replace this washer/gasket every other oil change or unless the oldone look bad and bent. fit and performed just like the one came with the car.
here you get the same item as from the dealer but for a cheaper price.  Any soft metal or even plastic or rubber gasket will stop any leaks, but these look and feel nicer.  It's a reassuring feeling to know you've replaced this during your oil changes.
I am a retired auto mechanic who still performs a lot of my own work. Easiest maintenance any owner can perform is an oil change. I use synthetic oil and premium filters and have always replaced the "crush" drain plug washer. I have used several different styles of washers: a stainless steel washer that is similar to spark plug washers, nylon washers, fiber washers and aluminum washers. These washers appear to be the aluminum style with a coating on each side that helps seal the drain plug and oil pan surfaces. I feel these are inexpensive insurance against drain plug leaks and replace the washer on every oil change.
I try to always use only Genuine Toyota parts on my 1997 Toyota 4Runner (see my videos on Youtube under RedonKiLaus).  On my last oil change, the dealer was out of gaskets - but now I have enough for 10 oil changes.  That's probably about 5 years for me since this truck isn't driven every day.
They work great, but I was having a hard time finding them locally. Amazon came thru again and I have a supply that will last me quite awhile. They were a little on the expensive side, but it was well worth it, because they were delivered to my door step and I didn't have to run all over to find them.
Have been using Toyota/Lexus replacement parts in my 2011 Lexus RX350 since I got it.  Do my own oil changes so no need to see the dealership.  In fact, haven't seen them for years cause nothing goes wrong with the rest of this SUV.  Love saving the extra cash and I get to play with my tools at the same time!!!!
They're the gaskets that go to my car. They do their job. Not sure what else I can say about them.
bought these to do oil changes on my lexus es350 myself. they work great and area a great deal for the DIYer.
Need to purchase these separately to do an oil change. In my opinion a part like this costing pennies to manufacture should be included with the oem filter cartridge kit. Thus the one star deduction.
These are genuine Toyota parts, and they're supposed to fit on not only the engine oil drain plug but also the differential and transfer case plugs.  Most people don't replace those gaskets, but I do, and I recommend you spend the few extra cents it's going to cost for the peace of mind it offers knowing you've replaced a gasket.
I love these things!!  It is an absolute 100% must have for any pickup truck owner!!!  Easy to install.  First one I had for my old truck took me 30min to install.  The parts are very specific so read the instructions completely before installing.  The second one I installed on my new F250 went even faster.  I was done in 20min if that long.These tailgates in the full sized pickups are heavy!  My wife can now open the tailgate and not have to worry about trying to catch it or me worrying about her NOT catching it.  LOL  A simple pull of the latch and the tailgate drops down in slow motion.  Closing the tailgate is not affected at all.  The tailgate lifts up and closes as it always did.  So if you think it is going to make it easier to close...no it does not do that.  It just catches the tail gate as it opens to make it a simple 1 handed operation. I don't plan on buying a new truck for a long time.  But if I do I will order one of these immediately.
I bought this for my 97 F150 Stepside pickup. I thought it would fit based on Amazon's recommendation...It does not fit! The build quality is good! The instructions for the expanding nut that goes into the tailgate are lacking. It could be clearer. Amazon was great and was willing to take it back even though the nut is now permanently stuck on my tailgate.
I got one of the original designs and after about a year of relatively moderate use it rusted and failed.  Manufacturer replaced immediately now questions asked.  The second one is much more durable and works great.
Bought this product because it just makes sense,  a truck tail  gate is just plain dead weight.  the install was good and straight forward.  When you first close the gate and then reopen the gate ( hold on as usual) it falls down except for the last may be 8 inches then it coasts down.  The weight of  pressure is not printed on the DEE ZEE shock, 30 more lbs of pressure would be Better.  But the product does work, it helps on that last few inches on drop.  I like it.
Had high hopes for this item, but it does not live up to the hype !Install instructions were terribly vague, what's a nutsert ?calling the contact number helped, but after install the bottom nutsert pivot part failed within 3 openings.Called the contact number and while helpful, they concurred the instructions were an issue and made a few suggestions including sending another install kit...Since it would need to be drilled out and destroyed to replace, I tried to tighten the nutsert to see if it would work.With about twice as many turns as the instructions suggested, it still pivots from the weight and let's the bottom shock mount slip off and then the tailgate comes BANGING down.will be returning this.
THIS IS ONLY FOR A DODGE!GOT ONE!SENT IT BACK!I HAVE AN AVALANCH!  There"re page does Not give you a choice,although they say its "custom " fit for every vehicle. I called  DeeZee manufacturing and they do Not sell these amazon so watch your choices :-)
Dee Zee had to replace the nutsert that came with the package.  It would not tighten down.  Got a replacement from the excellent service support from Dee Zee.  The replacement worked perfectly.  Got it all installed and it works great.  Would have been 5 stars except for the nutsert that had to be replaced.Installed on my 2013 F350 DRW.
Whenever I get in front of one of &#34;those&#34; kinds of people, I love it. Me expressing how dumb their stick family is haha
I've got a couple similar constructed items on the back of my car, but this one is my favorite.  Installation was a breeze, I had no problems either getting the first backing off to stick to my car, or the second backing off that left it on my car.Very clean cuts for both the letters and the figures, and it sticks perfectly.  I love passing mini vans with the family stick figures on them and getting in front of them so they can see this.  Fun to see their faces in the rearview mirror. :)
I love this design, not too big, and fitted on to my passenger front side window just perfectly.  Sure to get many laughs
Got this for the wife a little while back, and she loves it.  It looks like it belongs right on the back of her van.
The decal is as illustrated, no profanities as the title may suggest.These are really easy to apply if you follow the instructions.Starting with a CLEAN surface.First rub the sticker with a plastic card (credit card will do) to ensure the image is pressed firmly on to the application paper.Next, peel back the backing paper to reveal the decal stuck to the application paper in reverse. Pull the backing paper off slowly, you'll have the backing paper doubling back on itself as you pull it backwards. Be careful if it is windy, you don't want the decal to fold and stick to itself.Position the decal on the window at one side (the bottom works best so you can ensure it is straight). Then use the credit card to smooth out the decal.Any minor bubbles can be smoothed out, and any that are left will disappear the next time it gets hots from the sun.These look really good.
I love this decal. I have one on each of my two cars. My wife tells me she constantly gets dirty looks on the road by others with a back windshield filled with a stick figure family. She sometimes passes cars that have them just to see if they react in the rear view mirror and to her amusement they do. Even people without the stick figure family get a good laugh out of this decal. While driving home one day a cop pulled along side me and asked me to roll down my window and to my amazement, asked me where I purchased the decal as he wanted to put one on his personal vehicle because he stated his wife had gotten carried away with putting stick figures on her car. Installation was breeze as the instructions were detailed and on point. Take your time and it will come out great. I would also like to mention, the decal has lasted numerous car washes and bad weather.
These are Not very bright they barely light up the cab probably wouldn't buy again. Must have measured the brightness real close.
very nice bulbs - really crisp lighting at night - slightly smaller connection points, but were easily adapted by snugging up the connections in the light fixture in the car - strongly recommended!
Some light replacement. Way brighter and much cooler white light.  Easy to put in.  Just slide in and aim. You won't be sorry
These bulbs are not as bright as my original dome light bulbs.  They do work and seem to be well constructed, just not practical for a dome light in my opinion.  I chose to go with a 36-LED panel light with a universal adapter instead.
These turned out to have more of a blue tint to them than I was looking for, the problem I have found in the Festoon LED's is that it is hard to match the color of the 194 bulbs.
Installed these in my 05 tahoe as previous other led bulbs started to flicker out. This bulb is bright, after replacing all my interior lights with leds these replaced interior dome light and back cargo area light. These are great and they have heat sinks on back which are a plus also.
The Bosch blade was easy to install and it did a great job while driving in heavy rain and wind gusts condition. They are as good and effective after 10 days of use as they were on day one.Each blade comes with clear installation instructions right on the packaging and I believe that I had it all done in less than one minute which is something given that I'm a little rusty when it comes to replacing wiper blades. Depending on how long-lasting these are, I'm likely to get the same make and model for a replacement but only time will tell.
I've been using Toyota wiper blades for the past two years and noticed they dont' hold up past around six months. I have read that blades need changing every six months and that seems to me like it's pretty often. The dealer's prices are higher than if I bought them here so from now on I will buy my wiper blades on Amazon. And I've always used Bosch until I got this Toyota, and go to the dealer because there for everything because it's nearby.I've gotten lazy.But I know Bosch wiper blades last longer than six months because they are the only brand I've ever used. I am a car person. I have had lots of old cars that I've restored and Bosch is the only brand I know. And they are silent. I don't like to hear the wipers on the windshield, scraping it.I was delighted to get some Bosch wiper blades and can highly recommend them.
We have been using this wiper for several weeks, and have been pleased with the performance of these blades. They keep the window clear even during the heaviest rains, and we have not experienced any streaks. Sunday we were forced to travel over 100 miles in severe thunderstorms, and these blades made it possible.They are easy to install and nicely made. Two thumbs up - one from my husband and one from me.
The Bosch 26-CA fits my 2004 Dodge Durango driver's side windshield wiper. Unlike conventional wipers. Beam wipers are made to "hug" the windshield and not allow debris, weather elements such as rain, snow or ice interfere with its smooth, streak-free and quiet wipes. They offer a more lower profile and the springs are completely concealed, so no more leafs getting stuck in your wipers.They are aerodynamic so that means less wind lift and they actually use the wind to increase the downward pressure and contact on your windshield. Once you try a Beam blade wiper like the Bosch Clear Advantage, you will never go back to a conventional wiper again.
About a week after picking up these Bosch Clear Advantage wiper blades for my truck, we had the opportunity to put them to the test. While most of the country was enjoying warm autumn weather, we had a storm front of sleet and snow here in northern Minnesota. The days we don't get sleet, we've been having rain.My husband has issues with squeaky windshield wipers. They bother him so much, he will just drive with low visibility rather than use wipers when they squeak. To him, the sound is as bothersome as nails on a black board is to others. Even the slightest squeak gets to him, so I had my fingers crossed these new blades wouldn't make any sounds. After removing the old blades and easily installing these Bosch Clear Advantage blades, we were elated to find they are whisper quiet. They were a perfect fit on our 2003 Ford F-150.They've done a great job of wiping away the rain, sleet and slushy snow we've had so far this year. They go on easily and are a great fit. Keep in mind that there is only 1 wiper blade in each package, so if your vehicle requires two blades of the same size, you will need to order 2 of these. Fortunately Amazon offers a Part Finder tool for automotive products, so you can enter in the make, model and year of your vehicle, and check to make sure the product you're buying is a match for your auto. You can use this tool to find exactly what size Bosch wiper blades are needed to fit your vehicle. Some vehicles require two blades of the same size, others require 2 blades that are each a different size. If you're uncertain what your vehicle requires, use this tool and it will identify what exactly you need to buy to achieve the perfect fit.
I've been purchasing the Bosch Icon wiper blade for several years, but this looks to be almost the same quality and is for all-weather condition, and it's almost half the price of the Icon.  Been very pleased with the Icons, but as everyone else I need to save where money.  Only negative I can give is it doesn't have the cover to hides the attachment to the wiper arm, but that's just cosmetic and so far it clears my windshield in one-swipe... only time will tell if they last as long as the Icon version.
Would highly recommend especially for MDX car people, its fits, works and looks like the OEM wiper blades that came with the car.  Installation is easy.  Would highly recommend again, as I said before.
These single point attachment blades are great, forget the cheap ones that have several attachment points, those eventually streak. These have constant pressure over the whole blade. I love them.
I didn't like my previous Bosch Icon blades. They always seemed to streak. Switching it out with this cheaper blade, so far this one seems to be working much better, plus it's cheaper. The connectors on the Icon seem a bit nicer, but the clear advantage went on very easily and still seems as secure as any other blade. Hopefully the performance of this blade will hold up better than the Icon did.
Update.The reason I was having cleaning problems with these wiper blades is because their OLD. I went to an auto store and replaced them and was informed of this...I noticed a color difference on the rubber part of the blade, these wipers were faded compared to actual fresh ones.I would recommend spending a few more dollars at a store to get new ones, or get the cheaper ones they work better then these. In my case.Now I'm out twenty bucks plus the price of the new ones.
these seem to work well, but we'll have to see about longevity.  they don't have the metal arm, but the newfangled plastic system thats SUPPOSED to hold the wiper down and last over time.  new they attach and work well - the lack of metal arm makes me nervous.  good reviews by others, but let's see if it will stand up for the year.
Used this on my Honda Accord passenger side. Removing my old wiper was tougher than putting on this new one. But be careful when mounting it on - there's a plastic module in the center that can fall off rather easily! At first I thought I had broken something, but then I realized it's like that by design. Seems rather cheap.Once I mounted it okay, it worked very well. The blade is curved in such a way that it hugs the windshield well.I've used this now in heavy rain and in light rain. In both cases it cleans the windshield very well and makes very little noise. In light rain is when I used to have issues with the old wipers (it would make lots of noise). But not so with these wipers.
These Bosch Clear Advantage Beam wiper blades were easy to install. They pretty much just click into place. The wiper blades seem to be well constructed out of good quality materials. They also look very durable. They function well giving streak-free glass. Overall, these are great blades at a great price. I would recommend them.
Over the years my replacement wipers of choice has been Bosch Micro Edge. I have found that the Bosch Clear Advantage Beam wiper blades to be superior to those wipers. They fit perfectly on my 2012 Infiniti G37. They also do an excellent job clearing the windshield.
This Bosch 17-CA Clear Advantage Wiper Blade works very well on the passenger side of my 2000 Chevy Caviler. This was my first time personally replacing wiper blades on this car but it was a very quick and painless process.Once installed, the wiper blade did a great job keeping the window clear in the very heavy rain we had the day after I put them on. Since I only put the new blade on the passenger side, it was clear that this is works better than the 4 month old one on the driver side (not sure of the brand Jiffy-Lube put on it) so I will by buying theBosch 22-CA Clear Advantage Beam Wiper Blade - 22"to even it up.Recommended!CFH
I have to admit it is hard for me to get excited about any product having to do with my car. But, this wiper works just like it should.  It installs easily and works like a charm in rain. It hasn't snowed yet, but it works very well in the rain.
There is nothing wrong with this product. It is overpriced so I took off one star.Installation is as expected
DifferentThe Bosch wiper blades use the new design that is replacing the old one.  The wiper arm and blade are one piece.  Bosch uses a bracketless wiper design, and other manufacturers are doing the same.  The arm has a built-in spring and also a flat rubber blade attached as one piece.  The arm is curved to distribute tension evenly so it gets the whole middle of the windshield just as well as it clears the area above the pivot.Advantages*The wipe is smooth, especially compared against the other comparably-priced wipers in the category like the ones I've got in the past.*It's got a new kind of fastening mechanism that more easily clips on and off.  The goodness of this is ease of changing blades more frequently.*Supposed to be 40% longer-lasting, since it's got almost no moving parts unlike standard blade arms.*Supposed to be quite - although I didn't notice significant noise difference.Reasons not to get this wiper blade*If it's worth spending a little more to get the Bosch Icon blades, which use two types of rubber ("dual rubber process"- hard rubber for wiping and soft rubber for flexing).*If the purpose includes frequent off-road heavy duty including for mud.Summary: The blade design is excellent.  The blades have good value and are easy to change.
When I first looked up the size for my Saturn SL2, I found that the chart said a 20 inch size would work well for the passenger side.  When I went to the Bosch site, I found that it was recommended to get the 21 inch and I got upset.  I had already ordered the 20 inch size.The great news is that the wiper already on my car was 20 inches and this one fits and works beautifully.  The 21 inch would be too big anyway.  It was tricky to install at first, and despite being plastic in construction, it goes on well and so far has stayed on securely even in high wind.The wiper itself is a huge improvement over the other wipers that I have had, including Anco.  What I love about this wiper is that it hugs the windshield, but it also moves easily across the glass when there is barely any water on the window, or if the window is covered.The windshield is left very clear and easy to see through with no streaks or spots left uncleared in heavy and light rain.  I have not had any snow to evaluate winter performance yet.  I will update when I do.What I love most about these wipers is that they are SILENT.  No more squeaky wipers!  Everyone that has come in my car has remarked- "Those wipers are completely SILENT!  WHERE DID YOU GET THEM?"I have to say they are the first wipers I have ever had which truly are silent so far after a few weeks of using them.  So far they are my favorite wiper!
I've been using Bosch wipers for many years, and have been especially pleased with their ICON blade. It clears the windshield very well with no streaks, and does so with far less noise than any of the OEM blades I've had on my cars.While this new blade (Clear Advantage) is also excellent when it comes to clearing the windshield without any streaking, and it was very easy to install on my Infiniti EX. However, it makes more noise than the ICON. Rather than a hushed "wisp-wisp" sound, I get a small amount of chatter at the peak of the stroke. Not enough to be irritating, but certainly more than the ICON.I'll continue to use these, but will be replacing them with some ICONs when their useful life is over or if the chattering gets louder. While the ICONs are a bit more expensive, I think they are a better blade.
Very good quality blades. Perfect for my 2003 Toyota corolla. Works as described... there's nothing better. Recommended to anyone that will love to try it
I replaced the worn out Bosch Icon Wiper Blades on my 2003 Dodge Ram 1500 with a new set of Bosch Clear Advantage Blades. The first thing that noticed is how similar they are to my last set of Icon blades. The Clear Advantage blades are almost identical to the Icon blades. The only major difference is that the Icon blades have a cover that closes and covers the top part where they hook on to the arm. The Clear Advantage blades don't have the same cover and it's open so snow and ice can get in it and freeze. When I compare how well both blades work I can't tell any difference at all. The Clear Advantage blades work well in the rain but struggle when it comes to snow, sleet and ice. I had the same results with my last blades. These wiper blades are just fine during Spring, Summer and Fall but I wouldn't recommend them for winter. They like to streak and not provide a very clean window surface for viewing when it comes to sleet or icy conditions. Overall I like these blades because they work well most of the year and they are very priced reasonable. I don't really see any real advantage to getting the Icon Blades over the Clear Advantage blades so if trying to pick between the two I would go with these.
Wipes clean and true; no squeak, chatter, or smear. The curve on the blade is strong, much better than the old style multi-hinged metal blade holder that came on the vehicle. The pressure is applied evenly across the entire blade as it form fits the shape of the windshield. With this blade you can update your vehicle with the latest blade technology that you see on the new cars. Bosch claims most wiper blades should be changed every 6 months but these will last a year. I have never changed mine more often than 1 year intervals, maybe these will last longer?Installation was super easy, no adapter to change out, just remove the old wiper by pressing one clip and then installing this blade.
I purchased these for a 2005 Suburban and as others have commented in vehicles similiar to this one the passenger side blade doesnt touch the windsheild in last 2 inches or so of the blade since it doesnt fit contour of the windshield. Also when installed they really dont lock in place securely and I am afraid they might come off. I kept my old blades just in case.
Easy installation and good wiping. No complaints thus far.  Will update in a few months to report on how it held up.
These are great wipers. Easy to install and provides a clear windshield during bad weather.To me, it's just easier to replace the whole wiper than just to replace the blades. I don't have to worry about them coming back off.These are good quality and I'm pleased with them.
I use these on the driver side of a 99 Pathfinder.  They were easy to install and work great.  We had a lot of rain and these wipers never gave me any trouble.  I was able to drive safely in the rain without my visibility being compromised.  It also helped clear the light snow I had just fine.  I highly recommend these for your vehicle.
I love Bosch wiper blades.  The installation is always quick and simple, and the quality of the blade is incredible.  These blades do a great job of wiping the windshield without leaving streaks.  They're not too noisy either.I've been using Bosch blades on my pickup truck for a couple years now.  Replacing the blades on my wife's car with Bosch blades was a no-brainer for me.
I really like to wait a full season before I review these, but for a month they have been perfect. Good price to.
These wipers work great but I should have gotten one 21 instead of 20 for the driver side of the 1999 Durango thus allowing more access to area coverage on the windshield.
The driver's side windshield wiper on our family vehicle was starting to tear apart at the edges so I was happy to try these sample Bosch Clear Advantage Beam Blades.  Last week there were brief but heavy rain showers that allowed me to test new and old style blades side by side.Advantages I've noticed over old style wipers:>Less moving parts than old style metal framed blades.>Spring mechanism is the flexible beam itself rather than old exposed metal springs.>Lower profile for a less obtrusive, more modern appearance, also less likely to get damaged.>Uniform contact points conforms to highly curved windshields for more even wiping/cleaning.>Lighter and appears more durable. Old metal wiper frames tend to fade over time and the rubber blades tear away from the wiper assemblies.>Beam frame designed to create down force on wipers at highway speeds; stable, effortless clearing of windshield.>Lower noise and streaking so far.Overall:A design advancement if wiper design that provides superior performance, safety, and durability over old wiper designs.  Costs about double that of old design wiper blades. Good deal if these new Beam Blades last twice as long as old blades.
I installed this on the passenger side of my truck luckily 1 day before a week of torrential and much needed storms.  I can't give 5 stars because I don't feel there was any markedly significant improvement over my 2 year old wiper on the driver side.What I can say, is that this wiper is cleaner-appearing in that the "wiper body" is simple; it doesn't have the exoskeleton frame around it that your typical windshield wiper does.  It seems to rely on some curvature to keep it flat on your windshield.  Only time will tell if this curvature is maintained or if the "exoskeleton frame" on typical wipers is there for a reason and we shouldn't fix what is broken.Now, one improvement I have noticed that this wiper does NOT have and that's the inclusion of an aero-foil so that at highway speeds, the wiper actually stays on the windshield glass.  I have that on my weekend car and I have noticed a markedly signficiant improvement, the aero-foil really does keep the wiper on the windshield glass.I suppose if Bosch can keep the simple, cleaner-appearing non-wiper body plus adding a sleek aero foil, then at that time, it might be a 5-star wiper.  For now, this model is 4 stars.
It was not clear from the product description but these are fully enclosed blades designed to keep ice from causing them to lose contact. I live in a part of Arizona where I don't need that. Also, these are about the ugliest blades I've ever seen, big and blocky. I'm sure they work great in snow and ice but I don't need that. Also, they don't flex out at the tip as much as regular blades. The the outer 3&#34; did not even touch on the passenger side of my 2001 Tundra windshield with the blade at rest.
I use Michelin wiper for the driver side and Bosh for the passenger. After 2 months of heavy use this one doing well (almost no stripes). After a cold winter with lots of ice on a windshield every day I'd expect the rubber blade to deform and it did a little bit on Bosch. Good product for the money.
Windshield wipers need to work well when you need them. These wiper blades fit that bill. At least so far. They clean the windshield very well, in a variety of conditions. And they look like they are built well, so they will last.Too bad I can't tell you now how well these wiper blades work in a year or two. According to the experts, pretty much all wiper blades -- cheap or expensive -- clean windshields well for that long, but no longer.Given that, these wiper blades seem reasonably priced -- not the cheapest you'll find, but not too expensive either. The 24-inch blade we needed for the other side of our windshield cost a little more, about $15, so the set was about $30 in total. Shopping around, that's not bad.
These are GREAT windshield wipers.  After trying it out I bought them for all my cars.  Easy to install and work great.  My only complaint about Bosch is that they have a confusing product line and it's not clear which wipers to use.
Bosch Clear advantage Beam  wiper Blade is an excellent product It excells in heavy wind and rain. I love it ! Also it is not noisey like my old blades.They are very easy to install. And  No annoying squeeks. I wish I had gotten them sooner !!
I've put these to use recently in rainy Florida weather and they get the thumbs up from me. My windshield cleared without streaking, and they seem like they will hold up for a long time. These are very well made, and worth the small extra cost because I believe these are more durable and long lasting than the cheaper options.
Bought this as a replacement for the drivers side of a 2013 Hyundai Sonata. The wipers work great and much better than the OEM ones (which were thinner, did not last a year, and the plastic piece on top broke off). Installation was a breeze once I figured out how to unlatch it. Couldn't be happier. Oh and they are much sportier looking for sure :)
Bosch Clear Advantage Wiper Blade 20"These are your typical graphite-coated rubber blades with an aerodynamic body. I've used Pylon, Michelin, and Anco aerodynamic wiper blades in the past and generally speaking, they all worked flawlessly for the first year. Then, the spring pressure gets weak and they begin to either chatter or streak. I've found from experience that replacing blades every 1-2 years is a good idea to prevent problems in the winter when the blade rubber tends to get stiff.These Bosch blades work great so far, but wiper blades generally don't show problems until later in their life. The installation was simple, as they just clipped into the arms on the car.Overall: 5/5 stars, works great so far - no noise or streaking. But I will need to do longer-term testing to see if they last more than 1-2 years. Most of the aerodynamic wiper blades work fine for the first year and then show the typical chatter/streak issues common even with the less expensive blades.
Works great and I discovered these to be a better replacement than the upscale BOSCH wipers. You can save about $10 on each by sticking to these.
Amazon had these on a special deal, 2 for $20. I bought a pair and after receiving them I ordered two more pairs. These wipe the windshield like a high dollar squeegee. I just hope they can withstand the Florida sun for a whole season.UPDATE: November 13, 2013: After an entire summer in the Florida sun I replaced these wipers with the same type I'd stocked up when they were on sale. I think they performed well. The Florida sun in Summer and early Fall is brutal. Ultraviolet degradation is not uncommon. The high quality of these wipers was apparent in the fact that they lasted all season plus a few more months. New pair now installed, hopefully they'll make it through until Springtime 2014.
These are great wipers and go on in a snap! Very good workmanship and great in the rain! Love the spineless design!
When I bought my new wipers, I wanted the best of the best, so I chose these, which had the best reviews on Amazon. They're good - but they're not the incredible wiper I was looking for. I had Neoforms on my old car, and those were fantastic - they never left a single streak. The Bosch, on my new car, don't fare quite as well, but they do a pretty good job.I'm probably going to try out another set of Neoforms on this car later, so that I can make a true apples-to-apples comparison, and I'll update my review once I do. For now, these are good enough, but if you're looking for the 'ultimate' wiper, you'll probably want to keep looking.
meh not as good as the previous bosch kind - these had excessive squeak and don't seem to clear as well as the previous kind of bosch high end blades, not worth the money
I already had a similar style windshield wiper by another brand. One of the blades became slightly warped over time and would leave a small section untouched when it was on. We therefore decided to replace it with one of the Bosch blades before the rain season begins.This Bosch one seems to be slightly lighter than the other blade. I put it on the drivers side of my Mazda Miata. It was very easy to attach, no fancy hinged locking parts to navigate and press down. They just slide on and snap right into place.I park on the street and often get dust and pollen on the windshield in the morning and, as autumn creeps closer, the window fogs up on the outside in the morning. This makes visibility poor in the bright early morning sunlight if the windshield isn't swept thoroughly.  This blade did a great job with the morning windshield and I feel much safer taking off for work in the morning. It clears all the dust and pollen no problem too, leaving the windscreen free of water and easy to see through.  That's important as I live in a part of town filled with trees and, in my experience, rain was actually easier for windshield wipers to deal with than dirt and pollen.So I like these blades.  They do their job well and I'm optimistic they will work well throughout the winter.  And the price seems quite reasonable.  I recommend them.
I have been using a jointless wiper blade ever since it became a popular replacement for the factory jointed type that is usually pre-installed when you buy a new vehicle. The Bosch 19-CA Clear Advantage Beam Wiper Blade fits the bills when you need to replace or just want to upgrade to a better performing wiper blade. There was no rain yet in my little corner of the country when I got this wiper so to be able to give a comprehensive review, I have to "simulate" rain-like conditions by turning a hose with a shower nozzle on the windshield in the driveway of my garage. Snow on the other hand is a different story, no way for me to simulate that kind of weather event.My thoughts:Performance: the jointless type Bosch 19-CA Clear Advantage Beam Wiper Blade is contoured better to "hug" your windshield with minimal resistance and pressure points. This translates to better wiping ability thereby enabling you to see better in inclement weather. Since it is jointless, this type of wiper gives you uniform wiping pressure, eliminating the pressure points or the "streaks" that you see across your windshield as it moves across the windshield. The curvature of this wiper is aerodynamic, it will prevent a lift-off of the blade even in high winds.Installation: it took less than 10 minutes to install the Bosch 19-CA Clear Advantage Beam Wiper Blade without using any of the adapters for my wiper arm.Very satisfied with how the Bosch 19-CA Clear Advantage Beam Wiper Blade has performed. It is cheaper compared to other jointless name-brand wiper but gives the same amount of effect. Highly recommended!
We liked these enough we already bought more for the other car. They are easy to install, are rubber, which I find last longer. The whole blade is springy and coated, all other wipers i have owned are exposed metal. So far so good, we had some rain and they do a great job, quiet and streak free. will update when it snows.update 4/13 These did well all winter and still look ok and intact, working good after 6 months.
I like the design of this wiper blade. I have had them installed on my 2005 Hyundai Elantra for a few months now and I really like how the bracketless design does not leave streaks. The only downside is that these get dirtier faster and need to be cleaned a little more frequently than traditional wiper blades but nonetheless they work really well.
Okay, first I must confess...I'm not a car crazy type of person. I view driving as more or less a necessary evil and tend to think of transportation as a function rather than extension of my personality...much to the distress of my dear spouse.So, it should come as no surprise that car maintenance is also not at the top of my list. I try to take care of oil changes etc but other than that...give little though to something until it becomes a problem. Therefore, the fact that I "just" changed the wiper blades on my vehicle just over 2 years ago (well, according to my Amazon purchase records..make that 2 years and 8 months) it was rather surprising to realize how much better these Bosch beam wiper blades were than my last pair!In fact, when I purchased the last pair of wiper blades it was due to good ratings. Piaa Corporation Usa 94048 Wiper Blade Refill 19 (475mm). These fit my vehicle and were well rated but I specifically remember thinking they weren't that fantastic as there has always been this one little area that tends to streak during heavy rainfall. Living in Florida where nearly every afternoon in summer brings torrential rain, this is no small consideration.When these Bosch blades came up for review, I quickly looked up my vehicle type using Amazons part finder (a GREAT Idea by the way...thanks Amazon!)and figured out which version was needed for my vehicle. When they arrived, my dearest installed them and viola...clear vision! Installation took only a few minutes and was hassle-free.Very pleased. I'm not sure how often wiper blades should be changed but apparently, more often than I've been doing it. These are a substantial improvement over the Piaa brand blades right out of the box...no major streaks.
Been buying different brands over the past 20 years and these are now my favorites (sorry Triple Edge).  Hug the glass nicely, substantial mounting bracket fits easily, no skips or chatter so far.  Will be buying these annually I think.  Very nice!
I am really impressed with the Bosch Clear Advantage wipers. The Bosch wipers are of such solid construction and quality I have now put them on both of my vehicles though the other was not yet due for new wiper blades - good thing they're a good value, too! True they are slightly more costly upfront than several competing brands; when it comes to safety aspects and peace of mind we err on the side of caution. Afterall, our loved ones lives are at stake.The 21" wiper fit our '06 Dodge Durango (front - passenger side) perfectly and is a great replacement. It was very easy to install the entire arm assembly instead of the old days of fighting to change just the rubber "blade". I easily had both front wiper blades replaced within 5 minutes. Awesome! Bosch is a name that can be trusted, I highly recommend these wipers.  If you have an '06 Durango, the driver's side front wiper is theBosch 26-CA Clear Advantage Beam Wiper Blade - 26".Note: these wipers are sold individually and some vehicles need 2 different sizes for the front. Additionally SUVs often require a different size for the rear wiper. Be sure to use Amazon's nifty "Find Part" tool to verify these wipers will fit your vehicle. If you include your vehicle in the "My Garage" feature of Amazon it makes finding replacement parts a breeze to confidently order replacement parts and know they will fit your vehicle(s).
I live in Central Florida and it rains hard almost everyday during our so-called Hurricane Seasons with severe pop up Thunderstorms and many times hail. I have been buying these Bosch Wipers from both my BMW and my Isuzu SUV. The rubber does seperate after about a year but the replacement is easy and fairly cheap. A word of warning: These wipers are NOT sold in pairs. You must state 2 in quantity. I made that mistake thinking that; &#34;Who the hell would sell you a single wiper blade? Amazon, that's who.. so I had to order another one. Both left and right are the same I presume. So other than the buying problem, rest assured these Wipers are &#34;tops&#34; in the Market.
The Bosch wiper blades work very well and make good contact with the glass along the whole length of the blade.  Unfortunately, they just don't look very nice.  The blade part itself is kind of big and fat and the connector is even larger.  Although I'd have to admit that overall the Bosch wipers probably have less of a profile than the older metal wipers my car had, these just *look* big and fat and even clumsy in comparison.  At least they work well.
I'm  a trained storm spotter and I drive a honda ridgeline truck and I've used Bosch blades for a long time now and even in the harshest rain. I've ALWAYS been impressed with the performance of Bosch blades. The blades do a great job at keeping the window clean, they move large amounts of water and seem to hold up really well. One thing I love about these blades is that the design is such that the more wind that hits these the harder they push down on your windshield which means they are more effective.  I'll continue to use Bosch blades on my truck and my wifes car.
I replaced the blades on my 2007 Toyota Corolla with this blade and theBosch 24-CA Clear Advantage Beam Wiper Blade - 24".  The blades they replaced were a pair of OEM blades that I picked up from the dealership during routine maintenance late last year. The OEM blades were worn, performing poorly and leaving streaks behind, so it was definitely time for replacement. The Bosch CA blades easily snapped right onto the vehicle in seconds. The CA blades are thicker and much more solid looking than the OEM blades they replaced. Although they work fantastic in the rain, the real test is how well they will perform in extreme conditions (snow, ice, high winds, etc) and how long they last. I replaced three wiper blades (front and rear) on my 2006 Sienna with Bosch Evolution blades this past March. All three are still working perfectly and I have been happy with them so far. I installed the Evolution blades just before spring, so although they did great with the spring and summer rain storms, I haven't yet had a chance to test them with snow and ice yet. So this winter will be a test for both Bosch models. As long as they both handle the snow and ice reasonably well, the best performer will be the replacement blade of choice for both of my vehicles next year.
It seems to be somewhat difficult to find a high quality wiper in this size. 13&#34;. While I can't claim to be an expert on all things windshield wiper, I can say from personal experience that this &#34;style&#34; of blade seems to last longer, and remove water much better than those crappy multiple arm versions. On the other types of blades, such as the cheapos sold by Rain-X, you have those little arms that lead from the metal part, down to the rubber. They hold it and apply pressure to it. I don't know why but that style of blade just seems to pale in comparison to this one. There are several companies that make this type, Bosch being one of them. Michelin being another. All I know is, I've switched to this type of blade and I'm not looking back.
This wiper was easy to install.  The directions really aren't of any help, but more or less I was able to just slide off the old one and slide on the new one (you may have to fiddle a bit with the catches - which may not be obvious).Without any inclement weather I can't give a first hand account of it's performance.  The design is interesting as the frame is significantly wider than a stock wiper.  I'm curious to see how this will work in snow.  It may just collect more snow and work worse, or perhaps the design will better remove accumulated snow.
Until I bought the Rain-X wipers I didn't believe there was actually such a thing as streak free wiper blades.  And I like the metal free exterior frame design as well because it meant I no longer had to literally be chopping away at ice encased wiper blades in the wintertime.  But I did wonder why no one else made a similarly well functioning product.When I got my hands on a pair of Bosch Clear Advantage blades to try in place of my Rain-X Latitude wipers I was a bit unimpressed because except for the brand logo they appear to me to be the same in every respect.  They're even priced about the same.So I love them, they're the 'other best' wiper blades I've ever used, but they could have taken at least one little step to differentiate the product.  May I suggest for example different colors.  My car is silver; I might like a pair of silver wiper blades, or some other color.  I pick out different colors for parts on my high end bicycles which cost $5,000 a piece, so why wouldn't I be interested in doing something like that with my car.Just a suggestion.
Thought this might have been because the wiper arm itself was bent. Put the old blade back on and it hits the spot fine. Using on a 2009 Camry. Tried bending the blade a bit to no avail, still misses a huge spot right in the middle on the drivers side part of the window. Will have to order a new one but will make sure it's a different brand.
I have had good luck with Bosch wipers in the past but these do a terrible job and leave tons of streaks in the top half of the wiper arc.  I will be trying a different brand next time out.EDIT: I replaced these with some Rain-X Weatherbeater wipers and the improvement is drastic.  Stay away from the Bosch wipers and spend your money on something that actually works as intended.
I bought this 18CA wiper for my Frontier and it was real easy to install them.  It took more time to take out my old Goodyear wipers that lasted me about 6months.  These Bosch wipers run very smooth and no streaks.  We will see how long they last me.
The installation is easy and the fit clips in securely. The blade's arch form maintains contact with the glass surface for consistently clear wipes. I am quite pleased with the results.The Clear Advantage blades have a nice clean look. The cost is reasonable for excellent performance.
I purchase nothing but Bosch blades.  Yes, they are more expensive. However, they last longer and clean better than others I have tried.
There's not much more I can ask from a wiper blade than this: good price, easy installation, and no streaking when I use my wipers!  My old wiper blades clearly needed to be replaced as they just streaked water across my windshield, while these new Bosch ones just wipe my windshield clean, like they're supposed to.  Not much more needs to be said - they work great and if they ever need to be replaced, I probably would get these again.  Very happy with them.
This has to be one of the easiest do-it-yourself car maintenance projects.  It took about 30 seconds to snap off the old wiper & clip on the new one.  The hardest part was figuring out how to take off the old wipers.The installation instructions are pictorial; no words.  There are no buttons to snap; just slide the metal "J" shape clip over the wiper mechanism.The wipers work well; no streaks & no blowing around at highway speed.
The Bosch 16" Clear Advantage wiper blade fit the passenger side of my 2007 Hyundai Accent perfectly. It was simple and quick to install. The blades mount well to the car and feel sturdy.I first tried these in a light mist with my windshield caked with salt from being parked for several hours at the beach. I was amazed at how quickly they cleared the residue and left no streaks. It literally took three strokes across the windshield to get them clear. My old wipers would have taken a couple minutes.I then went out driving in a typical Florida downpour. I tried the blades with all the available settings in my car; intermittent, low and high speed. They were almost completely silent other than a slight, nearly inaudible, 'squig' noise when the blades were fully 'up' and the rain was light. In moderate, heavy and torrential rain they were whisper quiet.The blades cleared my windshield very well. Even in the worst downpour I could easily see the road. At one point the rain was heavy enough that several other drivers pulled to the side of the road to wait for the rain to let up. I was able to continue driving with confidence.Highly recommended!I will update this review as needed if any durability issues arise over time.
This is a good wiper but there are others just as good that look better and last as long. Look at the Trico Teflon.
Compelled to write a Bosch Clr Adv review after a lengthy road trip, close to 1K miles in 3 days.It seems about two-thirds of the trip was in a Florida summer downpour, with highly limited visibility.The Bosch wipers worked great. I'd buy them again in a flash, especially at the under-$12 price.Installation was a snap, so easy that I thought I must have done it wrong.DYI, these are replacements for Rain-X wipers (never again for Rain-X, purchased four wipers for two vehicles; all had cracking runner within months).
I opened my package and thought, "Do I have enough time to install this before leaving?" I figured it was worth a try. In less than 5 seconds, it was on. It was so easy to slip off my old one and slip the hook on.The wiper seems to work well. It clears the entire area whether there is a drizzle or downpour. I haven't seen any streaking or gap areas yet.So a good price for a great wiper.
Before you buy wipers make sure that you've got ones that are compatible with your year, make, and model. Amazon has a really nice "Find Parts that Fit Your Vehicle" feature that should make it easy for you to see whether a specific size and type of wiper (the connector primarily) can go on your car.This specific wiper is a driver's side replacement on my 2003 Toyota. I have been usingBosch ICON Wiper Bladeswhich are easily the best wipers I've ever used. They hug tightly, move smoothly, and are virtually streakless on the window. So far, this Bosch 21-CA Clear Advantage model is performing the same as the more expensive ICON version. We've had about a dozen "rain incidents" since these have been installed (and they installed easily) and I have no complaints.An easy 5 stars for a product that does what it says and does it well. A HUGE step up (for me) from the $2 discount blades I usually get.
What I liked was that it was easy to get into the package. The product itself was very straightforward, easy to install. Took me two minutes.The set I'm replacing had a metal body frame. This one is plastic, so I'm worried that it might not hold up. It does seem well-made, and my vehicle is garage-kept, so hopefully this won't be an issue. Time will tell.My visibility has definitely improved from my old set.
Wiper blade for car.  Great  product.  Definitely as described.  Highly recommend.  Needed new blades and these are the ones that I picked.
I like the Bosch Clear Advantage arrangement as a quick and easy replacement for original wipers. This configuration features a curved back with the rubber directly attached. It works great in rain. This new line is less expensive and geared for areas with rain. It is also an advantage to someone who is not planning to keep their vehicle a long time.For snow and ice where more rigidity and strength is required, I would definitely spend the extra money for the heavy duty, long lasting Bosch ICON line.
I drive a small size SUV and got this to use on my windshield. This was my very first attempt to install a replacement blade and I found it rather easy to do.One of the challenges I face at work is dirt from salt and sand from the ocean. The wipers have done a great job so far in cleaning the mess without leaving a streak.We've had quite a bit of rain this month and the wiper covers the entire area without any skips, streaks or squeaking.
This is a great wiper. I had a rain-x wiper and it was okay. This one is quiet (doesn't squeak) and clears water very well. Highly recommended. I won't buy any other wipers for our cars. Bosch is the way to go! Worth the little extra in cost
Bosch 13-CA Clear Advantage Beam Wiper Blade - 13" is a nice rear wipe and easy to install. For $10.00 plus tax, the blade is priced fairly. Time will tell how long it lasts. These kind of blades usually last 6 to 12 months depending on usage. Overall, an effective blade.
Just installed this on my wife's 2004 Toyota 4runner and yes it fits, even though Amazon says it doesn't. With that said, they seem like good wipers I noticed a little bit of squealing from the driver side one, but that could b/c the windshield needs cleaning or there wasn't enough rain on it at the time.Update- So after having them installed for over a month now, these wipers have a faint squeal to them constantly which can be annoying.  I have the ones that are step up from these on my truck and they don't squeal. So in my opinion it's worth spending a little more and getting the nicer ones.Update-2- on a Toyota 4runner these things suck. Will definitely not buy these again.
Great fit
These work amazing but we had some snow pileup this winter and one of the wipers somehow got damaged.  Now anytime I raise it up the thing just comes right off.  I looked at this and it appears that one of the plastic pieces that attaches to the cars wiper arm just broke off.  Not sure if this is a fault of the wiper or the snow, but it's never happened to me before.  Other than that, these things are perfect.
What a great wiper blade!  Absolutely flawless at leaving a perfectly dry windshield, even through light mist or drizzle.I love the curved design.  This worked fantastic for the rear wiper arm of my Jeep, on which the spring has weakened and the wiper arm no longer presses normal wipers against the windshield hard enough to work well.  This curved design hugs the back window perfectly and makes it streak-free every time.I have only had these a month or so, so I cannot attest to longevity, but my first impression is very, very good!
This thing was the correct size and very easy to install. It cleans the water off of my windshield. Whee!
I used to only buy RainX brands and found these through Amazon with great prior reviews - so I took a chance.  These are actually quite nice.  They are quiet and seem to hold tighter to my windshield the previous blades.
I finally got to use my new wiper blades today - this and a 21"er - with the first rains from Hurricane Sandy coming through.  They work perfect!  Test 1 complete.  The harder test is how long they last, but I have no doubts they will perform better than whatever I bought last time at the local auto parts store.  I could tell out of the packaging that they were exceptional: the entire frame is a spring that had the blade more curved than any I've seen out of the box.  It then straightened out perfectly on my windshield.Check your car's manual carefully.  I am by no means an idiot when it comes to such things, but I had a pair of 20"ers on before (can't remember if that was actually my doing) that did not cover as much surface area as this correctly sized pair.This simple replacement (very easy to install) feels like a big upgrade to my car for the day.
Windshield wipers have become easier to install.  This installed easily on the driver's side of Chevy Avalanche 2004 and is working like a dream.  The parts finder says this does not fit this truck but it works great.  No streaks or squeaks...  Have yet to experience a heavy rain with this but so far works great!
Best wiper I've ever had. Streak free and noiseless. Much better than the junk at Walmart. You can always count on Bosch.
These windshield wipers are great in rain and snow.  They don't skip when the wind is blowing and it is raining like most traditional windshield wipers do. Also I like how quiet they are, they only things you hear is the rain hitting the window.  I would definitely recommend these to anyone.
I got this for the driver side of our 4-door Honda Accord (2001). This is a cheaper version of their Icon wiper line. One of the differences is that it doesn't have that little plastic hood that cover the metal hook. Like the Icon, it is also very light and made mostly with composite materials instead of metal parts.The soft frame curves and conforms to the shape of the surface glass as opposed to conventional wipers that has two parts - the metal frame and the moving part that is the rubber. No streak and it looks great on my car.Replacing wipers is pretty easy. You may need to look at the instruction as different manufacturers have different ways of releasing them from the hook, but basically takes only thirty seconds to remove the old and snap a new one.CAUTION:Be careful when you leave the wiper standing on your windshield after you remove the old one. The wiper is spring loaded, without the wiper it is pure metal and it may snap back to your windshield glass. You may want to place a cardboard box or a towel on top of your glass to protect it while replacing your wipers.
Both of my vehicles have Bosch wiper blades on them and I like how they perform.  They are easy to put on and work well at clearing the water off.  No streaking or rubbing.
I tried other brands, all started working well at the beginning but perform poor few weeks/months later. This one works the best and better than all the rest.
I'm known for my short, no-nonsense but informative reviews, so here goes:- much more in-line with the now-standard soft, less rigid squeegee form factor for on blades of most modern cars today.- head and shoulders above the kind you are likely to get as a POS (point of sale) item at your local gas station or car wash.- quite reasonably priced considering the quality.
I got these to replace the OEM blades on our 2010 Mercedes GLK, which started to squeak only a couple of months after being replaced by dealer. The GLK needs one 19&#34; and this 22&#34; one. So far these replacements work very well - they were easy to install, the contact with the glass is good (there are no &#34;dead sports&#34; at the ends of these wipers) and so far they haven't produced any unpleasant sounds after few months of work.
These are much better windshield wipers than my michelins.  They last longer and work better.  There's not much else to say!
I bought a set in May 2014 and installed them.  No issues installing them.  I inspected them on July 12, 2014 and found the wiper edges on both Driver and Passanger side were separating from main rubber part of the blade.  I live in Arizona and the weather is has been hot but not so hot to make both of these blades disintegrate after less than 2 months on the car.  When the rain hit my worst fears were confirmed as the wipers did not wipe away the rain from the windshield like they should have.Don't buy this inferior product!!
While i shopping for car filters for my 2008 honda accord I saw this blade and its companion for the passenger side - I like them alot and it saves me as i drive 200-250 miles a week - will buy again
I've been a convert to the streamlined no steel frame wiper blades since I received them on a 2007 Altima. They look good, they cover the windshield thoroughly and they don't chatter or make clicking noises when the blades reverse direction. In the past, I've been spending a lot of money on Valeo brand as I thought they were the best. But they're pricey.Installation is a cinch, squeeze the center expander, push down into arm, and snap-- it's done. Very quick & simple.This brand is the perfect summer blade-- it's a bit less bulky and more streamlined.  Being that I replace the blades before and after each winter, this is a smaller more appealing looking blade for the summer, and saves me some money during my summer swap out.I may still stay with the Valeo for the winter swap, but I'm going to leave this on through the winter to see how well they hold up.  The rubber edge is clear so I'm thinking they may contribute less to blackening of the windshield.I'm using this as the passenger blade on a 2012 Altima SR.
I was super excited to get this and try it out, unfortunately despite detailed research regarding the proper size to get for my vehicle, the attachment system is TOTALLY different than what is on my car. Very disappointing, as this was a very high-quality wiper.
I bought this as a direct replacement for the OEM blade on a 2000 Toyota Land Cruiser. Very simple install; just click off the old wiper, click the new one in its place. Does a fantastic job on the windshield, leaves very few drops behind.
I replaced the factory installed wiper blades that came with my Hyundai with two Bosch wiper blades.  This wiper blade fit the front passenger side. I also installed a 24 inch Bosch blade on the driver side of my car.  I have used these blades for a couple of weeks and they work fine and were easy to install.My Hyundai is three years old so it was time to change the wiper blades.  I have done this before on a Honda so I had some experience.  It took me less than five minutes to remove both existing wiper blades and install the Bosch blades.I have driven at night in the rain after I installed these and they worked fine. Next to driving in the snow, I find the performance of a wiper blade while driving in the rain at the night to be most critical. Vision is limited while driving at night in the rain and it is important to me that my wiper blades get as much water off my windshield as possible.  I am very comfortable driving at night with these. They did a good job.Thankfully it has yet to snow but I will try to remember to write how they worked in the snow and ice. As of now these are great wiper blades at a great price.
I installed these on my '09 F150. It hugs the window well and provides quiet, streak-free operation. Well worth the price.
I purchased these for my 2007 Tahoe. Unlucky for me they did not fit. Lucky for me I was able to return them to the seller for a full refund.
I've never used Bosch wiper blades before trying the Clear Advantage models. I've always stuck with the standard Trico wiper blades. The problem with regular wiper blades is the pressure points cause uneven wear over time which leads to streaking and reduced visibility. The 19-CA Bosch Clear Advantage Beam wiper blades promise to reduce the likelihood of that problem, by using a flat spring-steel bar to apply a more even pressure across the surface of the blade. On my particular windshield, the blades seem to live up to this claim during heavy rain at both high and low vehicle speeds. In fact, I'm almost certain they actually wipe better at faster speeds due to the air-foil design helping to push the blade against the windshield surface. My car uses two different size blades, 19" and 24", and I can tell that the 19" is better at giving a cleaner wipe than the longer 24" model, which seems to have a little trouble towards the ends of the blades when clearing the windshield of mud and grime.
I am using these wiper blades (20" and 24") on my Kia Borrego SUV.  It has a large windshield, and I have had problems with wiper blades in the past.  However, these Bosch Clear Advantage wiper blades are working great.  They handle heavy rain and a light drizzle equally well.  There is no smearing or skipping, and they are quiet.My better half installed these for me, and he commented that it was an easy job.  The real test of these wiper blades will come this winter, when they need to handle snow and sleet.  However, I am impressed with their performance so far.
I ordered this wiper for this for my rear window wiper.  The installation could not have been easier.  It didn't even require reading the instructions (although I would recommend it).We park under a tree for shade and birds like to leave little presents for us.  The leaves also generate a lot of dust or dirt when it rains.  This wiper had no problems whatsoever and it moved smoothly and quietly.  I will replace all future wipers with these.  Good one Bosch!
Doesn't leave any streaks.  Completely wipes the windshield..  Bosch has always made quality products.  Try to  oil and air filters.
These wiper blades are high quality and are more flexible than others and seem to hug the windshield for a clear wipe every time. They seem to be more durable than other types and look like they will last longer. Be sure to use the selection guide at the top of the product page with your car make and model so you get exactly the right size for your vehicle. They work great!
Compared to $25.00 to $40.00 retail at a autoparts place this is a good deal and they work just as good as the more expensive ones.
The bosch brand has seem to hold up better then any other brand I have used and lasted much longer.
Not much that can be said about a wiper blade.  I live in the North East and drive my car about 150-200 miles daily...and with the crazy weather we have, good blades are imperative.  I have always purchased Bosch blades and spark plugs for my cars and they have yet to let me down.The price is at a bit of a premium..but its old adage...you get what you pay for.  I usually get a good 4-6 months, if not longer, out of these blades and highly recommend them.100% perfect.5/5
I decided to give these Bosch blades a try after seeing the high ratings. The blades installed in seconds on my Chevy Avalanche. They are a little pricier than some blades, but I did not feel they did a better job than the less expensive wiper blades. Also, the last 2 inches of the windshield does not get cleaned since the blade does not conform to the shape of the windshield. This was a problem that I see many others had...it's not a deal-breaker, but I expected more.
When buying wiper blades, you tend to have one thing in mind for there purpose: to work and wipe rain and other moisture away. There are so many brands and styles out there. How can you decide what is great and whats not? thats not an easy question to answer. Honestly i think it depends on each individual person experience. But for may in giving these blades a chance, they worked well. Added extra visability and cleared the windsheild as they should.  Your experience may vary, but as long as the serve their purpose and work, than any set of blades are great.
These wiper blades are very quick and easy to install. They work really well in rainy conditions. They aren't the best that I've had when it comes to icy/snowy conditions. They smear a bit more than I think they should.Overall they're good blades for the majority of the year but if you are in an area that get quite a bit of snow and ice during the winter months I'd maybe look for a different set of wiper blades.
These look very different from the standard windshield wipers that came installed on my car.  Instead of a multi hinged contraption with a blade they are one long slightly curved piece.Removing the original wipers  is the hardest part of installation.  Mine had a little clip that had to be depressed before you could pull them off.  If you cannot figure out how to get them off, google your car model and year and " windshield wiper replacement".  After you get the originals off, you are left with just a "hook" on the mount for your car.  These new Bosch blades fit over the hook and snap on.  The instructions are just pictures, which drives me nuts, but in this case it was reasonably clear how to get them on.On my big flat minivan windshield  these work very well.  Had the opportunity to test them in a driving rainstorm.  Noticeably better than the original wipers, without streaks or squeaking noises.
The Bosch 20-CA Clear Advantage Beam wiper blade is one of the best wiper blades I've put on my car. I live in south Texas where we have alot of morning fog, and when it does rain it is inches in an hour. This blade gives me a clean clear windshield through it all. No streaks or missed spots. I actually did'nt even get that annoying thumping noise when I left the wipers on after the rain stopped. I would recommend this wiper to everyone.
Installed this on Friday and Monday on the way to work had rain. Works well, as well as the old style I had before. It does squeak a bit more than my old one but on the other-hand, it does wipe better.
This is a quality blade. It is quiet and does not leave streaks like my old ones! First for 2001 Honda Civic LX driver's side.
After having wipers on my car for 2 years, they were beginning to show signs of streaking - so I was glad to get a chance to test these wipers. These installed easily and the nice thing is that because of the curve of the blade, they rest much lower than the original wipers.However after a few days the lower part of the blade began vibrating as it went back and forth. I tried cleaning the blade and the windscreen with a diluted solution of vinegar and water, but the shaking/vibrating is still there. These are just a little bit better than the 2 year old wipers I removed. I really expected better.
NOTE: The owner's manual for my Toyota called for a 14" blade, but the 13" blade fit OK.These are some "beefy" wiper blades compared to what came on my 2010 Toyota. The hardest part of the installation was getting the tab pulled up on the wiper arm (I have the hook-type installation) since my blades had never been changed from when the car was built. Easy to install these once I got the old ones off. I was surprised at the curvature of these Bosch blades but the spring holds the wiper blades perfectly against the windshield. I guess the real test will be 2-3 months from now when we get the first big snow.
I bought a trailer to haul my Jeep. Because it's so low, the license plate gets bent. Flipping onto the top works fine, but it's no longer lit. This little light was the perfect answer to the problem.
I had a custom metal bumper made for my Chevy truck, and they put an incandescent license plate light on there (two actually) that just looked like crap with my LED bulbs in the taillight and backup lights.  They were shaped just like these, so I was glad to find some that would be a direct replacement. I couldn't use LED bulbs in the old light, because they were longer and not enough room to fit in the housing.So I got these installed finally the other day, and they are plenty bright and a nice white color to them. They match the color temp of the LED backup bulbs I have even.  Simple little thing totally changed the look of the back of my truck at night.(Now if I could only find some of the oval backup lights like they put in my customer bumper that are as bright and white as these. Even though they used LEDs, the color is awful and temp of the light is not nice)The housing on these comes apart from lens part for install. The LEDs are angled to face the open part of the lens.  If you are hesitant to get these worrying about brightness or color temp, don't worry! These are great!
Easy to replace the OEM light. At first, I was concerned that this LED was not as bright as the OEM. The light worked after I installed it, which at times is amazing, but did not seem as bright. At night, when the light is needed, there is no doubt. This is brighter. Overall I am very satisfied with this light and will replace the other couple of lights with this LED.
I purchased this light for a vented cat box project. This light and a 120mm computer fan are powered off a 12v wall wart. The result is the cats can see to do their business and the fumes are vented to the great outdoors.
Well made lights with decent output.  I wouldn't necessarily describe the light as &#34;warm white&#34;.  I thought it was slightly cooler looking.  There is no real blue tint that stood out.  Maybe calling it &#34;daylight white&#34;?  These are well sealed lights and should be very weather resistant.  You can actually separate the bulb/lens from the mounting shell.  The wires come out from the back center of the light.
This is a lot smaller then it looks in the picture, which is great. It is about the size of a USB thumb drive. It has 6 L.E.D, which produces a white light, not blue as pictured in the photo gallery. I used this on my motorcycle, facing forward as a tag light. Not only does it light up the tag but it lights up the entire rear of the bike switch is an added safety feature for night riding. So far I have not experienced any issues with rain, water, mud or dirt getting into it. The construction/ build quality is top notch. If I have any issues I will update this review.
using it as illumination for a trailer license plate.  super bright.  way brighter than the similar style incandescents that have always been the norm.  im thinking about getting one or two for lighting around our 12v off grid cabin.  they would be plenty bright to light up a set of 5 or so stairs.
I enjoy detailing my car.  Although I used many tire shine products, I wanted to find one that had the right balance between shind and protection.  Many of the tire shine products weaken the tire walls or interact with the rubber.  Others have &#34;fling&#34; and unable to hold the shine.  I found I needed to touch it up at least 1x per week.  This product is easy to apply and has held the &#34;black&#34; well for the past several weeks.  It isn't as shiny as other silicone based products but it also is safer for your tire.  I wanted a product that will keep my tire a dark black for at least a month.  This does it.
Most of the tire treatments I have used in the past, went on fast, and came off  the tire even  faster.  I would find most of it all over the hub caps, and side of the car.  Used the applicator as directed, went on easy, and stays put.  So far, it has been three weeks since I did the application, and it still looks as good as when I first put it on!!!!
The delivery was very fast  from Amazon.The product is very to use. It is gel like. I used a microfiber applicator to dab it on the tires. I prefer a hi gloss shine. I put 2 applications on each tire. I did not notice a impressive result. I let it cure for about a half hour. It looked better. I parked the car in the garage overnight. I was extremely impressed the next day when I checked on the tires appearance.  It was a deep classy look. The car had a different look. The car by the way is a 2012 MAalibu LTZ.  If you detail your own car you'll enjoy using this product.  I recommend it highly.
The tire dressing market is saturated with so many products that it is ridiculous.  I have tried them all and never really got excited about one product or another.  This is very different though.  Do not layer it on top of any other tire protectant.  Make sure your wheels are squeaky clean before you apply this to get maximum adhesion.  Use a round  foam applicator to apply product.  Make sure to wipe off any that looks even slightly excessive.  Once this is done, you will see the best shine you have ever seen on your tires. I live in Sunny Dry California as well, so it probably stays nicer looking than in other states.  I am using up the rest of my tire dressings and then will only use this product exclusively in a few months.  I'm sure there are better products out there.  However, I can't even remember how many different ones I have tried.  This beats the rest by far.  A little goes a long way and the price is pretty good.
Seems like a good product. Used to use meguairs extreme tire shine gel and they seems to be the same.
Sanctiond tire glaze gel works really well on tires.  It is a thick gel with a consistency (kind of) like maple syrup.  This allows for the gel to be applied to tires and keeps the gel from running off tires onto rims or quarter panels while driving (referred to as slinging).  A small amount of product goes a long way; more product = higher shine.  You can achieve a subdued, fairly long lasting shine with one coat.  For a high gloss tire, run a second coat and your tires will really gleam.  I have applied about three times to each of the four tires on both an SUV and a coupe (24 tires total) and still have about 3/4 of the bottle left.  For what it is worth, my method to apply is by pouring a small amount into a bowl (I use the top of an old spray paint can) and then use a paint brush to "paint" the gel onto the tires.  This allows me to conserve the product while ensuring that I get even, complete coverage on the tires.  Hopefully that hint can work for you too.  I recommend this tire glaze as it is of high quality and the pricing is reasonable.  The only product I have ever used that came close was the old formulation of Stoner's MoreShineLessTime, but that product has been reformulated and is no longer as effective.  Good luck.  I comparison shop a lot before buying anything - hopefully you can benefit from my time investment and review.
This stuff works great , gives a good shine but not overly glossy. It holds to the tire and does not seem to fly off onto the car when you drive. This was my first use and the only thing I am not sure about is , it soaks into the sponge applicator I used differently than the last stuff I used and I will have to see how that goes on future uses. But so far I think I would re- order when I am out.UPDATE...using this for over two months now...it is really a good product, will re-order from Amazon when I run out but it may be a while, this stuff really lasts.I am increasing my four star rating to five on that basis.
This stuff is really thick you can realistically get 20-30 details done with this stuff (depending on tire profile). The sling off is very minimal but it's still there. Still tons better that black magic. Smells good too.
I don't know where Sanctiond gets off saying this product has "deep shine" or "blinding brilliance". The shine it leaves on your tires is mediocre at best. Original Armor All has a MUCH wetter looking shine than this product. When I run out I most definitely will NOT be buying it again. I haven't driven my truck yet so I'll have to wait and see as far as the "no sling off" and "longest lasting" claims go.
This is an update to my original review...I've been using Sanctiond Tire Glaze for 6 months now and it can't be topped. It is incredibly easy to apply, smells great, and really lasts a long time, even after several car washes. Because you don't need to use a lot to get a great looking finish it's very economical. The glaze goes on smoothly and stays put, no splashing or slinging onto the car after it's applied.  This product is well worth every penny and I highly recommend it!
I am now a big fan of Sanctiond products. I used this for the first time yesterday.  I followed the directions and the wheels and tires came clean. Very clean. I also used Sanctiond Tire Shine.  I let it set into the tires overnight and in the morning I had some very impressive looking tires. Deep shine. Try it. You won't be sorry!
So far so good with Sanctiond W30016 Wheel and Tire Cleaner - 16 oz.  Seems to work well at loosing brake dust and road debris from my wheels.  Happy i made the purchase, would recommend you give it a chance as well
Best cleaner I have used so far.  I recently changed brake pads and during break in alot of brake dust built up on wheels.  I let it go too far and it became baked on.  I ordered this product and was very happy with the results.  I had to use it twice to get the dust off but the wheels look great now.  I use this product every other wash and this seems to do the trick.  I ordered another bottle to have on hand.
Ive used 3m, meguire's, and every other major brand of tire and wheel cleaner and this is the best ive found. The tire shine is a little disappointing but the tire and wheel cleaner delivers. It does go fast though.
Sprayed it on my truck's tires and let each tire soak for about a minute before using a scrub brush on them. The first go round removed almost all of the accumulated brake dust and tire shine gunk on the tires. A second treatment cleaned up the tires quite nicely and left a like new surface to apply new tire shine. The tire shine I used was Sanctiond's "Tire Glaze Gel". What a HUGE disappointment that was.
I ordered this unit to be able to power my various chargers, but most importantly my Li-ion 18v cordless drill/ impact driver charger which claims to consume 250 watts, which I found surprisingly high as I was looking at a 120 watt Samlex.I do have an older Coleman 800 watt MSW inverter but it has destroyed some other battery chargers in the past and I no longer take the chance of it releasing the magic blue smoke.I only got the unit yesterday, and I used it, through the ciggy plug adapter to recharge some 14500 Li-ion batteries and to power my 90 watt power brick for my laptop.  My battery voltage was 12.1 at the time, and the alarm started sounding on the inverter off and on when powering the laptop and charging the dead Li-ion battery within.Anyway I plan on hardwiring this into my RV with a 50 amp fuse.What I like is that it is so quiet.  My coleman inverter uses 0.9 amps just turned on powering nothing, and the small fan, which I have replaced once already, is annoyingly loud and runs full speed, always.  This unit consumed only 0.3 amps turned on powering nothing, and I have not heard the fan turn on, even when my laptop was drawing 90 watts through it.I have not checked the actual voltage under load, nor maxed it out yet, nor have any idea how long it will continue to operate, but this unit does give me the capability to live completely off the grid, and to use my solar excess where as before I had to use the grid to power the chargers which might protest the modified square wave inverterIt comes in a hard to open blister pack, and this was kind of loose in the Amazon box and flopping around inside of it.  It could have been packed better but seems to not have suffered any damage in shipping
This true sine-wave inverter offers a fantastic value and so far, in the last month I've owned it, it has worked flawlessly in my rv. I am using it exclusively for right now to operate my Omega juicer and it runs the unit flawlessly keeping me in healthy juices every day! It arrived days earlier than the stated expected delivery date, so you need not be concerned, at least from my experience, that the seller would offer anything but the best service to you.
When I saw how big this thing was I was skeptical.  I mean, my 1,500 watt inverter that I bought back in 2004 is only a bit larger!  However, this unit performs well, doesn't get hotter than I would expect, and can be left on for a long time without overheating.  I haven't had it long enough to say if it will last, but for a first few weeks impression I am very pleased!
Unfortunately, I believe they sent me a return/refurb product.  You know that "need a chainsaw to cut open melted plastic security packaging" we all love to hate that electronics seemed to be packed in?  Well, this came in that, however, there was a cut about 3/4 the way up the package...just enough to pull the unit out and put the unit back in its packaging.  The box it was delivered in showed no signs of damage and that security plastic of death just can't rip on its own.Secondly, I was amazed to find 2 missing components (wondering if it is standard for all of this type, or if it was just missing in mine):  screws to permanently mount and most importantly an insulated copper wire to ground the unit.  If you're going to give us the option to screw it down in a vehicle, then supply the screws.  If you are going to sell a product that should be grounded, then help your customer by supplying that ground wire for crying out loud.It's also very important to note this can only supply 140W of power when using the in car power plug (ie, for your radar detector etc).  The only way you get to 400W is direct connect to the cars battery.I do like the fact that it has dual AC sockets, however, it really needs more than a single USB plug.  My intended use would be for trips and with only one USB charger, that doesn't work when you have more than one kiddo.I would recommend either going to a different model with more ports if you have kids.
This Wagan power inverter is a great solution when those smaller power inverters for your car just can't supply enough power.  A good example would be if you need to run a printer or a desktop PC in your car.  Electronics really need clean power, and the Wagan provides a nice source of power that more accurately emulates the sinusoid of wall power.  That being said, do you need a 400W supply?  The inverter comes with a cigarette lighter adapter and clips to put directly on a battery, but if you are going through the car's cigarette lighter, note that you can only go to 150W.  This is not a limitation of Wagan, but a limitation of your car.  If you intend to use your cigarette lighter only, then buy a smaller inverter.The one downside is that I noticed the internal fan is a little noisy, especially under heavy load.  From what I can tell however, this is a fine choice for occasional needs of higher power such as a printer, desktop PC, or small television so long as you connect it directly to the car power system and don't use the lighter.
I like the feature set on Wagan's EL2601 Inverter. Multiple 3-prong outlets are to be expected at this price point, but the USB charging outlet is a nice plus. It can handle a substantial load (400W, though if you're running it from a cigarette lighter outlet it will cap it at 150 to protect your vehicle) and is virtually silent at the smaller loads (&lt;50 watts), and not loud even at full force.The box itself is pretty hardy, and comes with built-in mounting holes, though I wish the ones in the rear were a little closer to the edge so the terminals weren't in the way as much; my power screwdriver couldn't get to the screws and I had to go with a regular screwdriver.The inverter comes with two sets of cables - a DC plug for the cigarette lighter, and alligator clamps for direct connection to the battery. The clamps were my biggest issue with the inverter - namely, the fact that the rubber grips tend to slip off, which is more than a little worrisome. I also would have like to see a more permanent cable option, such as a terminal connector, for long-term connections. I'm using my inverter in conjunction with a leftover power mower battery and a solar panel to provide light-load electric power in a shed, and had to get creative hooking things up as both the panel and the inverter only came with DC plugs and clamps.I haven't really tested the "pure sine" claim extensively, given my application, but the fluorescent lights I'm using seem to flicker less with this inverter than others I've used, so there's that.The inverter will give a high-pitched beep when it loses power or is turned off, so keep that in mind if you're attaching it on the downstream side of a switch.All in all though, a few gripes aside, this is a quality product that performs as advertised.
Up Front:  I found the Wagan 2601 Elite 400 Watt PRO Pure Sine Wave Power Inverter well built and easy to install in my RV.Before installing the unit I put it on the bench with a steady input voltage of 12.9 volts DC.  With no load on the unit I measured 124 volts AC.  I attached a 300 watt TV and again measured the output voltage and it remained steady at 119 Volts.  Adding a 100 watt light bulb to the load dropped the voltage to 115 volts.  The unit was warm approaching very warm to the touch after a 400 watt constant load of 2 hours.The unit is not a silent inverter.  It's not loud, but you know it's running.  The noise is mostly from the fan I suspect.  It comes with a cigarette lighter plug, as well as battery clamps. I ran #12 wiring to the battery bank in the RV.  In an auto using the cigarette lighter plug I suspect the output voltage will be dependent on the size wiring from the cigarette lighter outlet to the vehicles battery.  For a full 400 watt output it might need a heavier wire connection then most 12 Volt DC outlets are supplied with.One item of note:  When plugged into the autos cigarette lighter outlet and using a full 400 watt device that has a higher surge to start up, it may overload the vehicles cigarette outlet fuse and blow the fuse. I was not able to measure the amps the unit draws however so this is speculation.Installation is straight forward and the mounting brackets on the unit are strong and helpful.
I've been testing the Wagan EL2601 Elite for a few weeks with my DIY solar power panel system and 12 volts sealed lead acid batteries. So far it performs great.During the last year, we endured more than a week of power outage after bad storms crossed our town, and we depended of a couple of inverters I own to supply the essential electricity for lights and recharging devices.The only downside was that both were modified wave power inverters and produced interference with some of our electronics. One of the storms happened in the middle of the summer, and when I tried to use an electric fan with the inverters the noise that the modified wave DC produced was unbearable. I ended using a couple of D cell batteries powered fans instead.A true sine wave inverter, like the Wagan EL2601 Elite provides a pure signal which will not interfere with the sensitive electronic gadgets at all. The Wagan EL2601 Elite has a very low harmonic distortion, THD &lt; 3% and the first thing I did was to try the electric fan with it, this time there is no perceivable noise at all.I also tested it with fluorescent lamps, USB lights, a laptop and charging my cell phone. I'm so pleased that I'll be getting a second one, and I recommend it for sure.
This is a useful device for anyone who takes road trips. I can charge my laptop as well as my iPhone or iPad at the same time via the built in USB charge port, while on a car trip via the accessory power jack in my car. If I'm traveling with the kids, they can charge their Nintendo DS systems, etc. also.If you need to power something that takes more power such as a power drill or something like that, you need to plug this directly to your car battery to avoid blowing the accessory jack fuse in your car. It's nice that this comes with both types of plugs.  I would also recommend you do this with the car running so you don't burn out your car battery, however this device does include an alarm that beeps when your car battery is getting low. It is supposed to warn you before the point where the car battery drains to a point of not being able to start the car, although I have not tried this yet.This unit is lighter and feels a bit less quality than I expected at this price and it remains to be seen how reliable it is over the long term. That said, it appears to be functioning well so far.
I purchased these to replace some lights I had mounted on my snow blower. I had put some lights on the snow blower of my tractor last winter to help me see when snow blowing the driveway in  the dark. The lights on the tractor just didn't help much especially since the chute on the snow blower blocked most of the light. The lights I had put on originally were cheap and didn't put out much light. They failed after one season. I found these online through Amazon and thought I would give them a try. Boy has LED technology come a long way. They are very bright and I have no problems seeing what I am doing while clearing the driveway. They even cut through the blowing snow. Seam to be very durable. Time will only tell but for now I am extremely happy with my purchase.
I have 4 of these on my Polaris RZR and 2 of them on my enclosed cargo trailer and they are bright and are well worth the money.  I will be ordering 4 more to go on my Jeep.  Can't beat the price!
I bought 2 of these for my off road pickup. They are as bright or brighter than my HID headlights. I will most likely buy 2 more.
I bought these to compliment the Rigid Industries light bar I already have. I have the 10&#34; specter beam and wanted something with a bit more flood. I was planning on getting another Rigid light bar, but then I came across these. I couldn't pass them up for the price. I figured if they didn't satisfy me I could put them on the back of the truck as reverse/work lights.  I installed 4 of them in the lower grill of my Titan and wow, did they do the trick. They look great and they really light everything up. I know a lot of people use these types of lights as a cheaper alternative to Rigid's, and I'd say they are worthy.The build quality is good, not as precise and lacking some of the better materials Rigid uses, but for the price you can't complain, and I think these should stand up to most abuse.The color temperature of this light is about 5000k, while the Rigid appears to be closer to 6000k. But from inside the truck they both appear to be pure white.They don't have the distance I get with the Rigid light, but that's expected given the beam pattern is narrower on the Rigid and the optics are better. They are much wider than the Rigid though.These lights will please anyone planning to use them as their only off-road lights. You just can't beat the price.
This is the second type of LED light I have tested.  I ordered 2 of these lights.  I measured the Voltage  and current at each light.  Each light came from different suppliers.LED Light 112.612V @1.711A = 21.579 WattsLED Light 212.581V @1.723A = 21.677 WattsThese lights are bright but the DC-DC converter is probably running too low.These might be B stock.While I wrote this review I left LED light 2 on to see what would happen when they got warm.LED Light 212.638V @1.638A = 20.701 WattsI was going to give these 2 stars but I received a refurbished unit.  I sent it back because the lense was cracked and had a poor repair job.  The lenses have to be super cheap I dont know why they bother repairing them.EDIT:  Careful with the lense cover.  I cleaned mine and now it has a white haze to it.
Nothing to really complain about here. these light are durable and can easily take a banging. I go into much more detail in my video review.  [...]
Works like a charm on my Ariens snowblower alternator, but had to add a fuse, bridge rectifier and 4700uf capacitor to change the ac to filtered dc (gives 11vdc at idle). Gives much more light than a filament lamp, and no more broken filaments, due to vibration! Looks to be ruggedly built and should last for years. Hardware is stainless, except bracket, which is plated steel which may rust.
These lights are amazing. I have placed three orders because i keep finding places to mount these lights. I have come to find out that there is a huge difference in quality between suppliers. The first set of lights that I received were decent with no issues. The second I ordered (different supplier) had a few blown LEDs in two of the three lights right out of the box. The powder coating was &#34;eh so so&#34;. Amazon refunded it no questions asked. The third set (again different supplier) is truly better than the others that I have ordered. The wiring and powder coating are obviously the best so far. I'm going to stick with this last seller as there is a night and day difference in quality. And for 20 something dollars a light how can you go wrong. The spot lights (30 degree spread) are where it's at. The floods (60 degree spread) don't throw the light very far but are super bright and are good for reverse lights. Yes there is a difference. Pay attention when ordering. YOU WILL LOVE THEM!!! I have them wired to everything!!!!
I was very impressed by the  amount of light these throw.  They are very solid and well made. I cannot attest to how long they will last as I have only had them a couple weeks.
Used these on a quad for extra light and they are amazing, I can't believe how bright these are. I used the spot beam and they throw off an incredible amount of light... I would buy these over the name brand Rigid for the price any day....
I've tried a spotlight (too focused) and a floodlight (too diffuse) on my service trailer for working on stranded cars roadside - I thought that, for the price, I might try one of these and see if it would be more appropriate than either of the incandescent fixtures I've tried already. While I would dispute the 30-degree claim, the most significant portion of the illumination is probably within a 30-degree arc - what is surprising is just how useful the additional spread is; it's sufficiently contained to be out of the line-of-sight of approaching vehicles, but spread enough that you can look for accidentally-dropped tools beside and under the vehicle, or read the owner's manual while standing beside a car door. It's almost certainly more useful than the description would lead you to believe, and light intensity, even at two car-lengths, is sufficient to permit you to read just about anything that might be useful, even 1/8-3/16" print. Current drain is a fraction of what an incandescent fixture requires for the same illumination; I don't even bother to leave the engine running anymore. It's a remarkably handy light for working in the dark at distances of 20-80 feet, but remember that the fins on the back serve a purpose; they keep the Cree elements cool, and therefore tend to get uncomfortably warm after a few minutes of use. All in all, though, I consider them an excellent choice, and intend to equip every vehicle I use for service and/or inspection with them.
This is quality. Ignore all the bad about this light if there is any. I don't see why there would be.This is super bright, Easy to install, and will last forever if you take care of it!A+++ Will buy more again!
lights up my whole neighbor hood  there good to see light up sure they love the glare through the windows when i am coming by jajaja just kidding  but they are very nice and easy to instal awesome lights for the buck thanks
it works great on my vt750dc shadow spirit!! its even brighter then i hoped for!! was able to fit it all in the head lamp(not stock vtx head light) it was very easy to set up! plugged right in!!!
Received the HID kit fairly quickly so I have no complaints towards the seller.  The color output seems to be misleading though. I ordered the H7 6000k kit but the output seems to be more around 8000k, really blue. Now my vehicle seems like one of those teenie bopper cars who cruise the strip on Friday nights. According to the chart in the photo section 6000k was more towards pure white which is what I wanted for my CX-7. No gripes towards the quality of the product but for those deciding on which bulb to purchase i'd go with 5000k.
I order this products base on high volume of review stating they are working reliable. With attractive selling price and comment. I place an order to try on this HID kit. Installation only spend around 30 min. Its work straight ahead and bright. Now, over 2 months, it switch on instantly and lights up quickly. Its much reliable than most similar products in the market. I have no compliant of this HID. Less Expensive HID kit and works fine. Good Make. Try it, You will like it.
Anyone looking to go to HID Xenon headlights these are the lights for you! It only took about 30 minutes to get them installed, and they are great!
good product, removed a lot of grime.
I ordered this because if you want a clay bar at a local retail store, you typically have to buy a $20 clay bar kit, which I did not need. I just wanted a clay bar, not a kit. Amazon to the rescue! They actually sell just a clay bar, for about $12 less than a whole kit. I used this today on my wife's 2000 Jetta and it worked well to restore the paint to a glass smooth finish. Followed up with some Meguiar's Ultimate compound and Nu-Finish and the car looks almost new. Well worth the money. Plus I still have some left over since I cut it in half when I took it out of the package.
I have been using a clay bar to remove the surface grime from the paint on my car. Most of the bars I have used have been small, about 50 grams, and they get dirty very quickly and eventually I have to toss them. I saw this 100 gram bar advertised and ordered it as a replacement. I wish the bar was a little more pliable thus making it easier to kneed the bar when it gets dirty. I used a detailer to wet the surface and this bar to remove the grime. The results have been excellent. I find this bar last for about one car. If the paint was cleaner you might get a couple of jobs out of it.I recommend it though as it was better than the one that came with the kit.I also found that working on a small area, say 2 foot  by 2 foot, is much better that trying to do a large area at one time.
I purchased two bars for my detail project. One was yellow and this one. The other one was only about 4 dollars more but I found this one to be a lot easier to work (a bit softer) and it held up better than the other one.I already bought another one for my other car and will continue to use this brand
Works great and is very cheap. I was amazed how much it picked up after a thorough car wash. I used soapy water and it worked just fine. I recommend to anyone. It was very easy and made a big difference.
Anyone detailer must have a clay bar. It is second to none in removing fall out. Try waxing your car....then wax your car after using this. The paint feels new.
I purchased this product mainly because I could not get the Meguiar's clay, which I have used in the past many times, without having to purchase an entire kit. The reviews were good enough and I figured clay is clay....well not so much.As other reviewers mentioned this clay is pretty stiff and not nearly as easy to work as the Meguiar's product. Kneading and folding the clay is a big part of the process when clay baring a vehicle, so it's a pretty significant downside in my opinion. Also, the color contrast when picking up contaminates is not as obvious, due to the blue color, as it is with the Meguiar's clay.So if it's not obvious enough yet....I prefer and recommend the Meguiar's clay versus this Simonize brand. That said the product does work and is inexpensive. So if you are okay with having to work the clay a lot more, this will work fine for you. If it's your first time, I'd definitely go with a more "workable" solution.
ok heres how i used the clay bar on my 1999  tacoma start with a cool day so theres less evaporation wash the vehicle then with clean soap and water wash again while the soap is on the car slide the clay bar over a small section at a time then rinse do the entire car DONT DROP THE CLAY BAR ON THE GROUND! as it will pick up debris from the ground then scratch the paint finish off with wax smooooth
Lasts a really, really long time.  It stays hard and doesn't disappear like a bar of soap like the ones that come in those Meguiars kits, etc.  This is the clay bar to get.
What more to say.  I have used a different clay bars but this one is priced better than most it seems and does the job well.
Works as good as any other clay bar I've used, and the bag it comes in has a zip-loc style resealing strip on it, which is nice. I think I prefer lighter colored clays, though, since removed contaminants show up better.
When used according to directions this works great!  My disappointment and resulting 4 stars is due to the expense.  Its a pretty small piece of clay for the money.  Removing all grit from clay must be difficult as all clay bars are expensive.  That said, if you have a lot of bugs stuck to your car or MC this will really do the job of removing them.  In addition it is Ideal for cleaning lexan/plexiglass motorcycle windshields
This is a great product. I will be buying more soon so I have it on me. The clay is easily pliable and will clean up your paint easily. I like the blue color which makes it easy to see how much contamination is coming out of your paint. Use Meguiar's Quik Detail spray as a lube. http://www.amazon.com/Meguiars-Quik-Detailer-Mist-Wipe/dp/B0009IQX90/ref=pd_ys_sf_s_15684181_a1_8_p?ie=UTF8&refRID=1JF16Z2Y5AEKZ4PAPWNY
I was astonished at how smooth the paint on my brand new car felt after a clay bar treatment. Easy to use. Easy to clean and store in a separate baggie. Be sure to store with lube, or it sticks relentlessly to the bag it is stored in.
This is probably the best auto detailing clay on the market. I've tried others, and well this one just seems to be a much better value than the others i have tried not to mention its a few dollars cheaper than the others that are out there and you get more of it. The clay is easy to work with and very pliable - not to hard and not to soft. Will for sure purchase more of it when i need it. Thanks!
I clayed my car before polishing and waxing and this stuff really gets the grit off the paint that you really cant see but can feel if you run your hands inside a plastic bag across the paint.  I used a detailing spray after washing and drying the car and the paint was smooth as silk afterwards.  I used half a bar and saved the other half.
I am using this specific brand and type of Castrol automatic transmission fluid for my 2005 Nissan Frontier 4.0l V-6 (120,000 miles and NO problems at all, like new). Come to find out from my Nissan Tech friend, this is the same oil the dealership buys in 55 gallon drums, and uses in there auto trans drain and refills.  And I also found out that Castrol makes the trans fluid (this one) that goes into the Nissan labeled bottles sold at the dealership for $12 a quart (Matic-J). Per there website, this fluid is a direct replacement for Nissan Matic-J, Matic-D, and Matic-K trans fluids. FYI, you need 4.5 quarts for a drain and refill on a 2005 Nissan Frontier.If your Nissan uses Matic-S, I do not believe this fluid will work in your vehicle. You might contact Castrol directly before purchasing to verify the compatibility. I listed the differences between the two below:Nissan Matic-J (semi-synthetic automatic transmission fluid) this one is being phased out to only Matic-SNissan Matic-S (fully-synthetic automatic transmission fluid)From what I was told by my Nissan Tech friend, if your owners manual states that your vehicle requires Matic-J fluid, then you can mix and use both Matic-J and Matic-S fluids in your transmission. BUT, if your owners manual states that your vehicle requires Matic-S fluid, then Matic-S fluid is the ONLY type of fluid that can be used in your transmission.Hope this help! Go Amazon!
I purchased this tranny oil for my old man's 87 Honda Odyssey. The Honda tranny oil was to expensive at the dealer so I did some research and found out that Castrol had a tranny oil that is OE to the Honda tranny oil tried and it worked perfectly.The car took (4.5) quarts for a drain and refill. I will purchase this product again when I do a tranny oil change at 30,000 thousand miles.
my honda crv  shifts more better,smoother , i highly recommend this product to all who needs diy atf  change on their japanese car.
I bought the Castrol Transmax Import in the case and didn't realize that within the case was a bag and a pull out drain spout.  I purchased this because the lowest cost per quart price.  I like the product, I use it in my Honda and Toyota vehicles.  It is more work for me to use in this form but it was my mistake, I will pay a bit more next time, either a gallon container or regular quart size.  For now, I am filling a quart bottle from this and transferring the quart bottle one at a time to my transmissions.UDPATE 10/26/13: Just a little update about my experience with the 6 gallon box size.  As I stated above, I have been transferring to a Castrol Transmax quart and filling my transmission in my cars.  One thing I noticed is because the Castrol quart contaniners are black AND the Transmax is red, it is very hard to see the level as I fill in the quart container.  Compared to standard engine oil quarts which one can easily see on the side of the container where the level of oil is in the container, I need a strong light from above so I can peak into the Castrol quart containers.  Not a big deal except for an occassional overfilling, but just a FYI for others who are planning on ordering the box size.My future plan is to maybe continue buying this box if it still nets me the lowest $/quart and then use a funnel and clean gallon container, like milk or vinegar container to transfer.  Mark lines for different quart levels on the container.  This will give me the best of both worlds, best quart value AND easy and clean transfers.I also looked into what I paid back on 5/13 and for everyone's reference, it was $101 ($4.20 per quart).Please click YES if my review have been helpful to you, it will encourage me to continue writing and updating my reviews, and leave a comment if you have any questions, I will be more than happy to answer if I can be of help.
The packaging is in good size. I emailed Castrol and confirmed that it also fits 2010 Mazda 5.Change over was easy at home, so far shifts are good, i suppose month will tell how it holds up.Original fluid smelled horrible and was black at just 30k km.
I use these retainers to replace the older ones on my Honda, Had no problems insert/ putting them in on the vehicle.
However, like many others who have purchased this type of fastener I got the wrong size. I need 10 mm. I played around with them and the look like they'd be O.K. for interior panels but I doubt if they'd be sturdy enough for mud flaps.
I used these to secure a new sideskirt on a Dodge Magnum. It took a little force to get them in the hole but they ended up working fine. Good price, too.
These are good to have when you loose the ones off your ATV while either riding in the woods or just out and about. Don't cost that much and are worth a lot when you need em'. I recommend anyone that have these installed on their ATV's to get some to have for the future.
These are great to have around your garage, along with the sister product in 7mm.  They appear to be a well made product, and the design is such that they give a good grip when activated.  I normally use only OEM body clips, but I have a Suzuki automobile, which is pretty much no longer supported in the US market.  So these have worked as a substitute for some of my Suzuki OEM fasteners.
Now I can replace the bad with the good & bought the pliers to remove instead of using side cutters to pry the heads up. There are lots of these on a Teryx.
great  for what  these  were  made  for the price  is also very  good would  tell anybody  if you buy  these you  wont  be  sorry
Great non OEM replacement for Honda push rivets with the exception that its hard to reuse these once installed.  They do not remove as easily as OEM, but for the price, I can throw a few away.
The oem tabs have a metal insert between the two pieces that make up the tab, these do not. They are all plastic. I replaced a couple on my front bumper and work just like the oem ones.
I had to remove the plastic cover underneath the engine in order to access the transmission fluid drain plug. Of course, I broke two of these clips in the process. While not identical, these fit perfectly and hold the plastic trim on firmly.
Honda price 1.50 - 3.50 ea. These are 13 cents each. made of tough nylon. Good to have handy around the shop. Enough said.
Too pressed for time, I ordered these to replace the 'exploding' rivets in a Honda S2000 fender wells. Even if you use the correct tool/method, the factory rivets tend to break off into a head with a tiny stub when removed. I was thrilled to find these in semi-bulk at a good price.They looked like the same thing, and the factory service manual had only line drawings with no part numbers or dimensions.  Only problem is, these are 10mm in diameter, not 8mm like I needed.So while they may fit some areas of the S2000 as listed on site, they do not fit everywhere the factory used nylon rivets.Five thumbs up for very good pricing (and as always, lightning fast delivery) as these fasteners can exceed $3.00 each at some other sites.I can't take away any stars because I was in a hurry, plus these rivets seem to be made of a more pliable plastic than the factory part, so if I do get to use them, they may be less prone to crack in use.Hopefully the correct rivets are on the way from another Amazon vendor-again at a the most reasonable price/quantity I could find anywhere.Moral: break out the caliper or ruler first to get the correct size before you buy- even if your application is listed.
These look, feel and work just like the originals clips on my 2005 Honda Odyssey.  The clips holding the splash guard on the underside fall out and cause it to scrap on the road, forcing me to go to the dealer to replace them, so keeping these in the glove compartment saves me a lot of time!
Love the product, just wished I had gotten it earlier, I would recommend it to anyone wanting to replace the fastener on your vehicle
I have some 10mm holes around an access hole in my Sidekick body's interior and I'm making custom panels to cover them. I made the mistake of thinking that the holes were 8mm and first purchased 8mm clips. They were much less substantial than these which are very sturdy and should hold well.
These are affordable compared to OEM clips but these do not R&R that well.  There are enough in a pack to treat as one time use.
These fasteners worked great on my 2011 Honda Accord.  I had to take apart the bumper to add some screening and ended up replacing all of the OEM fasteners with these.  When comparing these to the OEM fasteners, these felt to be of much better quality and held in tighter as well.
Honda uses these plastic lock rivets that are easy to get out but require a new one when putting the pieces back together.Make sure they are for your Honda or they won't fit right.
These were easy to break and they did not fit my 2008 Honda Civic.  The description of the product needs to be changed so people don't end up buying this and it doesn't fit their vehicle.
I recieved my unit, and it's everything as listed. Came with the hitch strap, so I can use my truck to haul it to the waste site. Better price than the competions price. It came just in time too. Thanks Amazon!
Don't buy this tank; there are several out there much better designed. Hard to handle; have to lift front to drain; make a mess. Hard to pull when full. Buy tank with 4 wheels that you don't have to lift front to pull - ones that work like kids wagon and that can be drained laying flat.
Got it form a dealer going to wal-- mart to get a second fitting to complete the tank use it next weekend  have been looking at this for a month
seals well, no leaks.  I had it filled to near brim, the tank and its caps did not leak, pop off or create any spill disaster.  It is a heavy monster when full and can be horsed around, but I am a 31 year old guy and it was very heavy.  My dump station is only 75 feet away, uphill, and it was a struggle to move it on dirt.  Filling and Dumping and rinsing were easy and strait forward.The supplied bit of hose and connector is a bad joke, I used my own 10ft section of rhinoflex with 2 female bayonet couplings for a solid lockup, I did want to recreate the Dump station scene from the movie RV....Next dump I will for sure employ the tow bar and a ATV for the moving, but I wanted to see if I could move it my self the first time.
I would 5 star this item if the hose supplied had 2 'end fittings' instead of one. Where are you supposed to get the second fitting from? In the end I had to buy a second hose from a local store and use the fitting from that to connect to the supplied hose. Dumb. Otherwise the unit works great. We have a camper on a fixed site and we get pumped out once a week - in season. At the end of October they stop pumping for the winter so we bought this item to transport waste to the dumping area. I just hook it up to the hitch on our golf cart and it tags along nicely. A really great product if only they would give you the extra fitting that you will need.
This is functional as I wanted it to be.  It is a bit heavy when near full but that's gravity and no blame to this. I haven't tried towing it behind the car as the dump station is within easy walking distance.  The hook up works well. I did fabricate a shorter main line to run from RV to tank. The little hose to connect to rinse the tank will likely work well if I ever find a hose at a dump station that hasn't had the threaded end run over repeatedly to the ruination of connectability.
Not only was it a disappointment it was a serious one. No fault of the light as it worked just fine. The difference between this bulb and the ones that came with the RV was literally night and day. With these LED bulbs installed the best I can compare it to is a moonlit night. No way I could read, cook, or do anything with these installed after the sun has set. As said, this isn't the bulbs fault because it worked as advertised.
I ordered these bulbs for my buddy and me.  We put them in our Silverado trucks as interior lighting.  It makes the inside light up.
First thing I did was test each one, and all 10 worked.PRO:1.  Arrived on time.2.  They all work, sometimes the Chinese quality control department misses a few.3.  Bright, but not too bright and they are super white.4.  I have spares.CON:1.  When viewed from the side, you see a small 'dot' not an overall white glowing light, so be prepared for that.2.  More bulbs than I needed, but it was cheaper to buy this pack than to buy one at a time.Peace!
I used a pack of these already and had no problems so I ordered another pack.  There were a few bad ones in this batch that were blowing fuses in the LP lights and map lights.  I had to cycle through them before I found  good ones that didn't blow fuses instantly.
Ive bought SMDs countless times on amazon and I want the whitest SMD possible. I was replacing the gauge cluster bulbs in a '98 Camry and needed a few more. I wanted small ones with less SMDs since I wasnt sure about the depth for the bulb so I figured this kit would be fine.To be blunt, they work, well most of them. Some of them had the top SMD blown out but it wasnt too noticeable in the cluster. They all turned on and the cluster looks a lot better but not much brighter than the factor bulbs.The Jtechs are also in the 8000k range which I dont like. 8000K is white with a lot of blue, probably the closest thing to a solid blue LED. I definitely do not recommend these for license plate or parking lights since theyll attract too much attention and arent very bright. If youre replacing gauge cluster bulbs then theyll be fine.
These lights are brighter than the bulbs I replaced in my 44 year car about 20 years ago, but it is only the color that makes the instrument cluster easier to see, not the brightness. The price however was outstanding, the quality is yet to be seen. I went to great pains not to touch the chips with my bare hands so as not to damage the sets longevity issues. We will see how they last for me.
Using them to replace the lights in the car. Had no problem in installing them in the light holders. They plug right in.Would recommend them
I installed one of these LEDs to replace a blown LED side light in Porsche Cayenne.  The bulb illuminates and is bright white, however it triggers a warning message to check side light.  While these bulbs are very low cost, and I'd recommend them for a standard application, these don't appear to be suitable for an error-free application requiring a CANBUS built-in load resistor.
works great in the license plate socket. get a pack and give some to friends. You'll make their day and the police will see their plates easily...lol
This is a no-brainer update for your car.  I've purchased a couple different types, all of similar quality and brightness, but all of slightly different colors.  These cast superior light to that of incandescent, and use drastically less power consumption.
I replaced my bed lights with a couple of these and they are ok. I was hoping for something a little brighter but the don't list the lumens.
Good little package, delivered fast, and I can use it for many years. I'm pretty happy about this purchase.  The quality was &#34;well made and consistent&#34;.
They are bright little bulbs, not too much blue tint.  Perfect for license plate lights.
White light comes out of these bad boys, not blue. Very bright and attractive. All of mine work (fingers crossed that they don't die). Only issue is alot of my old bulbs broke off in the socket, so these don't work until i clear the debris  *sigh*
So far so Good! All the bulbs worked out of the package. Brighter and whiter than the incan. OEM bulbs. replaced the following on the Prius:front side marker (2)lic. plate (2)front map and dome lights (3)door lights (2)Only time will tell if it will last or if will be safe for my plastics. I believe this smaller LED size will be fine. There are larger and more powerful versions out there. But, you run the risk of the bulb generating too much heat and melting the plastic.
Lights are bright well constructed. Perfect for interior replacement bulbs. Also worked well for running lights and license plate bulbs.
Great stuff and really bright, but also the price is so amazing on these. Definitely, would buy these again for my cars.
These are bright white light with a hint of blue.  Fits perfectly in most of my 2012 highlander interior lights.  Had to adjust them a bit to make them work for the front as these are a bit longer and gets in the way of the on/off switch.
Not &#34;super bright&#34; but looks great. Has a bit of a blueish tint. Was a great upgrade on my Touareg.
I tried this after a friend recommended it to me, saying t lasted a few weeks and had good shine.More so then any other tire shine I have used, you MUST make sure your tires are 100% clean. If not, after applying this product, you will get brownish stains on your tires.  So use a good tire cleaner or degreaser to prepare it for the shine coating.It has more of a matte finish then a glossy shine, even after duplicate coats.  It seems to contain a large percentage of alcohol, as it flashes dry rather shortly after spraying it.  It also did not last long for me, only a few days at best.Not worth the effort, there is much better on the market.  I like Megs Endurance for an OTC product, and Ultima Trim and Tire Guard for a mail order product.
I followed the instructions, cleaned the tire with a bristle brush and soap...dried it with towels. Then I applied the product. This morning, my tires have a thick, plastic feeling brown residue all over...looks like rust mixed with mud. When I used this stuff before, it never left a brown residue, just a horrible attempt at a shine.Overall this product sucks, and now I need to figure out how to remove the brown reside it left. Sticking with McGuires from now on...
Did not like this product as the spray is kind of funky and if you get it on your rims it's hard to come off...the regular tire shine is best and its less of a hassle....
I bought this product ( two cans )  a few weeks ago from another site and it is not what it claims to be.It left a white gummy residue on my tires and no shine. I eventually had to return one can.
Good to keep tires clean, dosnt have a deep shine, but keeps tires clean longer. Like it.Easy to use,good buy.
Not sure if I got a dud or what. This is my second set of Sena head sets.The first set was about 3 or 4 years old and were fantastic but were starting to not work correctly so I up graded.This set does not stay paired and the music sound quality is not is good as the original. However they do play louder and the mic does work better.
These work really well with my iPhone and bike to bike.  The sound quality is excellent both on the rider's side and the other end on phone calls.  People say it actually sounds better than my car speakerphone with less noise.
I love these things. I listen to music every time and ride and these are great. I ordered two because I go on group rides and my girlfriend has hers and we have no trouble communicating to one another. These do last a very long time. I had mine on my about 10-12 hours for continuous talk time and the standby time is around 10 days (fully charged) before I have to charge it again. This is everything and more that I wanted in a head set. Another thing I love is that it remembers all my devices like my cell phone, GPS, and other Sena units without a problem. I also like how I can go back and forth between device I have hooked up. And if you're doubtful because of the speakers, don't be. I have a sports bike and I don't wear ear plugs and the music on this is great. No it's not like BOSE but its pretty great for being almost a flat speaker. There is base and treble so its not big deal to me. I would recommend if you listen to music, go on group rides or just wanting to get rid of the wires. That is pretty nice!
I've been riding motorcycles for 40 years these are the BEST pair up with IPhone Siri and you control your phone!!!!!!! Plenty loud enough even on my dyna with open pro pipe shop around here on amazon for the dealBuy this!!!!
All the roads is where me and my crew use these headset to ride safe and it gives us the ability to change lanes in a group without the fear of being hit! Kelly K National Vice President of Shiftn Steel Sport Riderz
My daughter wanted a walkie-talkie setup for Xmas for use when riding her BMW 2-wheeler.  This one had good reviews and so far has not disappointed.
Ordered this headset and then took a motorcycle trip from Minnesota to Washington state, and it worked absolutely fantastic. I ended up also purchasing a headset from Sena that you can use with earbuds, instead of speakers, but this one works just great. They both perform as advertised. I had my GPS and phone going and never had a problem. The battery life is fantastic. I put in a couple of days where I drove over 10 hours, and this thing did not miss a beat. Do not hesitate buying this unit. It is easy to use, and works beautifully.
First time buying wireless over the 10 cable sets we have had over the past years . These are GREAT,  fast and easy sets to install compaired to wired units.  Came with several little extras that you had to make yourself in the past to get that perfect fit. What a great job this company did putting the extra thought into the design . AND they work as stated or better , an honest listing of there ability.
I ordered this and paid an extra 4 bucks for overnite, otherwise it would have been 2day free using prime. Instructions for this was step by step for a easy install. Im using this with a 3/4 helmet on my HD Road King, and at 75 plus mph I can hear without any problems or discomfort. Now i can listen to my music! Talk is ok also, the other person can hear me clearly at 75mph. But the wind noise at that speed does damper the conversation. Full face helmets would not have this problem.I do have some issues per voice command, with the gear and my phone. I have a droid atrix and voice commands is not working with this unit. But im working with Sena support group and there are easy to talk to and fast.I like this product and would recommend this.Update: 03/08/2013 Had this running for 2 days now and its still going, havent recharged it yet. Sena support got back with me, and i have to press the phone button once its on and paired to go into voice command. It works but the Atrix is not the best for it since, the atrix has a bad voice command app. Will try it with an gallaxy 3.I have also used the line in for my ipod classic and it works like a charm.Updated, 06-05-13, starting to have problems using the mini jack on the headset. I plug in my iPod due to lack of booth tooth on my iPod classic, and when I turn my head the headset cuts out. I believe the plug on the headset is loose inside. No matter what jack I use it cuts out. Bluetooth works fine. And I can say that on a single charge the headset is good well over 7hours of continued use.
They are great and have good sound. Fit well in helmets.  Worth the money.
These LED lights are bright and look great! Just be careful to unplug your car battery before installing, because they may burn out your other bulbs (they did for me).
As advertised.  Bright enough.  Brighter than the 20 SMD T10 and did what I wanted.  I used one of these and one of the less bright ones in each RV light.
Kind of skeptical at first but I ended up purchasing them. I put them in my Silverado reverse lights and they get the job done and look good doing it! Even with tint on my tail lights it still shines very bright through it!
These are pretty good, I use them for my travel trailer's wall mounted swivel bed lamps.Can't say I like the wedge mount design in general, but these are bright enough to read by.
One was busted but amazon took care of that. Otherwise, it's bright, strong- will update if it burns out but so far so good.
These are good little lights at a fair price, don't think you can beat the price and they shine brite.
They are plenty bright and use essentially no energy so if you use the lights with the engine off it does not kill the battery.  Add to this I will never have to replace the bulb ever and I am a convert.
Purchased 2 just to check them out.  I did have the RV on 110V power so I was giving the bulbs the full 13.56 volts and they stayed nice and bright.  They did get a little warm but no more than the incandesent bulbs.  I would recommend these for your RV using a fraction of the electrical power and actually seem to give more light output!!
bought these to place in my travel trailer.  It dropped the load on my battery so that I could probably run all lights and TV for a couple days compared to about 8 hours plus the benefit of no heat made from the bulbs.
Lamps did not fit as promised, should of returned them but too late now! Did not fit the socket for the lamp on any light of the car.
I put these in my high mount brake light on my truck and was actually surprised how bright they are in day and night.
I installed several in my RV and they are much cooler than the tungsten type.  I am not sure they are as bright and the temperature color gets some getting used to.  However, they draw much less current.
Pros:- Fit Decently in 922 Socket- Nice Cool LightCons:- NoneI used three of these to replace the cargo lights and third brake light in my F-350. They work great, and stay much cooler than the standard bulbs. These have about a 6000K color. They are slightly brighter than the stock bulbs.
These lights just plugged right in and lit up the RV just fine but I would like a little brighter light than what these guys are doing. But for now they will work out just fine.
They seem to be OK just waiting to use them. I probably should test them and make sure they both work.
I bought these lights to replace the 20W lights in my camper. I have already bought a couple of LED lights elsewhere and I am very happy with them but the cost was too high to replace them all in my camper. I bought these 2 lights to try before buying a 20 set. The first thing to watch out for is the wires on both of these lights were crossed when I tried to install them the first time. This resulted in a quick pop and a little char on the light fixture. I removed the lights and bent what was left of the wires into place. The second try worked well. The resulting light is very blue and nowhere near as bright as my other LED lights. They are not completely unpleasant but are more like night lights than reading lights. I didn't want to waste the bulbs so I moved them to the bathroom where we leave the lights on all night. I will not be buying any more and would only recommend them for landscape lighting or night lights.
These were pretty good. I honesty went for the 68-smd because these weren't bright enough for my liking. Overall, these were good though.
Have been looking for LEDs that are actually bright enough to be useful in our RV.  While not the brightest we've found (the 68SMD T-15s are) it's a good runner up for when you don't need a lot of light, but bright enough so you don't have a problem seeing.
Better & brighter than standard bulb, no heat, less draw on battery, use on a scooter.Only time will tell on quality.
I used these to replace the last filament bulbs inside my RV.  They seem to produce more light (a lot whiter, anyway) and run very COOL.  I got typical very fast shipping from EZ Motoring.  I've bought led bulbs from them before and am always pleased.  REMEMBER, these are polarized, so if they don't work, remove them and install 180 degrees from the first.  Great item, fast shipping.
it flicker but works great under my hood there brighter than my stock light looks good under the hood lol
Didn't quite fit perfect in factory hole, but it works.  Perfect for backup lights.
I wanted a new dome light for my car, but did not want to go down the boring halogen road, so I got a pair of these to spice up the look of the interior of my car. They work like a charm, light up MUCH more of the inside of my car than the old halogen bulbs do, and consumes less energy. So if you want to look cool, see better at night, and use less energy; quit sitting on your butts and get yourself a set! They work great for me and I'm definite you won't be disappointed either.
Other raters claim they are &#34;super bright&#34; and some complained about being too bright. They are white light as opposed to the warmer colored incandescent and in a side-by-side comparison they do not cast the same volume of light. I replaced all my RV lights and it feels dimmer inside compared with the stock lights.  Mind you they cast sufficient lighting and the wattage saving for dry camping is significant and they are cool to the touch.  However, if you are a full-hook up camper and don't NEED the wattage savings I wouldn't bother with the expence.  They are polorized so installing them is side specific therefore it's a 50-50 chance you have to rotate them on the install.  The volume of light issue rates them an okay and so far they are all working well. The price online is much cheaper than at Camping World or other retailers who want $10-$15 each!  Try a set on your &#34;most used lights&#34; first to see for yourself if you like the look before you invest in a total switch over to LED.
Bought to replace halogen in lights in motorhome. Very pleased. They are brighter and cast a slight blue tint but good for reading and cool
Years ago I very gently tapped the driver in front of me at a stoplight going about 1 mph, and the exposed screws on my license plate lightly scratched the bumper of the person in front of me. It cost me $500 to pay for their bumper to be re-painted. After that I installed caps on my screws, but since then I've been looking for a more robust product like this, and finally found it. This frame looks good, is very well built, and will hopefully save me from damaging other cars or mine.
Update. I went to a drive through car wash and to my surprise the car wash bent the front license plate all up. I removed it and straightened it back up and tried to put the plugs through the bottom the license plate but the things ripped right off. I was pretty pissed. $20 piece of rubber used for protection that cant even be installed with out malfunctioning. Then while poking a hole so can run a screw on the bottom the screw cover piece of rubber ripped off. I lost faith in this for protection. I ended up using zip ties to keep the bottom from being lifted up at the car wash.The company also gives you I think $5 to write a review if you purchase one, but do yourself a favor and just buy something elseSo I put this on a 12 kia optima. Here in Cali you gotta have the front plates so I was on a search for thick license plate frames and stumbled across this on amazon. It's not a bad price after seeing the little thin ones that offer no protection at autozone for about 10-15. I haven't tested it but I'm sure if I was to go battle with shopping carts the bumper will be protected. As long as I hit it dead center with the rubber frame.I was debating going with the HD frame but couldn't justify spending $20 more on a 1/4" of rubber
I drive a C6 Corvette and there has been times when a driver has parked their car right on top of mine.  I'm always worried that the license plate will be pushed into my front end and cause damage.  The flexyframe gives an inch or so of rubber between you and any car that may get too close.  A friend actually parked right against my front end, after I bought my FLexyFrame and I was glad I had it.  Without the protection that the bumper guard affords me I would have had damage.  The HD frame is mighty thick. I also own the LD version too.  For most applications the LD version should be fine.  I used the LD on the front of my vette and the HD on the rear where there was more of a recess. I'm very happy with these frames and would buy them again.
I bought this for a family member's front plate holder, For some reason ,the car didn't have the factory plate holder, but this device made it simple to install the front plate .
This product provides your front bumper a softer point of contact.  Contact with what?  In my experience, bad parkers who would otherwise just back into your vehicle.  It could also protect a bit if the driver in front of you stops or slows down extremely suddenly, and you cannot follow suit.Obviously, it isn't intended to protect your vehicle from hard impacts.  It's really there for those sub-10 mph bumps that can happen in tight quarters.Pro:-pretty soft rubber should be protective-standard mount size should fit any car-type vehicle-basically zero maintenance (I use a little Vinylex on it whenever I wash my car, just for good measure)-protects your license plate a bit too!Con:-somewhat expensive-may hurt the aesthetics of your vehicle (sportscars?)I think it's a great product and I'd recommend it.
Great frame for front of the car, fits nicely and protects the plate and the car bumper of our new car.
I returned this. I am sure it works as promised..It looks well made. I decided I don't have enough room on my handlebar of my Yamaha Vstar 1100. I already have my gps mounted in the center...I bought the waterproof case/mount from Amazon. It works and looks great. then I bought the &#34;direct wire&#34; cable (also from Amazon) and hooked up straight to my battery..cable is tucked underneath the gas tank and seat...that is the way to go...very neat mount. GPS always stays charged up now..I am not concernedabout my cell phone. On a long trip I will charge it at motel ..takes only 30 minutes from any wall outlet. No big deal..I also wonderhow well the Eklipes EK1-110 holds the gps adapter plug.after normal &#34;road vibrations&#34; ..and what about the &#34;rain issue&#34; ?............something to think about..
Great setup for you bike.  Nice charging system for your phone which is also switchable on or off.  Love the indicator light that tells you when it is on and the tight cap that covers the unit.  Mounted it on my handlebars right next to my phone mount so my phone stays charged for the entire ride! The chrome finish really goes with the rest of the chrome on my bike.  I also hooked up the charging plug that comes with it but not sure if I will ever  use it since I don't have the extension to plug it into another bike.  It does exactly what it is meant to do and looks great.  Easy to install and I ran the wires under the gas tank and hid them for a very clean professional install.
the first one exploded when i accidentally reversed the polarity and the second i bought the switch to turn on the usb doesn't usually work with out being fliped back and forth a few times and sometimes even then needs pressure on it to stay on. the screw that holds the bracket together rusted and now i need to change it with a stainless one. cheap fixes but still a pain from a new product.
Bought this unit for my 2012 Suzuki DL650A to charge my GSP and Phone. (Black as it matches the bike)Install was not hard but I found it best to remove some of the plastics and raise the tank a few inches to ease passing.About and hour to set it up and looks high quality both on the parts under the seat near the battery and the exposed sections you plug your USB and Cigarette into.Had a issue and called the company's help phone line and got someone on a Sunday who quickly diagnosed my issue and had a replacement part sent to me in a few days. Thank YOU Eklipes ... nice to have US based customer support.PROLooks close to OEM quality15 Amp fuse protects bikes batteryEasy to connect a battery tender plug using the Eklipes HarnessLove the Switch and LED so you can turn power off to power portsLike the rubber cover to protect the ports from RainCONHarness to the battery could be a few inches longer to allow placement of the covered 15 AMP fuse further away with less tensionRubber / Plastic cover on the 15 Amp fuse could be a little tighter, but as the fuse is under the seat little risk of suchOVERALLWould buy again and recommend to friends to check out this and other EKLIPES products
I just mounted the power port on the handlebar and ran it back to the battery cable and everything works fine.  I don't plan on using the jumper adapter but I love the fact that the power port has an on-off switch.  The mounting bracket feels fragile but it did mount fine.
Planned a week long ride, wanted the ability to plug in my GPS and charge cell phone if needed, worked well for both.  Just remember it does have and on/off button and is wired hot to battery
I put this on my cruiser so I could charge my cell and my bluetooth speaker.The power supply wire had the same plug that I use for my battery charger so I had the place to plug it in on my bike already there.However, the wire was about 12 inches too short. I thought I was going to have to splice 12 inches of wire onto it but was able to reroute my charger pigtail and had just enough wire to plug them in in a great place under my seat. Don't even have to take the seat off either. Another 12 inches added to the hot wire would make this a perfect item.
With todays phones and GPS you need the power supply when you are out for a great day of riding
So I got this the other day and installed it on to my S40. Im a commuter so there is a need for power supply to my various devices, (iPhone, gps, GoPro) I got this because of the features it come with. The quick disconnect allows for you to remove the batter or the device with out having to un wire everything. The on off allows me to know that for some reason it isnt going to drain my battery. On thing that wasnt very clear until I downloaded the instructions that the when it it mounted to the bike, The device must be facing upward inorder to be water proof. Also I wouldnt charge a device in the rain. My only con with this is that the battery connections are staggered so that it can only be placed on the right side of the battery or what ever side the positive battery terminal is. This wasnt a problem for me but I wanted to hide the wires more than I was able to. Final words, It is a must buy.
It does the job alright. The plastic design leaves a lot to be desired though. It's not going to last more than one riding season.
Its plastic chrome the only thing metal is the attachment to the unit. Cover is rubber and fits tightly to prevent water getting into the unit. There is enough wire for any  installment.  This went on my HD, and it connects straight to the battery. The unit has a blue led light showing power is on. Don't forget to turn it off, like I said it connects directly on to your  battery. Its a good unit and worth the $7.00.
The rear &#34;dualies&#34; on my RV are a big pain when it comes time to check for proper inflation.  These work well to avoid having to take of the hub and fidget around on the ground to find the valve.
If you own a Ford motorhome and have dualies this is the perfect extention made to fit into the holes in your rims. Worked the way it says. And the price is good.
I purchased these extenders for $26, I blieve and took them to Discount Tire to have them put on my dually motor home.  They had a difficult time putting them on.  After they installed them the tires leaked all the air and went down 20 pound of air pressure.  Luckily, while on my trip I notice the back drivers side tire was low. A Tire Company I took the motor home to check why the tire was low, took it off and showed me that the ends of the extensions were crushed and causing the problem.  They checked the tire by submerging it into a water tank and there was nothing wrong with the tire  Had them remove the extensions and didn't have any more problems on 4K mile trip.
These are some really heavy duty extensions.  Heavy braided stainless steel and they install easily.  The instructions on package are easy and well written.For the money they are a great price as compared to local products that do not even look anywhere near as heavy duty.Tried them out and they are exactly what I was looking for perfect length.  Hook in easy and did not come loose.
So far, no problems. They make it easy to check pressures and add air if needed. I would buy again.
These seem like a really good choice for getting into the valve in the inner dual tire on the RV. My only complaint is that the mounting spring didn't fit the hand hole in our wheels so I had to do a little bending. They seem to be great, just read the specs closer than I did and measure the hand holes at their widest diameter.
These lights worked very well as running lights and backup lights for my 2005 GMC Yukon. As running lights, they are perfect. Plugged in and gave a updated white light in the daytime. I did have to use some contact cleaner on my plugs. For backup lights they are work very well, I just wish they provided a bit more light - but that is just me as they are at least as bright as the ones I replaced. Remember, unlike incandescent lights, LED lights are sensitive to polarity. Plug them in, before replacing the socket in the lens, test them, if they don't work, turn them around! Overall an excellent plug and play upgrade.
These did not work for my car, even though they are supposed to  be compatible. Be careful, and make sure you properly install them.
Used these as reverse lights for my Jeep Liberty, and were working flawlessly for the first hour, until I noticed that the left bulb's diode started to flicker (very unattractive and annoying). I was going to return it the next day, but it magically began to work again! I hope that it remains this way for it's lifetime. Overall, it gives more clearance lighting when reversing, thus improving safety conditions, all while giving it a more unique look.Update: No problem at all from the diode, which is awesome! I got more experimental when I researched and bought some load resistors, and went ahead and bought two pairs of these for my turn signals. The end result was amazing; I eliminated the hyper-flashing, and gave my tail lights a yellow hue rather than amber, which looks quite unique. My complete LED conversion is almost finished thanks to this combo; brake lights will be coming soon too! These things go together like bread and butter!
The color is not as great as some other auto LEDs I've bought.  Has a slight green tint, not terrible but not the nice white blue I usually see.  Seems like they are tring to make it a bit more 'warm" but it has a slight green to my eye.  I'm measuring 65mA current at 12V and 140mA at 16V.
The brightness is acceptable but not bright enough for use in headlights.  DRL and signal light is possible.  I was not able to use as signal light in my Honda Civic because it kept blowing the fuse.  It allowed too much current back through the circuit taking the fuse out.  It works well as DRL on the Civic.
I got these leds to use on my 2013 Dodge Charger Back up lights. They arrived pretty fast, though I was concerned as the leds didn't look very.. new. Either they weren't or looked a little cheaply constructed. Either way I was surprised when I pluged them in and they were so bright. They have a slightly bluish tint but it's hardly noticeble. Either way they are perfect for what I needed them. Just a word of advice you may have to flip the LED over at times to make sure you get the + & - to the right place. Overall I gave this product 4 stars for the intensity and working  however they lost the star due to the cheap looking quality of the led.
I ordered these for my buddy and me.  We put them in our silverado trucks and they are bright. You can see them from a long way off.  We use them in our daytime running lights.
These will light up every thing behind you, a lot brighter than the factory lights, big difference when you are backing up.
Ordered these originally for the DRL in my 06 Silverado, but they didn't fit into the socket, so instead of cutting off the little tabs that were a bit too long at the base on these bulbs i used these in my reverse lights and fit and look great!
I have a 2003 Chevrolet Tahoe and these backup bulbs will not fit into the sockets. This was a total waste of time and I returned them for a refund.
This bulb was just what I was hoping for. Soo bright, clean look. I installed these in my LED tailight upgrade on my 1997 GMC Sierra. It was a great match. I recomend these bulbs to anyone looking to update or upgrade older equipment.
I do not know how bright they are because they did not fit any light assembly on the car! Uhg!
I give it 4 stars because I couldn't get this bulb in to fit in the front sockets of my truck. They did fit in my  and my reverse lights. These bulbs are very bright.
These work as a 3156 backup light but not a 3157.  My 96 F350 needs 3157 for running, turn, and break lights.  These don't work.  I plugged them into my backup light 3156 and they did work.
My car: 2004 Honda (Acura) TLI've installed these on the rear blinkers. For blinker applications, load resistors are often required and I've installed them. These bulbs are not much brighter than traditional incandescent bulbs but do look nice. The socket was not an exact match for the 7440 bulbs, so I had to modify the socket and had to solder the terminals directly onto the socket, which I do not recommend unless you're skilled in soldering.
These we plug and play just make sure you have the polarity right, just test they before four button everything up.I just bought another set for my brake lights.
these thing where installed in a 2004 silverado z71 1500 ext cab....they light it up when I am backing up...true white and very bright...the flood effect has something to be desired....but they work well and cut through my privacy glass (the tinted rear glass) of my truck well so I can see...
These are not only much less expensive than others I've bought, but a lot brighter.  If you replace all of your tail/turn/brake bulbs, you will need a correcting flasher (also available from Amazon), but the overall result is WELL worth it.  As one who has been harassed by the local cops, I dare them to stop me for tail/brake light problems.  Shipping was VERY fast, and I am delighted with this item.
good lights no problem would buy these again  for my truck if the other went out  cheap bulbs all led
installed these in my 2005 GMC Sierra, they are bright and look good as driving lights, have found them to be close to the HID lights I currently have installed.
I have two honda's and I like to buy OEM parts for them. It's not just anti-freeze. I also bought the rear differetial fluid called pump fluid for my CRV AWD. Only Honda makes this fluid so far?
You can't go wrong with Honda Antifreeze for your Honda!Just use OEM product to maintain your car and it will last.
I never noticed the 50/50 on the jug so now I have to go get more locally, other wise its good
After a re-build and radiator, one bottle was almost enough.Just remember this is pre-mixed.  Do not add water.The coolant is blue tinted, just like it was from day 1.
Had to grab a jug of this to top of my '10 Accord and could not find it anywhere locally. While you can find this cheap online other places the convince of prime shipping made it worth it to go with Amazon. OEM product came sealed and have had no issues since using it with cooling/heating system.
Easy to use, quality oem fluid.  No mixing with distilled water necessary which is nice.
After searching for a cheaper alternative and not wanting to pay a premium for the word "Honda" printed on the bottle, I ended up buying this anyway.  Invariably, people would say that brand XYZ can be used, and often even reported good results at first.  But, anyone who followed up with the review would return to say that the other stuff just didn't work right with the Honda transmission in the long run (within 30k miles, not any extreme abuse).Paid the extra for the Honda branded stuff and ended up ordering more to mimic a flush on the next few oil changes because the original fluid was very dirty.  I'm not usually one to say stick with the OEM and be sure, but in this case, that's what the collective wisdom of the internet led me to.Drained and added exactly 3qt. but many reviews indicated that a bit more would be needed.
very good A+++++++++
I have not had to add fluid to tranny, it is holding its own very good and may order more for drain and refill
It's Honda ATF... Does exactly what it's supposed to. I just bought it here because it was cheaper than anywhere else and I have prime so it is pretty much just as easy as going to the dealer or another auto parts store.Came with all bottles sealed, no leaks or issues.
I ordered this for my Honda accord.  It is Genuine fluid and is affordable. I will order more in the future.
The only fluid that works for hondas. Do not use any of those universal ATF your see around the place, they will mess up your honda transmission. This fluid is for Hondas. I am not saying it can or will work for any other vehicle. It was engineered for hondas, and it does a damn good job of it. The real test that an ATF fluid works well, is if it allows a vehicle to climb hilly terrains, without problems + smooth shifts on highways. I have seen people say their universal ATF fluid shifts fine on highways, (but they never tested it on hilly terrains).I ran into that problem with a few high quality ATF on the market, and then I eventually went back to this OEM fluid. I had lost most of the tranny "power" for more than a year, and after I switched back to this OEM, all the power was restored. Now I can climb some of the steepest hills you can find - like an all-terrain vehicle !  No joke....  Its the only fluid I now use for Hondas, plus I do change it often -  every 6 months (far less than the recommended 30k miles interval. I say better safe than sorry.I have used Amsoil universal ATF, Castrol universal ATF, and the third ATF I cannot recall, since that was years ago. They all failed to deliver, despite they specifically claimed it would work in hondas (it was listed on all their labels - "Honda - ATF Z1"Sidenote: Honda ATF DW-1 now replaces the Z-1 version. It is vastly improved over the previous version. Honda is phasing out the Z-1s. It is also backward compatible, so it can be mixed with Z-1. I have heard though, that the DW-1 is a synthetic ATF (but dont quote me on that...). So it would make it last even longer and resists heat better (if that is really the case).
This automatic trasmission flud is OEM.It has a red tint.Automatic trasmission works smooth.Comes shipped in a individually sealed bag to prevent leakage.I would buy again.
The product you need to use if changing the ATF fluid in a Honda vehicle.  I used to change the fluid on my 2008 Honda Ridgeline.  Buying from Amazon saved me a trip to the dealer!
Simply the best when it comes to AT fluid for hondas/acuras.
i changed my fluid after 60k, i know suppose to be 30k but m car is used i guess the previous owner never did it, i feel the difference in the shift now, and acceleration, top product
I have to say, these bulbs live up to the advertised specifications. They fit into the OEM Dodge headlight housings and plug into the harness exactly like stock parts, and the light output is a very clean & cool white compared to OEM. Not obnoxiously bright or "tinted" like HIDs at all. For the price that Amazon sold them for, these bulbs offer an excellent value for a simple upgrade over "stock" headlights.The downside is that the life expectancy on this type of bulb is only about a year, but still worth the investment if you do a lot of nighttime driving.
I purchased these lights and installed them today. I put one in first to see how it compared to the stock lamps. It was a little bit brighter but maybe about 10% brighter. If I did not put them side by side, I would not have really been able to see the difference. The beam is wider so the side vision improved. My neighbor has the same truck and has HID lamps. We parked the trucks side by side and there was no comparison between these lights and the HID's. These were much yellower and no where near as bright. I expected them to be less bright but not quite as big of a difference. I had the ultras in my previous truck and could see a big difference when I installed the ultras in that truck. From reading the reviews, I expected these to be brighter than the ultras but they seem less bright.  It is not worth the hassle of returning them, but I do plan to go with HID's.I received the product faster then expected and could not have asked for better service.
2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited SaharaH13 will only work as well as the mirror reflecting the light. The stock Jeep headlight unit is a poor design so no matter what bulb is applied the light isn't much brighter. The light spread just isn't good enough to take advantage of the extra brightness from these bulbs. Not the bulbs problem. Still a good bulb though.
I like these light little brighter but it looks better thanks to YouTube and instructions on how to replace lights hope they're going to last
Regular headlights seem to dim in just a few years so I tried these.  How long they stay bright is a question but they certainly light up the road good
These are nice and bright, however, they do not seem overly &#34;white&#34; and still appear fairly yellow when compared to other incandescent headlamps.
Not much difference between these and the Silverstar model I have used in the past as far as I can tell.
I have installed these bulbs on several cars within my family and they seem to be reliable and add a little extra light to the road.  The color is clean white with a tint of blue when looking at the front of the car.  The clean light color looks nice on newer vehicles that don't deserve to be disgraced by yellowish stock bulbs
Installed one, then compared the brightness (at night).  Very lilttle if any difference between this bulb and the 4 year old OEM on he other side.  Dissapointed.
These are Not much different than OEM lights.  I was not overly impressed by much if any difference if any.
I love these bulbs.  They do appear brighter and enable better vision.At the same time, other drivers are not blinded and flashing their lights at us.
The other reviews made it seem like these were copper wire, but they're anodized aluminum.  For 12- foot cables they are about average, I like the jaws that accommodate different battery terminal styles, but they are lightweight and should be fine for occasional jump starts.If your looking for heavy duty cables, these may not be the best choice.
Had a recent incident where the truck was deader n' a doornail and parked nose into a crowded parking lot. Had to reach to the car battery parked next to me which was on the same side as mine. This meant the cables had to reach over their engine to attach and they sure did. Saved by the length!  Totally recommend these over the short ones.  You never know and since the long ones will work when all you need is a short length but the short ones won't work when you need a long length just buy these!
I HAVE NOT REMOVED THE CABLES FROM THE NEAT PACKAGE AND WITH LUCK NEVER WILLThere are only three things I look at when I buy cables.NO TANGLE IS ESSENTIAL. NO MATTER WHAT.Nobody today makes a inexpensive cable set with high quality clamps and these are the one place some are much better than othersThe wire size and material must reflect the length of the cable.  Aluminum is a deal breaker for me most of the time.  If the advertising does not specify copper you might get a clue from the weight.Normally current ratings involve voltage drop of 10% which is acceptable most of the time.Normally jumpers are used to jump charge a battery that is low or dead. rather than actually start the other engine.Any battery that has been drained to 70% normal terminal voltage is damaged and will never fully recover.  Only high end charger / maintenance instruction books will tell you this.I expect this set to perform as jump charge assets for my lifetime as long as they stay clean and dry.
I hope that I don't have to use them anytime soon in an emergency. I have used them once and let me tell you; they work. They work excellent. I didn't jump off my own car thankfully but I helped someone else. They a good tool to have. I would recommend having these always.
Great thick cables to get the job done without fear of getting the cords too hot jump after jumps.  A great item to carry in any car or just to have around the house.
With an order of wire and relays, I saw this package of five fuse holders for less than three bucks. Could not pass this up. They hold blade type fuses and have 16 gauge wire, five times. What a deal this was. Thanks to Amazon for that.
These fuse holders are of very good quality. I buy them  a lot. Will continue to purchase them. You can't go wrong with this product
This was a add on item and you get five holders for less than the price of one at my local auto parts store.
I used these to put a fuse on my LED fogs. It worked great and came with 5. What more could you ask for?
Did't work the plugs were off set and the fuses will not plug into them.  Thanks to Amazon for refunding me my purchase price because all they did was take up room in my garbage can.  DO NOT BUY THESE unless you plan on throwing your money away.
These are great fuse holders and the wires are good. No complaints so far except, I'll have to use pliers to get the fuse out as they are IN THERE! No big deal, I guess that's how they should be but jeez, they are really in there.  =)
I have one visor organizer to hold CDs and I wanted another for some other items on the other visor.  This Hopkins VSR Visor Organizer meets my need and cost $4.74 delivered free with my Prime membership.  Not the pinnacle of quality, but with the low price, I give it 4 Stars.
Hi,This product saved my headache, I have a lot of cards, Civil id, family card, medical insurance and so on, I don't want to carry them with my in  the pocket anymore and I wanted something that keeps them organize and readily available in the car. That is what this Visor does!!!Great quality and space is not too bad,  I hooked it up to my 2012 expedition, it is so neat and organized.
I was really looking for 'straps for sun visor'.  Found them.  Two cost more than this organizer with straps...and shipping cost more than the straps!  Found this and am very pleased.  Now instead of just straps, I have an organizer with straps. It's lightweight, mesh pockets so you can see what's in them.  Can't beat the price.
I drive a jeep wrangler, and I needed somewhere to store my gate access card for work. This was the answer. It has just enough space for everything I need, and it keeps everything in place, even when the top is down.
I really like having this organizer and having everything secure and at my finder tips.  My job requires me to be in a vehicle about 85% of my time and little things like this really help keep me organized.
Great fit, well made and very light weight and reasonably priced visor organizer.  Doesn't add any bulk to the visor and is very convenient.
This ice scraper mitt is a great concept and certainly keeps your hand warm when you need to scrape frost or ice off your windshield and windows, especially on those cold winter mornings.  If you're looking for something for snow, this is not it.  It's specifically made for ice.  The only hangup I have on the mitt design is that the scraper itself has an elongated point extended toward the left to get the hard to reach places such as around window trims or under the windshield wiper and the direction that it's facing is made for left handed individuals.  I'm right handed so it's a little awkward using it to getunder the windshield wiper.  If the point were going in the opposite direction, I'm sure it would feel more natural to me.  I think if it were expanded on both ends, it may have made it more neutral but alas, it doesn't.
It seems to be an unwritten law that whenever I am running late, the ice on my windshield will not melt. I have to hop out of the car with a flimsy Dollar Store ice scraper that is only marginally effective, leaving me later, wetter and grumpier than usual.  These mitts may just be the answer.  Essentially, a thumbless potholder with a ice scraper embedded, they promise to keep your hand warm and dry while removing that annoying ice.  The scraper blace itself is far more substantial than most. It is made of thick plasic, about four and a half inches wide. The side has a serrated edge.  The colors are strong an vivid. The red is gorgeous and the black is rich. They are water resistant and have an elasticized wristwith a cuff that is about four inches. The cozy,grey fleece lining is sure to keep hands warm and toasty.They are one size fits all and are ambidextorous.  Lefties and righties, large and small hands will all be able to use these. Although I have not yet had to uutlize them, they seem to be an ideal solution to one of winter's woes and a thoughtful gift for those who have to brave inclement weather.UPDATE 11/28/12-Used this mitt to to clear an ice and snow laden windshield.  It was excellent, cleaning the ice off efficiently and effectively.  The mitt is waterproof and my hand was warm and dry.
My husband and I both have these ice scrapers in our cars.  They are fantasic!  You have to pull off your gloves if the ones you are wearing are thick, but the mitt keeps our hands warm and protected so that it is easy to slip on our gloves again after using and our hands stay warm.The scraper itself has a wonderful edge which takes the ice off nicely.  For tough ice spots the serrated looking edge cuts through wonderfully and allows us to remove the ice pretty well.  We both love the mitt idea.  It makes it so that our hands are not wet or cold, and the ice scraper works quite well and is easy to use and hold on to.
I am tired of scraping ice and having it go up my sleeve. This ice scraper mitt will prevent that from happening. We may not get more than a few days of ice in Las Vegas but I do travel and this will be in the truck!
These are really soft and warm inside. Very, very large. I'm 5'3" & wear a size 7 ring on ring finger (wedding ring finger)and these almost came up to my elbows. I was worried that the handle inside the glove would be short but it's really quite long, about 6 inches so you can easily get a strong grip on it. The scraper itself is somewhat small but it did a great job and fast without hardly any pressure needed to remove a thick layer of ice that covered the entire windshield & my hand was warm while doing it. I realized it is somewhat difficult to get the glove up over my sleeve of my winter coat. You definitely need your other hand to help stretch it over so no way could I put both gloves on at once. I'm putting one in my car and the other in my van. Thanks vine....great gift....
This is a nice product.  I am I big guy and when I have this on it comes up to my mid forearm.  In single digit temps it kept my hand warm while scraping off the snow and ice.  I bought two of them for my car and my daughters.  I would absolutly buy another one if I was in the market, but I can't see needing one anytime soon.Oh, another nice feature is the scrapper pops out of the glove so you can wash the glove!This thing is just all around win!
I really like these covered scrapers because I am often wearing a business suit and don't have gloves with me.  The X-Gear design is fairly large (not very good for fitting in a glove compartment) and that can be a negative if you have difficulty with it conflicting with whatever sleeves you are wearing.  It extends 3 1/2" inches beyond your wrist.  This can be a real positive in keeping ice and snow from slipping inside.One very nice touch is that the scraper inside the mitt is covered in a soft cloth to make it a bit warmer to the touch.  Of course this has the downside that you won't be able to grip the scraper handle quite at well.So both major features of these scrapers have advantages and disadvantages to them.  Satisfaction will definitely be a matter of personal preference.
These are awesome.  I put one in my car and one in my wife's.  They are perfect for those times you dont have a glove and you need to brush off a light snowfall.  The handle for the scraper goes inside the glove so you can hold it when scraping.  The inside of the glove is a very thick fleece.  The outside is waterproof and very thick.  These are perfect for those quick parking lot wipe downs that are a necessary part of life.  (Also, pretty funny that these arrived last night and we have snow this morning!)
These scrapers were a lot nicer than I anticipated.  They are thick with a warm plush interior, and a tight fit around the wrist that keeps snow out and holds them on nicely.  The scrapers themselves are thick with a good blade that works well and is firmly attached to the glove. I kept one and gave one to my daughter and we are both pleased with these. They appeared made to last a long time, so I thought they were a bargain.
Fit perfect on our jeep wrangler 2010. Extremely easy to install.Great replacement to original. Nice black finish not too shinny.
Professional quality and appearance.  I couldn't be happier with the look in replacing the chrome JEEP logo, giving more of a blackout look to the vehicle.  Nice way to stand apart from the crowd a bit, even more so when paired with other blackout accessories.
This badge was super easy to install and is a great cheap mod.  Looks great for the people looking for a little different, bolder look
My 2012 MW3 (black) should have come with all black accessories but it didn't.I saw this when "shopping" and had to have it. The hardest thing was removing the chrome "Jeep".This emblem came sandwiched between two pieces of clear palstic which made it an absolute breeze to install!It looks 10x better than the chrome one.Now I need to figure out what to do with the antenna and door key locks.
Getting rid of the chrome emblem changed the whole look of my Jeep. Especially when the entire Jeep is Black and White. The old Chrome emblem was an eyesore. Extremely easy to install and looks great
Very simple, cheap cool way to improve your JK over the chrome logo especially if you have all black accessories on your rig.
I installed the black emblem along with the black bezels for the lights. This gave my jeep a new look. Easy install.  Anyone can do it.  Use a hair dryer to remove the old emblem. Then some acetone to remove the old adhesive. Once it is all cleaned up, stick the new logo in place, and you are done!
The color is perfect. Just shiny enough and so deep black.  I blacked out my Amp'd JK with this and the rugged ridge grill inserts, the Euro light guard kit, and now the front looks awesome.
I have all black components on my orange crush JK.  The black &#34;JEEP&#34; on the grill was the finishing touch I was looking for.
This is nice small touch to jeep, my jeep is all black and this was nice change from Crome to simply black, very easy installation
Originally I had taken my chrome one off, but a Jeep ain't a Jeep without the badge on the grille. Looks much better black.
I'm replacing the chrome accents on my 2011 Sahara Tan JKU with black ones. This was a very easy upgrade. I sat my Jeep in the sun for a couple of hours, went out and the old logo just pulled right off after cutting behind them with some fishing line. Then you're left with some sticky residue which comes off very easily with liquid glue remover and elbow grease. I actually marked just above the tops of the old letters with black perm. marker before removing them. Then you just pull the backing paper off of the new logo and apply - moving the logo up 1/8 inch to just cover your marker marks. There is also a film attached to the front of the letters so they all go on at once, you don't have to apply each letter individually. This took about 30 minutes total to remove the old logo and apply the new one. It's been a month and it still looks awesome - no fading so far.
Went on easy, lined up just fine, and is a good fit for my blacked out JK.  No issues at all after being on for about a year so far.
It is such a subtle change to the Jeep, but it makes a really big difference to me.I am sure the average person will never notice that my emblem is Black and not chrome, but it really is a striking change when you know it is there - especially on a Silver Wrangler.Will have to see how the adhesive holds over time...
Really looks Great. Did headlight trim, turn signal trim, grille inserts, and didn't like the chrome Jeep up front. Installed the black Jeep in seconds, and it finished the front.
I bought this nameplate to replace the shiny chrome one that comes on the 2013 Rubi (and most Jeeps, really). The letters are separate just like your existing nameplate probably is now, but remember: you install it as one piece by leaving the front backing in place and sticking the whole thing on. To line things up, I just used some blue painter's tape to underline the old plate before removing it. Good stuff. Get one :)
High quality logo that directly replaced my chrome one on my black ops wrangler. Could not be happier. Removal of the old logo was a breeze (just use paint thinner to get rid of the residue and then prep the surface with rubbing alcohol. The logo comes perfectly spaced out sandwiched between two sheets of sticky plastic. Just peel, place, and press. I recommend marking exactly where your old logo was so you can get a perfect stock match. Definitely get this logo if you are looking to get that &#34;black-out&#34; look
got the logo to swap out that old chrome one. Looks way better on the silver 2011 jeep with the black trim the hardest thing with this was getting off the old logo. It is actually a mopar part and is already spaced apart to fit like the stock logo. to install you just pull off the backing and place on the jeep and pull off the plastic on the front and your done.
I own a 2012 Wrangler (white) and I've removed all chrome and the hood logo was the last piece to go.  I replaced it with this black emblem, and it looks awesome.  Getting the old emblem off was really easy using a hair dryer and pliers (just to grab it since it was so freakin HOT).  It was a little work to get the adhesive off, but a little WD40 worked great for that.  Then I cleaned off the film from the WD40 with 409, and finally used an alcohol swab to prep the surface of the hood.The new emblem looks great.  I ordered two more, and plan to remove the Wrangler decal on the side of my jeep and replace them with these bad boys.
When looking for snow clearing devices, remember one thing:  Many states are now requiring that you clear ALL of the snow off of your car, including the roof.I have been looking for a better scraper for the winter, and I think I have found it in the Snow Broom.  It appears to be well made, and the length is perfect to clear the roof and hood/trunk.I'm just waiting for the first snow to run actual tests with it.
The good:  Easy to assemble/disassemble.  It's super light weight and it won't scratch.  It locks and has a great read for getting the snow off of your roof.  Ice scrapers are always handy to have, especially one on a long shaft to help with the windshield.The bad: seems very cheap and I can't see it handling heavy snow accumulation.But I do like the concept and it is safer for your car's finish than a houshold broom.
It is nearly Christmas and we haven't had a huge snow yet.  Tomorrow...ugh.  Anyway, I like that this has both the snow broom and scraper together.  It feels very sturdy and the ice scraper works really well.  When it snows tomorrow, I will update whether or not the broom part works as well as I believe it will, judging from the sturdy construction.I do NOT look forward to using this.Stay warm!**update. It works wonderfully well at pushing snow off of my FJ without me feeling like I am using some abrasive broom on the truck I love.The blade seems to have fallen off of the ice scraper end, which is a bummer.  Maybe the ice was too thick the last time.
Having lived in Chicago, Philly, and soon to be Minneapolis I have seen and used my fair share of window scrapers and various window-scraping conditions. I would put this at a 3 of 5 stars because there really isn't anything special about it and it is almost too specialized.Pro's: Telescoping handle for reaching further is steady and not wobbly; big push pad for heavy snow; decent sized-sturdy scraping unit.Con's: Telescoping handle (I was really excited about this part, but found that the leverage just isn't there to make the scraper work at a greater distance. I'm 5'5" so maybe this is a great feature for taller people who can get the leverage); the push pad is huge and gets in the way if you don't take it off; there isn't a brush to brush off the scraped ice/frost and the pad won't do the job on that stuff.I think this product is great if you are in an area that gets a lot of wet, heavy snow that doesn't freeze to your windshield. But if you live in the real winter areas where that lovely layer of ice builds up on your windshield you will wish you had a standard brush and scraper tool that fits easily in your trunk or on the back floor of your car. This puppy needs the trunk.
We has a 10.5" snowfall last week so I had a perfect opportunity to try this out on my CRV that sits outside.The good is it does do a much more efficient job than a brush and is much kinder to the paint. I like that the foam head unscrews and snaps onto the handle for compact storage in the car and there is a hole in the scraper so it can hang on a nail or hook. When using the scraper end it is best not to have the foam head attached.The bad/inconvienent is the foam head screws on and when using it the head can start to turn if you put counterclockwise pressure on it. The telescoping handle takes a bit of fiddling to get it into the lock position.Aside from those issues it is so much easier to clear snow off my car especially the high roof on my compact SUV I will continue to use it and would recommend with reservations.
This is not a bad snow pusher and ice scraper as far as they go.  My only real problem with it is the sheer bulk of the item which makes it a little inconvenient to just store in in the back seat of my smaller car.
I waited for actual snow before writing this review, it's snowed about 3 inches so I unpackaged this unit donned my gloves and hat and set forth to clear my car. There are two clips on the unit where the handle is stored, unclipped the handle and adjusted for size. ( I have a small SUV) First setback was the units handle locking and unlocking system is tight and secure, really really tight and secure! After some grunting and twisting I got the thing set up. When tight, unlike the photo the scraper is at a 90 degree angle to the snow pusher ( more on this later). The foam snow pusher actually did a good job and cleared snow cleanly with no marring, it seemed to hold up to the usual edges and bumps from wipers, antennas, etc. and the length made the job quick.After snow removal I used the scraper end to get the light coat of ice off the windows. Because the foam pusher end is at 90 degrees to the scraper you end up trying to manage scraping with a wet 18 inch or so pusher end oriented up and down dripping icy water on you while trying to scrape horizontally. Trying to unlock the handle for storage with wet cold gloves was an exercise in frustration I managed it by sitting in my car for some leverage. Now I'm no weakling but I can't imagine a slightly built person or a lessor grip actually adjusting this thing on a cold dark wet icy morning with cold wet fingers. I was soaked by the time I was done.Overall, a good idea, but poor execution.
Living in the Midwest, I have lots of experience with snow and the need to remove snow from a vehicle.  This was the first time I had used a snow broom type product.  The best part of the product is that the head is very large and allows fast clearance of snow by pushing and pulling motion.  It also did not damage the paint on my vehicle.  The telescoping pole feature works fine and does not collapse back onto itself when using.  The head does come loose from the pole occasionally, but that may be technique related.  The head unscrews and clips onto the pole for storage.  The ice scraper part is just typical, nothing special.  What I don't like is the overall size/bulkiness of the product.  It takes up a huge amount of space in my trunk, vs. a typical snow brush.  Thus, I have gone back to using my trusty snowbrush and separate ice scraper.  I do think the Snow Joe would be great for someone with a large truck.
The foam isn't tight on the housing and I had a hard time getting the pole to slide on the shaft. I do like that I can store it and it takes up little space in my vehicle but I'm on the fence if I am going to keep it.
Haven't had the opportunity  to use this yet since we've had no snow. But I can say it is made entirely of plastic and styrofoam, so I'm not sure how well it will hold up. It does come apart and store flat, which is a nice feature. The materials seem a little flimsy, but I think if you're very careful with it, it should do fine with light snow.
I've never owned a snow broom before. I excitedly tried this one out on my SUV tonight, and had mixed feelings:THE GOOD:It works very well to push large amounts of snow off cleanly-- even did a better job than my usual brush, with much less effort.THE BAD:The locking mechanism and connection to the "broom." My hands were very cold, which made it hard to screw on the foam "broom" to the handle, but I got it. Then I tried to pull out the telescoping handle, and couldn't. I had to step on the foam and pull up on the handle. That worked. However, it wouldn't stay locked in the "out" position. While I was pushing the snow around, the handle kept retracting. That would be pain enough, but here's what was worse:The handle ALSO kept unscrewing from the foam. The foam was actually spinning around in the wind. I couldn't get it to stay securely on, even though I tightened it as far as it would go. The slightest movement made it loosen and start unscrewing again.So, in short, I'll still keep it handy because even with the annoyances, it got the job done faster than with a brush and scraper and with less worry about scratching my car, but if I were looking for a snow broom, I'd try a different model first.
I lived on Lake Ontario for 8 years. Lake effect snow was a daily topic of news from November to May. So I moved further south to get away but the snow followed me. Luckily not as much.But when snow does cover my minivan, which is parked outside at all times, it is a pain to quickly remove snow before going on my way. The Snow Joe is a good way to reach far, clear without scraping and scratching and get the snow off of the roof.The Snow Joe collapses down and detaches from the head. The handle snaps onto the head for storage.The only issue I had with it was that the handle didn't always stay tightly screwed onto the head and the handle was sometimes hard to lock into the telescoped position.Overall, the foam is nice and gives me confidence that I won't get scratches and the telescoping handle reaches the top of the van and middle of the windshield. The ice scraper on the other end is okay, pretty standard.
This has to be the largest snow pusher/scraper I have ever seen!  The pole/handle is adjustable so you can vary the length of it which is nice for those hard to reach spots.  The snow pusher part...well, it's just BIG, it's made with a foam spongy type material, I'm not sure how long it will hold up, to me the entire thing felt a little clunky due to it's size, but my son thought it worked well.  Nothing spectacular.  I'd have to say that the best feature is the adjustable handle.
When home and the car is out and gets snowed on, I usually use a broom to clear it, though I think that might not be great for the paint. (When away, I use a brush/scraper combo thing.) So I was pleased to try this out. It makes light work of pushing the snow off the car, and I love it for that. Additionally, for scraping, the long handle makes scraping go a bit easier in places. I think I am going to be very happy to have this this winter. Four stars because it's just not excellent... the foam end will wear out and as another reviewer said, the scraper end ends up at an odd angle, relative to the foam end. But I like it.Pros:1. Long length and large foam rectangle means you can push snow off quickly.2. Long handle was also helpful for scrapingCons:1. Blue foam end is probably just the right thing, but it doesn't seem durable2. The two ends should be at the same angle, but are at 90 degree angles.Overall, I found it to be a helpful tool, and I'm happy to have it this winter.
I normally hate snow, but after getting this, it was pure torture waiting for the snow to come.  Thankfully, it finally did.This is everything the manufacturer says it is.  I have grip problems because of disc issues in my neck, yet I was able to easily able to unscrew the handle to its full length.  Because I'm short, I needed the full length of the handle to get the roof of my Hyundai Sonata.  This Snow Joe made it very easy to clear the entire width of the car's roof from one side, without having to walk around to the other side of the car.  The ice scraper worked very well on my windows, and I was able to clear both sides of the windshield (again, from one side of the car, without having to walk around to the other side of the car).So, if I like this Snow Joe so much, why did I mark it down a star?  Because the handle gets COLD -- FAST!  It wasn't horribly cold for these parts (around 30 F), and I normally wouldn't bother with gloves if I'm just clearing snow from the car without having to go anywhere.  While it took less time than it usually does to clear the snow from my car (probably less two minutes to scrape the windows AND clear the snow from the rest of the car), by time I was done, my hands were painfully cold -- even though I had been storing the Snow Joe in my warm house.  Be sure and wear gloves when you use this, even if you normally "don't need no stinkin' gloves!"
Driving with snow on your car or truck is not only dangerous it's just dang rude.  Eventually that snow will fly off, or worse, ice over and fly off creating unsafe conditions.  Shoot, in many states it's illegal to leave snow piled on your car/truck so, use this to push or pull it off.The blue blade is foam, no sharp edges, no way to scratch up your vehicle.  It's light weight and when disassembled is rather compact.  I say disassembled because to remove the blade, you have to unscrew it. I expected that it would fold, but the unscrew thing isn't a problem.
The Snow Joes easily pushes heavy, wet snow off the roof, hood, and trunk of your car and works better than brooms. It's made with a durable reinforced molded polyethylene foam head and prevents scratching. The telescoping handle extends up to 49-inch providing maximum reach with no strain on the operator. The snow joe snow  features an ice scraper as well to assist with ice buildup on your windshield. This product breaks down to a convenient size when not using and offers a two year full warranty. To extend the snow broom for the first time, screw the pole to the foam head. Twist the bottom portion of the pole to the left and pull hard. You will only need to pull hard the first time you use the snow broom. To lock the lower pole in place, simply twist the pole to the right.
I have a 3/4 ton truck and like these snow removers.  This one would have gotten 5 stars if the handle was longer
I was looking forward to getting this Snow Joe, and when it arrived we quickly saw both pros and cons.The long adjustable handle is both a pro (great for staying dry while brushing off your car in the snow), but also a con - (the handle is nearly impossible to open and once you finally open it -- impossible to close) - I could barely fit it in my trunk with the handle stuck in the "extend position".The wide broom portion is a definite plus for cleaning off a car in a hurry; it's nice and lightweight as well. I'm not sure how durable the broom portion will be because it seems to be made of some sort of styrofoam?The ice scraper is another con - it's a very small scraper (just over 3") which was surprising for having such a large broom on the other end.  However, at $20.00, the price is a pro.  Good gift item for a coworker too.
This Snow Broom is an improved &#34;snow pusher&#34; for 32 cents more than I paid for my smaller version (Sno Brum Snow Removal Brush) several years ago. Thanks to Amazon Prime's free shipping, the new, larger &#34;broom&#34; actually cost me $8.63 less than the old one. And, it has an attached ice scraper. This is absolutely the best automobile snow removal tool ever invented. You get a clean car with no scratches. You should order one right now so you are ready for next year's snow.
Wish I would have gotten one of these years ago.  We've received more snow then usual here in NEPA this past season and this has helped clean the cars off much faster (with excessive snowfall) then a scraper or regular broom.  Telescoping handle is very nice and the scraper on the other end is great as well.Def worth the investment.
I live in an apartment, so if it snows, my car is getting covered. This "snow broom" is sturdy enough to pull even heavy, dense snow off my car without scratching it. It even retracts and folds up neatly so that it doesn't dominate the floor of my backseat area. It's a little awkward for heavy scraping, but it does work. If you have to park your car outside when it snows, this is a good way to get an overnight's worth of accumulation off of your car.
Due to lack of current garage space one of our vehicles is staying outside in the winter for the first time and here in the North East we're going through a particularly bad cold, blustery spell. It was with great relief that I received the combo ice-scraper and snow 'broom' as, up until now, we haven't needed one and so we were without.The telescopic stem comes clipped to the foam broom for storage and easily screws into the base for use. On one side is a firm plastic scraper and the other has the hardy blue foam rake. Our car was covered in snow about three inches deep and it was quickly dispatched by using the sturdy but soft broom part. It was so cold that the wipers were frozen to the screen and after using the scraper to get off the ice I used it to pop up the wipers so they would work.There's no chance of damage from using the scraper or the broom and really it's a simple fact that without it I would not have been able to drive my car. So for that, and the super low price, this is a five star product.The fact that it can be folded back up for storage is just the icing (hah!) on the snowy cake.
I wanted to love this buffer.  The manual says it is intended for polishing and brushing metal and polishing stone.  The assembly instructions refer to several pieces that were not included.  However it does not say they are options and doesn't give any part numbers or info so you may order them.  All that is in the package is the buffer with D-Handle and mounting bolts, a velcro backed polishing plate and the manual.  So you can't use this buffer without at least buying a foam pad.  For almost $200, they could at least include one pad.  The gold standard Porter Cable polisher includes a foam pad and sanding disk for $60 less.My sample unit was leaking oil from the gearbox.  Also, I'm not crazy about the trigger assembly.  It is awkward to use in my opinion.  I'd prefer the standard trigger with button lock but the "Tri-Control" paddle locks even when you don't want it to and it's easy to bump it off when you are using it and want it locked on.  Not a great design...These quirks aside, I found this to be a very powerful and capable buffer.  Other than the aforementioned trigger, it is very comfortable in my hands and you can put a lot of pressure on it without it straining.  The electronic feedback keeps the speed constant regardless of the amount of pressure you apply.  The operating position is very comfortable and the polisher has 6 speeds from 750-3000 RPM.  I'd advise anyone who has not used a standard polisher to be careful and start at slow RPM.  You can easily burn through the paint or leave swirl marks if you use too much pressure or high RPM.  A random orbit polisher is a better choice and more forgiving for anyone not experienced in using this type of tool but if heavy cutting or sanding is required, this machine is very capable.
This is the real deal. I own an old airplane and it needed some work. I used this to buff the old plexiglass windscreen and to bring back the sparkle to the old paint. The adjustability is perfect and so is the weight. I'm super happy with this polisher and look forward to using for many years. I'll probably have to designate who get this in my will otherwise my kids are going to fight over it.
This Bosch GP712VS Large Angle Polisher is a car finish tool called a rotary polisher.  These polishers are used by professional body shops, detailers, etc. Combined with pads, such as cutting, polishing, and finishing pads, and chemical products to do a variety of processes to a paint finish.  With the correct combination they can remove minor defects and swirls from a car's paint, apply polishing oils, and apply wax.  It is important to note that no pads are included with the polisher.  Pads would have to be purchased separately and attached via the supplied backing plate.However, much of these processes are truly left to a professional.  This machine is powerful enough that if the technique is not correct with the proper pad and liquid product, you can "burn" the paint finish.As simply a pro-consumer, I choose to use a DA polisher instead as it's much safer on the paint as I do not have any professional training or experience.  Nevertheless, I did strap a non-aggressive finishing pad on this product, set it at a low speed, and applied some wax.  It worked great.  The quality of this Bosch product is apparent.  It has good weight to it, and a motor that sounds oh so professional and strong.One look at this product and you will see and feel, it is truly professional quality.  If you are a professional, you likely know with this polisher, you are buying one of the best!  Recommended for professionals.  Consumers should stick with a DA polisher or work by hand.
The Bosch large angle polisher is well balanced and seems to function well at various speeds. I like Bosch tools and have a few and have always found them to be good quality. Here's the problem... I acquired the polisher to polish, which it seems to do well, but I also wanted to use it for sanding. It would work well particularly for taking off paint or rough sanding or some limited grinding. There are few if any sanding discs available. The Bosch site itself only sells hook and loop up to 6". This is a 7" machine. I shopped Home Depot, Farm and Fleet and Menards and found nothing in hook and loop in the 7" size.I did find some on line, but they are very expensive and must be bought in large quantities. Amazon sells only one disc type in the 240 grit for about $16. for three. If you just want this machine for polishing, wool, hook and loop buffs are available for about $12.-$15. I have little doubt judging by the solid feel of the machine and its seeming power and variable speeds that it will work well if you want it only for polishing. If you want it as a more versatile machine, look elsewhere.
I just put on the wipers, and after two weeks (and two rains) notice that they just don't wipe as effectively as my Rain-X.  I will try to clean them to see if that makes any improvement.Otherwise the fit was good, easy installation, and they lasted more than a day (unlike the Anco's I bought when I had no other choice).  Like the idea of the wear indicator as well, but not sure how accurate it is.
These wipers come with four different types of adapters which should make them compatible with most car makes.My car uses the most common type of adapter, the J-hook.  I have always gotten blades that have an obvious hook on them and have snapped them on without even having to think about it.These required several minutes of me having to think about which adapter to use, although the pictures showing each type of adapter on the inside of the cover was pretty straightforward.It took me several minutes of struggle to get the adapter for the hook type mechanism to fit securely onto the blade.  At first I had simply put the adapter into the connecting place on the blade, but it clearly wasn't secured and would simply lift right off.  After a few minutes of puzzling over the installation picture, then trying different things on the adapter, I finally was able to get it to snap securely onto the blade.The adapter seems a bit big and bulky.  It's a minor point but still, it is definitely bigger than other wipers have.Right after I installed these on my car we had a nice downpour here, our first in many months.  These performed flawlessly.I did not remove the little sticker that covers up the yellow wear indicator.I can tell when a wiper blade needs replacing easily enough and don't want a yellow reminder to look at.  Here we get so much sun glare year round that I replace wiper blades about once a year, and tires every two or three years, even though they still have plenty of tread, due to rubber rot.These seem about as good as the Bosch wiper blades they replaced, although not quite as simple to install due to having to attach an extra piece.
I was very surprised at how easy these are to put onto the car and especially appreciate the video here on the product page. Even more, it is nice to have wipers that work well both in rain and snow.My Saturn requires two sizes (one for driver and a different for passenger), so be sure to check sizes before buying.
The ACDelco 26" Clear Vision Wiper blade fits the driver's side and the 21" the passenger's side of my 2004 Dodge Durango 4X4. The wipers themselves perform great! They "hug" the windshield, leaving a streak-free clear field of vision. What worries me is the flimsy hardware. The clip/bracket is only held together with a small piece of cheap plastic that can easily come off. With the harsh winters we have here in Western New York, I worry these wipers will easily break off when frozen to my windshield.It will be interesting to see how the wear indicator works out since it is suppose to take out the guess work of when to change your wipers. I was always going by the the numbers of streaks left behind to let me know it was time for new wipers.UPDATE 01/22/2013It happen...we have about 4 feet of snow fall and the temperatures fall down to 10 degrees Fahrenheit. I went to lift the wipers off the windshield and I saw one of the black plastic brackets fly up in the air and was left with the wiper on my hand. Luckily I was able to fins the bracket to attach the wiper back on till I could get back home to change them to a winter wiper.I believe these are probably a great Spring or Summer wiper but not made to tackle a harsh winter.
By and large this is a very good replacement blade.Not the cheapest but certainly there are more expensive replacements out there.Double check your vehicle's specifications before ordering.Easily installed.As with most new items, time will tell how well and long the wiper blade will maintain a clear windshield.
Down here in the swamp life is hard on a wiper blade. We don't park in the garage, though I hear some people do, but I put that down as yankees pulling our chain. Everyone knows garages are for storage and possibly gramp's still, not that I anything about no moonshine, no sirree.What I do know is that a wiper blade will get hit by humidity so thick we can swim through the air, the sun beating on it mercilessly, rain pouring onto that wiper blade like a car wash! It will be hit with hail, road debris flying through the air, and chunks of rocks off the back of illegal dump trucks and legal ones alike.And through it all we expect it to clean our windshields! and the ACDelco does just that. Easy to install, which various size clip included to get it perfect for our car, a great large cleaning arch and a blade that clings to to the windshield tighter than that 'gator did Uncle Beaudreux's leg that time they were mudbug fishing down in the bayou.We have had these going on several months now and they continue do to the job of wiping our windows from the muck and rain and clear us a nice spot to see all the crazy drivers down here when it's raining. You'd think we'd be the best drivers in rain anywhere, being used to it and all, you'd be wrong. But with the ACDelco clear vision we can see 'em slamming on their brakes, makings sudden crazy lane changes, in pouring rain.Recommended highly if you live in a swamp, or any where else!
Wiper came loose and allow arm to scratch wind shield. I even check several times to made sure wipers are attached securely. Lousy design.
I've been using beam blades for some time now, but just for kicks I bought a really cheap traditional blade to see if the performance was really any different.  Initially, all blades seem great - they wipe well and all perform about the same.  Beams are definitely nice in the winter time and that was reinforced by my recent test with the traditional style.  On highways, the beam stick to the windshield better and chatter less.I've tried many different types of beams from Bosch, Valeo and others.  The ACDelco's rate right up there with them, and honestly even among the "premium" vs. standard beam blades, I have never seen much difference in performance even when the price is substantially different.This blade in particular is very easy to install on my 98 Camry.  Over time it's just like others where it'll leave small streaks, but generally won't miss a large swath.  Also like all beam blades I've tried, their aerodynamics cause a bit of a low pressure zone right behind the blade, causing some water to follow the blade from the edge of the windshield back into your view.  This is the most annoying aspect of them to me, and these blades have that effect just like all the others I've tried.In summary, I think this blade performs as well as any other brand of beam blade, so in the future, price would be the deciding factor for me.
4/10/13 UPDATE: since these wipers are a Gold Box deal today, I thought some would want to know that these wipers are still performing well after approx. 3 months.  They have been through snow, ice & rain, and the wipers still grip the windshield well & do a nice job of clearing without streaking.  At the current GB price, I would purchase the wiper despite the high profile snap.ORIGINAL REVIEW:As with most wipers that I have tried, these ACDelco wipers work quite well out of the box.  They grip well in rain & snow events and do a great job clearing the windshield.  However, time will tell.  My car is an outside car & is exposed to beating down sun, below zero cold, ice and snow.  I will update this review in a few months to let you know how the wipers are doing.Installation is easy, but you need to make sure they are snapped in.  My installer (spouse) did not & after a couple of uses, one of my wipers fell off when I was trying to clean my windshield. With a quick snap back on, the wiper has stayed in place since.The only mild annoyance about these wipers is that they seem to have a high profile snap mechanism (they stick up pretty high).  I've kind of gotten use to them, but I still notice.So, overall, as with most new wipers, the ACDelco wipers are performing well.  I will update with a report on the yellow dot sensor & the longevity of the wipers when exposed continuously to outdoor elements.
There are quite a few reviews I read where they had assembly problems - glad it wasn't just me!The instructions are very small and non intuitive. I ended up needing my car owner's manual to see how to remove the old wiper - but that's more of my car problem (Honda), not this wiper.My car is a 2007 Honda Civic. The style of my wiper (and for Honda wipers in general I believe) is the 'hook' style. See the pictures they have on the product page. For the 'hook' style notice the adapter you have to use. BTW, this package comes with all kinds of adapters depending on which one you need for your car, so that's good. Kind of wasteful too I guess, but you should be covered for your car.When I finally got my old wiper off, this was easy to install. BUT, I cannot put the original Honda cap over the wiper - it won't fit. So the new wiper changes the looks.But I don't really care much about that - the wiping action is really good. At least for now (I've only used this for a few weeks). Doesn't leave any smears, cleans very well.Not sure how to recommend this product - it works well in it's cleaning/wiping action. But it might be difficult to install (more because of the old wiper for me), and it may change the look of your wipers (so you can't mix and match for sure, unless you don't care about looks!). You might want to look at some instructional pictures/videos for more information on the installation..But if wiping/cleaning action is really important to you (and I'm sure it is to some degree), this one works really well in that regard.Hope that helps.
I really appreciate that the product page for this item contains an installation video. Watching that before installing my wipers made installation a breeze. I had them installed in just a few minutes. These wipers appear to be sturdy and well constructed. They do a good job of wiping with no streaks. Overall, great product.
These are generally OK blades in that they do what they are supposed to do - clear the windshield. However, I found them to be a clear notch below the Bosch ICON in terms of both performance and build quality.On the plus side, the ACDelco's come with a wide variety of attachment accessories. I can't imagine there is a wiper arm that these won't fit on using one of the supplied connection adapters.The overall heft of the blade, however, is definitely lower than that of the ICON. The ACDelco's are lighter weight and just don't feel as "solid" as the Bosch.That translates to performance. I put the ACDelco on the passenger side, and kept the ICON (about 1 month old) on the drivers side. The Bosch cleaned very well - no streaks or misses. The ACDelco left some water in streaks on the upstroke, but got them on the downstroke. The Bosch were almost silent; the ACDelco made some noise - not what I'd call loud, but certainly louder in operation than the Bosch.The unique feature of the AC Delco is that it has a "wear strip" that turns color when (supposedly) it's time to change the blade. I don't see much value in that. I change wiper blades when one (or both) of the following occur:1. It makes more noise than I can live with2. It does not clean the windshield to my satisfaction.I really don't need a color change to help me make that decision.While the Bosch cost more, for me they are worth it. The AC Delco are less expensive but less effective. If you're not fussy about wiper blades these are worth a shot; if not go for the ICONs.
Living in the Pacific NW, we get our fair share of rain, sleet, hail and a little snow.  I decided to test this wiper out against theRain-X 5079279 Latitude 8-In-1 Premium Graphite Coated Wiper Bladethat we had just installed on our 2000 Chevrolet Impala.  Both install very easily (We put one on either side) and the price point on each is similar and something we are comfortable paying for a good wiper. Where they differed was on performance; the ACDelco was the clear winner when it came to wiping the windshield and coming into contact with all the areas it should have. I'll assume that it's in part due to its claim of having "1,500 pressure points".  All I can say is that the Rain-X one missed two very small areas on our windshield because it wasn't connecting with the glass just right.  Overall I'm pleased with this wiper and will come back (hopefully) to update it when the wear indicator appears.
I installed these Wipers on my truck and it only took me a few minutes. My truck uses a hook lock to hold the wiper blades in place so it was just a matter of snapping the correct adapter into place, pulling off the old wiper blades and installing the new blades. While replacing my wipers I was comparing these new blades to my previously used Bosch Clear Advantage blades. In many ways they are very similar but overall these blades look slightly cheaper and the hook adapter is noticeably larger and stands out more. The size of the adapter isn't a huge deal to me but if I was deciding on which blades to purchase and they were both similar in price then I would probably go with my old blade because they look better. These have worked well so far and give me a clean and streak free window when it comes to rain. They aren't the best when it comes to ice but most wipers aren't. They remove snow effectively as well. They also have a indicator on them that turns yellow when it's time to replace the blade. Sounds like a cool idea but really shouldn't it be obvious if you need new blades because they will start to streak or break apart. These wipers perform well I just wish they would minimize the size of the adapter to give them a sleeker look.
I am a big fan of these single beam wiper blades, and this blade works well. The blade contours well to the windshield, no missed spots, no chatter.The wear indicator seems to be a small colored dot that changes color over time, not really a "wear" indicator, but an indicator for the lengths of time the wiper is exposed to the elements. Perhaps this blade lasts so long they want to remind you to buy another set?The downside of this particular blade is the adapter. It is big, bulky, and overly complex. I am glad they post the video online because the instructions may not be clear.The install of the proper clip is fairly easy, but there are too many parts in the box, no indication as to what needs to be used together, and it is difficult to identify the proper orientation for the clip to be installed.I use what I thought was the most popular u curve slide in clip. The adapter for that type on this blade is very large. Most wipers I have used have a very low profile for this type, the u curve slides easily into the main connector. But on this blade you have to add a bulky tower connector and the u curve attaches there.If you have a blade that slides down into a hidden area, I wonder if there might be some clearance issues. My car doesn't have that so I stare at that big black box right in front of me all the time.
These are fantastic wiper blades made by ACDelco.  They went on easily and have been working great to keep my windshield streak free.  I have great vision driving in the rain when using these and they do their job perfectly.  They do a great job of hugging the windshield. They have a built in wear indicator that lets you know when to replace them, and I am curious to know how long these are "suppose" to last.  I highly recommend these for your car.
This ACDelco Clear Vision Wiper Blade replaced the worn out OEM passenger side wiper on my G35.  The newer beam style design works much better than the old spring-loaded metal framed wipers.Likes:>Easy to install.  Includes several wiper adapters.  Motorists who have replaced wipers before shouldn't have any problems.>The beam design utilizes a flexible plastic frame for increasing the contact points on the windshield, and exerting more down force on the wiper for large, consistent, clean sweeps.>"Advanced rubber technology" claimed by ACDelco does work better; provides less streaking and squealing of the wipers for smoother operation.>So far I've only used this wiper during two rain showers.  Noticeably smoother when clearing light rain/mist and had no problem clearing the windshield during heavier downpours.>Comparable to theBosch 22-CA Clear Advantage Beam Wiper BladeI'm currently using on the driver's side.Dislikes:>Costs about double the price of conventional wipers and more than the Bosch CA Beam wipers.>Questionable effectiveness of the wear indicator on the side of the blade.  I usually replace blades when they start to crack, tear, streak, or squeal.Overall:This wiper does its job very well but costs more.  Long term durability and resistance to the elements (most wipers degrade just sitting under the sun) remains to be seen.
These blades are nice and snug against the windshield. They have a curve that goes right up against it. I got these for my son's S10 Chevy pick up truck, and they work great. My only concern was installing them. I didn't do it right the first time, and the wiper flew right off the wiper arm. My son installed it again, and I guess he did it right, because it has stayed on ever since. He said he really likes these blades, because they have a indicator that shows you when they need to be replaced.
I put a set of these blades on my truck 2 months ago. according to the package it's hot selling point is the "wear indicator" where the black dot will change to yellow to let you know when you should change the blade.Well, admittedly I am no where near the yellow dot, in fact my dot is still very much black. HOWEVER I have hit another snag with these wiper blades and that is that the blades provide multiple hinge attachments so that the blade can be used with any wiper arms. Here is the problem The top lock pinch tab that is separate and needs to be attached to the blade and then you choose the adaptor needed to convert the blade to your vehicle ie.side lock, hook lock, pin side, etc. It is a classic engineering quandary, theory vs. practice: What looks great on paper doesn't quite make it in the real world.I live in Wyoming. It is cold and dry and sometimes wet & frozen, we have temperature fluctuations. Twice since I've snapped all the components together I've had to re-attach them because the cold warps the plastic and causes them to pop apart. I have actually been able to overcome this problem with trusty duct tape. And with the tape making sure everything holds together these are pretty good blades. But I don't think a person should have to pay 17-plus-bucks for something that will require duct tape to secure success.
I removed the driver's side wiper blade from my pick-up. I was unable to install the ACDelco with any of the adapters that were furnished. I went to the Amazon web site and entered the information for my vehicle and the response was that this wiper blade was a match for my vehicle. So, it must be just me that can't get it installed and I need to try a different approach.I took my Frontier back to the Nissan dealer where I purchased the vehicle. I asked the dealer to install the wiper blade and while there go ahead and change the oil and rotate the tires. The dealer did the oil and tire thing as usual but was unable to get the ACDelco blade to work. I asked him to put my original blade back on, which he did, and I recycled the ACDelco.Against the advice I did look this gift horse in the mouth and it had no teeth.
I put this wiper on my 2003 Chevy Astro van and it works fine! It come with many different attaching pieces, so be sure to watch the video -- the little tiny diagrams are hard to see in the package. I don't know if the package would be any different in a retail store, but the one I got was easy to open -- it just kind of pops open without needing a knife or nuclear weapons.This kind of vehicle the wipers come off easy -- the hardest part was trying to figure out which piece to use.The only drawback to me is the price -- it seems a bit high.
These are the best. They say they have lots of pressure points, and it must be true, as my winshield has never been so clean and clear. I will not go back to the cheap generic wippers again. I also love the idea that they come with Wear-indication system, that alerts the driver when it's time to replace the blade as the indicator turns from black to green to yellow. Now I will know when it it time to buy new and not have to wait for it to suddenly stop performing in a rainstorm.
I've used several brands of wiper blades over the years, and these are among the best I've used. No streaks, easy to install, and high build quality. Not much more you can ask for. I have only been using these for a couple weeks now so I'll provide an update in the summer to see how well they hold up. But as it stands right now, I'd definitely recommend these wiper blades.
I've always liked ACDelco parts, and have never really had an issue with any of them.  I'd usually bought and used whatever wiper blades were at the auto parts store (typically ANCO.  I've never been impressed with ANCO.  They seem to be cheap plastic junk that break at the pivot.)These ACDelco seem to be just as good as the other standard quality blades I've used.  They wipe nicely, fit the windshield good.  They aren't like some where the outer 2&#34; doesn't even touch.So far, so Good.
This is the second brand of this type ("frameless") of wiper that I have used and I have to say that I am impressed with these ones as well.  Usually at highway speeds, standard framed wipers (or worse yet -jacketed winter wipers) start to lift a bit or do not maintain full contact with my windshield, but these low profile wipers keep full contact along the full length for a clear windshield.  There was no squeak or stutter at any time, even in light rain or when using washer fluid, and they were able to keep up with a full-on heavy rain, which some wipers do not seem to be able to do.  The drivers side wiper on my car covers more than 50% of the wipered area and the windshield is at relatively low angle which causes many wipers to lift or lose contact at highway speeds. This wiper works as good or better than any standard type wiper I have used.  Installation was a snap, just following the directions/diagrams on the back of the package.  I do not live in an area with snow or ice, so I cannot on this wiper in "winter" conditions. The wear indicator is a nice feature, and I am curious to see if it will accurately indicate that a change is necessary when the time comes.
I have been using a jointless wiper blade ever since it became a popular replacement for the factory jointed type that is usually pre-installed when you buy a new vehicle. The ACDelco 24ACD Clear Vision Wiper Blade with Wear Indicator fits the bill when you need to replace or just want to upgrade to a better performing wiper blade. There was no rain yet in my little corner of the country when I got this wiper so to be able to give a comprehensive review, I have to "simulate" rain-like conditions by turning a hose with a shower nozzle on the windshield in the driveway of my garage. Snow on the other hand is a different story, no way for me to simulate that kind of weather event. It also worked well with frost accumulation on the windshield. It wiped away the frost smoothly, with no kind of hesitation or drag while in the wiping motion.My thoughts:Performance: the jointless type ACDelco 24ACD Clear Vision Wiper Blade with Wear Indicator is contoured better to "hug" your windshield with minimal resistance and pressure points. This translates to better wiping ability thereby enabling you to see better in inclement weather. Since it is jointless, this type of wiper gives you uniform wiping pressure, eliminating the pressure points or the "streaks" that you see across your windshield as it moves across the windshield. The curvature of this wiper is aerodynamic, it will prevent a lift-off of the blade even in high winds.Installation: it took less than 10 minutes to install the ACDelco 24ACD Clear Vision Wiper Blade with Wear Indicator without using any of the adapters for the wiper arm of my vehicle.Very satisfied with how the ACDelco 24ACD Clear Vision Wiper Blade with Wear Indicator has performed. It is a bit on the pricey side compared to other jointless name-brand wiper but gives you an awesome wiping performance. Highly recommended!
I got the 21&#34; and 19&#34; ACDelco Clear Vision Wiper Blade for the front windshield of my 2002 Subaru Forester. The printed instructions showed how to remove and replace the wiper blades for five different attachment types. My car had the &#34;Hook Lock&#34; type of attachment to the wiper arms. If you're not real familiar with your wiper blade attachment details, I highly recommend watching the installation videos on the ACDelco website or on this page. If you're outside with your car, you can take your smartphone and scan a QR code in the instructions with an app like QR Droid. There are several attachment adapters included for the different types of attachments. For the Hook Lock type used on my car, there was an adapter to slip on before attaching the blades, but the video makes it clear how to proceed.As best I can remember, these are the first frameless wiper blades that I've had, so I'll be watching closely to see how they perform. Snow and ice aren't much of a factor here, but we get about 50 inches of rain a year, and the summer heat is fierce, with a lot of UV from the sun. The acid test for any windshield wiper blades is how well they're performing six months or a year down the road. Regarding the indicator that changes color to alert you to change the wiper blades, I'm a bit skeptical about that. I change wipers when they stop performing satisfactorily, and I'll have to see if that coincides with the indicator.My initial impression of the ACDelco blades is very favorable, but I plan to update my review in a few months after seeing how well the wiper blades are performing then.Note: On the new wiper blade is an adhesive tab that says &#34;REMOVE.&#34; It wasn't obvious why, but I think that it was covering a piece that will change color when exposed to a certain amount of UV radiation, thus signaling that it's time to change the wiper.
The wiper comes with several adapters, and you have to choose the one that's right for your car. Unfortunately for me, the one that's right for my car is HUGE... and very distracting.I noticed it right away, as soon as I sat in the driver's seat. It actually impinged on my vision just a little on the bottom of the windshield-- it had a higher profile than my other wiper (which I left on the passenger side for comparison purposes), and it was just distracting because of its bulbous shape. When I turned on the wipers, I actually felt like it was dangerous, because it was such a focal point that my eyes kept going to the adapter while I was driving in the rain... every time the wiper went by, I couldn't help but notice it again. Like a giant black bug or something-- you just can't NOT notice it. I hoped it would get more invisible to me as I got used to it and continued driving (it was a long drive home), but that didn't happen.It makes very good contact with the windshield and worked well, with no missed spots on the windshield. I'm guessing that if you needed any other adapter than the one I needed, you'd probably be fine-- but the one I needed just made it too much of an eyesore.I had already thrown out the old wiper, so I'm out of luck and need to buy another one now.
These wiper blades work fine. That said, so do all other new wiper blades I've ever purchased. They don't feel like they're built of adamantium, or made of magical unicorn rubber, so I don't see why they're so expensive. The adapters they come with work fine, but they do stick out in a rather bulky way, as has been pointed out in other reviews. I'm sure that's dropped my gas mileage a non-noticeable amount. They do come with a magical color-changing "time to replace" indicator, but it's usually not hard to figure out when wiper blades need replacing: they stop working well.Anyway, they're fine, but for the money, I'd just stick with the ANCO cheapies. All blades work great when new, but need to be replaced regularly. I haven't yet seen a pair that are worth three times the cost of the generics.
The wiper blades work well so far (of course, they always do when they're new) and make good contact with the glass along the whole length of the blade, although  I think the "1,500 pressure points" is just marketing hyperbole.  I like the versatility of working with different styles of wipers but installation wasn't entirely simple.  I have the hook style wipers and the diagrams inside were tiny and not very clear.  You have to snap on a different adapter depending on the style and it makes for a rather large knob at the connection point - bigger even than theBoschblades (although the blades themselves are thinner).  Even then it popped off easily when I bumped it while scraping frost from the windows - never had that happen with other blades.  And frankly, they're just kinda ugly and look big and clumsy.  I'm also not too keen on the "wear indicator" as it seems "gimicky" and I have no idea how it works.  It seems I ought to be able to see when the performance deteriorates but this way it'll probably just have a big yellow dot in front of me whether I want to replace them or not (we don't get a lot of rain here in SoCal).
The ACDelco wiper blade was easy enough to snap into the wiper holder of my car, clinging nicely to the glass without warping or riding up on the ends. In other words, it clings tightly.I usually use Rain-Ex on my windshield, since I live in the southwestern United States, and it doesn't rain frequently. That said, when it does rain, we can get a deluge. I found the blade held its own in a recent torrent. It also worked while driving through snow in the high country, although I think the blade works more seamlessly in rainy situations.The color changing feature on the rubber blade itself is a smart idea. I usually find myself using a wiper blade until the rubber is completely worn off, not thinking about changing it until the metal itself starts scraping down my windshield. This should help remind me to stay on top of my car maintenance duties every time I clean off the windshield.Recommended as a nice, precision wiper blade with a helpful reminder feature.
TheACDelco 26ACD Clear Vision Wiper Blade with Wear Indicator - 26" (Pack of 1)was not difficult to install because I am familiar with blade installation.  If you need instructions, this is not best wiper blade.  Arriving with several adaptors, none were needed, but were stored until this blade is replaced later this year.  As for the wear indicator, I cannot comment because it's a new blade and from what I understand, a new product to ACDelco.  It does clear the windshield as required, but isn't the most sleek in style.  It's price point is higher than many and I suspect that's because of the wear indicator.  Since I change blades a maximum of annually, this is wasted on the car which wears the wiper.  Should you need a reminder, assuming that this really does give a visual clue, perhaps this is a great blade for your car.  For the price, it's not a bad blade, just not an outstanding blade.
The ACDelco Blade arrived just a few days ago and it was put to the tests in a few hours after installing it.  Installing it was not difficult but prepared to spend a few minutes if this is the first install.  Luckily, I did and all went better than expected.  The hardest job as usual for me at least was removing the old wiper.  Did it; put the new one on and enjoyed driving in the rain.  The ACDelco works like a charm.  Full, clean swipes with no rattling and no skips.  From one side of town to the other in the rain and not an issue whatsoever.  The real test came a few days ago.  The weatherman said we would get 4" of snow in the next several hours and sure enough we got about 6" and it was heavy.  So what!  I have an ACDelco on my side and am not concerned.  I hit the road with a full blast of wet, heavy snow falling and not a concern again.  That blade did so much better than the other non-ACDelco blade and made my side clean while the other side had a few artifacts leftover.  I did not think a new blade could be so effective; however, this one was and I expect it to continue for quite a while.  If not, I'll be back for a re-review.
This was easily installed on my Honda Pilot.  I have had these one piece wipers before and they do a very good job of clearing the windshield without leaving streaks.  They lack the aerodynamic foil that keeps them from flapping around at very high speeds, but these are on my Honda Pilot, so I'm not going 120 MPH anyway.  There were many installation options, but once I figured out the correct piece to use for my car, they clicked on easily.The wear indicator is an interesting feature, that I assume will become ugly and probably have nothing to do with how the rubber is holding up.  I tend to replace my wipers when they stop doing a good job.  I guess the "wear indicator" just reacts to the accumulation of UV light and/or water.
These are very easy to install.  They've been through rain, snow & sleet so far & have performed perfectly.  The "wear indicator" is a gimmick, in my opinion because I think it's pretty easy to tell when your wipers need changing; I don't need a yellow dot to know that I have streaks in my vision zone.
I have been using this 22" ACDelco Clear Vision Wiper Blade for several weeks on the driver's side of my 2007 Hyundai Accent GS. I have to say I'm not really impressed.Fit and mounting are okay though the so-called instructions printed on the back of the label insert are almost impossibly to see and are somewhat vague. The J-Mount connector that my car requires sits rather high on the wiper arm. MUCH higher than the Bosch 22" Clear Advantage wiper blade I had been using. It's mildly distracting and somewhat unattractive.The important part - Function. In mild to moderate rain the Clear Vision wiper blade does a good job of clearing the windshield. It seemed to struggle a little during a brief heavy downpour. But the worst part is how these work in light mist and fog. The wiper blade leaves what can only be described as a film on the windshield. It's not highly visible all the time but catch the sunlight at the right angle and it becomes rather difficult to see out the windshield. I've tried cleaning the blade twice with isopropyl alcohol and a microfiber cloth but it still films/streaks the entire windshield in mist and fog. Heavy use of washer fluid will clear the streaking/filming but that's just wasting washer fluid.I'll probably leave these on the car for now since it's the dry season but once it starts raining every day when summer gets here I'm going back to the Bosch blade.I really can't recommend these wiper blades.
Upon first opening the AC Delco wiper blade I was a bit daunted.  There was a wiper blade along with 4 plastic fittings and no paper instructions.  There were printed pictures on the package wrapper but they were too small and too dark to be of use.  Fortunately, I was familiar with the style of the wiper arms on my truck (Ford F150) and it was not too difficult to pick out the snap on piece needed to connect the blade.  A little more close inspection and I was able to see how the piece slipped in and snapped to the blade.Because I really don't see the use of a wear indicator (just replace the wiper when it doesn't work well any more - not when a dot changes color) and the instructions are non-existent in the packaging, I think this is a 4 star product.  Yes, I know Amazon has a video on how to use the blade - but it is pretty inconvenient to stop and watch a video on installation.  Otherwise, the blade works well and makes good contact with the window.  It is replacing a similar style blade I bought at the local big box store for a little cheaper.
I like the way ACDelco has provided all the various connectors for attaching the wiper. This makes the blades virtually generic. Great idea. Also the color coding to tell you when to replace is a nice touch. I particularly like the 16" wiper as it fits my rear window. For some reason the rear window blades don't last as long as the front ones on my vehicle.
I received one 22"ACDelco 22ACD Clear Vision Wiper Blade with Wear Indicator - 22" (Pack of 1)and installed this on the driver-side of the windshield of my 1998 Ford Expedition Eddie Bauer SUV.  This was one of my very first attempts to install a replacement blade and I found it rather easy to do.One of the challenges living near the ocean is dirt and grime from salt and sand. The wiper has done a great job so far in cleaning the mess without leaving streaks.We've had quite a bit of nasty weather this month and the wiper covers the entire area without any skips, streaks or squeaking.I will order another for the passenger side as well.  I also appreciate the wear indicator as a gentle reminder to replace these, occasionally.
I got this for use on my husband's F-150.  He says it works as well as any other blade he's had on his truck.  Where this really shines? It has a Wear Indicator that tells us when it needs to be replaced.I'll come back in a few months to say if it's lasting as long (or longer) than other wiper blades.
The ACDelco Clear Vision Wiper Blade with Wear indicator comes with five adaptors and is fairly easy to install. It does a good job in the rain and with light snow without too much streaking or squeaking.I'm not sure how useful the wear indicator will actually be--it's usually very obvious when the wiper blades need replacing. I have had toothbrushes with a similar feature where a stripe of colored bristles had the color fade away and found that they signaled for replacement prematurely, when the bristles were still in excellent condition.
This ACDelco blade has proven itself in some pretty tough mountain and high plains driving where we frequently encounter rain, then snow, and then sleet and ice all within the span of an hour as elevation changes.  This blade kept up with every element with no problem.  I use a deicing windshield wiper fluid; so that along with this blade kept our windshield more clear than our OEM Toyota blades.  Very easy to install.  Highly recommended.
These wipers require replacing the entire wiper component, not just the plastic part. So the first difficulty I ran into was figuring out how to get the original ones off, as this isn't even in my car manual. Had to google it to find out how to do it. Then to put the blades on, you have to figure out which adapter to use and how to snap it into place. The directions for this are ridiculously small and impossible to decipher, so it's pretty much a trial and error thing. Once I got it snapped on, I was able to put the blade on, and it seemed to work reasonably well enough for a couple weeks. That was, until I was driving in a slight drizzle, turned on my wipers, and I guess the window had some dry spots that caused the blade to stick a little bit and the connector just snapped off, sending the entire blade flying through the air. Thankfully it didn't hit anyone, or another car, or I could have had some real damages to pay. Luckily I saved the original wipers which went back on the car ASAP. These went into the garbage. I will note that my wipers use the J-style connector, and another reviewer mentioned a similar issue with their car and the same style connector, so it may be a particular issue with this one. However, I am just not sure I would trust these wipers and these connectors that aren't permanently attached to the wiper and prone to just snapping apart.
Until I started to take advantage of the opportunity to test different wiper blades, my general tendency had been to replace the blades when the metal frames began to etch the windshield. Since this set is designed without metal brackets that won't work so I suppose I will have to remove the little yellow tab and wait to see how long it takes the indicator to change colors from black to yellow.  I have customarily lived in areas with a considerable amount of all forms of precipitation but I also have never believed the wiper was a substitute for an ice scraper or the defroster so I don't place inordinate demands on the rubber filaments either.With the exception of the wear indicator, The Delco blades don't appear substantially different than the Bosch Icon blades they are replacing or the Rainx Latitude blades the Bosch blades replaced last year, all of which are on a shelf in the garage since they weren't worn out and I can't seem to force myself to throw out anything with some life left in it, so the inexpensive but utilitarian ANCO bracketed blades that started this process are there as well.All of replacement bracketless blades have left the same minor streaking on the driver's side ever since my wiper motor died and I believe I may have bent the arm out of position when the blade got tangled with the passenger side blade.The wiper blade comes with four adapters to accommodate most wiper attachment configurations. Since all of my current cars employ the hook lock system, installation of the blade is basically error proof as long as the correct adapter is selected and not inserted upside down which is pretty easy to determine considering there Is a yellow tab on the topside side.  For those who still feel uncomfortable, ACDelco has videos on their site as well as here that can lead the timid through the process step by step.
I put a set of these - this and a 24"er on a Corolla S.  I had begun to think there was something wrong with the windshield or the arm of that car since I've had three different sets of blades (including OEM) on that car, and none of them have worked right, even brand new.  These have laid that theory to rest, and I'll be going right to these next time I need blades for that car.I had noticed before I put them on that they are built very similarly to the new Bosch blades I recently put on my other car, but these have four extra pieces for different mounting methods - an all-in-one solution.  They also have a "wear indicator" that I find kind of goofy.  I suppose after a while I'll have an annoying white spot on the blades before I'm ready to change them (and I really don't like to have everything pushing me to buy more stuff unnecessarily).  Anyway, I'll forgive them for that little trend that hopefully won't last.
The last time I had my wiper blades replaced they were changed at the dealer (big mistake). I'm not sure of the brand but they were problematic after just weeks it seemed.The Delco blades were super easy to install myself (I'm not good at things like this either).  The end result is streak-free windows and noise free wiper blades. I'm not sure how long these wipers will last, but based on initial impressions I am very pleased.[ the packaging was super easy to undo without ripping up your hands with the tough plastic casings found in many products like these - that alone was a treat.]Highly Recommended.
These ACDelco wiper blades ship with multiple adapters so they will fit a variety of vehicles. The installation directions cryptic and virtually useless.  I wish I'd noticed the videos provided on the product page before I did my install.The adapters are bulky in size and are noticeably distracting in your field of vision when you're driving.  Furthermore, both the adapters and the blades are made of plastic similar to what you'd expect from a Chinese made dollar store toy.  The blades feel super flimsy and do not even have the strength to hold the wiper against the curve of the windshield from end to end.  The actual rubber wiper does a decent job, where it touches the glass.These blades come equipped with a wear indicator that is supposed to let you know when it is time to replace the blade.  I do not have any expectation that the blade will actually last long enough for that indicator to be needed.*This review applies to both of the two different lengths of blades I tested*
At first I thought it would be a struggle to open the package like some other bubble packs, but if you look on top on the upper right, it says "abrir, open, ouvrir". Pry it there and it will open easily.There are three attachments, so whatever kind you have on your wiper it most likely that will fit with one of them. Mine is a Honda Accord 2001 and it is just a hook. Anyway, you should make sure this wiper is the one for your car. There is an online guide that is very easy to navigate to find your car making sure this wiper blade will fit.I have been using this for weeks and it works great. No streaks and seems to work effortlessly. It is not that sleek looking, but other than that, there is nothing to complain. Priced very reasonably.
These ACDelco Clear Vision blades are certainly premium quality, and they work great on our 2000 Dodge Caravan. I was able to install them with no problems in less than a minute, and so far they are holding up nicely to our harsh winter. The wipe is smooth and flawless with no streaking or stuttering. We've had them installed for a couple of weeks now and we love them, hopefully they'll stand the test of time and continue with the top notch performance. So far so good, and I'd definitely consider them in the future.
What can one say about a windshield wiper blade? It's easy to attach and includes a plethora of connection types, so unless you have a Model T, this should attach to your arms (well, your car's wiper arms) correctly. The wear indicator seems more of a gimmick. Who actually replaces blades when they wear? It's when they get damaged, or leave behind an annoying streak at eye-level that won't go away.  Or when the window is getting scratched by the metal arm.... So when installed, new, they do what all other blades I have ever used do - they leave the window streak free and dry. Time will tell if they last better, handle snow (we have a skiers nightmare of snow in the midwest right now - AKA - none) or ice. But right now I'm happy.  I give it 4 instead of 5 stars due to the high price and gimmicky wear indicator.
AC Delco 24ACD Clear Vision Wiper Blades do everything you'd expect them to. They wipe away the water from a windshield smoothly without stuttering and jumping. There is no streaking, squeaking, or chattering. The newfangled I-Beam type of spring helps give the wiper blade an even pressure across the entire surface of the windshield. The design also seems to help prevent lift-off at highway speeds, keeping them working great matter what vehicle speed. Overall a very good design that seems to hold up the AC Delco name.
These wiper blades are the flexible, non-metal frame style which I prefer. They have a wear indicator on each blade which is unique. It's a small spot on the blade which changes from black to yellow when it's time for new blades. (Be certain to remove the protective sticker from the wear indicator when you install the blade.)Each blade comes packaged with several adapters for use with different style wiper arms. The videos on this product page are EXCELLENT! Watch the one for your style wiper arm and you'll have no problem installing this blade.Note: Because many cars require two different size blades for the windshield, the blades are sold individually. Use the Amazon Parts Finder tool at the top of the product page to make sure you order the right size blades for your particular car.I used a water hose to test the blades when I initially installed them and they worked perfectly - no areas where the blades failed to make contact with the windshield. Luckily, last weekend we had some heavy rain and I was able to put them to the test. Again, they performed beautifully.Windshield wipers aren't especially exciting or interesting until they fail in a rain or snow storm. If you can't remember when you changed your blades last, it's probably time to do it. These blades would be a good choice.
These wiper blades were super easy to install.  It took only a couple minutes if that.They works pretty well too.  They seem to be a pretty nice quality.  I've been using them for a few weeks now and haven't had any problems with streaking or anything else.I think it's really neat that there's a built in indicator that will turn yellow and let you know when your blades need replaced.  I haven't seen this feature in any other blades out there.  Hopefully it's accurate.I think these wiper blades are pretty good and I would recommend them.
The best thing about the ACDelco Clear Vision Wiper Blade is the way it works, no spots, no streaks, just a perfectly clear windshield. I got one to replace a wiper, and it works so well I'm getting one for the other side. Another great feature of this wiper is it comes with adaptors to fit all wiper arms. I don't know if the wiper arms on my car are hook lock, side lock, pin lock or whatever. But with the ACDelco Clear Vision Wiper Blade I don't need to know, because whatever it is the adaptor to fit my car comes with it. Simple. Also these blades come with a wear indicator to let me know when they need to be replaced, and since I never change my wiper blades until it's long over due, I'm anxious to see how that works. All and all a great wiper.
This blade was easy to install. Although the number of adapters and having to choose and connect them seemed an extra step that I've never had to do with other wipers. These ride higher when at rest than other wipers I have used and that is an irritation. There are no skips or streaks when I have used them in rain, sleet and frost covered windscreens. They do work quietly.They have a built in indicator that tells you when the wiper needs replacing. It will be interesting, because in most products that have this type of device- it seems to tell you to replace it much sooner than you normally would. However, you could use it as an indicator to buy new blades and have them on hand.
Summary - nice blades with adapters for all types of attachments.  Indicator sticker changes color to remind you to change your blades.  Design is good for winter - won't freeze.I recently replaced the wipers for my mothers car and got the wrong kind of attachment - kind of annoying since it was a case of someone opening the package and putting the wrong one back in.Anyways, that can't happen with these - they include 4 adapters so all major attachment types are covered. This does mean  you have to do a minor bit of final assembly, but if you were going to replace your wipers to begin with, this shouldn't be a problem.There's a "Wear Indicator" which is in fact nothing more than a sticker which will eventually change color as it ages.  You peel the cover and I assume it changes color over time as it is exposed to the air.  One issue is that this type of chemical change is very temperature dependent.  You could be in a mild climate and not use your wipers and have them change sooner than someone who uses them all the time, but lives in a colder climate.Anyways, enough nitpicking about the sticker.  This is a similar design to the Bosch Icon.  -rather than having a thin spring with lots of articulating little arms, this wiper blade is basically 2 honkin big spring bands connected to the bracket.  This means that you can't get ice buildup between the arms and have the blade freeze up.  If you don't know what I'm talking about, you're lucky enough to live in one of the warm states.TIP - when your blade starts to streak, you can typically get another few months of good performance by cleaning the blade with a rag and some rubbing alcohol.Overall, very good blade, I'd pretty much disregard the "wear indicator" though
While this does a fine job of clearing your windshield, sometimes it'll lift a tad bit and keep streaks on your windshield. Save yourself the frustration and just get the one with the brace on the back instead.
I replaced the reverse bulbs I had in there previously with these and out simply these are 10 times bighter. I thought the ones i had were bright but you can bare even look at these without even seeing spots in your eyes. If people cant see me backing up they are blind or just dumb. Cree bulbs Ive used in the past in other applications and they simply just last. Cree bulbs don't flicker. Excellent buy.
Holycow Bright and I'm very Happy with my Purchase. They arrived faster then I thought. I read somewhere that the bulbs are heavy which they are and tend to fall out of socket, well I didnt have any issues like that. I'm guessing that person had a weak socket that shouldve been replace. I'm excited How Bright they are and wish this company had 1156 too. I recently bought 15W Reverse kit which is Garbage and good thing I bought 2 kits cause something keeps blowing out 1 or the other sides, Anyway the bulbs are BRIGHT. My Con is the price at 21.99 and 6.99 to ship. ok I can understand 15 with Free shipping  but not what I payed. I just purchased a pair of the same type LEDs in 1156 and are super Bright too and I payed 15 free ship so This place could do the same.
Well, they do plug right in (mind the polarity of course).  Whether they're brighter than the stock bulbs, I'm still undecided.  In a dimly lit area, backing up still seemed like it was dim back there, but it's hard to tell when it's still somewhat bright from other lights.I haven't yet reversed in a totally dark area which is where I do run into issues with my stock bulbs.When installing, I checked it out with one new and one old... these new ones do *seem* brighter but my initial test just didn't convince me one way or another.  I'll update my rating from 3 stars when I have a bit more to go by... I'd like to get more and replace the cargo lights on my truck because on occasion I turn those on too for extra reverse lights, but I'll have to know before I order more.Incidentally, mine shipped all the way direct from China.  They arrived okay, but know it'll take a while for them to arrive and you won't have tracking via China Post.  They just showed up one day, but it was probably only 2 weeks total.
I've tried a variety of these (12 v LED lights) and so far, for my purposes (RV use), these are far and away the most effective I've found (so far?...).  They're certainly not the least expensive, but they work the best.  I think they're brighter than the incandescent lights I replaced and use substantially less power, which is most helpful when camping without a power connection, which I do regularly.
PRO:-Modules are /extremely/ bright.  I always test LEDs using a 12VDC source before installation, and these ones quite literally stunned me for a moment.  It was brighter than the brightest camera flash I've ever seen (I admit I was only a foot away or so, but still).-Heat sink looks solid.-Mounts perfectly in place of incandescent 921 bulbs.  Brighter than them by a considerable margin.-Works with (my) stock reflectors.  Results may vary depending on your car's reflector design.-Extremely easy to install.  Just pull out the old ones and toss in the new ones.  If they don't light up, flip them around the other way and try again.  Basically idiot-proof.  No documentation required.CON-Pricey.  Other similar modules cost $20, but may not be as superbly bright as these are.-Heavy.  They weigh considerably more than the incandescent 921 bulbs, so if your car is subject to a lot of vibration (Rallycross, track days, really terrible potholes), they might flop around a bit in the socket.  Let's hope not.These LED modules are fantastic and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to any Veloster owner.  I'm sure they'll work great for many other vehicles as well.
I installed this panel under the cover of my vehicles dome light. Though this item is obviously made in China, it is still working several months after purchase and is very bright.
I ordered this for my buddy for his Silverado extended cab truck.  It really lights up the inside of his truck.  It is very bright.  I will be ordering one for myself.
This panel is very bright. The white is not as easy on the eyes as the incadesent bulbs but if you take into consideration the brightness, electrical resistance savings and the fact thant you will be able to start your vehicle in the cold morning even if you left your door slightly adjar then it is worth it.
this is the brightest panel I bought yet. Bright white w/ very little blue. Very happy w/ this and will buy another
These things are bright. I bought three of em and they light up the night in my truck cab. The sticky side doesn't work on all materials but thats an easy fix
Nice replacement for the trunk light. Provides more light but uses less energy. The double sided tape makes installation a breeze.
I used these to replace the 1156 bulbs in my RV. They don't come with 1156 adapters but they probably should. If they had them I wouldn't have used them because the adapter wire would obstruct the light. I cut off the connector wire from the supplied adapters and attached it using T tap connectors behind light reflector. It took some time but worked out nice. The flat LED projects light a lot better than a round bulb that is sending light in the wrong direction.The color of the light is perfect. It made the previous LEDs look dingy.A few of the LED boards had the positive and negative wire colors backwards. So I had to connect red to black and black to red. I verified that the wiring in my RV was correct using a volt meter.The adhesive gave out on one of the lights within a day. I believe it was because I didn't have it pressed down onto the slightly curved surface well enough. When I was putting it back in place I did it with the light on, bad idea. The ground from the 1156 socket made contact with the metal on the circuit board next to the LEDs and it burnt out each one that it touched.These use .3 amps at 12.5 volts which is about 4 watts.It would be nice if they made a plastic reflector(like a flashlight) that would fit onto the board and focus the light from the LEDs into a smaller spot.These are shipped from China and take about 2 weeks to receive.
Replacing my OEM dome light bulb with this 48 LED festoon was a snap. In and out in less than 30 seconds. Now I have brilliant white light in my cab, and plenty of it. The process could not be easier. Awesomeness.
I use these in my RV Trailer and these things are bright. They do ship from China so be prepared to wait for a little bit (1-2 weeks) But for the price I could not complain too much. Smaller ones than these run $18-$25 at auto zone for ONE! Color temp is definitely in the 6000k-7000k range so they do have a blueish tint to them so be aware of that. Overall still a great deal.
These are very very bright. I mounted these under my hood and they illuminate the entire engine compartment as well as the surrounding area... Makes working on my truck at night very easy and they don't drain the batter at all.
After having poor experiences with various other LED lights which were too blue and/or too dim to adequately replace the filament bulbs in my motorhome's overhead fixtures, I ordered just one of these light panels to evaluate.  Much to my surprise and delight this assembly of LEDs was as bright, as measured by my Gossen Luna-Pro light meter, as the 12V flat-based filament bulb that it replaced.  The color of the light from these LEDs is very close to daylight white but not blue like other LEDs that I've tested nor orange like the light from the factory-installed filament bulbs.Each of my Itasca motorhome's overhead ceiling light fixtures contains two flat-based bulb sockets.  There is adequate space within the fixture to install two of these panels with adapter, behind the fixture's diffuser.  The LED panel consumes considerably less power than the filament bulb it replaced and emits less heat, but it still gets warm.  I've ordered additional light panels from another Amazon vendor that sells them for less, and I plan to use them to replace most of the filament bulbs in my fixtures.Short term, my experience with this light panel has been very positive.  If my long-term experience after installing them in multiple fixtures is any different, I'll come back and revise this review.
This is a very nice kit, but unfortunately i bought the wrong one. Looking forward to doing a full swap
The led dome light works great and really lights up my vehicle, I have a Chevy Malibu 2001.  It is also nice knowing that it is not using as much power as a regular bulb, so there is a less chance of it draining your battery if it was accidentally left on. It does auto dim when the lights are turning off like my regular bulbs did, which I like.  I would definitely recommend these to anyone wanting a white/blue color lighting and not the regular yellowish color dome lights.
These little pads are bright white and give off a great amount of light. I have one light in my travel trailer that uses 3 of these and they are very nice and give off a real nice amount of light at a very favorable hue.
I am pretty disappointed in these panels. The light output isn't as high as some of the other panels I have used including those with fewer individual LED's. Because of this I have not put these into service. I will probably find a use for them some day... Beyond the low output there aren't any build defects, they seem to be sturdily built and the adapters are on par with other LED products I have purchased.
I have replaced every interior light on my RV trailer.  These are most efficient at saving power, so I replaced every interior area light bulb on my trailer with them.  Additionally, these things last nearly forever, so when you replace that burned out bulb, that will be the last time you'll have to do it.
10 cubic feet is a nice size.  It is about half the volume of the average refrigerator.  Much bigger and it becomes cumbersome to manhandle.  Canvass is good; it breathes while being water resistant. You may even take it to your dry cleaners after a few years, not just for cleaning but to renew the waterproofing the same way you do on the more expensive cloth rain coats. Canvass is strong and durable; the build quality here is careful.8 buckle straps means two important things.  You have enough flexibility to adapt to most vehicles.  You have sufficient redundancy against one or two strap failures.  Unlikely that any will fail, but I like failsafe features.  I know there are fancier fasteners, but buckles are strong and they actually work.It is always best practice to balance your vehicle's load, whether on the roof or in the trunk.  This bag balances easily.  Just face the zipper to the back, out of the wind.  Zippers seldom pry open from wind, but sometimes we, or one of us, can be less than careful.  Soft bags are flexible for many shapes.  It is just over a foot high, laying flat, but you can fit bigger things which might be excluded by a hard case.You can leave the interior of your vehicle alone.  No rummaging at the motel, only to repack the next morning when you are anxious to get going.  This bag cleans easily, spilled either on or in.  Throw away the shipping box because it has a handy storage bag for your closet.  Always store it clean and dry.  Hi-Ho Heinenger -- away!
I was hoping that the outside of this bag would have been of a smoother plastic/pvc like material that would allow for wiping of bugs off at least the front of the bag after a long trip. That is not the case at all with this bag. Instead you have to get out a soft brush and sit there and work with some cleaners and rinse it gently to make sure the water proofing is maintained.Overall it's a nice roof top cargo bag but the lack of ability to easily clean off bugs is rather annoying and disgusting at the same time. I live in a state that has a high insect population during the summer and if you mess up and drive at dawn or dusk with this on top of the car or van you end up with a massive amount of bugs coating it. I was able to use a friends luggage wind deflector to reduce the amount of bugs on the bag but better construction of the bag would have not needed this.Also the underside of the bag is like the rest of the bag, rough fabric that I didn't want laying against the paint on the roof of my car. I had a sheet of tacky rubber that I put against the top of the car that I just peeled off after my weekend trip with everyone, that worked great to protect my paint.Overall, I'm disappointed in some of the aspects of this product but I do realize that most people aren't as particular about certain things like I am so I adjusted my review score accordingly.
This is a great choice if you have a smaller vehicle, tight budget, and lack of space for a hardshell box.  The bag is very well made and the installation is easy.But you have to keep in mind that this is water resistant, not waterproof.  Amazon carries a one not that much more expensive than this one and it is supposedly a lot better in wet weather.In reality, the best option for your roof is a box from Thule, Yakima, or Sears.  I would pony up for one, but my issue is storing it when not in use.So, I will use this bag, but anything that I don't want wet will have to go in a dry bag before gong in this bag.
This isn't built for daily use for long periods.  I can see getting twenty or so good uses out of it.  For someone like me, that is more than enough.This is a relatively well constructed bag that you could practically fit a body in...not that I recommend that.  It is very roomy and worked perfectly on my FJ Cruiser luggage rack.  I also can see using it in the back of the truck just to carry things.  It is large, but no so ginormous that I can't handle it.The fasteners worked well and the bag held up great to an eight hour road trip.
This rooftop carrier is made from the same weight material as most luggage, it zips closed with a sturdy zipper and has a covering over the zipper to protect the contents from the weather. The carrier has two heavy adjustable straps per side, my small SUV only has front to back side rails and the carrier straps held two suitcases down well, although side to side bars would ensure an even better hold. Because you have to mount the straps over the carrier rather than under the carrier it isn't going to be as easy to open and close as a hard shell in the middle of your trip but because the straps compress the load it offers  a lower profile than a shell.
If you are in a pinch and need to take a few more items on your trip than your car can carry, this is not a bad choice. It's very sturdy and I never worried about my things falling out, but it's not aerodynamic - there was a noticeable decrease in our MPGs. THe straps were very versatile, so the bag could be used with any vehicle, but if you don't get them really tight the noise is loud and awful, if you do get them tight, the noise is still unpleasant albeit tolerable. It is water resistant and it did keep our stuff dry in a sprinkle - mostly, a little water had leaked in but not yet got to anything that mattered. It is nice that it folds up very small and is soft enough to be squished in a corner if needed.THis is a nice emergency bag, but I would prefer not to have to use it for long trips.
I'm sure they'd be fine for automotive lights. Fairly dim for an RV overhead lights though but not nearly as dim as the last set I tired. Off to try again.
It fit perfectly in my 03' Eclipse with the rear view mirror map lights! People always ask me how'd you get those lights to be so bright.
These bulbs are great. I'm using them in my 06' Ford F150 as map lights and they light up everything. They do have a blueish tint to them, so I would probably rate the color at about 6-6500K. But they are really bright.
These are about 10x brighter than my original parking lights (2006 subaru impreza). LOTS of light that needs little energy!
I have installed these on the backup light for my 2004 Honda (Acura) TL. Bright but do not cast light as well as the conventional incandescent bulbs; the biggest weakness of LEDs.
Have used these for about 4 months.  Bought two.  One of them has blown one strip of the LEDs on one side. Lights had about 150 hours on &#34;on time&#34;.  The bulb with bad LED strip is still usable but I expected it to last longer. I guess it is nice to know that each side of LEDs operate independent of the others, so you can loose some and the others will keep on working.
This is a very mild cleaner, with a great scent. If you have a heavily soiled interior you may need something with more cleaning power that has added protection, reach for Mother's VLR. Granted VLR doesn't have a nice scent to it, it does work extremely well and with &#34;condition&#34; your leather, vinyl, and rubber parts. This is a perfect product if you don't need the added conditioning.
This is a good one clean and protect and also smell good. You will not get the wet look if that is what you are looking for.
I use this to clean the inside of my Jeep and it smells great too! Works very well on the spills in the cup holders, surpised me what is could clean!
Ordered this a a comparison to Meg's interior cleaner/dressing.Wins over that in a few ways, in my opinion.-Leaves a completely satin finish-Does a good job at not attracting dust.-Little goes a long way. Usually apply few sprays to applicator pad and is enough to do the doors and 1 quarter of car. Like to split interiors into sections.-Smells good. Goes away fairly quickly, but that's okay, Dont like scents to linger too longHowever, I would be remiss if I did not post a few negatives:-Not as long-lasting-Spray nozzle has seized up and will not spray. Resolved by moving to  one of their pro bottles with a chemical resistant nozzle.Never had this issue with meg's bottle.
Does an excellent job on my interiors without leaving a slippery/greasy feel on surfaces like the steering wheel...The faint pineapple like scent is pretty good as well...Highly pleased with this product.
The summary about covers it.  This is really good stuff, and suitable for almost any interior surface of your car.  Smells great, and works well to remove residue left from hands/fingers.  (on screens, steering wheel,arm rests, etc.)  Leaves behind a nice clean surface.  Great product.
Unlike most interior detailers that just try to shine up dirt this actually cleans, leaves no oils and has a factory sheen to it.
cant really go wrong with Chemical Guys products. has a nice clean smell and does not streak or smear on dash,or hard plastic panels.
This stuff works great, it will remove black shoe marks off of beige interior kick panels and fingerprints off of wood trim in one swipe and it also does a great job dusting and cleaning all interior areas
I am impressed so far with this interior detailer spray. The only thing that I am not impressed with so far is the scent and how long it lasts. I'm not a fan of pina colada.
I'm not a fan of off the shelf interior cleaners that leave a glossy slick uneven coat on my interior.This product cleans and make the interior panels looking like new.  You can apply gels and gloss after, but I like my cars looking factory fresh. Works for me
I like this product, but I find myself comparing interior detailers to Meg's Quick Interior Detailer. I have used that for many years and thought maybe I would try something different. This products smells good and definitely leaves a matte finish. I found that it leaves behind a haze and needs to be buffed off (may well be because it was cold outside, but who knows), which is one extra step that I didn't want to have to take. Overall I think this is a good product, but for the price, there are much better alternatives, which might keep me from purchasing this again. I will stick to my Megs and keep my quick swipe of the interior in my detail routine, but give this 4 stars because it really isn't a bad product. Unfortunately just not the right price.
Dexron VI is the recommended transmission fluid for many late model GM transmissions and is value priced. Of course, check with the owners manual, service manual or dealer for your specific requirement and capacity prior to purchase.
Did a flush for my BMW 328i auto, 100k miles tune up.  Shifts butter smooth and feeling good knowing that my tranny is well protected.
I have a 2005 GMC Envoy XL whose automatic transmission was having issues. After much research online, I decided flushing it (I had about 50K miles since previous flush) would be the easiest potential solution.After getting two cases and flushing the AT, the issue was gone. Fixed. Done. I will be doing this every 40-50K miles from now on.
The Dexron in my '05 Northstar Cadillac STS looked like motor oil coming out, even though it's &#34;lifetime&#34; fluid.This should last longer, and I'll likely drain/fill every 30K miles.
Have used this product on older Dexron II GM cars and all responded very well to it; great for often neglected trans service.
I was personally quite disappointed with this oil.  After getting my new bike and filling it with the other Castrol 4T Mineral based 4-stroke motorcycle oil, it ran smooth and shifted with little effort.But this synthetic stuff is just terrible in comparison.  Hard shifts, missed shifts.Just not for my 1 cylinder push rod 4 stroke 250cc wet clutch.
Conventional motorcycle oil is suitable for normal use but for extended service intervals synthetic oil is a better choice. However, unless you are racing full synthetic isn't really necessary. Castrol Actevo Xtra part synthetic fits this application perfect at around 60% the cost of full synthetic. If you have anything with a wet-clutch and integral transmission, use an oil that's formulated specifically for the application. Using an automotive oil 10w40 and above (non energy conserving) won't damage the clutch, but it doesn't have friction modifiers for the clutch (extending the life) or anti-foaming additives for high rpm engines.  Do your bike a favor and use the right oil.
After 3 oil changes, things are looks MUCH cleaner with this oil. I am sticking with it for a good while over more spendy ones.
I use this oil in my 2006 Kawasaki Ninja 500R and 2006 Ducati Monster S2R1000. They both run great. I was gonna buy the Mobil 1 or the Motul oil, but this seems to be fine. I maintain the bikes well and change the oil regularly, so this oil suits me just fine.
Use this oil For my Brute Force 750 and it seems to love it better than Mobil 1.  I like Mobil1, don't get me wrong.  But this oil is better in a Kawasaki.  More guys and gals will tell ya, this stuff is just best in a Kaw.  Even in -3 the motor purred liked a kitten and ran like a top.  I swear by this oil and always have.  Put it in my 1500 classic too.  Never once had motor or clutch problems over the years.
I change the oil on my 2008 Kingpin myself, so I am always interested in seeing what else is out there. The price on this 6-pack was pretty cost-effective and cheaper than what I could find the 'official' Pure Victory kit. The shifting and overall feel of the bike after the oil change appears to be identical to the victory oil that was in there before - if not a little smoother. At the very least, it doesn't feel different in a bad way. So, I saved some money and the bike is, for me, riding the same. Win - win. :)
Castrol makes very good oil for all cars bikes trucks. You cant get better oil for the money way better then Mobile 1.Def recommend this oil brand
Used this oil on my Victory Vegas and So far I love it, three months later and still running smoother than whatever oil the dealership put on the previous oil change.
MUCH BETTER BUY THAN THE LOCAL MC DEALER!! I would like to give my local MC dealer some business, but the price is is 1/2 to 1/3 less for the same product. MC-specific oil is expensive due to it not having the slippery stuff in it due to a MC having a wet clutch.
I purchased this for my Victory Vision motorcycle and I'm very happy! I've always used victory brand oil since new. I wanted to try something else and was recommended this. I noticed my bike ran smoother and seemed to run a little cooler as well. I highly recommend!
Use in a 1300 VStar Motorcycle. No problems, no fuss.  Seems to keep the oil cooler but who knows for sure. It's good oil thats a given.
Paid about 45 bucks for the six-pack: that works out to $7.50 a quart -- hard to beat for 100% synthetic oil. I had some reservations about using this racing oil for my Suzuki m50 street cruiser but she's been running smooth and happy since I poured the Castrol in. The API &#34;SL&#34; rating might not be hi-tech enough for the very newest bikes, but it far exceeds the specs for my 2005 model. Get this stuff while its still around.
its great! my bike runs better then i thought it would. more smooth then ever before. i will buy again!
Castrol was always my #1 choice for oil in auto or bike, and since synthetic came along it's the only oil I use in either vehicle and have never had any issues or failures of my motors, even when 'beat' a bit.  Castrol's been around since long before my time, and I'm a senior citizen now, and it's kept cars on roads and in races, and planes in the sky for that long.
I used it on my 2000 Honda Shadow (it's a cruiser). No problems what so ever, I even felt an improvement on shifting from first try.
This is a great high quality motorcycle oil available at an excellent price from Amazon.  My bikes take 4 quarts each, and I have 3, so two cases is enough for oil changes for all of my bikes.  I find the price to be cheaper from Amazon than it is available by the quart from the large box store starting with a &#34;W&#34;  :-)
This is great product!  Just performed my first oil change after the 600 mile "break-in" period on my 2011 Hayabusa.  From the start, I noticed that my transmission shifts much more smoothly and seems to run cooler.I combined this oil with a K&N; oil and air filter change as well.
The price offered by Amazon is about 30% lower than I can find anywhere else.  I think this oil is every bit as good as Mobil 1 and is priced better.  My FJR seems to run and shift the same on either brand.
Natures Lube for everything.... and I mean everything ;)In this case for my Yamaha R6. Seems to work well. I mean I rode my bike today and it didn't die.Motor oil is motor oil. Just change it regularly and don't fret over which one is better.
extremely useful, especially if you have a travel trailer where the only means to clean the gray tank out is through the toilet.With this setup nothing gets dirty and all one needs to do is keep an eye on the water levels.
I used this to clean out my black water tank. Worked as described to fill the tank for flushing. I used this in conjunction with the sewer solution to flush the contents uphill to my sewer clean out.
I just went on our first trip in our new KZ Spree 195. I figured I'd do it right from the beginning and purchased this and a few other tools to properly handle the waste tanks. I filled the tanks a bit so they weren't used &#34;dry&#34; and we really only used the toilet a few times. I drained the tank once each evening and then refilled to about 1/3 full to keep fluid in the tank.When it was time to go, I drained the black tank, and watched the waste pass by in the clear elbow thinking that it looked about right, but I figured I'd try a back flush anyway. I was surprised to see that I got as much or more out after the first flush then simply draining it alone. Then again, I figured surely there couldn't be a need to flush a new tank twice, but I tried it anyway, and again was surprised to see more waste flush by. Then of course, I just had to see if a third time would net the same results, and I again saw more stuff fly by. My fourth flush on a new tank that was lightly used for two days finally came clear.I'm convinced and wouldn't think of owning a camper without this tool.
I have a Lance trailer.  As much as I love the trailer, the dump tube for both waste tanks is almost a level tube and needs some way to evacuate the tanks.  This flush valve appears to be the answer!  I haven't used it yet, but plan to use it this week when I prepare the trailer for the weekend.  Even though the black tank has a flusher, this will really ensure that the tank is empty.  It is NOT to be left on the dump tube - it should only be used and then removed to storage while traveling!
This thing works nicely. When that nice clear water runs from your tank through the clear plastic tube it's very nice to see that everything's nice and clean. This thing fit a little too closely to allow full movement of my blade valve handles so I combined with a Camco 39572 5&#34; Clear Sewer Hose Adapter which I just leave attached to the trailer dump outlet with a cover. If you don't have a sensor that you can see from the hydrant I also recommend using the RAINWAVE WATER TIMER .. SAVE WATER - FLOW METER in addition to measure the gallonage you are using on the backflush. Caution - don't lose the little rubber backflow preventer under the water valve.
Valterra is known for quality RV products and this is no exception. Flushes tank quickly, with high water flow and clear pipe shows when tank is clean. No more hoses through the window or cutting holes in in your tank for nozzles to flush your black water tank.
bought this after watching some videos online on black water tank cleanouts.  This fluch valve works exactly as expected and makes black water tank cleanup super easy.  Just shut in the dump vlave and fill and flush with fresh water.  Couldn't get any easier than that, and there is no mess of spraying water or anything of that nature.  I highly recomend this product.
I could never get my Camco performing as well as I'd hoped. Camco's weak point is the complicated and flow-restricting fresh water valve. This has a very simple water inlet that allows full flow from the hose to flush my tanks. And the Valterra valve is smooth as silk. I bought this from my favorite local RV shop for more than currently it costs at Amazon. Had Amazon had this current price way back when, I would opted for the Flush King over the Camco version.
I use it to tight all the suspension system of my Jeep Wrangler. I'm very satisfied with this impact wrench.
I am really impressed with this unit. Now it does not have brush cap/ access holes so when the brushes wear out I'll have to take it apart but WOW! For some reason I feel like rotating my tires. I can't wait to see how it does busting hub nuts and the nuts on harmonic balancers.The case is kind of cheapy but it does come with 4 impact sockets.I definitely recommend this affordable tool to any DIYer.
I wanted an ac powered impact wrench for small projects, however this one was bigger than I had expected. It comes with 4 or 5 impact nuts (hardened steel), for tightening and loosening bolts like bicycle wheel axis, scooter variator nuts, and larger car bolts (like wheels, engine mounts, etc). for the rest I can do little with it, as the tool is too big for the job I need it for, and I should have gone with a battery powered version instead.It rotates pretty fast, hammers the bolts pretty hard too!I would not do any bolt/nuts under an M16, or 11/16, because the device will overtighten them, and probably cause thread wear.But for big jobs, it's good enough.
This thing is so Bulky and Heavy and unbalanced.. I took it out of the box and put it back. This would be good for nothing more than taking off lug nuts once a year for a rotation. There are smaller, more powerful electric impact guns on the market that you can fit inside a wheel well let alone an engine compartment.
Im very disappointed in this wrench. The 12 volt wrench like this is better...go figure! I just performed a strut job on my toyota and it had troubles breaking the bolts off and the 12 volt could break em. Im glad i decided to purchase the 12 volt version of this as well. The clicking of the 12 volt drives me nuts but at least i know them bolts or nuts are coming off. I guess this wrench needs more power or sum thin. Im not sure it just doesn't work well. Ik already i will be using the cheaper impact as its more handy because of its compact size compared to this and it just works better. I guess i will just keep it for backup. Good luck on who else decides to purchase this. Maybe you will have better luck!
This device provides a significant bit of added safety in your car. In the very unlikely event where you have an accident that disables the doors and power windows, you can use this tool to break a side window. The built in spring hammer will break tempered glass. The windshield is laminated glass and the tool can not break that. If you can't escape because your seat belt is jammed, the built-in cutter will let you cut the belt so you can get out. These functions could save your life. I was unable to test either function since I don't want to break any of my car's windows or slice a seat belt.There is also a little LED flashlight and LED red blinker. The manufacturer claims these could be helpful in an emergency. The flashlight is not very bright, but could help you find your keys if you drop them. The flasher is also rather dim and I can't think of any situation where I would want it. There is also an audible alarm. This alarm is pretty loud and could scare off a potential assailant.You can get a visor clip for the tool that will put it in easy reach in an emergency. That is what I plan to do. All in all, this is a very helpful lifesaver for a reasonable price. I gave it four stars instead of five because it really is too big for me to use on my key chain.
The size is nice if you want it as a keychain.  Supposedly you can buy a visor clip, which I think would be more ideal if you have more than one driver per car.The seatbelt cutter looks strong and I didn't want to test the glass breaker, but it should work based on past experiences with said tool.I like the lights a lot.  The sound is loud, but probably not loud enough to really scare off a potential attacker or to alert others to your location.The batteries are easy to replace.All it all, it's priced right and hopefully you never need it.
The tool is light and not particularly impressive. The plastic seems flimsy.  There are seven features in this emergency tool.  The price seems high for the quality.Features:1) flashlight - very weak and I really don't know how effective it would be. If you could not get your key in the ignition, I suppose it would help in that instance.2) flasher - press the flashlight button twice and you get a red flasher. Again, very weak and I have no faith that it would be visible at any distance.3) sonic alarm -very loud and the button is NOT recessed so it would be easy to accidentally turn it on.  This might be handy but it is also easily squelched by covering the speaker hold in the back of this unit. You would have to have this tool on your person rather than stored in the car to use  this feature. If this is carried in a pocket, I can see you pocket screaming unintentionally at one point or another.4) seat belt cutter - I can't test it, but the cutter is nicely covered but it comes with a key fob and the fob attaches to the blade cover. I think it would pull out, it is not very secure. I did test it on paper and the cur was reluctant.5) glass breaker - can't test this one out but I have to say I am not impressed by the small button. I would prefer something more substantialI would like to give the product a fair review but I really cannot test the cutter or the glass breaker. Another reviewer felt it would break glass.  The batteries are button batteries which are a hassle, and expensive, and a AA would be so much easier.If  I was in the market for an emergency tool for my car, I would continue to look elsewhere.
I was a little disappointed to realize this device is made out of all plastic and feels a little less than sturdy.  It's also rather bulky and no way would I use it as a keychain.  The LED lights (white and red flashing) are bright enough to help out in a pinch.  The sonic alarm isn't extremely loud and would probably get somebody's attention.  The seatbelt cutter should work and although I hope to never have to use the punch glass tool, it is nice to have.  I just wish it felt a little more sturdy and was a bit more compact to really be used as a keychain.
This is one of those, "You just never know" type devices that gives your or your loved ones a little bit of peace of mind.  I rate it up there with smoke detectors and fire extinguishers.The main reason I give only 4 stars is because the LED flashlight is a poor design in that it is too easy to press and turn on by accident, in your pocket or perhaps a purse.Also, the size of this thing is really large that you wouldn't want to put your keys plus a 3" x 2" device in your pocket!  Better yet, take off the fuzzy dice and attach this thing to your rear view mirror!  Just yank on it to use it in an emergency!  (It's designed to slide out easily)This is 5-in-1 which includes a personal alarm, but that too, is a bit too easy to trigger, nor do I think effective versus yelling, which your basic instinct will make you do anyways.Overall, this is a good buy for peace of mind to hang on your rear view mirror for easy use when you may need it.
Swiss+Tech makes a lot of interesting products. I have quiet a few (kind of a gadget geek.) I just gave my wife their 7-in-1 tool - very similar to this one except it has a tire pressure gauge and the tread depth gauge. I actually like this one more and will keep it in my car because it has a smaller size but still has the basic emergency tools that seem like smart things to have at hand.In particular, I like having the glass smasher and seatbelt cutting tools. At race tracks, most SCCA corner workers carry a pocket knife and glass smashing tool in case they have to extract a driver stuck in a burning car. As a 25 year member of the SCCA, I have drunk the Kool-Aid and see the value of these two potentially valuable tools. I donate items to a corner worker awards fund and think I'll get a few of these to donate at the annual worker holiday party.The light, alarm and flasher are probably more useful in common real world situations (I can't tell you how many times a week I use a flashlight...) so these get high marks too.If I was still managing a small team of technical folks, this under $10 stocking stuffer would be their holiday gift from me.Recommended
great stuff!! ive had these before!! i cant promise anything but i use them also as caution flags for things sticking out of my truck!! they are larger then the 1' x 1' required by fl law
So, these are shop towels, not sure what else to say....they are the same red towels you can buy at any auto parts store.  They are meant for use in the shop (appropriate name right).  If you are not familiar with the use of a "shop towel" and intent these to be as soft as micro fiber or as thick as a beach towel, you will probably be disappointed.  They are throw-away shop towels at a cheaper price than you would find in an auto parts store.....level set expectations and you won't be disappointed.
Meets all my criteria for shop rags. Lots of them, and can wipe things up. Makes it a good deal in my opinion.
These are nice towels, not as heavy as I had hopped, but still nice and sturdy, I expect each one to last for a long time.
These are good disposable rags to use around the house, for your car, etc.They are quite thin so I would not plan on washing them to use multiple times. You could try using them and then washing them once or twice and re-using themn but be ware that the blue dye will get all over on other things you wash so I would recommend you wash them separately. You've been warned! I tried washing a few of them with some white rags and the white rags turned sky blue.I use these to wipe down my car motor, clean my wheels, things like that. It's nice to not have to mess up my nice microfiber towels that I uses for waxing my car.But when these get dirty, I just throw them away since it's more of a hassle to try to wash them than it's worth.
I don't really work on cars beyond the most basic, but find that an OBDII scanner is good when seeing that dreaded "Check Engine Light" (CEL) or, most important, buying a used car and want to find out what's going on with the engine.Last summer I almost pulled the trigger on a Mercedes SL500, beautiful car, but the CEL went on during the test drive.  "Must be the gas cap", said the seller.  I pulled out my cheap $20 OBDII and found lots of codes popping up, and after looking them up noticed wonderful issues like cylinder misfiring, ERG problems, O2 sensor problems, and more.  Good news was that apparently the gas cap was fine!The Innova 3130c is a lot more than $20, and finds a lot more.  I found it easy to use, and to have an extensive code database.Is it worth the money?  It depends.  Certainly if you are doing work on a car yourself, yes.  If you are buying a car, it is good to weed out the lemons (and costs less than a prepurchase inspection).  It's a good choice for the money, build quality is high, and Innova is solid in the OBDII reader field.
very good A++++++++++++++ the best one for Diagnose to your car
This is an easy to use device that comes in an attractive black carrying case.  It is simple to set up. Insert the included batteries and cable, affix to the car's DLC and you are good to go. While I did have to manually input the data on a 98 ford it did  the other vehicles automatically. I found the screen readable.  It correctly identified a coolant issue. I do wiSh the full manual was included but other than that this is a worthy, cost-saving scanner.
My primary beef with this product is lack of Mac support, plugging the device into my Mac's USB port results in nothing but a complaint about the disk being of unknown format. I have a Windows 7 virtual machine available, and I was able to mount the device there, download and install Innova's software and get a report for my car. The Windows software was clunky and required installing database DLLs I'd have rather not installed, but it seems to work OK. While I didn't have any error codes to look at for my 2003 Civic, the report the application generated helpfully pointed out I'm likely to need a new catalytic converter soon (based on my car's age and mileage).I'm not happy with the industry trend of having me provide my personal information in order to use a device. Certainly, Innova doesn't really need my phone number or address to activate their device. I am not looking forward to future mass mailing hitting my mailbox/recycle bin. I guess it could be worse, they could have Facebook integration...The hardware is adequate, and a good step up from my last code scanner, an Actron Pocketscan, who's small screen and cryptic onscreen display would lead me astray with my Civic. At least this Innova knows the idiosyncrasies of my particular make and model of car. I'm almost looking forward to my next check engine light. Almost.
As many other reviewers have reported this scanner is good for personal use. However there are cheaper less feature packed models that will accomplish the same goal such as theINNOVA 3040Setup was a bit of a pain. No Mac support at all (not surprised) so I had to use my shop PC instead.Installation and setup of the software was clunky but got through it just fine.The overall hardware is solid, no complaints. Very easy to read screen/menu even in fairly direct sunlight.One of the best features I thought was the live data review which you can record and playback.Since I don't have an entire fleet of vehicles to test/use this on, I'm sure this will more than serve its purpose for many check engine lights to come!
This is a great scanner.  It has a nice long cord and the screen is backlit.  It works quickly and has pretty easy to use interface.  It worked with basic functions on my 2004 BMW, but had much more expansive functions on my 2010 Honda.  The scanner produces codes with plain english explanations.  There is an online component through innova repair solutions.  You get a trial membership, but then it costs money to use that.  It works pretty well with live data response.There are more basic scanners out there that will eventually do most of the same things, but this is a very nice product for someone who will use it fairly frequently.By the way, mine came with a MicroSD card installed in the battery compartment.  It is very small - the size of a pinky nail.  I see from some other reviews, that some may have shipped without it.  Mine came with it.
I am not a sophisticated mechanic, but I am handy at fixing some things.  And one thing I have learned is to never take my car for service before first checking it with a scanner.  I have saved many hundreds of dollars getting fixit tips from the internet based on what my scanner told me.  And, by taking good care of my car and truck, I get lots of mileage from them - they are all at least 15 years old.My previous scanner was very basic and gave basic codes on two short lines of a very small display.  So this Innova scanner is a real treat to use.  And for all it does, it is really simple to use.  I have no DTC codes to read at the moment but connecting, scanning and navigating the menus was very simple.  I really like the system status indicator for emissions testing readiness.  The live data reading and capture is also easy to use.  I just hope it is a while before I need to use the fix assist feature.There are some things I didn't like about the scanner including the lengthy installation (complete with a reboot) on my Windows 7 laptop.  Also, the instructions that come with the scanner also do not mention how to install the software - there is no included disc.  One line directing to plug the scanner into the PC and letting the PC detect it would have been helpful.  I also had to enter my 1996 Ford and my 1998 Chrysler info manually (perhaps they were too old to auto detect?).  Finally, this model does not come with the ABS and airbag coverage for either of the autos I tested.  For the price, I think they should have included that option.
First of all, for a mechanic that has a small shop or someone that does repair on the weekend for money, this is a nice tool. However, for the average "joe" or "jane" that tinkers with their car, there are better options out there.The thing with these dedicated devices is more related to their competition with laptop based tools and either a usb or bluetooth enabled OBDII reader.many OBDII readers can be purchased on eBay or even amazon to use with a laptop. There are also bluetooth enabled OBDII devices that can link with your cell phone (android based) and can complete a large amount of diagnostic work. The best app that I have seen is TORQUE, see the google play store, Some examples Soliport ELM 327 Bluetooth OBDII OBD2 Diagnostic Scanner orSuper Mini ELM327 V1.5 OBD2 OBD-II Bluetooth CAN-BUS Auto Diagnostic Tool for Windows XP, Vista, Win7, OSX and Android,PLX Devices Kiwi Bluetooth Wireless Trip Computer and OBDII ScannerSo as an everyday alternative that is very robust, not quite as much as this one, but very good for most tasks, a combo android cell phone or laptop and a good obdii scanner can get you the same place with a little less $$.Finally, the device is pretty easy to use, but not very intuitive. You will need to read the manual.You also have additional add ons that you can purchase to enhance the ability of the scanner and the amount of information that can accessed based on vehicle manufacturer ....Overall this is a great tool for a power user or a mechanic. They also have cheaper alternatives that you can use if your level of expertise is not as high or needs are not as significant ...INNOVA 3100 CAN/OBDII Code Reader
I can only review this item as a regular scanner as the advanced portions of its programming are not available to my Subaru.  But for what I have used it for it works great.  It found my oxygen sensor was bad and told me so.  Or at least confirmed my suspicions as the most likely reason among several.  It's been replaced and the ten year old car (with 34,000 miles...not bad huh) is back to running beautifully.  I connected on the steering column and turnd the key on and it scanned immediately and found what it needed and was ready to proceed.  In the memory it found the sensors info I guess and pretty soon indicated it should probably be replaced.  I went to the advanced mode and it indicated that it did not function for Subarus which is the only model I can actually report that on I scanned the list and they are primarily american manufacturers if you want advanced services.  Since it did what it did so quickly and efficiently I had no need to use the pc software.  If and when I do I'll come back and report but based on my initial experience I'd say it's a pretty sophisticated piece of equipment that will read II but is not backwards compatible with I.  (my son said I should point out that it does work on Ford Trucks tho why they should take precedence here I haven't a clue)  I'd recommend it.
This device could easily pay for itself after a few uses.  Apparently, cars can have error codes that don't rise to the degree of lighting up the check engine light.  That was the case when I hooked up this to my vehicle.  It showed a transmission problem code, but no dash light lit up.  I took it to a local shop and was able to get a sensor replaced before additional damage was done.This device can be for the novice or the pro by showing you the codes, offering fixes via the Fix Assist, as well as doing live snapshots of data which are helpful to the pros.  It will also remember your vehicles so you don't have to enter it each time.  I guess it needs your vehicle type to determine what fixes you'll need.It comes with a nice, durable case and it appears well built.  It should last a long, long time.I wish I had gotten this a long time ago.  Who knows how much it would have saved me.
This is an excellent scanner for personal use and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it.  The unit comes in a nice, padded case, unlike myActron CP9580A Enhanced AutoScanner Plus with Code Connect, Trilingual, OBD II, CAN and Expanded ABS Coverage.  I do prefer the Actron over the Innova, but that is due to the software in the unit and my familiarity with the Actron.  The Innova is a solidly-built unit that works very well and looks like it should last for a long time.The unit immediately identified my vehicle and provided me with a readout of the particulars of the engine, transmission, etc.  No codes were found when I connected the unit, so I went through the menus and found that there are good number of tests and a ton of data at your fingertips with this unit.  I did O2 sensor tests, ABS tests, live data review, evap tests, etc.  The live data includes pretty much everything a user would ever need or want to know about the operating state of his/her vehicle.I really like the live graphing feature in this unit and I have been impressed with the other features as well.  I like the fact that the cable is not secured to unit permanently as with many scanners.  With my Actron, you will have to replace the unit if your cable is damaged, but the Innova will allow you to replace just the cord.  This may not seem like a big thing, but it would be a lot better to spend $20 for a new cable instead of $200 for a new scanner.The unit can be upgraded via the internet, so it should be fairly future proof for use with newer cars.I do feel that the menu is better on the Actron, but I am simply accustomed to that unit.  I can't fault the Innova at all, so my preference is not indicative of any fault with the Innova.
Microfibers are one of the nicest inventions of the last decade.  But they are not all alike, quality aside.  These are the ones you want for coarser applications, like washing cars and other big surfaces.  One of the most useful properties of microfibers of all sorts is that they do not depend on liquids (let alone surfactants) to be effective cleaning cloths.  This is the grade you want for dusting around the home.  Above the doors and windows.  Behind the TV.  The refrigerator top.  All those places that you would rather not go with some bucket of cleaner, even if it does not need a rinse after.  These do a great job dry, and better than spraying that "dust magnet" on a cloth.These are good for polishing glass either after washing (you get a bunch), or else out of the dishwasher for a final polish.  I am making my crystal radiant.  And my paintings love them, a light touch works well.  Those under glass, get their glass dusted in a second or even scrubbed if the glass is dirty.  These cloths are thin enough to be flexible around the house as well as good in the garage. The 10-pack price is fair for this quality.No, they are not really made to clean your eyeglasses dry or for your computer screen.  There are really fine grade microfibers for those applications.  But in a pinch these will work.  It is the micro that gets you down to the physical level where dry fibers can wick away oils on your lenses and such.  Think of it this way:  these are the modern equivalent of those lovely old French Terry cloths.  I hope they make a bath robe from this, perhaps in a better color.  Socks, now there's an idea...
I've been using microfiber cloths for years, for everything from cleaning glasses to cleaning and drying cars.  This pack from Heininger contains relatively thick cloths that are well finished along the edges--there's no need to worry about fraying here.  They work well for dusting and cleaning.  If you're looking for microfiber cloths, these are a decent choice.
Living with three grown men and a dog in the swamp, my house gets dusty. I can clean and dust and the next day can write my name in the furniture. The Heininger microfiber towel calls itself a "garagemate" but works great in the house. Dust just jumped off the furniture and clung to the towels. The instructions call for it being washed with like colors, so I expect some fading, and you aren't supposed to use dryer sheets or fabric softener.These towels are excellent for picking up dust and dirt.
I've been using microfiber towels for years. They are absolutely the best way to wash and wax your car. Before discovering the Heininger towels, I used the "standard" yellow ones. They do a good job and aren't very expensive. When I got the Heininger towels, I expected them to be very similar to the pile of microfiber wipes that I own. I couldn't be more wrong. These towels are actually different!I figured that microfiber is a commodity and that one brand is pretty much the same as another. This one isn't. The towels are noticeably thicker, softer, and more absorbent. One of these towels lasts as long as two of the others when I am drying the car. They wash clean on the permanent press washer cycle and dry on the "warm" setting on my electric dryer. At about $1.75 each, they are reasonably priced. Personally, I prefer the light colored towels that show any dirt picked up more easily. The dark ones tend to hide the dirt. A dirty towel can scratch your car's finish. Try these. They are absolutely great.NEW INFORMATION 5/16/2013Now that I have had these a while, some serious problems have emerged:1. These towels are not very absorbent. I have a couple of dozen of the basic "yellow" microfiber cloths. They soak up the water! I tried these and they didn't drink very much. I washed them and they still don't begin to compare with their competition. It took a while to learn this due to the very rainy weather here.2. They shrunk! The cloths started off being a nice size and very thick. After one wash they are now smaller than my old cloths.As a result of these issued, I have removed some stars.
These are good quality 12x16" microfiber towels that come in an assortment of colors (Black, Green, Red).  They are of good quality (80% polyester, 20% polyamide) and the stated dimensions are accurate.  These microfiber towels are a bit rougher in texture than some with a slightly different composition (e.g 80% poly, 20% nylon) which is actually a plus for heavy duty cleaning which is the intended use for these towels.  They are great for cleaning windows and windshields, your car, bathrooms, household furniture, dishes, tools and equipment, and so on.  Microfiber cloths are great for cleaning as they are lint-free, very durable, hold a lot of water, and yet wring dry very easily and air dry very quickly.  Very good for "touch up" cleaning of cars and boats.  Good for upholstery as well.  (These are different from the softer micro-fiber cloths used for cleaning camera lenses and eye-glasses.)These deliver everything promised.  If you have never tried micro-fiber cloths for cleaning, you will be in for a pleasant surprise, they're great.  These are as good as any I've seen, and better than many others as they came clean with no strong odors or stray fibers from the manufacturing process as some cheaper towels so.  Kudos for that!Note never use bleach or fabric softener on micro-fiber towels as it will ruin them.  They come clean easily, usually, so often you can just rinse by hand and twist out excess water and hang up to dry.  If needed, you can wash in cold water with soap.These are better than average micro-fiber towels and a good value.(Note: They're even cheaper if you use subscribe & save.)
I'm incredibly particular about what I use when detailing my cars, and I'm happy to say that the Heininger towels made it onto my personal list of "approved" products.First, I like the size of these towels - at 12x16, they're somewhat larger than the other brands I use. I find myself usually folding these sorts of towels into small squares, and the extra size gives me more working time with a single towel...definitely a plus. They are also very soft and absorbent, but still seem able to hold up to hard use.About the only gripe is that they tend to shed a bit when brand new out of the box. I used one to clean my windshield, and I could see a series of fine threads afterwards left on my window. Wash a few times and this is gone - but other brands seem a bit better out of the box. Still, the size, thickness and softness make up for it, and at the price, these are definitely worth checking out.
Let me say that I love microfiber towels. I use them for everything. In housework, they are good for windows, drying dishes, and dusting. I keep them in our vehicles to dust the dash and use during washing and drying and of course, the windows. They are the best thing you can use for windows, no lint comes off on your windows like paper towels do. Dust and particles stick to the microfiber towels so you're not just spreading loose dust around.Something I've came across is that in the clothes dryer, everything sticks to microfiber towels so if you stick one in the dryer, lint and hair will stick to it instead of all your other clothes. I've started using one for that purpose in my dryer.Now for these particular towels: I was disappointed in them. It gives the dimensions so that part is my fault but I pictured them bigger. They are not anywhere as big as the ones that I was already using. They aren't as thick either. These are smaller and thinner.They are nicer, thicker and bigger than ones that I got at the dollar store though so I would rate these about mid-quality.I do like the dark colors, keeps them from looking yucky and discolored from dust, grease and grime.They are mostly polyester so the color doesn't bleed in the wash but it's best to wash them alone so lint from other items doesn't stick to them. Never use fabric softener on them, hurts their ability for stuff to stick to them, the amount of water they'll soak up and will start streaking your windows.
I would put these on-par with Z-wipes and notch or two above the bulk variety you can find at your local Costco.  They did shed significantly less than the Costco variety upon initial use and after using all of the above, I would say that they do pick up dust and cat-fur better than the Z-wipes, and significantly better than the Costco version.If I had to choose between these and the Zwipes, I'd go with the Zwipes variety pack as they have some purpose built microfibers that work exceptionally well on glass, drying, etc.  For general purpose cleanup and/or dusting around the house, these are superior.
These towels seem well-made and have been really useful the few times I've used them.  I expect to use them again with some Meguiar's products to buff up my Hyundai Equus.  Not usre if that is the best use of these towels but I'll edit this review if I find out anything useful in that regard.
These towels do an amazing job when it comes to cleaning a car.I would recommend these towels.The more plush microfiber towels seem easier to clean with and absorb more dirt,water, and so forth.I also prefer the black towels.Good deal for the money.5-Pack Of Microfiber Towels-Two Black 16" by 16" All Purpose Micro fiber Cleaning Towels - Two - 16" by 16"White All Purpose Microfiber Cloths - One 16' By 18" Microfiber Glass Cleaning Towel
Wonderful towels.  They seem to be very well made, decent thickness and a great size.Endlessly useful for everything under the roof.  I've never understood why so many microfiber towels are primarily pastel colors.I'm glad to find some that are a decent, useful size and available in darker colors.
I use microfiber cloths almost exclusively for most household, garage and woodworking uses. From cleaning stove tops, car glass, windows, wiping dust off just sanded woodwork, etc. I currently have two other brands in house, both purchased in 36 packs so I welcomed the chance to test this product head to head in all the usual daily uses mentioned. Physically these are the same size, same make-up (80%-20%) and subjectively nearly the same knapp or feel to hand as the other products. They performed exactly the same both wet and dry, rinsed the same and dried in the same amount of time. Other than color, I could detect no difference. So why only 2 stars? These are nearly 4 times the price of the other brands tested per cloth.Make no mistake, these are top quality microfiber clothes, fluffy and not thin, do everything well and rinse easily. But so do the other brands and they do it much much less expensively.
I regularly use microfiber towels, generally for cleaning tasks anywhere (household, outdoor, garage, automotive, etc).  Although these are listed in the automotive section, I really like them for use all around the house.  The grey color is great and can be hard to find.  The color did not fade (I washed the towels separately in hot water before first use just in case) and does not show dirt like other colors.  The towels washed up nicely, were fluffy and did not curl up on the edges.  I like the handy rectangular shape (12"x16") versus the typical square.  The most important part - they performed well for both dry (dusting) and wet (cleaning and drying) tasks.
I love the size, it's larger than most that you get in a pack.  My husband likes darker colors because they don't show the soil so fast.  Washing is a breeze and it doesn't lose the cushy softness and special feel microfiber has.
These were very good towels, great for waxing and polishing the car.I thought they were a little too nice to use with on nasty household/garage jobs, but great for jobs where you need a soft clean cloth to work with.Between these and the ZwipesZwipes Microfiber Cleaning Cloths (36-Pack)I thought the Z-Wipes were softer and had more depth.  That was better for car work (Polishing, Waxing), but the Heininger GarageMates did much better for polishing metal, cleaning glass, and interior work like plastics and leather.There's virtually no fuzz on these, which makes them great for things like glass and mirrors which I've had a heck of a time doing with anything but newspaper.  Use them withRain-X 800002243 Glass Treatmentand expend much less energy and still don't get those hazy streaks.They clean up in the wash better than the zwipes, probably in part since they're dark colored and don't show the dirt as bad.Definitely a heck of a value.
If you do your own car cleaning and detailing, you know you will go through a lot of microfiber towels (tip #1- normal used cotton towels are too scratchy, especially for interior work). These are also a must for any cleaning work on LCD screens (like your TV, Computer Monitor and Navigation screen in many cars).  And you can never have too many, especially once your significant other finds out about how soft they are.  So no worries, just throw another stack of 10 into your next Amazon order and you're good to go.  Tip #2, once these are dirty keep them separate from your other laundry and only wash them with other microfiber towels. Tip #3, I keep a fresh one in my car's driver door storage bin at all times, as they do a great job of cleaning the haze off of the interior glass between detailing sessions.  Plus if you have a coffee accident, the towel is right there to bail you out.So good quality microfiber towels in a ten pack, at a low Amazon price- recommended.
I'm pretty anal about cleaning my cars.  I own a Ferrari, a high end Porsche as well as a classic restored MG TD.  I'm careful about what types of towels touch their paint.  These microfiber towels from Heininger are at least as good as the microfiber towels I used to purchase from classic car specialty shops.These towels are not used to wash the car nor dry it when it's soaking wet; they aren't the right size nor material, but they are perfect for drying and buffing small areas after the application of detailing sprays such as Griot's SpeedShineGriot's Garage 11146 Speed Shine - 35 oz..  They are also great for cleaning the inside of the car -- great for dusting.  I keep one in each glove compartment.While they can be washed, I sometimes simply throw them away if they get too dirty.  If you wash them, don't use a fabric softener.  Fabric softeners interfere with the functionality of the microfibers.
Ideal for dusting and cleaning your house and car. These are quality towels, although I own some that are slightly heavier, but these work and hold up very well. I would definitely buy these same towels in the future.
I'm no textile expert, but color aside, these seem identical toZwipes, which I consider one of the best purchases I ever made.GarageMate microfiber towels can be used dry or wet.  They are great for picking up dust, or spills, so keep a couple handy inside your vehicle.  Used wet, you really only need water, except for dirt that requires solvent (tar, bug splatter).  You can add a drop of dishwashing liquid to a bucket if the dirt is crusty.  Wipe on, then wipe off with a dry towel.  You can use them inside the house, too.  Great for cleaning glass and mirrors.These are sturdy, absorbent, machine-washable, and dry quickly.  Do not use fabric softener or dryer sheets.  I often machine wash and hang them to dry.So, look, guys.  You know that skanky bunch of old t-shirts and sweat socks you've been hoarding for car washing?  Get rid of them and get these.  They work ten times better!  And they don't get musty.  And remember, a girl likes a clean car, but she doesn't have to know how little effort you put into it.
I use these to wax my bike and car.  They are much more thick than most of my other microfiber towels, and they're completely lint-free.  They're also much more nappy than most of the other towels I've come across.  With 10, you can also dedicate 1-2 for 'household cleaning' without worrying about it.  Highly recommended, really high quality.I received this from the manufacturer for testing and review and have shared my honest experience in this review.
The product description omits my favorite use of these towels... polishing the finish on my automobiles. The product description says the towels do not require you to use chemicals. While that is true, it is not a unique feature of these towels. It could apply to any towel.Best use: polishing.Non-recommended uses. Greasy tools, window glass. For these, you want an abrasive cloth.These are definately non abrasive.
These are well finished towels and not particularly thick.  They are split microfiber, so they do absorb a bit and work well for cleaning.  The black color does not come off when wet, so it seems they have done a nice job with the dye.My only complaint about these is that they are not super soft.  They are not rough, but I have used other softer microfiber towels from my local auto shop.  Maybe these are just thinner, but the impression I have is that they are not as soft as some of the others.  In any event, it's not like these are going to scratch up your car or come anywhere near being called abrasive.one star deduction because not quite as soft and think as some others I have run across.
these micrfibres are meh for removing wax, make you work harder than you need to. I tried them out because they were a good price but I wouldn't buy them again. I also tried using them to quick-wax the car & it just seems to move the fluid around the paint, and doesn't take it off. it worked a bit better after I soaked them in Pinnacle Microfibre detergent, but I recommend the Meguiars X4014 10000000 times over these, you get what you pay for!
i wouldnt use this on any of my cars, its good for household of cleaning, but not goot for car paint finishes, will easily cause light scratches, even if pressure is not applied.
I've used a wide variety of microfiber shop towels, and the Heininger 5410 towels are pretty good for a towel meant for general use. The size is good for most uses and the towel is soft enough to not worry about scratching and strong enough not to worry about falling apart. Absorbency is typical, which is to say not as much as a cotton towel, but useful enough. Perhaps the most striking feature of these towels is the brilliant red color - the photo doesn't do it justice!
I've been detailing my own vehicles for the past 15 years and have become rather particular about what makes contact with the paint. Use the wrong type of towel and you can end up with swirl marks or worse, scratches on the paint. Things you may not notice until the wax starts to wear off.First it's important to note that these aren't meant to be used with soap and water or to dry off a soaking wet vehicle. They aren't large enough and really aren't the best material. For that, you'd want a good wash mitt and 100% cotton towel. But if you're looking to do some waxing, dusting, or touch-up with a detailing spray, these are perfect.I've already used them for my regular detailing on my black GMC Sierra Denali and they worked exactly as I expected them to. Yes, it's a fun color to keep clean! I dusted with my duster, applied the detailing spray, wiped it off with the microfiber towel, and then followed up with another unused towel to make sure I didn't miss anything.That second pass with a dry towel is important. That's how you make sure you don't end up with smear marks. Then dusted the interior, also using the microfiber towel, with the GM detailing spray which takes care of all of the leather and plastics. Finish up by wiping down the chrome wheels and I've got a shiny truck.So they passed the initial test and worked great. Only time will tell after multiple uses and washes if they hold up. I'll post a follow up review once I've gotten some more use out of them. For now, I consider them recommended.
Replaced a majority of the lights in my car with these. Looks brighter as well as less yellow. Time will tell on how long they will last. Technically they should last longer than my old fashion filament bulbs but then again the car is 11 years old and I have only had to replace 1 bulb.
I've been trying different versions of these type bulbs since I find they all differ in small, but significant ways. Trying to settle on one which works in the widest variety of uses. It seems all the led 194 bulbs are slightly larger in diameter than the incandescent type. Usually can be overcome with a little reaming of the fixture they are going into, but not always. Lengthwise these are slightly shorter than others I have tried and fit into license plate lights and other small places where length is critical. I used 9 of these and 3 festoons to replace all the interior lighting in a Suburban. These are much brighter and whiter and probably use less amperage than one bulb of the originals. Now if a map light gets left on, no worries about start-up next morning. All these types I have tried so far have tiny wire contacts that are finicky sometimes, but I have figured out how to position them for good connections. I'll try some of the ones with the printed circuit type connections next and see if that is better.
These lamps have many uses in car lighting applications and are just plug and play and really cheap as most LEDs are.
Replace quite a few of my lights (87 Jeep XJ), but I'm not turned.I end up going back to regular bulbs (stop lights)However I do like the looks on side markers lenses ..........Mix feelings here!
Still looking for the "right" lights for our camper.  Bought 20 of these, 0ne dead out of the gate, one failed after a couple of hours and another failed after about a week (guessing 4 hrs of use).  85% is NOT a good number for quality control!  While they are fairly bright, they just aren't as bright as we are looking for.  Probably will use these for the running lights and will try something else for inside.  And as others and the instructions state, if at first they don't light, turn them 180 Degrees and re-insert.  If they still don't light you've got a bad one(s).UPDATE:  While they were not good for inside, they work fine as marker light bulbs.
Unfortunately I was feeling cheap when I decided to replace all my bulbs. Now everything flickers. I feel like there is a disco going on when they are in use..  just pay a little extra for some quality, your not going to be happy for very long with these.
It took a little working to get them to work to replace my 921 bulbs. The wire tabs come like this I I and the bases need to be bent out like this / \. They only work in one direction, so it takes a little patience to know if the wire isn't bent right or just put in backwards. They do not get hot like the old one and put off a clean white light instead of the usual yellowish light.
All bulbs worked and are very bright. Just make sure you orient them correctly...If you plug them in and they don't work, unplug them and turn them around.
So half work great, nice and bright, but quality control sucks on these. Half are missing the wire, or are too short and wont go in connection. I buy alot from these people so i'm saving all my bad ones and shipping them back once I have 20 bad ones!Can't beat the price though!
This little thing is great for cars with OBD II female connector under the steering wheel where the thigh goes under. It's low profile so it won't hit my leg, like other "taller" adapters or wired adapters.The bluetooth is an older protocol (hard code pin code) which is actually good for me. I have Android 2.2 double din radio/navigation installed in a BMW X5 (E53). Android 2.2's bluetooth does not support dynamic pin number that some bluetooth device requires (e.g., newer bluetooth keyboard).As for communication, connecting to bluetooth and establish OBD II connection both takes about 2-5 seconds simultaneously from Android app. It sends info to my app on both Android 2.2 and Android 4.2 devices just fine (using Torque).However, Torque is reporting some communication errors over bluetooth, but it's like 1% of times. That is acceptable to me, especially for an wireless mini adapter at this price range. It's almost a no-lose situation to take a risk.
As shown in other reviews the unit from brainydeal seems to be the best unit. It works great in for 2012 Ford F-150 and the android torque application.
I am using my android tablet to monitor my vehicle. Loaded the &#34;Torque OBDII - Pro&#34; app, plugged in the Super Mini, fired up the vehicle and linked the tablet thru Bluetooth and bingo....Communications works well with no issues connecting. I am reading all sorts of data as well as getting nice graphs and data logs.
Reviewer's device: Google/Asus Nexus 7 (2012 / WXGA / 1st Generation)Reviewer's car: 2013 Hyundai Veloster 1.6 T-GDI (Turbo)+ Works as it should+ Cheap+ Small and direct to the point No instructions.Notes I had to try a lot of pass-code/passkey/PIN for Bluetooth. it's &#34;1234&#34; for me. Initially, could not pair. I was at wits end, but decided to reboot my device. It did pair after that. IT IS YET TO STAND THE TEST OF TIME AS THIS IS A DAY-ONE REVIEW.Verdict: I RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT.
Performs as advertised. Reads and clears error codes. Get's engine data from sensor and stuff like that. Helped me diagnose a bad O2 sensor, and then determine which O2 sensor was the problem (since stupid Toyota Matrix Repair manual is too ambiguous to specify which sensor is located where).
Product worked for a week fine. After that the bluetooth would not pair, tried all codes and different devices but would not work. Don't buy.
I have trouble connecting to this unit.  Sometimes it works right away, sometimes not.  Once it does connect, it's absolutely fantastic.  I can check on many aspects of my engine to help troubleshoot problems.  And you can check and clear engine codes.
I bought this unit to connected to my old tablet things (samsung galaxy player 5.0 US yg-70 or something) for the torque app...it connects and communicates...just trying to figure out the app now....the pass I think is 1234 or 0000....
I've had this unit over 5 months and it works perfectly with the Torque application on Android. Every ODBII car that I've tried (Acura, Nissan, Honda, BMW)  connects right up. The unit has a small footprint. and is powered by the port, so no batteries or external power is required. It's fairly stealthy and (on most cases,) you won't even see it.On the negative side, it does get really hot on occasion. When it does start cooking it's self, the signal drops. To be fair, 98% of the time, it's fine and I don't regret buying it.
Slow to pair with my Nexus 7, but it does work very, very well! I think this one is the best overall bang for the buck of all the Bluetooth OBD2 dongles. Another great benefit is being able to pull your car up next to any other car, and as long as you are close enough for bluetooth to connect you can pull engine codes from your friends cars also!
came as they were expected nice quality not as bright as I thought they would be had to order another product
You have wait till its dark to know if these are on or not, cant see them at all in the daytime.
I had no problem with these at all.  I guess i picked the correct polarity the first time because both lights worked after the first try.These are nice and bright and actually help me see through my tinted windows while backing up much more than the stock lights.
Well I'm not sure about these now. I purchased them for the DRL in my 2005 silverado and I loved how they worked.  Now a couple months later I noticed flickering in the reflection in the car in front of me so when I got home I risked my life putting it in drive with the parking brake on only to discover that both sides have flickering leds.  A majority of them work but I'm not sure if it will last and it's annoying that they don't work. Maybe I got a bad pair because the ones in my back up lights still work but they aren't on a lot so there's that.
I have these in my brake lights and they sure are bright. The lights are easier to see at night. I will definitely be buying more of these.
The bulbs are well made and arrived very quick. Installed them on the Stop light of my Camry 2000 LE and looked very nice at night. You can discretely distinguish between the LED's and the oldies , however the light on dash has come up as computer detects as bulb out and hence it suggests me to upgrade my car to make best of current technology
I simply cannot recommend these for reverse bulbs. Both bulbs had MOST of the LED not working and they are no where near as bright as the factory bulbs...probably due to the led not lighting up.
There are some things that you may not like but which I cheerfully overlook. First of all it's not a custom fit. For a custom fit seat cover, look to paying up to $250. For the savings, I always went with generic covers from Costco. The Costco covers were pure fabric. There was no water resistance other than the thickness of the cover. If you spilled something, you just had to be fast enough to pull the cover away from the actual seat. With a good dollop of a spill you won't make it. But a little oops was not a big problem. This cover truly is water resistant. It has what appears to be a rubberized lining under the tough fabric material. Dickies does not advertise it as waterproof, so I assume that liquid will seep through very slowly. Even with a larger than normal spill, you should be able to recover before anything seeps through.It allows for side air bags. Both sides have zippers. You don't zipper the side that contains the side air bags. The Costco covers didn't have that feature, so I just hoped I didn't get hit from the side. I would get these just for that feature.I drive a 2009 Toyota Rav4. This cover doesn't fit perfectly. it's actually just a teeny bit larger than it need be. But that's better than the Costco cover, which was a teeny bit smaller than it should have been. Being smaller, the Costco cover would often come off when I got up. This cover does no such thing. It stays put. There is occasional drift because of one of the sides not being zipped, but it's minimal and a quick tug fixes it.Living in Hawaii, I often get in the car with damp clothing from the beach or "jungle" hikes. The fact that this covers the seat, doesn't come off easily, and is made of tough water-resistant material sells me on it.
This is a fantastic cover for those truck seats. Durable,  and functionally attractive, this seat cover will protect and stand up against the working person challenges.
This seat cover is slightly large for the Dodge Ram 1500 Crew Cab drivers seat, but it is well made & fits adequately enough that we find its usefulness far outweighs the fit.The cover is a black canvas with a polyester coated backing (I assume that is why 100% polyester is in the product description while Canvas is in the title).  There are side zippers to help fit the cover over the back & holes positioned for a arm rest & safety belts.  The backrest is made as shown in the picture - the cover is not designed for a moveable headrest, so you either have to raise your headrest & put the cover over the headrest or modify the seat cover & get more slack in your cover.This cover is on our construction truck.  We have always used universal covers on this truck rather than custom covers because the construction truck covers get a lot of wear & dirt & spills.  The previous cover was polyester & lasted about 1-1/2 years.  This cover is heavier & seems to be more durable.  Time will tell, but I am pleased with the materials & construction quality.
The Dickies seat covers are a very durable and inexpensive alternative to frayed and worn car seats.  We have older cars that are in great condition but as expected, the upholstery is beginning to get worn.  The seat covers are well-made and easy to put on the seats.  The cover for the driver's seat has a very heavy duty zipper and the seat covers are water resistant (great for kids).  The fabric is heavy and the covers are hand washable.  We have priced seat covers and these are very reasonably priced. I would recommend these to save your upholstery.  You really can't beat the price.
I really wonder about the good reviews this seat cover gets. The back part of the seat cover is made of women's panty hose. One of the ones I received was ripped out of the box. The front part you sit on is tough enough but its attached to nylon back same as panty hose I kid you not. $20 worth of aggravation is what you get. Mine is being returned at no cost thanks to Amazon. Really now, when I ask for canvas tough seat cover this is more like the seat cover for drug store cowboys. It won't last..It wont wear through though, it will just come apart the stitching. Its like stitching toilet paper to saddle leather, just not going work.Be careful installing, rips easy..  One of mine was ripped out of the box.I hope we didn't make this here in the USA, shame shame..-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------3rd time's a charm: June 11Continuation of the Dickie's Seat Cover Saga;I got another one in the mail today, IT RIPPED ALSO putting it on worse than the other one, that came ripped.No way these will hold up, sent them all three back two ripped and one very carefully re-boxed. This 3rd one did not rip at the panty hose material seem but right in the but area where the canvas is sewn together where you sit. Really bad Dickie's. I did not sit in it, happened during install ripped completely out.I WAS BEING CAREFUL installing; so there !Pretty good seat cover for all you DRUG STORE COWBOYS..Worth the $20 no..Poor Dickie's must be hurting..
The Dickies seat covers are a very durable and inexpensive alternative to frayed and worn car seats.  We have older cars that are in great condition but as expected, the upholstery is beginning to get worn.  The seat covers are well-made and easy to put on the seats. They are water resistant (great for kids). The covers are hand washable and air dry (in the shade).  This is a great way to protect that bench seat as the canvas material is very heavy.  We have priced seat covers and these are very reasonably priced. I would recommend these to save your upholstery.  You really can't beat the price.
Used it for my Jeep Wrangler Rubicon backseat for dog protection.  Not a custom fit but it works great and doesn't look out of place.  Made of good sturdy canvas material, should hold up for a long time.
Dickies Heavy Duty Black Rear Bench Seat Cover was what I expected.  It is made of heavy polyester material that should wear very well.  It is made to be water resistant and can be removed to machine wash.  There are two reinforced seat belt slots with elastic banded top and bottom side holders.  Having used seat covers in the past, I was very much aware of how difficult they are to install and get to stay in place and this one is no exception.  After making some alteration, I was finally able to get this to look and function ok.  I had to slit the seat belt slots to make them fit the ones in my old truck but this was a simple alteration.  Then the one addition was to add a small bungie cord to keep the tension on the back of the seat and two other bungie cords to keep the tension on the bottom sides.  These were easy to do and now my old vinyl seat is warmer and should last longer.  The cover is priced right and looks good.  It should last for some time and if your in need of a seat cover it is well worth looking into.
This Dickies bench seat cover is made to be durable and water resistant, and is designed to cover bench seats that don't include seatbelts (which isn't mentioned in the online description at Amazon even though a large percentage of rear bench seats do have seatbelts). It's not hard to install over the seat. The surface is thick, like a canvas, not soft. When new it has an unpleasant chemical odor since it's 100% polyester. I would prefer a natural fabric like hemp that doesn't outgas a synthetic smell. This cover is good for protecting the seat but it doesn't have a smooth feel and can't be kept covering seats where people will sit and use seat belts. Thus, it has limitations that make it less versatile than I'd expected. It's OK for some people but I'd prefer something else.
This is a very nice light-weight but sturdy rear seat cover. It's advertised as 'universal' and if you are not fussy about the snugness of the fit then universal is accurate. It's held in place by straps on either side of the seat. While that makes it easy to install, it does not offer any protection to the outer sides.I tried the cover in my Dodge Caravan and it is a little too big and rumples up. It fits nicely on the larger seat in my husband's Chevy Avalanche, and that is where it will stay, protecting the seat from tools and other stray items he tosses in the back.The cover has two openings for seat belts but I would not rely on them to match up with the belts already built into the seat or to be able to use the shoulder belt. Our vehicles back seats are used mostly for stowing and hauling things around rather than passengers so that was not an issue for me. If one is often transporting passengers I would recommend a cover made specifically for the vehicle.
Just received this LED yesterday.  It is not quite as bright as 1141 and a slight bit more yellow. Not near as bright as 1156 and is quite yellow side by side. I paid $5.95 Monday and I wanted to buy a matching lamp for the fixture in our RV but today, Friday the price has gone up $4.00 to $9.95. In my opinion, it is not worth ten bucks. Disappointed. I would have given this item 4 stars (like it) but I can only give 3 stars (it's okay) because the vendor nearly doubled the price of the item which has greatly reduced the value of the item.
I bought 10 of a similar type that were a bit harsh.  I still liked those but some people complained about them.I decided to try two of these, and they light is warmer, not as bright, and installed these as reading lights in my RV.I will be buying a few more and installing them over my dinette so I can alter the mood by changing the color slightly.I still like the bright white ones for the outstanding brightest, but these definitely have a place.
We purchased these to replace the cool white version of them we had purchased from BrightChoice earlier in the year. We weren't very fond of the cool white color once we had them in our RV, so when the warm white version became available on Amazon I jumped on them.These are just as high quality as the cool white ones, only with a warmer tone that more closely resembles that of incandescent bulbs. I moved all the cool white ones to the outside luggage compartment and inside our closets where we need the cooler lighting, and put these warm ones inside on all the rest of the fixtures.Our total 12v usage now is about 80% less than it was with incandescent bulbs, and these are a whole lot cooler operating and should last for many years. If you're looking for warm LED replacements for single pole (1141, 1156, etc.) incandescent bulbs, then these are the ones to buy. Great quality, energy efficient and warm white.
We RV a lot. The coach had pocket halogen spot lights. These were hot, both to touch or to sit under. I wondered about changing them out with LEDs, and gave these a try.I wanted the warm white LEDs. Why these cost double the price of the bright white LEDs is not clear. That is the only annoying thing about this transaction.The lights are bright. They put off more light than the 20 watt halogen they replaced.There is very little heat. The fixture base is warm to touch, not flaming halogen hot.The lights installed easily. If they are typical for LEDs they should last a long time.
Definitely a significant drop on the load to the 12 battery on my travel trailer and I can certainly see that it will help with keeping the heat down during the summer months.
Works great in my Forest River R-Pod Model: R-177.  I have one installed as my porch light.  I can keep it on all night without concern of draining my battery.
This is my very favorite LED bulb for use in our '71 Airstream trailer. I've now replaced all the inside bulbs with these, and am very much appreciating how much longer the house battery lasts, and how much less heat the bulbs generate. Things are also a lot brighter inside than with the original incandescant bulbs.Highly recommended!
Great lights, arrived quickly.  I am using these in my travel trailer.  They are bright and give off a nice warm light.  Nice product at a very reasonable price considering the free shipping if you purchase over $25 worth of products.  I had tried one and hoped to purchase more once I looked at it, but they were unavailable.  Hopefully they will last a long time.
I recently replaced all of the incandescent bulbs inside our camper with these LED's.  The light level is comparable to the old bulbs.  The light is a warm white, not quite as yellow as the old ones.  We use a lot less energy / battery life by creating light without all the heat.  The light fixtures now remain cool to the touch, even after extended use.
well i hooked it up in our cabin/rv hoping for a lot of light, and i was kinda disapointed.  id say it is equally bright as the 1156 bulb it replaced.  it drew .3 amps instead of 1.3.  so the draw decrease was nice, but it wasnt any brighter than an 1156.  slightly cooler temp color if youre into the florescent light look.
I just installed a number of these in my RV to replace 1156 incandescent bulbs in the overhead pancake light fixtures. They are working really well and provide just as much light as what they replaced. I feel a lot more comfortable using all the lights when dry camping now, as they use a fraction of the energy. I also tried LEDWholesalers 18 x 5050 SMD LED 3.6w Warm White bulbs, but found them to not be quite as bright.I definitely recommend the Warm White over the regular White (or Cool White, depending on the manufacturer.)
Not the best smelling freshener on the market.  I use a different product to help the car smell better but this did fit the bill and made the odor go away.
I really like this product but I do like the spray better. This, however, does its job keeping odors away. I keep one in each bathroom and although it is slower acting than the spray, it still does a great job.
I'm not sure if it just covers up smoke smell or eliminates it. I put this in my car that I smoke in, and it does seem to eliminate the odor, but not permanently.It kind of smells like fresh laundry or febreeze. It's a fresh, clean scent. I like it, and I would probably buy this product again.
My wife has the pickiest nose on the planet.  She likes it.  That is high praise.  She ates everything else that smells fake,  they last about 2-3 weeks.  Depends on airflow.  I use one in the car and one near the dog.
I love this stuff, no matter what I have left in my van it kills the smell. I haul gas cans and other things in the summer and also it just has a funk to it sometimes. It's a 98 w/198k on it so it's my old work van that I use to haul and even though I don't smoke I'm sure one of the other occupants did but this makes it all go away.This is the same as the spray just a longer lasting and constant odor blocker. I put this in the cup holder between the seats and off we go.
As usual the plugs were wired backwards so I pulled the pins swapped them and they worked perfect in my suburban . Get your quality control right SDX! !!!
the material looks nice and the packing is good too. only matter that I haven't have time to install of it. once I install it I shall post the latest result of the HID light. let share the idea of this HID kit. Thanks
BRIGHT! I like the color of these. Everything came in the box, and it was well packaged. The only problem was there was very vague instructions. You could figure it out on your own, but it would be nicer with instructions. It was a tight fit in my pontiac grand am. Great product overall!
Simple install and a great upgrade to any vehicle, this is my 3rd set and I will continue to buy as they have not let me down. I love the 8k color, not too much blue but not too white... Great product
Heads-up:  For a Ford F350 install, this requires the removal of your grill in order to get at the bolts to remove your headlight assemblies.  It took about an hour and a half.  I like the clearer 5000K light spectrum for night vision.  The lights are high/low beam, one bulb.The instructions are quite possibly the worst I've ever tried to use.  The translation to english is a joke.  Many instructions simply don't make sense.  The pictures are conflicting in their attempt to cover several different types of HID Xenon conversion bulbs for several different makes/model of cars.  Good thing this wasn't the first kit I've installed.
This is a great budget HID KIT.  Being an HID supplier, sometimes I get low and need to order more kits right away.  Being an amazon prime member I love the two day shipping.  These are 6,000K and true to the color, a diamond white.  These are NOT pure white but are a slight Xenon HID Look.  These are PERFECT if you want something bright and legal.Box is Nice, Comes with instructions and brackets, Quality of bulbs good. I have not had a bad ballast especially after buying 5+ Kits thus far!I would totally recommend these to anyone.  Also If you change the bulb size other then the 9006 6000k the HID kit will be priced more.
So far I used it on my own car, to see what the check engine light came on for and was able to clear it with no problems. I also used it three times on friends car . Very useful equipment for today's computer controlled cars . Easy to use just follow the instructions on the screen. Already paid for itself.
The price goes up and down and I waited until it was the lowest I've seen to buy. This device does it all and was showing me codes I have never seen from my truck. It's very detailed and easy to use for the most part. Amazon has the best price usually, but again, monitor the price for awhile and get it when the price is low.
I would've given it had it been made in the USA (took off x1 star for being made in China).The CP9850A works well on my '04 TL.  It can access ECUs for engine, tranny (mine is stick shift so it doesn't matter but for those w/automatic it would be of a great help), ABS & VSA.  Accessing SRS, Memory system, Instrument, Climate control & such requires Honda's HDS; a hefty $2,000 at Snap-on tool program.The display is automatically back-lit when you connect the unit to the vehicle, and you can adjust the brightness (contrast; &#34;+&#34; darkens the screen & &#34;-&#34; brightens, which seems backwards to me).  Domestic models seem to recognize with auto identification but I had to enter the TL manually.For DIYer, this scanner would suffice and is woth the money as a shop/dealer charges $100+ per visit just to reset codes, CEL, ABS, etc.... I bought CP9580AL for protection as it is a precision instrument.
An excellent all around scanner, capable of reading ABS and wheel speed sensors on some later model cars in addition to OBD II trouble codes, internet updatable, and loaded with features.  Great tool for the advanced DIY'er or a pro.
Reads ABS, engine and 4 wheel drive codes for my 2001 Silverado. Glad to see that it can read 4 wheel drive codes as many scanners do not. Reads code and offers the most likely cause for the code in the order of the most likely first. Shows live data. Good to keep in your car. Does not run tests like the much more expensive units that the car dealers have.
I still haven't used the one I bought, but I've used the exact reader at Advance Auto, and it has never let me down.I read some people were having problems updating the software. I did not run into any problems, just follow the instructions on Actron's website.
I got this adapter so I can monitor my car's voltage while my very high powered sound system is playing. It is good to keep an eye on it to make sure your alternator and capacitor are keeping up with the music also good to make sure all of your electrical items are getting correct voltage and for trouble shooting. Very neet little things to have.
It's definitely not super accurate, but I wanted to keep the interior of the car stock looking so this plugs into the outlet and gives me a general idea of where the electrical system is at. You will need another meter like I have connected directly to the battery bank also in order to have a true reading. It's easy to read and in a neat package. Also if you need the outlet back you can take it out.
Quick and easy to use to check voltage of your car/boat/truck or whatever. Just plug it in and watch the voltage and see what your alternator is actually putting out. Very easy to read and see.I use this in our boat and car and more to check charging systems off and on to make sure they are working well and hopefully prevent breakdowns. If voltage is high or low I can use this to see it and fix it  before I am stranded on the lake or at the store.
I am impressed by the build quality of this simple volt meter.  There is a fuse built in and the plastic is very solid.  The side spring connectors have good tension to keep this plugged in tight.  Despite the blue tint to the lens, the LEDs are RED colored.  You get readings with .1 decimal increments.  The readings in my car update about every second as the alternator voltage varies.  I measured this against a Fluke meter and it tracked almost exactly.  Will probably order more  for stocking stuffers.  These would be great to keep in the glove box just like a tire pressure gauge!
Received sooner than expected. Well packed and are better quality than others I have seen in the past. Will purchase again when I need more. Nice bright display.
This thing only works in one of three cigarette lighters in my RV.  The display does appear to be LED so don't leave it plugged in for long.  More cheap Chinese stuff.
they work very well, I got 2 of them they are made well and are almost accurate , only off by 0.2 volts. can not beat the price. I use them on my motorcycles to make sure my charge system is working good and to make sure I have good battery voltage. they work great I leave them plugged in all the time. I would buy more for sure
I have a Wrangler JK and have added many mods so I wanted a quick way to monitor the voltage of my battery.  This allowed me to do just that.  Functions as expected, easy to read and is accurate.  No complaints here.
This made in China thingy is cheap and works great.  I am totally happy with it.  Let's see if it lasts!
This inflator has an easy to read gauge.  The hose clamps on to the valve stem of the tire securely.
I guess you can make it work for you but be gentle with it. The base is not very heavy duty and mine cracked, making it useless.
I bought this inflator for my car because of the head that comes with it.  I have another inflator with a right-angle clip on attachment that leaks no matter how I try.  This inflator's head sealed properly so it's a keeper.  Only time will tell if the years will have any impact on it..  Right out of the box, this inflator worked properly.  There was nothing to tighten and that's a plus in my book.  The gauge gave reading that seemed very close to those of the other gauges I have including a Topeak D2 SmartGauge and an Amazon Basics.I only gave this inflator 4 stars because a key issue is reliability over the long term.  Since I've only had the gauge for a few days, I can't comment on that.
This gauge/filler is high quality and works like a professional one.  Flexible hose makes filling bikes, lawnmower, cars, etc tires easy!
This gauge is terrible.  It does not inflate well, the trigger pull is tiny, your hands will cramp up before something is inflated, even a soccer ball took minutes to inflate.  Trust me, view what other customers viewed after this item and try those. Pass on this, don't get suckered in by the low price.
There are some confusing reviews for this product that made me curious enough to buy it. To clear up the confusion: this tire inflator does not readily work with Presta valves and it does not ship with an adapter, so you will have to get your own adapter. I am primarily using it for my bike tires that are rated 110 to 140psi - my compressor produces about 110 psi, maybe a bit more. Even though this inflator is only rated up to 100psi, I with the 200psi gauge this allows me to check and correct the tire pressure quickly.I tried the inflator with a car tire and noticed that the mechanism that clips it to the valve is a bit unusual (and flimsy/cheap). Air will escape unless the hose is held totally straight and there is no lateral force to the connection. This is a bit difficult to achieve. This is no different when I use it with the Presta adapter. I am not sure I would order this product again.
I recently purchased several cell phone mounts that work in my car's cd player but was thinking that the visor idea was not bad so gave this a try.  It's probably the best option for anyone out there that actually uses their cd player or in a car that may not have one, but in general, the phone is set on the backend of the visor so makes it awkward to try to actually touch any of the buttons.  This shouldn't be a problem if you're using a blue tooth headset, but if you're one that likes to interact with it for GPS or anything else, it's an awkward reach.  The good news is that it fits just about any size phone be it small or large including Smartphones such as the Samsung Galazy, Iphone, ad Blackberry.  It would also accomodate old tiny phones such as the motorola razor.  The grip is firm and adjusting it is extremely easy.The final comparison is that if you have this plugged into the car charger, the cord is now hanging from your visor which is not ideal.  I would still recommend a dash mount or cd mount device over this one where it functions more like a built in and is much closer to you and the dc power outlet.
Is your dashboard too packed with other stuff? This is the solution for you... You can use your Sun visors to clamp this on. The clamp is very long so the attachment is very sturdy.One drawback is that you cannot use the visor while the mount is on it... obviously.
This visor mount is very well made and thought out.  It has a large clip that holds the body of it tightly, and there is a nice snug swivel on it that allows one to adjust it to any direction for viewing or storing as you drive.  Both the sides of it and the back has that nice non slip rubber that works very well in keeping the phone from slipping or falling out if upright.  The side panels, or claws can be squeezed in with a ratchet sound that holds even a small cell phone tightly, and you can release the grip by a push of the button on the side.  All in all its a pretty nifty little gadget if you own either some kind of smart phone with a touch screen, or a GPS unit.  You can answer a call with just a touch of the phone and talk via the speaker with it raised to face level and just across from you.  (Just make sure to mount it far enough away from your line of sight as the directions state).The only down side to this model is that it is not really designed for flip style cell phones.  Even the directions included suggest it is best used with touch screen phones and GPS devices.  It will adjust and snugly hold a flip phone efficiently enough, but since a flip phone has to be opened to answer a call it would require one to pull it all the way out while on the road.  Not convenient at all.  Trying to get it to hold a flip phone while open didn't work very well either.  It slipped and just isn't designed for it.  If you still own and are happy with your flip phone as I am, this thing really isn't much good for anything but acting as a holder between calls.In conclusion, this is a very well made gadget that can come in very handy for handling calls or for holding a GPS device while on the road.  Especially if you like talking on the speaker while driving that is of course the safest way.  However just keep in mind as noted that it is neither recommended nor works well with flip phones...  : )
I wasn't sure about this.  I have a BLU 5.3 inch phone...similar size to the Galaxy Note.  Surprisingly, the easy slide gripper on this grasped the huge phone securely.  The visor clip worked easily and fit well on my sun visor in my FJ Cruiser (SUV).  The rotator won't  allow me to move the phone into any position I wanted, but it did have a fairly good range of motion. So I was able to adjust the phone into a good position eventually.I would definitely recommend this product.  And if you have one of the larger cell phones, like a Galaxy 3 or the Note or other big smartphones, you can rest assured that this will work for you.
I already have a suction mounted phone holder mounted to my  windshield, but the problem has always been where to mount that second phone! Not only that, I transcribe things via audio on my second phone and have in the past held it to get the right position for a clear audio transcription. Now I have the second phone mounted to my visor and it puts it in the perfect spot to record my voice and keep the phone in a good place so it doesn't get lost. my only complaint is that when I need to use the visor I have to remove the phone and try to remount it. It really works best with the visor up in my car. The swivel doesn't lend itself to good visibility when the visor is in use. Overall though I LOVE this mount and wouldn't want to be without it.
Why does it say +sticker first of all? There is no sticker that came with them. Second they are way too touch you tap them and they will flicker or not work. Dont think the circuit these lights are wired in is very stable.
I've got a GO Power Solar cell and I wanted to reduce the power requirements of my trailer.  I bought and installed a set of these on my exterior lights.  They  are easy to install and produce as much or more light than the bulbs that were replaced.  Just check the number on the bulb in your fitting and order an LED that will fit the light.
Replacing the standard light bulbs with the 68 SMD LED lights from EZ Motoring is working out great. I have done this  in 8 main locations  in our cougar trailer.  Over the bed area I went to a  36 SMD as I did not want the brightness that the 69 SMD puts out.
Very Bright and Very White. Not much Blue hue at all. I'm using them in the footwells of my Eclipse and they light up EVERYTHING! Light is dispersed evenly all the way around. I'll update as far as longevity goes. I've had them for almost 2 months now and they are still goign strong.
Not only was this cheaper than the national RV supply store but this product uses far less energy in our motorhome. They are a bit brighter than the old school bulbs too.
BRIGHT!! I can see so well at night! I definitely recommend these LEDS. They are constructed well. Very good output.
FINALLY a bright enough LED that is useful in our RV!  This appears to me to be equal to a small 40-60 watt incan bulb, VERY bright!
I purchased a couple of these bulbs for my 2014 Jayco Fifth wheel to replace the 921 &#34;hot lights&#34; in an attempt to save power during dry camping. So far the bulbs have performed well with no failures, they are about 80-85% of the brightness of the hot lights but draw a small fraction of the power. The two bulbs I purchased matched in color unlike some of the other LED's sold on amazon. They are fairly blue in color.
I installed these little guys in the dome light of my '97 Expedition and, although they are not significantly brighter, they make it easier to read a map as the light is seems to improve the contrast.
They look fine for a few minutes after turning them on, but then they turn a very undesirable shade of purple-ish blue.  I ordered four (two packs of two) and all of them did this.  In contrast, the 42-SMD model works great.  I replaced all the bulbs in my camper with those (about 16 total), have been running them for hours, and they put out a much more pleasant white light.  The brightness of the 42-SMDs is about the same as the 68-SMDs anyway, if not a bit brighter.
I used this power port on my boat to supply power to my on board battery charger.  Installation is simple and the design is well built.  The rubber plug has many ridges to assure a water tight seal.  It appears to be very durable though I haven't owned it long enough to verify.  NOCO must truly believe this will last a very long time because it is backed by a 5 year warranty!
I have a small 25 foot travel trailer, and this fit the bill nicely for providing a little extra power.Installs quite easily with the right tools and caulking. It looks sturdy enough to last some time.Total of 3 inches (diameter) on the exterior with a protrusion of approx. 1/2 to 1/3 of an inch.Be aware that most heavy gauge extension cords will have to be slightly modified to fit the female end.This effort is well worth it and is easy to accomplish with a file.
I bought this plug to use in conjunction with a new block heater I installed on my car. I dont know about you, but i hate the dangling block heater cord on the front of cars, not to mention if you dont seal it back up, the plug rusts. I used this to hide the cord inside my bumper. I drilled a hole up under the lower air dam, and installed it there. Now i just reach up under the front bumper, flip open the very sealed cover, and put in the extension cord. When you unplug the extension cord in the morning, you just flip the seal back closed and you cant see anything. Clean looks, tight weather sealing, simple.
This is a must for any 120 plug in accessory for your rig. I installed it on my front bumper and wired it to an on board battery charger and battery blanket. Makes life so much easier instead of popping the hood every time. I absolutely love it. Makes it look professional.
Very simple. I mounted this plug to the vent door on my enclosed. Allows me to run chargers to maintain batteries in the toys without powering the trailer.
I have used several similar products in the past, and this one has the best design I have found.  Most other products require you to hand wire the our AC cord to the receptacle.  This one has an integrated extension cord, so installation takes seconds.  All you need is a hole saw, and your done.  The mounting screws are included as well. Well made and durable.  Rubber cap provides a nice, watertight seal. At $13, its a steal.
Boat should have come wit this! It's so easy to just park and plug now. Excellent quality.
Easy to remove and install bike tireCome with a pair, i think last for everGood to have in your garage
These spoons are nice if you want to change your motorcycle tires yourself. They are strong yet thin allowing you to get the into the space needed to pry your tires off. It is likely a good idea to buy two sets. You really need at least 3 to do the job so two sets would give you a spare.
I really like these tire irons -- they are well designed, just the right size and very strong.  I had a stubborn tire that caused me to put a LOT of force on one of these irons.  I thought for sure I'd bend it (I would have bet I bent it) -- but I didn't!  I was very pleasantly surprised.  If I lost these I'd immediately buy another pair.  Don't waste time looking anymore, buy these.  Highly recommend.
Great durable irons. Light but still very strong.These are my second set of irons - lost the last ones during a recent move.The are strong and light enough to carry on my motorcycle all the time.Great Product, Fast Shipping and Great sales experience.
I changed my motorcycle tires this past weekend, and these were a necessity. The 11 inch length was perfect as well. I have a 15 inch rear wheel and an 18 inch front wheel. Shorter irons wouldn't have provided enough leverage, and longer irons would probably have been unnecessary, though still useful.I do have a tip though: buy two packs, and save yourself some trouble. If you've researched working on your tires much, you may have come across the tip to use three irons. I only used two. It's doable. But there are several instances when it would've helped to leave two in place, and use a third to make the next advance. I struggled a bit at these times, but did manage to get the rubber on with just two.
These tire irons worked great. I've replaced several sport bike tires with this set and a little elbow grease. Nifty.
bought these for my 5th wheel and I just love them. They are bright and never get hot. the cost was very good as well. arrived well packaged
If you want a bright and white LED bulb, this is your ticket.  I use these in the bathroom of the RV as I like to be awakened and revitalized there.  They are longer than the standard bulb, and actually touch the cover, but don't be alarmed, they don't distort it and they surely don't get warm enough to damage the cover or fitting.  Highly recommend these bulbs if you like a white and bright room.
Used this on RV porch light, super bright and white, simple to use, great replacement to bulb. easy to change
These use about 0.25 Amps at 13v and are the brightest BA15s LED lights I have used.  These stay very cool.  I use these outside to run all night.  If you need lots of light and plan on using them often these are the 12v leds to get.
very bright, works fine, light is bright and fine. works very well, love it. thanks again for such a great bulb.
I bought two of these for my Sears Craftsman tractor!The tractor had halogen 1156 boules that can be used to illuminate the area in front of the tractor.  I use my LT1000 for mowing and plowing snow. Since there are times I plow at night, illumination is important for both safety and so I can see!  There are 2 boules in the hood that have a reflective sheet behind them. The boules are covered with a clear plastic lense.So I do find these to be brighter (noticeably) than the standard 1156 boules. The LEDs have a purer white with a slight blue tint that is pleasing to the eye. The only issue is that they are longer than the standard boules. They're not a lot longer but, it's enough that these make contact with the cover.  Since LEDs don't get hot, this isn't an issue.Remember that the energy consumption of LEDs is less than their standard equivalent so, I'm using less of the generated power and therefore not taxing the tractors battery.I recommend these without hesitation and will seek other applications where I can switch to LED
Bought this for our RV.  The light over the table is the only &#34;oddball&#34; sized light (the others are all wedge base).  These produce a very bright clean light. (the fixture uses two bulbs) I do not notice any blue tint, just pure white.
Weak implementation of a mediocre design.
My dodge pickup was very difficult to see out of at night through the rear glass.  I had installed other backup lights in the bumper, but still didn't have enough light.  While looking at the lights at night from the exterior, there was a significant difference in color and brightness between the OEM 1156 bulbs, and the other lights I installed which were LED lamps and very white.  I ordered these bulbs hoping they would fit, and they DID !  Although the glass bulb of an 1156 is 1/2 the length of these bulbs (meaning the led section of this bulb is 2X the length of the 1156) these still fit inside my lens housing PERFECTLY.  And MAN ARE THEY BRIGHT !White-ish to a blue light, but that's perfect for me, because it allows me to see when I'm backing up, and  others to see me as well..Hopefully they have a very long life expectancy as they claim...
These little fuses sure are cheap, but they do the job and that's what counts.  I bought these to use in my Toyota truck so I always have a handful of spares onhand.  The only thing to mention about these is that they do sit a little bit tall when pushed all the way in, so make sure your fuse panel has a little clearance between its lid and the back of these fuses.  Give yourself about 1/4&#34; extra space than the shortie fuses and you'll be fine.
I had no assortment of mini fuses, and when I was adding some fused taps for misc electrical mods I had to pick some up. These were by far cheaper then anything I could find at a local auto store or ebay. And so far I've had no issues with them. I've used 4 for adding tap-a-fuse and inline fuses, and replaced 2 in my car's interior fuse box. Haven't had an issue with any of these that I've put in so far. The only thing I wish these had was a case. I dropped the box these came in and they flew everywhere out of the bags. I would've gladly paid an extra buck or two to have a cheap plastic divider case come with this. I'll just have to keep my eye out at Harbor Freight for something that'll work.
Not much to expect.  I do wish i got the kit that had dividers.  This just comes in a cheap small box with the fuses in zip-lock bags.  Cant beat it for the price.
I replaced two fuses on my truck because of an upgrade with my highbeam lights (HID from halogen)...the spike from the start of my kit I bought was over 10 amps (13.2) so I replaced it with a 15amp fuse and it works so far....happy with my purchase
Not much to say other than they came on time and were a good deal for alot of mini fuses.Around here a small amount of fuses cost big bucks but getting them on-line is a better deal so that's what I did.
This is a great little kit to have on hand. Fuses are colored and labeled. Keep it in your toolbox because you will need them. I would recommend to anyone looking to have a little storage a automobile fuses.
My daughter needed a fuse for her Escape, so I went to the local NAPA store to pick one up. It was 50 cents. No big deal. So when I saw this on Amazon for 120 pcs for 8 bucks, that's only 6 cents each.  I figure we will have enough fuses to last a lifetime!!Would have given it 5 stars, but for the fact that the fuses are color coded and not marked with the size.
These small mini blade fuses are the size used in many late model autos such as the Hyundai line.  The assortment covers all the most used fuses and is way less money than the local auto parts store.  I purchased these when the local auto parts store charged me $4.00 for 5 fuses of one size.  I don't see any difference between the 5 for 4 fuses at the local parts store and this box of fuses.  This is a much better value.
These are great, nice quality, If you look at the fuses it shows the type of fuse engraved on the top.The filament gets bigger with the bigger fuse ( they are not all the same like the cheap ones)A+ box.A+ in general.Look at my submitted customer pictures for EXACTLY what you get.
It's an item you hope you'll never need, but feel good about having. After looking at the choices for mini-fuse assortments, this seemed to fit my needs the best. The cost is only around 7 cents per fuse. It comes in a small, rather sturdy cardboard box with closure tabs, barely larger than a cigarette pack. Keep it in your car, stow it in your glovebox, door pocket or anyplace it will stay dry. Fuses of the same rating are individually contained in tiny separate zip-lock bags. Originally I thought of buying a compartmented plastic box, but decided to keep them in the compact original package to minimize rattling. For as often as you might need a fuse, it's no trouble to find its little baggie. Most other assortments come in a blister pack that, once it's opened, becomes almost useless for storage.The fuse colors reasonably match the color guide on the box.  ON THE ONES I RECEIVED, ATOP EACH FUSE IS MOLDED THE AMP RATING, not marked with color ink or paint, but still visible. There is no fuse-removal tool in the kit, but most fuse panels contain a tool, possibly stored in the lid of the fuse box. If not, a long-nose pliers works well. Before ordering, be sure your fuse panel actually uses mini fuses. Both of our cars, a 2006 Lincoln Town Car and a 2006 Mercury Grand Marquis have only mini fuses in the panel located beneath the left side of the dashboard. I have not yet checked on the overall height of the fuse to be sure the fuse box lid will fit over it. One of the reviews mentions this possibility.The assortment contains the following quantity/amp rating of the seven different amp values:30/15 amp, 25/10 amp, 25/20 amp, 10/5 amp, 10/7.5 amp, 10/25 amp, 10/30 amp.I gave it 4 stars only because I haven't had to replace any fuses yet. Happy about that.
I picked up 2 of these to replace the PIAA fog lights I have installed in my aftermarket plate steel off-roading bumper.  I really needed a 3&#34; light housing, but the mount tabs in my bumper allowed me to make some adjustments and get these 4&#34; lights to fit perfectly behind the fog light holes.  I used my existing wiring because these lights have such a low current draw.  Factory lighting is sufficient to power these.I must say, these are actually too bright to use as everyday running fogs.  They have a very wide flood pattern which I tried to aim down but the spread is just too wide.  But, off road at night these things are AMAZING.  Street signs light up blindingly bright at over 100 yards away.  Shadows are filled in, and I can confidently go on tricky trails at night.  They light up wide to the sides, too, so I can see around corners much better than before on the trails.They put off a very white light.  Not blue, not yellow.  But WHITE.  The housing on these lights is some of the most solid I have ever seen in fog lights, too.  Strong stainless steel hardware/bolts/brackets seem to be built to last through lots of trail abuse.  They mount in tight and don't shake at all.If you need a running light on an off roader, these are amazing for the price.  I plan to put 2 more of the square ones on the bed rack of my truck to have as utility lights, too.  Easy to install, and they put off far more light than I was expecting.  And I'm a light-loving freak who is easily disappointed.  These made lots of my 4x4 friends very jealous.
Bright, low wattage, easy to install on a light bar or bull bar, and they are waterproof. What else do you need? I know they will last longer than a halogen light and they are cheaper than most off road lights with less lumens.
Well for the time being they were very bright and would buy again which I will be since mine were stolen.
I wasn't expecting a lot, even with the good reviews, because good LED lights are kinda hit and miss these days. But the price was great so I thought I'd give them a shot.I am extremely pleased with them. They are heavier than I expected. The shell is all aluminum and has a good solid feel to it. Nothing about these lights feels "cheap" in your hands.I temporarily hooked them up in the mid-afternoon sun, very bright even in full daylight. After dark I did another temporary test. Just one light lit up the whole area, and both of them was just really bright!I got them to use on the back of my truck's headache rack to light up the bed and surrounding area, and they will most certainly work perfectly for that task.Considering buying another set for some side flood work lights!If they last as long as they are supposed to, they should outlast my truck and I will be most happy with them!Edit 03/19/2013  Decided to buy a second set after all. These make great work lights around my truck! Tried them out tonight way out in the country where it was pitch dark, lit the area up around the truck nicely! Posted some pictures.
I mounted a pair of these to the front bumper of my Jeep and wired them to a toggle switch inside (through a 30 amp relay) labeled &#34;off road lights&#34;. They are bright and provide the extra lighting to the front that the headlights cannot during off road adventures. The light is mostly a flood beam so I have great visibility to both the left and right. The light project approximately 100 meters very well. beyond that they are not as effective. But for slow off roading they are perfect.
It's nice to have received these lights with an all metal case around them.  None of that plastic that collapse from being over tightened during installation.  These are pretty heavy for there size.  Don't mistake these for fog or driving lights these put off more of a utility light pattern, not a directed path of light.  They are however bright and light up the area very well.Also be aware that you get the lights, mounting bracket and wires protruding from the light, nothing else.  You will need to order a wiring kit unless you have one laying around somewhere.  Or at the very least some wire, fuse holder and fuse, power switch and connectors.They are not as pretty and attractive as some lights on the market, but they will hold up to some abuse and light the way.
These lights are amazing, easy to install a long as you have some wiring to hook to. Bright, doesn't even cover how much light they give. It's truly amazing how much they light the woods and roads on my RZR 570, I would wreck amend these lights to anyone who is off road or any dark road....  Michael
Each of the two included lights puts out 1550 lumens.  They don't have any hot-spots and throw out to the sides very well. They are as good as daylight for about 30 yards and then fade off pretty fast. 75 yards is about the very max range. The cut off is smooth. They give out super white light. For slow moving these are ideal. I've got them on my lawnmower. There good if your traveling about 10mph.They almost totally eliminate shadows in the first 30 yards. When cutting the grass it makes it a bit hard to judge the height of the grass.The glass is nice and solid. The IP67 dust proof ,water proof, rating sets them apart from others on the market.There are no instructions in the box. I used a double tap fuse to have them go off with the key. Your also going to want an inline fuse, and a relay.
Love my new car trash bag/ I bought several till I found the right one and the right fit for my new car/ it expands well without falling downevery time you put trash in/ Every bag i bought was too light in construction causing the bag to move and fall every where when i used it/ great product/ great construction/ great price/ it works ! truly it does...
This is a nicely made bag to help keep the litter in my car under control.  Had no problem hooking it around the headrest behind the seat.  It is a sturdy bag, but I wish it would stay open a little better than it does.  It seems like when I am ready to put something in the bag, it tends to close a little bit making it harder to place trash in it.  All in all, it is a nice bag and keeps my car litter free.
Just like other reviewers stated, the metal frame is a weak point and after few usages it started to crack and break down.Also because the bottom doesn't have an insert, it doesn't stay put properly unless you have something heavier in it.I liked the size of the opening and the bag itself.I do like the idea but the execution needs some tweaking.I guess I got what I paid for, but would have preferred to a pay a bit more for a better quality product.
I had a little higher quality expectations for this item, but it is what it is and will get the job done.  The stitching around the seams is not great.  There were many loose threads hanging off of mine.  I took a lighter and burned them down.  In addition, the buckle on the strap was placed on in reverse which would cause the strap to twist around the head rest.  I had to cut the strap, flip the buckle, and burn the strap's edges to prevent it from fraying.  After a little work on my own part, I was happy enough to put this in my car, but the quality could be better.  It is ultimately just a trash bag though...Im not sure how much I could have really expected.
works well. here are my thoughts.- I use grocery store fresh produce bags in this. a bit tight but no leakage.- the open/close feature is ok. i leave half open most of the time. it is not spring loaded so you can adjust opening any size- holds a decent amount. probably about 4 coke cans approx. best for small items.- seems sturdy and durable.All in all, i like my purchase. with kids, having a trash can in the car is huge to stay on top of the clutter. pleased with purchase.
I love using microfiber, and was excited to receive these. My original impression was that they were a bit thinner than the ones that I had been using, but they were also just a bit larger than the ones I had purchased at the store. I deducted a star for this.These work nicely in cleaning, dusting, and I even grab them to use as a washcloth when I want something extra gentle.I expected them to be a bit more "dull" in color, but the colors are bright and cheerful.Very nice "basic" product.
I was right to settle for this product instead of going for some premium brand ones. My car has some glossy surfaces that attract a lot of dust. I keep one of these in my glove compartment and wipe those surfaces clean with these cloths. I also keep one next to my computer screen now. My only problem is that I have too much of it. I think it might take a few years before I could go through all 24 cloths.
Not high enough quality to use on your car's paint, but pretty nice microfibers for cheap that you can use almost anywhere else, such as wheels, interior, plastics, etc.
The bag that came in for these rags seemed like there were more than 36 rags. I love to keep my rides clean and shinny and these mircofibers just fills the bill and at a bargain price,
I purchased these cloths because my rags left streaks and lint. I would recommend these to anyone who needs microfiber towels.
Just like any others at a great price...save yourself some monies, jusy none more words it said so I am now done.
Good cloths for cleaning autos and household items.I've never used any sorry Microfiber towels.Some are more plush than others but all will do the job.Generally speaking, the thicker they are, the longer they last and the more they will cost.For the price these cloths are good.For just cleaning our everyday drivers and two show cars, I'm lucky to wear out several a year.We even wash and also dry with the same cloths and for the price you can't beat them.Show Car Guys All Purpose Microfiber Towels 16" X 16"- One Of The Best Microfiber Cleaning Cloths There Is.

These are an absolute must for maintain a home. These towels have a slightly abrasive to the touch but gentle on surfaces texture that picks up everything from wet spills to dust. Since they are made of microfiber they wear like iron and as they get a little softer with age this does nothing to erode their effectiveness.I have used these as dishcloths, shamies (They are great for not only wiping down a car but for wiping down tile showers and bathrooms which is crucial for keeping away mold, water spots and just keeping things clean.) dusting (they pick up everything without cleaners or wax.) hand towels. Afterwards throw them in the washer & dryer, nothing could be easier.Having a stack of these in your house should cut down on your use of paper towels. A pack of 24 should easily last a lifetime. As these towels are 12x18 they are a great size for everything you need and you might eve go a head a quarter a couple of them and use them as dishrags.
I just received my packet of 24 and they look amazing! They feel way better then the ones at Autozone! I was purchasing the ones at autozone 2 for 5 dollars (packet of 5). Doing the math I was like wow I could've tried these a long time ago. So I decided to purchase one and im very happy will purchase more. I find it interesting how they come in 3 variety of colours pretty cool! Try it! Also the quality of the microfiber cloths is decent, there are no threads loose, holes, or uneven portions. The edges are sewn well to prevent unraveling, which can be a problem with these types of cloths. Overall, these are much cheaper than the ones I can buy locally one at a time, but feel and work like the same quality. Cheers!
Decent sized microfiber towels. After giving them a first wash .. Wash the colors separately at first otherwise your white ones will become green-ish. I use a lot of ammonia because I have tons of mirrors and an "old fashioned" glass tube TV ... they worked great. I simply used a new cloth when the old one got clogged up with dirt. Obviously these cloths can be used multiple times after washing.Didn't want to go too rough on the towels but I used some Krud Kutter cleaner to try to get rid of some stubborn linoleum stains. After allowing the Krud Kutter to sit for 10 minutes or so ... wipe, wipe, wipe away ... did a good job of getting rid of the stains.KRUD KUTTER KR32 Tough Task Remover, 32-OunceLater I found the towels excellent for drying dishes. I didn't notice any lint left behind by the clothes ...always a nice touch. Of course after much use the white towels will star to get grungy looking ... if that is a problem, then hide them before company comes over.Overall, a thumbs up. 24 should last awhile. Tomorrow I am going to tackle some beverage glass ring stains on a laminated table ... shouldn't be a problem ... but I'm tired (from all the cleaning today). Just wanted to let people know about the towels (and Krud Kutter ... bought on Amazon works great).
The cloths I got were fantastic, unlike some of the other reviewers. The hem stitching on them is VERY soft, so there are definitely no issues there. All of my cloths were clean, but they can be a bit linty before they're washed. I just washed them on a cold water cycle, with extra rinse (NO fabric softener!!), and let them air dry. They're perfect as can be!
Microfiber is made from strands/threads that can be 100th the diameter of a human hair. They have a positive charge that actually attracts dust and dirt particles. The fine threads are ultra absorbent and hold 7 times their own weight in fluids. Despite their amazing softness, the tiny, thin fibers shred dirt off surfaces so effectively that they often eliminate the need for any toxic cleaning chemicals.  Around the house they're great for cleaning glass without ammonia, granite countertops without chemicals, or messy sprays to clean wood surfaces.  I have been using these for several years in cleaning, waxing, polishing and detailing my car without the worry of micro scratches and swirls on the paint.  In fact, I don't allow any other type of cloth to touch my car. After washing the car using these, then drying the car using these, then applying wax with these and removing the excess residue, a clean one can be used last to polish the car to a brilliant shine.  Much more effective than terry cloth or conventional rags.  Besides their amazing abilities to do so many things well, it's comforting to know that microfiber is produced from left over waste products of refining petroleum that would normally have found their way into landfills. These sold by Amazon, come in 3 different coolers, so they can be reserved for designated tasks based on their color; the blue ones only to apply products on your car, reserving the whites to remove residue and also polish the surface, and the yellow ones, say for household cleaning applications.  I have bought several orders of this product from Amazon over time, who as usual seem to offer the most value and cannot recommend them highly enough. I'd give 6 stars if I could.
these cloths are nice.  cheap enough to throw away or possibly wash.  i use them when i detail my car's rims....personally i throw them away when i'm done.
I love microfiber you can use it for so many differant things and these amazon towels are great!! I use them for alot of my soft cleaning and even polishing and they work great and hold up real good. If you want clean glass use microfiber cloths they get things streak free and when they get dirty just throw them in the wash and they are good to go.
I use microfiber clothes for a lot of different things, but I mostly use them for automotive cleaning and detailing.Over the years I've collected a large number of microfiber cloths and even paid a rather large sum of money for 'specialty' microfiber cloths to only experience sub par results. To my amazement AmazonBasics Microfiber cloths perform on par with even the best of them, but for only a fraction of the cost.They pick up and hold onto dirt, water, wax residue, etc. just like my other towels.They are large enough that I can fold them over several times while polishing and cleaning a car. This results in me using only a half dozen during a detailing job which saves on cleanup and laundering later down the road.Once soiled and caked with dirt, I useMicro-Restore's Detergentand it gets them nice and clean and keeps them from losing their microfibering goodness.The ONLY complaint is that they are rather 'thin' compared to other brands of microfiber cloths. I easily looked past that because of their cost (about 50 a towel).These will work awesomely for quite a while and are cheap enough that I wont feel bad when it comes to throwing them away when they become too worn, damaged, soiled, or stained.
These are decent basic cloths made of a blend of 90% polyester and 10% polyamide.  While they feel fine for most every day cleaning tasks, when compared to a more premium quality cloth like the Quickie Dusting and Polishing cloth (which is 85% polyester and 15% nylon), the difference in both thickness and softness is pretty noticeable.  The Quickie is both thicker and softer. On the other hand, it also costs four time as much, so that bump in quality comes at a price.  I recommend a cloth like the premium Quickie for interior dusting and cleaning of delicate surfaces and video screens.  These Amazon cloths (as well as other cheaper quality cloths, including Quickie's own branded 24-pack) are better suited for glass, non-delicate surface dusting, car washing, and other cleaning chores.  They're roughly the size of a hand towel but very absorbent, so they can also be used for drying vehicles or other large surfaces.  Soiled cloths must be cleaned by washing in warm water and air drying.  It specifically says do not tumble dry.  They also suggest washing the cloths in cold water before use, presumably to extract stray fibers that may otherwise end up leaving a fuzz on your surfaces.
Smaller than expected, but pretty thin...noticing plenty of lint too.  I don't think they're worth the savings....I'd rather pay more and have a much better product.
I'd really love these towels if they didn't have the stupid tag on them.  Also, curiously, a lot of them are already dirty when they arrive, despite being sealed.
We buy these for polishing at our body shop and we got through quite a lot. They stand up to repeated washings and are cheaper than buying them from O'Reilly or Costco.
Basically what you expect out of a good microfiber cloth.Used 4 of these to remove wax from my car and they did a great job
These microfiber cloths are pretty standard quality. Great for doing just about anything, and are quite cheap.  I mostly use them for car purposes, though they're great around the house too.  They seem to be pretty much the same thing as you see everywhere else, the assorted colors are very nice.
These towels look perfectly fine- even if they are a bit thin.  However, they arrived in an unmarked white envelope which wasn't sealed.  That's great, but they've been stored open in a dusty warehouse for how long?  That's no better than my rags.
Excellent product for the auto detailer.  They do exactly what a microfiber should.  They are cheap, reusable or disposable and a must have for the person who likes keeping their car looking prime
I have been using regular cotton based cloth (rags) along with the Zymol paste wax and was it ever a pain to polish the car(s).  Bought these on a whim and what a difference!  Took only two of these to do my 2011 Edge and cut the amount of time required by 1/2!
I purchased these to wash my car.  I had at some point purchased some super cheap micro fiber towels from I think Big Lots and they were fantastic.  They don't sell them anymore and so I got these to replenish my supply, and I just don't think the quality is as good.  But they do the job and I'm happy with them.
There are so many products that tell you to clean with a &#34;lint-free cloth.&#34; These fit the bill, and you can't beat the value. They come in three colors: blue, white, and yellow. They're about 12&#34; x 12&#34; square.
I always seem to need a microfiber cloth these days for electronics and automobiles amongst other things. This was a great deal and they are good cloths. I would buy again if I needed them!
I found these right when I was in the middle of unpacking and setting up a kitchen - FANTASTIC for drying dishes and cleaning up spills. Also, even without cleaning products, these did a great job taking care of dust and grime in the kitchen. These are higher quality than some other similar priced microfiber cloths I found at a dollar store... and this kind of quantity is helpful. You'll never run out.
Come on, buy them. They are CHEAP and they are nice quality! Buy a 24 pack and use some in the garage, some in the kitchen, some for cleaning, some for ANYTHING. Really nice cloths.
highly recommend and well made. Stay soft even after multiple washes. Try washing with atsko sport wash it leaves no residue behind and rinses clean the first time.
The best reason for getting this value pack of 24 micro fiber cleaning cloths is that you have something handy that you can use but then throw away if needed. We all know those jobs that husbands are children do like detailing a car, or cleaning up some nasty mess and the mother tells you to just throw the hand towel away, it is too stained or nasty to put in the wash or reuse. These towels are durable enough to use daily when needed but to also use for that job that will result in the imminent death of the towel.
So many people have been talking up microfiber, I figured I would give it a try.  I love these microfiber clothes.  They seem to be good quality.  I am not an expert on microfiber clothes, so my opinion and experience is limited. I have also purchased some Meguiar's clothes as well.  The quality seems about the same. However, I can tell you I used these clothes all the time now and cannot believe its taken me this long.  Highly recommend.
You can never have too many cleaning cloths. Typically I use rags made from old sheets and t-shirts, but when I had the opportunity to try these microfiber cloths I jumped at it. Let me tell you, they are great. They pick up and hold much more dust and dirt than any rag, and they are gentle on all surfaces. So I big fat resounding 5 stars to this product!
they're basic microfiber clothes, with tags on them... which is bad.  They're a BIT too small, but it's what i paid for, and a lot of them.  I was aiming to dry my car off with these and they do get a lot of water up but only so much, kinda, a little.. actually.  They're good for other quick small drying needs.  they kinda feel cheaply made.
Very good for value. Be sure to follow the initial cleaning instructions! If you are using them for around the house or automotive purposes make you do not use detergents this will degrade the softness!
I'm a bit of a car fanatic and very careful about what products I use on my cars.  I took a box of these bug splatter sponges with me to a Ferrari club rally to put them to the test.  After a full day of rallying on the back roads of northern New Hampshire and Vermont, the front of my car was covered with bugs -- as was the fate of my fellow club members.  Upon our return to the hotel, most of us were out in the parking lot cleaning our cars.  Most were using detailing spray and paper towels to remove the bugs... at least until they saw me using the Meguiar's Bug Splatter Sponge.  It wasn't quite "one wipe and they're all gone", but pretty darn close.  I didn't have to work hard at all and 95% of the bugs were gone in just a minute or two.  I then went over the front of the car with detailing spray and buffed it to a just like new rosso corsa shine .  I ended up giving away the other sponges in the box to other club members... but only after they came begging.  This is a good product that really works and I'll be buying more.  You can achieve the same result without it, but not without a lot more work.  Me?  I'd rather be driving or sitting in the hotel bar talking about driving.
It isn't bug season around here so I used this on a car that had bird poop, mud spatter and sap on it as that is what similar products say that they can address.I've used Meguiar's auto products for years and have always found them to do a good job across their range, however, other brands are occasionally superior for individual specialties. (See: "Guru Reports" for rankings, if you can find it. It was a publication by a person who did comparisons in actual long term use, ten years ago.)This product is five little sponges sealed in foil pouches. One side is rough, the other smooth. This worked as well as "Purple Power Bug Wash and Wax" and "Turtle Wax Bug and Tar Remover" and the rough sponge did make it easier to attack the various dirt. However, none of them did a decent job of removing the sap and the rough sponge was not an advantage with the sap. I surmise that the sponge will be an advantage in removing dried on bugs.The Meguiar's needs to be washed off after application, the others only need to be polished after they've dried.
How is this disposable sponge better than a regular one?  It isn't.  That's the problem.I suppose I could see leaving one of these in your glove box, just in case the OCD kicks in, and ya just GOTTA get that bird poop off NOW!!!  But it leaves a foamy residue that needs to be rinsed off.  And at that point, I may as well just use kleenex and a dab from my water bottle.It's small, very sudsy and does a mediocre job of washing off bird poop.  And if the bird poop happens to be large, then this tiny little thing ain't gonna be what I grab for; not unless I want poop on my fingers.  Eeeew!  I'll stick with a wad of paper towel, or a couple fast-food napkins; thanks much.It works ok, but certainly not well enough to justify an ongoing expense of 10 bucks a box.  Meh, don't bother. Just another overpriced gimmick.
These disposable pads work well at getting the bugs off, and they are simple to use. Just remove from the package and start cleaning. One negative is the fact that they dry out very quickly in the heat. To combat this issue, my husband rewet the pads which allowed them to be used longer. 1 pad worked for the front of a GMC Sierra that was covered in bugs. It took 2 pads to complete the entire truck. After using the pad, the truck then needed to be sprayed off to remove the cleaner. One thing to note is that this is a messy process as the cleaner in the pad gets all over your hands during the cleaning process. The good thing is that it did not irritate my husband's hands. His hands just needed to be washed after using the pad.
It's spring... and spring means I can't see out my windshield. Jumped at the chance to review these sponges by Meguiar's, because I've used some of their other car cleaning products and found them to be great, if pricey.First off - while the sponges are quite saturated, one wasn't enough to thoroughly clean the windshield on my mom's SUV.Secondly - I had to apply SO MUCH elbow grease to effectively get rid of the bugs, I felt I might have been better off with something like a Mr. Clean sponge. This "specialty two-sided sponge" wasn't much more than a microfiber disc with a little padding in the middle.Thirdly - what's in the sponges? I'd like to know. Didn't smell like much more than windex. In which case I could do this myself.
I am slowly getting away from Meg's products as there are much better alternatives out there.  I have some favorites I consistently use, but this will not be one of them.For the results I got from using a pad on a moderately bug splattered front bumper, it managed to accomplish the job but with much effort (I have found a lot of Meg's products require a LOT of effort).  It accomplished the job, but barely.  There are other alternatives.  Pass this one by, as there is no magic in removing bug splatter.  A bit overpriced, but you are paying for convenience of a single use sponge and cleaner pre-packed and ready to use.  Perhaps best used in situations where you are traveling. Not worth the money spent.
The water in my neighborhood is really hard.  It leaves spots on my car that can't be removed by other car polishes.  It still takes a bit of elbow grease (effort) and some patience.  But this Meguiar's Water Spot Remover eventually restores the shine to my car - when other products and paste waxes fail.This stuff also works great for whitening, polishing and removing scratches from my yellowed headlight lenses.  (My car is ten years old.)  Nothing makes a car look older than yellowed and foggy headlight lenses.  This doesn't make them totally white again.  But they are definitely lighter and clearer than they've been in a while.  It makes my car look years younger.  (New headlight lenses are really expensive, I checked.)  This is a product I highly recommend.For removing lighter water spots, I use Meguiar's Ultimate Quik Wax spray instead.  Just spray and wipe.  Enjoy.Meguiar's Ultimate Quik Wax 15.2oz Liquid Spray Bottle.
I have baked on water spots on my vehicles, but I generally don't worry too much about that. However, this made it easy to remove them and increase the shine on my vehicles making them look brand new. For light recent water spots I would say this is overkill... just get a spray and wipe, but for baked on, this is the way to go to save you time and get great results.
I wasn't able to get a gasoline stain off my corvette, but I was able to get some hard water stains off my SUV left from the winter rain/snow/pavement salt concoction.  Works well overall.
I was hoping for something that would easily and quickly remove water spots. While it will remove water spots that are very light, you can get the same or better results using a paste/liquid wax that has some built-in cleaning/polishing agents. The Meguiar's Water Spot Remover did not work on some water spots in one of our sinks and the water spots were fresh. I used a polishing/cleaner wax and was able to remove the water spots. I think Meguiar needs to spend more time at the company and less time out with his show. Lately I am finding that about 1/2 the Meguiar's products I buy are a waste of money and I can find a better product from a competitor. A few of Meguiar's products are really good, this is not one of them.
The Meguiar's car products have always been satisfactory for me, so I looked forward to trying their Water Spot Remover.  I tested it on a Legacy the same color as the product container and for fun on a white washing machine that somehow has plenty of water spots.Applying product by hand as I did is a little bit of work, like applying a rubbing compound. User is advised to not let the product dry, advise I followed to the letter.  After applying  the water spot remover, I removed it with several wipings with a microfiber towel.Most water spots came off with the first application. Some areas required a second rubbing with the water spot remover. The treated surfaces were shiny and smooth. Meguiar's suggests protecting the treated surfaces with their ultimate wax. I used another brand of wax with good results.Bottom line - It's a little extra work, but the results of using this water spot remover will be worth the effort for most users. Even our old washing machine now has a smooth, shiny finish.
We recently purchased a white Jaguar XJ8. It's a few years old, but still has a nice shine. We used this product on it the other day, and honestly, the car practically glows! It went on easily, and with two of us waxing the car in the garage, out of the sun, we had it done in about 45 minutes. A little elbow grease was involved, but that's all part of it. Our next project is our 2006 Jeep Commander, which is also white. I'm anxious to see how it works on that as well, because although it has a good shine, it is not in as good a shape as the Jaguar. Very pleased.
Meguiar's  has now got my attention. I have bought some other product from them. Out of five,  four of them worked for me. Love the color of this. Didn't think this wax would improve the look. I was looking for something that was white wax. Glad I got this one. I have a shiny white vehicle. Not a dull one. The price was great as well.
What else can I say. This product is really top of the line. Even though it is called White Wax, it does a wonderful job on my light grey Camry. Rubbed out several spots that, fortunately, were not dented from parking lot jerks. Great product and I always use Mugular's products.
I couldn't wait to try this wax on my white Nissan; the idea behind the wax is really great. Unfortunately, after using the wax, I really didn't notice anything different than if I used a good synthetic wax. Nice idea, but nothing special.
with the correct pads, you'll be able to remove mild oxidation and cleans. The product advertisement can be slightly misleading, I find the white wax is rich in polishing oil too, not as much as the black wax can carry but there. Longevity is not quite what i expected, didn't last long. Expect it to last around 4-6weeks depending on the weather too
best wax I have ever used...I have a silver explorer....and after using this wax..it looked brand new ...looked like it was repainted.....wax went on and came off with ease..............
I would have believed a &#34;white wax&#34; was advertising hype and &#34;BS&#34;.  Anyway I fell for it.Used the wax on both our cars, one a white 7 year old BMW,  the other a 14 year old British Racing Green old roadster.  Both cars are daily drivers, original paint, garage-kept. The wax absolutely made a visible difference.  It's easy on-easy off.  Doesn't require a large amount of wax.  In fact application of too much wax creates a removal problem so a light layer of wax works best.To achieve the results I washed, clayed, glazed and waxed the car. Didn't take long and I couldn't be more pleased with the end result.I'm sold and could not be more pleased.Your mileage may vary.
I have medium grade leather in my car, and it gets a lot of sun and heat during the day.  The leather is about 8 months old and is still in near mint condition.  Application of the conditioner took a hour for a 4 door sedan.  Time will tell if it helps extend the life, but it does feelt better to the touch.
I just applied the leather treatment to my Equus ultimate - which has plenty of leather.  The instructions were clear and the application and sealing were very straightforward.  i reckon i have enough product left to do the car again on another day.
Great product to clean and condition leather, whether it's new leather or older leather.My husband has tried it on both.  Helps restore older leather and protect leather that's still in good condition to extend its life.  Quality product.
I used this Gold Class Leather Sealer Treatment on the leather seats in my truck and it worked great.  First, I tested a small area to see how it would turn out.  It looked really good, so I did the entire seats.  There are only two easy steps,  First, prep the leather and that means cleaning it with the Leather Prep.  I used the cloth that came in the kit to do the prepping. Second, I applied the Leather Sealer with the sponge that also was included. I then took a clean, soft cloth and buffed the seats a little,  The seats look great!  There wasn't any lingering odor either.  My truck seats look sharp!  I will continue to use the Gold Class Leather Sealer Treatment because I like my truck to look great!  When you have an investment in a vehicle you must keep the maintenance done and this treatment is the best maintenance for my truck's interior.
The leather seats on our car are getting a little old and stained, so it was time to clean them up a bit. This leather treatment seemed just the thing. It includes a cleaner and a sealant. The instructions say to use the product on an inconspicuous spot first to test for color fastness. Since our seats are a rather light gray color, I was a little concerned. But the spot I tested looked all right, and I did the whole car.The cleaner did help, but there were some stains that stayed on the leather. When I applied the sealant, the stains became even more noticeable. So while the cleaning and sealing did make most of the seats look a lot better, the stains still stand out, even more than before. That's unavoidable, I guess.The two bottles are small, and I used more than half of the product already. So I'll need to buy more to do the car again.
Whether you are detailing your car yourself, or do detailing for a living, this is an above average quality product which provides good results.The application process is pretty straightforward.  As long as you follow the directions you can see the quality look, as well as smell the product offers.  If you are seeking a better option for your auto leather, or simply want to try a newer product, you will be pleased with the results.  I used in three of my cars, all Audi's and the leather looks outstanding.
did two cars with this and still had some left over. easy to use and comes with a microfiber towel and applicator pad. very simple and easy to you and leaves the seats looking nice and new. I used it on light gray and dark black seats and very pleased.
There seem to be a lot of car care products on the market these days.  Meguiar's is still counted among the leaders.  Their leather cleaner/sealer treatment works well; however, after trying it, I'm not convinced that it's significantly better than some of its competitors.  In fact, Griot's Garage makes a product that I prefer.  Still, though, among the more widely available leather treatment products, Meguiar's G3800 is worth a look.
Used this on a 2001 BMW 740iL with seats in very good condition. Two step process, a preclean, and a conditioner. The seats are noticeably cleaner, and appear brighter. Not shiny exactly, the finish on the leather isn't especially glossy, but nice looking.Previous cars had used some random leather conditioner from the AutoZone. This seems like a nice alternative, not ridiculously priced, and the quantity in the bottles should last a good number of treatments.
This package contains a sprayer head, which fits on the cleaner (step 1) bottle, a rather generous microfiber towel, an applicator sponge, and two small bottles of solution.First, screw on the sprayer onto the cleaner bottle. If you can't squeeze it, that is because it has a lock on it. Twist the base of it, just above the screw top, and you'll be good to go.The cleaner works well. It is (as far as I can tell) a watered-down soap solution, which isn't far away from the 10% woolite/water solution that Rolls Royce recommends for its leather.  So, not bad at all!The sealer goes on next, after the cleaner has completely dried. It is supposed to resist stains, and smells of chemicals. I'm guessing it has silicone in it.  Not bad or good, just what I think.The sealer is supposed to dry in an hour, and cure in 24, so leave plenty of time after treatment for full effect.Overall? My dealer sells something similar for $500. Of course, that also comes with a warranty, which is worth a hunk of that change. On the other hand, I bet anything this works just as well.So, I'm recommending this. Just keep in mind that it comes in fairly small bottles, so don't count on doing more than a car and a half (or two small cars) with it.Sean P. Logue, 2013
I used this on my leather briefcase that is about 9 years old and has never been cleaned. The products are easy to use although it will take some time to do a large piece, as it's best to work in small sections. The sponge applicator is pretty cheap and has a strange texture, but the microfiber cloth seems to be of nice quality and is large in size. I was surprised at the matte finish - not necessarily bad but I thought it would add more luster rather than take it away.
this product, really cleans and restores leathers smoth touch, and finally the most important thing : seal the leather for further dissaster  eg: ketchup dissaster, coca cola, etc.... i 'll recomended this kit, i love the thing that includes applicator pad and terry towel, others kits does'nt  include.
I have tried different ways of cleaning the dull plastic headlight covers from light sandpaper to rubbing compound and nothing has worked very well.  This is the first time trying a lens cleaning kit and I'm impressed.  Megular's Headlight Lens Correction Kit comes with three small light rubbing pads.  These are numbered with pads 3 and 4 on the same pad reverse side.  Starting with pad 1 wet and rub up and down.  Then side to side with pad 2 and continue the same process through pad 4.  Clean surface and use the micro cloth to apply the rubbing compound and then finish with the Megular protection compound.  All of this is included in the kit.  These are simple steps and do get results with a much clearer headlight cover.  The one caveat is that it does require some work.  You don't just put it on and wipe it off.  It requires some good old elbow grease but the results are good.  The real test will be to see how long this will last before reapplying.  Well worth getting to make those plastic headlight covers clearer again.Addendum: It has now been about a month with this on the one headlight and it still looks good.  It won't return the headlight to crystal clear new condition but it has kept it a whole lot less cloudy. (May-29-13)
Well this was a waste of time. I tried it twice and didn't get any better. And on the package it says &#34; Guaranteed to remove your oxidation or your money back. How can I get my money back? I don't know if I should try another brand.
I used Meguiar's G3700 Headlight Lens Correction kit according to the included instructions, and it did indeed improve the clarity of my 2003 Passat's headlights. It's not a cheap fix however, especially considering that one can use regular wax or even toothpaste to get the same effect. Meguiar's with it's various pads seemed to overcomplicated and extend the process. It took longer than that wax/toothpaste method too. After a treatment, the headlight covers were clearer, but not back to factory clear. All in all, I don't find this to be a necessary product where there are less expensive and quicker methods to mostly restore your headlights.~ Kort
I have always found Meguiar's products to be among the best so I was happy to test this new product.  I used this on a 1997 Accord that had oxidized headlights. Results were good but the kit should include one more sandpaper sheet.  The kit includes a protectant to apply to the newly cleaned headlights.  I used a 3m kit in the past (on a different car) which did not include a protectant and the headlights discolored again in about 6 months.  Time will tell if Meguiar's protectant keeps the headlights from oxidizing again.  Overall, this kit is fairly easy to use but I preferred using a drill with a cleaning solution (as the 3m kit had) to using sandpaper and sanding by hand. That's just my personal preference but some will prefer the convenience of this kit.
I used the Meguiar's Headlight Lens Correction kit on my 1993 mini-van. The headlights were very foggy and the lights appeared dim. The kit did not restore it to 'new' but there is a significant improvement, about 75% better. On a 20 year-old vehicle, I am pleased with this result.The cleaning process took about 45 minutes. It doesn't require any special tools, everything is included in the box. There are four types of sanding pads, a polisher and a protectant, just need to add a little water to wet the pads. Be prepared to use some muscle while scrubbing.The only improvement I can recommend is that the kit should come with extra sandpaper or larger pieces so that it can be used on more than one car. There is ample polish left over and a very nice reusable cleaning cloth included with the kit.Overall, compared to the cost of a new headlight, this is a good deal.
I personally prefer using this type of product with a drill attachment, as I think it does a better job of removing the final swirls, but I have to admit I thought this one works well without.It is typical of these products: start with relatively rough sandpaper (on a pad), and work up until you are done with the fine. Don't worry, it really works and won't hurt the plastic. Just make sure you keep the pads clean when you use them so you don't grind dirt or sand into your lens. After the final sanding, use the polish to polish out the sanding marks. The polish in this kit did a nice job in this regard and was hardly any more work than the drill attachment versions.This kit also includes a preservative final coating, which not all such products include. I would have preferred that it came in a resealable bottle rather than a open-once pack, but at least it comes with it ... this SHOULD make the lens look better longer.Will it make the lens look brand new? No. if your lens is too far gone (those just beginning to show sun damage might do better). But it will make it look good, and for my truck that is now 14 years old, it is just fine.
The lens on my headlights were definitely in need of some cleaning/polishing, so I opted to try this product. I found the directions a little confusing. They identify four pads that you use to basically sand down the lens. But the box contained three pads, two of which are the exact same number. So right from jump street I was lost. Anyway, I did the best I could to follow the directions as close as possible with what was available. After sanding back and forth, up and down, I dried the lenses and applied the PlastX special sauce. I buffed the lenses as best I could with the included polishing cloth. After completing these tedious tasks, I applied the "bonus" polish that is included in a squeeze packet.After all of this, I stood back and convinced myself that my headlights looked newer. But in all honesty, I don't really think they looked much better, and they certainly didn't reflect all of the effort I applied to do this.While this product is not very expensive, I recommend that you look for other alternatives that claim the same thing, but that take much less effort and elbow grease.
I used this on my mother's car who's head light lenses were completely cloudy. After using this, they look a lot clearer!This product was easy to use and the results were quite good. There is still a lot of the product left over however the sandpaper pieces that came with it are used so I wish they included more of those.
I like the thicker consistency and it keeps my car shinier than other brands.  Almost all car waxes are carnuba wax based, and this is no expeption.  However, the extra ingredients really help it outperform on my black car surface.
First time using wax in a tube--different to work with.  Not difficult, but different.  Covers minor scratches very well. Hard to buff off, so do small sections at a time. I didn't use a buffer with this first application but will probably do so next time. Doesn't clean up water spots, which most waxes have been able to do for me in the past. Not sure how many washings it will endure before needing to re-wax.I have used the pricier Zymol for black cars.  Zymol works much better.  If price is a big factor, then Meguiar's is a good choice.  I balked at first when seeing the price tag for Zymol but you truly do get what you pay for in this particular instance.So, overall, this wax did a good job.  I will update my review once I see how many washings I can get out of waxing.
Ehhhh, what can I say, it's black paste.  There isn't a &#34;wow&#34; factor here and the instructions kind of scare me about getting it on anything but black paint.  So far not impressed.  It comes in a paste tube which cracks easy and allowed oil from the wax to leak out.  Appication is easy as usual and it gives a good decent darker shine.  Not what I would call a &#34;wet shine&#34;.  I think the idea here is that this will cover scratches or swirls on black paint; not what happens in reality.  Not feeling this one folks.
I've used and liked a variety of Meguiar's products over the years and have rarely been disappointed. This wax is turning into one of my all-time favorites.It applies very easily provided the car is in the shade (black cars plus sunlight = a surface that's way too hot for any wax). I'm especially pleased with the packaging - it comes in a tube much the same as toothpaste. The wax itself is gray colored and thick, and the tube makes it very easy to dispense without any mess or wastage. Very well done!It can be applied with a buffer, but I just applied it by hand using the included applicator (a round piece of foam). Very easy to apply.It buffs off easily after letting ir dry to a haze. I used a couple of microfiber cloths, turning them frequently and starting a new cloth when the old one got loaded with wax. I then did a final buff with a fresh micro fiber cloth. (While Mcguiar also makes the cloths, I get mine from Sam's Club - very inexpensive, and decent quality).The shine was tremendous - this is why I got a black car! It looked so good I didn't want to take it out of the garage to keep it clean.I can't speak to the longevity of the shine or the protection as of yet, but other Meguiar waxes have provided me with a very long-lasting shine. I'll update the review should this not prove to be durable.If you have a black car, get this. The shine will not disappoint, and you don't have to work very hard to get the job done. Highly recommend!
Way happy with this stuff. Really easy to apply with a DA and leaves a wonderful mirror like coat. I'd imagine the chemical guys setup for black cars is better but this stuff is like 1/4 the price and 1/2 the effort being that it is only a wax not a glaze and wax. Works better than turtle wax or any synthetic I've used.
I was hoping that this wax would have enough pigment in it to cover up some tiny scratches in my shiny black Equus, seeing as how it is intended for shiny black cars.  Well, that won't work as the product is just gray and the white of the scratches just shines right through.  Now, back to its intended purpose of waxing shiny black cars.It does a good job, is easy to apply and the instructions are clear.
The Best for Black PERIOD. I have some swirls, I am going to order the swirl remover and see how it works also...A must for all Black Car Owners!
I am not a specialist by far about polish. I usually get my car cleaned by professionals because I do not have the time to do it myself.This time, my car was fairly dirty after the recent pollen outbreak and I got the chance to review the Meguiar G6207 Black Wax.It came in the box like in the picture with a tube of polish and a foam applicator. A very few basic instructions. I would have liked to be told how long to wait before passing the cloth after the polish dries up but I did not see anything related.It took me a total of three and a half hours to do my car completely, including windows, interior wash and vacuum. Out of that time, I would say it must have taken me about one hour and forty five minutes to wax the car and then finish it up. I did it alone and my car is large. I will try to post some pictures but I don't see any link at the time of the review.The final result is very satisfactory. Cleaned and dried, the car looked good I must say but up close, many imperfections were visible, many related to residues of incrustrated tree sap I am afraid.After waxing the car, the defects may still be there but they are hidden by a strong glossy finish that makes the black car paint like a mirror. It is a very pleasant finish. It is worth noticing that the tube was not completely used up in the operation so it should be enough for a large SUV.I still have to add that while I was passing the few remaining passes with the cloth for a perfect shine, I felt the hair on my forearm react to static electricity. As well, the car got covered with what may look like dandruff coming out of the dried wax itself and maybe bits of the microfiber cloth I was using. They all flew away as I drove to refill my tank.I will not have to wash my car and wax it soon again hopefully but I am happy that I did not waste my time.I would defintiely recommend Meguiar's G6207 Black Wax.
I have a black Lexus and the shine is great. I only use Meguiar product on my cars and never have been disappointed  Another great Meguiar product.
I am reading some reviews that claim that its not that great since it did not remove the scratches.  Well I detail cars for a living and products like this "enhance" not fix.  If you want to fix your scratches you would need to spend a lot more and pick the right compounds and polishes, not to mention you would need a good DA polisher and pads.  Meguiars have the M105 and M205 to fix scratches.  Megs black brings out the true luster of dark cars after paint has been corrected giving it that wet car show shine.
works great and easy to use. removed lots of swirl and haze from our black TSK...leaves no residue, easy on and easy off...very pleased with this product..
I've been using paste wax for the past 30+ years and I appreciate how it provides a beautiful finish.  This is the first time I've used a "black wax" and it does do a nice job.I used Meguiar's Black Wax on my 1996 black Honda Civic.  The hood is quite scratched up by now so I thought this might be a good test to see what effect it had on a scratched up surface.  I wish I could attach the photos I took.  I put Meguiar's on the right (driver's side) and Turtle Wax on the left (passenger side).  Both look great, but I'd give the Meguiar's black wax just a shade more credit for a slightly nicer, darker mirror finish.I really like the tube, it is easier than dipping the applicator into a tin.  I also really like that it doesn't leave behind "white dust".This is a very nice product!(I will try to upload some photos to the main product page.)
I have an 09 Range Rover and wash it every week....wax 1x's a month.  Changed to t his wax and it was a very very noticeable difference.  I am very happy... looks showroom new now...very shiny and deep black.
I have been waxing cars for the better part of 35 years. Maybe it was just the car I used this on, but I was not impressed at all with this.The tech wax and number 7 glaze for sure worked better on my Mini. I found this hard to remove and it had a lot of smudges to it. I tried it by hand and also with a machine, still had poor results and will re do the car today. I am going to give it a try on another dark car  I have and see if it is any better, but for now this does not work for me, and I use almost all of Meguars products with no issues.
Meguar's black wax is actually grey.  It leaves a grey/white residue.  It is easy to apply, seems to leave a good shine.  Prefer Turtle Wax Black wax for my black truck.
I was using Turtle Wax &#34;black box&#34;, which is also great... but this single application product from meguiar's is really fantastic.  As with all liquid(ish) wax, let it dry... let it dry a long time.... and you're going to get great results.
While the title says 'black wax' it can also be use on lighter colored cars. Of course, you need the paint surface to be prepped and cleaned otherwise your effort of waxing will be in vein. it has slight/small cleaning property, using the correct pad and speed, it will remove light swirls. gloss?probably on par or slightly lower than the meg's mirror glaze #7, but the advantage of this is it has sealant property. If you have a new car and it is dark colored, you won't be dissappointed! Longevity?last about 4-6 weeks roughly~
This wax is more like gray and you still can't get it on any vinyl parts, because it will still turn white.  I am guessing the wax is of similar wax to Meguire's regular wax with regard to durability.
I purchased this and used it once, it worked so good I bought another tube the same day.  Works great with DA polisher, I bought the Harbor Freight DA with a finishing pad and left a deep black glossy shine.  So much easier than hand buffing. A little goes a long way.
I am very happy that this product produced the results it promises.  The swirl marks on my black Kia Sorrento are completely gone and the car looks showroom new. I have recommended this to all my friends with black cars. I used the included foam applicator and some cheap microfiber towels from Wal-mart for polishing. I can't imagine better results are possible any other way. It took some elbow grease to get the job done, but the results are well worth it. I am anxious to see how long it lasts.  So far, we've driven through a couple horrendous downpours and the dried dust and dirt wipes off easily. I'm lucky to have a garage, so I'm hoping I'll get through the summer and fall with a pretty great shine.This is the product to use on your black car.
1995 Eldorado with original deep candy apple red paint, essentially always garaged and the paint looks great although it has picked up some light micro-scratches after years of hand washing.  I had to choose between Meguiar's offering of a white wax for light colored cars, or this black wax . . . I went with the black.The product comes in the old-fashioned metal (not plastic tube).  Has about the consistency of toothpaste and goes on and buffs off easily enough.  And with this "black wax", I was not making endless circuits around the car cleaning up those wax residue white spots that seem to mysteriously emerge for hours in cracks and crevices.  This stuff is more work (obviously) than a spray wax but not difficult to buff off like some of those old paste waxes.  Results?? . . .Looks super.  Nice deep shine, slick as oiled glass, and even on this red (not black) car, the micro paint scratches and swirls seem to have disappeared.  Has only been on about 10 days, with the car garaged.  One 100 mile drive in the rain and a machine touchless car wash and, as one would expect, rinse water was beading and running off superbly.Nice product.  If it deteriorates quickly, I'll come back and edit my review to reflect that.
This is nice metal polish.  It's your typical high polish product. Take a cotton rag and you can use to polish all kinds of things around the house to brand new state.  Works on watches nicely.
I have a sports car that tends to put out lots of soot in the exhaust...after a few days driving, my highly polished stainless steel exhaust tips start to look downright black. Simple washing removes the soot, but leaves a stain that's proven very difficult to completely remove.Enter Meguiar's Fine Cut Metal Polish. A small dab polished into the exhaust tips completely polishes away the residue. It just takes a moment, and leaves my exhaust tips looking like new. The product is now a staple in my detailing kit, and I'm glad I found it.Definitely recommended!
Keep this in your garage for those chrome touch ups or a must have around the fire station. Whether getting ready for show or parade this product will take a dull water marked metal and turn it to shine! Like most quality products it will take a little elbow to do the work but it is not complicated or messy. It will not run or drip. This product is something anyone who takes pride in how their vehicle looks will want to have!
This polish has a car wax like consistency and an initially cream-like color. I tried it on both brass and aluminum and was very pleased with the results. This is quite fine and will not remove surface scratches from metal; it is more for the final buffing to give your metal a high-quality shine. Works precisely as described.
I have used many different types of metal polishes over the years. This one is good. It does a great job polishing with less effort than some traditional polishes, although I must say I did have slightly better results with less effort using the Griot's polish. Still, this is a good brand with a decent reputation and this polish is certainly better than other ones I've used. If you haven't used a polish like this on old metal such as silverware, copper, and especially aluminum, you will be impressed by how much better your old stuff looks after a few minutes spent polishing it with this stuff.
This is an effective metal polish.  It seems to be pretty versatile, working well on jewelry and even chrome on your car.  No complaints.
After much use of my Ontario MacheteOntario 6145 Military Machete (Black)out in the wild safari (okay, my neighbors unkempt backyard) it needed a good cleaning and polishing after the hunt (weed hunting).I first usedGriot's Garage 11238 Metal Polish - 2.5 oz.which is a rougher paste, but cuts through any grime unseen by the naked eye. The final step was Meguiar's Fine Cut Polish ... worked very well, and when buffed clean I was a happy adventurer.Meguiar's Fine Cut Polish gives a high lustre to automotive metals and also edged weapons and tools.
My motorcycle has a lot of metal on it, aluminum, steel & chrome.  This cleaner works on all of it and does it well.  It removes oxidation, reduces small swirls and brightens all it touches.  I like it better than Noxon as it seems to clean & add a bit of renewed luster & shine at the same time.Good buy.
I have always enjoyed using Meguiar's products. This is no exception. The first job I had for this was my barbeque grill that had been sitting out all winter. By the time I was finished it was shining like a new unit. The wife actually though I had purchased a new one. Before she got too upset with me I showed her the polish can.
There is not too much one can say about a metal polish; it either works or it doesn't. I used this one on a non-automotive part (a brass doorknob and lock plate. It worked fine, but it took a little more effort than I thought it would. So it appears this is a very fine product that won't damage the metal ... just be warned that being fine it will also take more effort to do the job.
The only thing I've used this on is to polish the spinner on my airplane. It was dull and in need of some shining up. I used a big buffer and it did the trick. It made a big difference. I'd buy it again the next time I need to shine the spinner.
Firstly - the product I received was packaged exactly as shown, except . . . instead of "Fine-Cut", the little box on the label contained the word "Finishing". I'm guessing it's the same product and that Meguiar's has modified the name to something that sounds more friendly.I've been using this Meguiar's Finishing Metal Polish predominantly on motorcycle aluminum applications - also a little chrome or stainless steel where I want to touch up problem areas.  I've just been using it as a maintenance polish and applying by hand.  It takes a little elbow grease (but not as much as many other polishes out there).  Nothing tricky here.  Applies like most of the rest - dab on, rub in vigorously, wipe off.Results? . . . an absolutely dazzling mirror finish.
Meguiar's Fine Cut Metal Polish works well, but does require a bit of effort if you opt not to use an electric polisher.  Product is a paste, off-white in color and feels like sand and water, not cream.  It took about 5 applications and no more than 5 minutes to get a nice shine.  I used it on my car's trunk chrome insert, it always seems to get dull over time.
Works wonders in my foam cannon on in my buckets alike. Creates very good lubrication, in essence, does exactly what it is meant to. Also smells WONDERFUL!
not as foamy as they say, tho i do have electric washer i did test it out against chemical guys mr pink. honey dew felt more foamy but mr pink sprayed out more foamy. and mr pink is cheaper :)here is a link to my testyoutube.com/watch?v=ECo3cWRCOZQ
I use this product in a foam gun and not a pressure washer lance.  The product smells great and also suds really well.  I've used this product and the Mr. Pink product and they are both equally great.  I noticed that Mr. Pink is a little more thicker than this product.  You can't go wrong with either product.
i love it it works great smells awesome and does what its  just what they claim it to be nothing more
This was the first product I have ever bought from Chemical Guys. I have always been a fan of car detailing but have limited my purchases for supplies to the local car parts stores. I had read great reviews on Chemical Guys and figured it would be worth a shot trying a car wash/snow foam from them to use with my foam gun. This stuff blows away any basic cleaner you would buy off the shelf. It generates a thick foam that coats the car and loosens up any built up debris before you begin washing with a mitt. Not to mention that the smell of the soap is awesome! I have added many other Chemical Guys products to my aresenal since this purchase and am looking forward to using them all once Spring is in full swing here in Ohio!
I use this soap with a foam cannon to get the best suds I have ever seen. Can also be used with traditional sponge and bucket combo. Another 5 star product from Chemical Guys
Not bad. I use it with a foam gun  . It does good on the suds and has a good smell .  Next on the list is maxi suds II then mr pink.
Puts out a great spread from a foam gun or cannon with just 2 oz per wash; doesn't strip away any sealant or wax so far.
This stuff does a great job at loosening up dirt/mud off of a car, let sit for 1.5-2 minutes on the car and the dirt comes off without any effort some stubborn spots require a wash mitt but not much.
Foams up great with my MTM hydro foam lance. Suds up and removes a lot of dirt prior to rinsing!
As the description says it's very concentrated and foams up big time. A gallon of this cleaner will last a long time. I originally bought it just to use with a foam nozzle attachment for my pressure washer but I've got so much of it now that I'm using it as normal car shampoo and it's working well.Using a good clean sponge and the two bucket method I'm not getting any swirling in my paint so I think this cleaner is effective at lifting up the dirt like it says.
I hated to stop every time I wanted to wet my throat on a long ride. An occasional sip of water or something refreshing is great.This was so reasonably priced I had to give it a shot. I was surprised. Much nicer than the price shows. Very nice quality. Easy to install. Nicely adjustable and it will hold a water bottle, soda, or after market flip top beverage container.Awesome.
not real happy, this does not really work well to hold a bottle of water, unless it's half empty or full however you look at it. I have already taken it off my Harley.
I really like this cup holder.  It has a foam liner that you can remove for a larger cup/bottle if you like and you can adjust this to hang just about anywhere.  I did have to use an additional strip of rubber along with the one that came with it as my handlebars are 7/8&#34; and the included strip just wasn't enough for a tight fit.  The chrome is shiny, it looks good, and it does exactly what it's made to do.
Would like to have more infomation about the best way to mount it but great quality for the price. Everything is metal except for the cup holder.  Still it goes well with my Chrome bike.
What a deal, It is about ten dollars cheeper than the bike store. It is the idenical cup holder that they sell.
I had this Cup Holder for about 2 weeks before the bolt that held the up came loose and my cup fell off. I was so mad. When you get it make sure every bolt is tight or you will loose it.
Lowlife  husband of mine wouldn't put the darn thing on, its still sitting in the closet, so i have to hold the drinks with my hands.T.hey get sick of holding, so i put in his lap for him to hold it
I worked my way through college detailing cars at a dealership in Phoenix. We used the BIG heavy professional grade "buffers" with the 10 inch wool pads which would cut to fresh paint in a hurry.  These buffers were unwieldy, noisy, and heavy.  When I received this Griot's Garage RO I was pleasantly surprised at the compactness and the the build quality of the unit.  I like the adjustable handle and the adjustable speed on the unit.  Due to weather conditions here (HOT) I am going to wait until my garage is under 90 degrees to actually use the RO, but I am confident it will do the job just fine.  BTW, if you are considering purchasing one of these units, opt for the 25' cord.  From experience, I can tell you that a 10' cord WILL unplug from your extension cord at the most inappropriate time, lol.  The extra few bucks for the 25' vs 10' cord will pay for itself in convenience.  I will update this in a few months.
I purchased this with a coupon from Advanced Auto Parts, To me It does the Job with a few  subtleties.1) First 3 pads cost anywhere  between $28-33 dollars this is  expensive especially when you need to get orange and red pads .2) I notice that as I break down each section of the car to Polish the Unit Heats up when used more than 5 mins. What is this about a poor design do I need to get a pair of Landscape  gloves  to used it.I guess for 100+  it is worth it I probably should saved up to buy a Flex.
This thing is a powerhouse. Works very well and has tons of power. The design is great too except the speed control is agitating to change while trying to keep contact. The power switch could be better designed also but overall it works great.
The Lifetime Warranty gives you that peace of mine.  This is really a nice polisher. Has more power then the Meguiar's  Dual Action Polisher, but a little bit heavier.  I'm not a professional detailer so can't comment on the $400.00 dollar polisherYou don't have to use the Griot 6.5 inch pads, you can used other manufacturers pads as well.  I like to use the Lake Country pads 5.5 inch pads.  Just make sure you use the 5 inch backing plate otherwise the 6 inch backing plate will damage the 5.5 pads.  The reason I'm giving it 3 stars was because the speed control dial no longer works. Speed setting 1 and 6 are the only speed settings that work.  Switching out under 30 day replacement.  Hopefully this will be good.
Finally  broke down and bought a DA polisher. Settled on the Griot's after much on line research. So far I have not been disappointed. Have used it to do over have the 5th wheel trailer with good results. Also have used on the 13  year old truck with good results. Works as advertised. No complaints so far.
I hate waxing a car. This makes the job so much easier. If fact, it was so easy doing the car, I also did the truck and then the RV. Bring 'em on.
I Was a little skeptical because of other polishers I've used. But this thing is great. I received it today with a Groits polishing and waxing pad, and I used them all today, just to test it out. Absolutely impressed. I am right now, looking into other Groits products to use with this polisher. I've been a big fan of Meguirs but it looks like things are going to change. Love this thing.
Plenty of power, adjustable front handle, good price. I like this a lot better than others models like the porter cable, and while it doesn't have the throw of a Rupes or the power of a Flex it's also a heck of a lot cheaper.
Ive been detailing cars for many years, I've tried almost every polisher on the market and want to tell everyone this is the best polisher you can buy.I've been using my Porter Cable XP for over a year now, this past Saturday I received my GG DA and here is what I noticed right away.So much power , I polished my truck in half the time compared to the PC, much more powerful.It's much more easier to use than the PC, feels great in your hands.Unlike the PC it won't bog down, no matter how much pressure you put on it the pad continues to spin, that's where the faster correction comes into play.Love the handle in hard to reach areas, like large hoods.IMO its the best polisher I've ever used, it comes real close to the Flex, I mean very close but for a fraction of the cost, I used the Flex too, it's a fine machine but doesn't do more than the GG DA.Do yourself a favor and buy this DA if your looking for one.
White with a hint of blue. Lights up the Fit interior nicely. Didn't really need 4, but it was a fair price.
Purchased these for my dome/map lights in my car.  They are bright and give off a pure white light.  Satisfied with the purchase.
The lights that worked, work great.  I'm happy with them, and am keepign them in the car.  White light with just a hint of blue.  (not the more amber colored leds)My only problem was several did not work completely, and had some of the LEDs out.  Wasn't worth the hassle of returning, and I had extras, so it worked out.  But I would suggest not ordering the exact number you need.Hope that is helpful!
They are the identical product as listed &#34;31mm Festoon 12 LEDs SMD LED Bulb White for 3022 DE3022 3175 DE3175&#34; with the only difference that this package has four bulbs. I could use one only for my Camry as my map light require longer festoon bulb.However the white light looks good in the interior and my kids like them.
My cars current interior door lights were, well a little dull at best. These were a great solution for that. All four worked correctly and were simple to install. Makes a huge difference in my 1995 honda accord ex. Great deal for the money, theres no way you will be disappointed.
I just finished Washing my car with a two bucket system with CarKem ruby red wash and wax. Pro wax 1 Polish. Spray and Shine.to top it off Wolgang 3.0.  I have to say this stuff is $$ have used many different synthetic sealants from Simoniz Synthetic Sealer to Hi Temp products.This is good a product with a nice mirror like finish. wife walked in and noticed a spot on her dress from the reflection the car shined. cool (:
I have always been a dedicated Mirror Glaze person until I discovered that there are products that far surpass what even they offer. This went on super easy using the straight line method illustrated on autogeek.com and it wiped off to a super glossy shine after 45 minutes. Amazing stuff that is supposed to last 4-6 months (almost twice as long as regular wax).
This is the BEST sealant I have ever used. Goes on easy, comes off easy. Leaves a deep shine you will love. Only needs 12 hours to cure. I have see other sealants that need 24 hours. Best bang for your buck!
I have a civic, silver, 11/11 and used it for first time. Very use to apply and remove. I let 10 minutes under the under the paint and rub carefully with a microfiber towel.
I've been detailing cars for 30 years, I tried many sealants/waxes and here to say it's the best I ever used.I applied it to a truck that I did a full correction on, it was so easy to apply but that's not what makes it the best.It's when I wiped it off which was easy, then I noticed this incredible super high gloss like no other.It truly blew me away, not only did it shine but it was so slick, as I wiped my micro towel over the paint I felt no drag, no friction and that's what you want, what will help to avoid swirls down the road, the towel just glided over the finish.From this day on its all I'll use for my paint sealant step.
while this looks really cool in my jeep noone mentioned that you have to cut these knotches out with a razor knife and its pretty thick plastic and the squares are so close together that its easy to cut into the next block or out side the lines.. i proble would have oredered a dif one but if you have time and are fairly nifty you can def make this look cool just take your time
The switch pod fits well as a replacement for the factory item.  You can not tell the difference between the color of this pillar and the surrounding factory plastic.  I installed switches in all 4 locations because it seemed that it would be better to do that than to take it off later to add switches. I purchased the switches from a different manufacturer because I liked the styling of them better.  For whatever switches you purchase you have to cut out the switch openings.  I think the mfg should punch out the plastic at the factory and then placed a plastic cover over the openings.If you are good with an Exacto knife it will be easy to cut the openings for the switches; the plastic is soft.  The included instructions are well written and clear with good pictures.  For the price they should include some hardware with it (the reason for 4 stars) For one metal clip they have you take the plastic wire track cover off of the rear tailgate and use the one in the middle.  There is also a plastic clip that holds in the existing pillar.  This clip tends to break when you remove the old pillar.  They could have included this hardware and received 1 more star.When I installed my switches I used #12 gauge wire and so the pillar was a little difficult to try to mount.  What did help was to run the wires through one of the u-shaped supports on the back of the pillar.  Once installed the pillar looks good.  I had installed long wires for the switches that were long enough to run under the dash.  There is plenty of room under the dash and that is where I will connect to the various devices using butt splices.I would buy this again and recommend it to others for the 2012 JK.
Almost a perfect match to the factor interier. Also came with 4 rocker switches. Did know it came with them so it was better than expected.
This works well on a variety levels.  It's fairly easy to install, it allows easy access to run the wires and it looks good with the surrounding trim.
This is a great product.  The color is spot on with the existing pillar.  It is a little difficult to install but well worth it.  The installation is hard due to jeep not rugged ridge.  The placement of the pillar by Chrysler is extremely tight so you do have to wiggle it in.  The best way i found out how to do it was to remove the snap in panel on the side of the dash and pop the twitter loose from below.  This also allows you to run a wire down.  I would strongly suggest to install a terminal strip below the steering column panel.  The bottom panel closest to the peddle simply pops out and there is a bar there to mount a terminal stirp with can be picked up over amazon or radioshack.  I used 4 daystar rocker switches and used a 8-wire cable from the switches to the terminal strip, this makes the installation a one time deal and not have to take it down every time you add or change a switch.
Fit my 2014 JKUR perfectly.  Great switch panel.
Put this in my 2014 Rubicon unlimited. It is close enough for government work, but isn't a perfect match. Was easy to install and holds switches well. i put in 3 Daystars and a DPDT on the bottom. Would suggest being really careful when cutting. You could easily cut out too much. I put lots of masking tape on the areas around where cutting - you have to apply lots of pressure and i always end up slipping or getting impatient. Got it done without ruining it
Fit nicely in my 2012 JK.  Cutting out the holes for the rocker switches was a bit of a pain but if you take your time you shouldn't have any problems.  Plastic was sturdy and it was a close enough match to the OEM plastic that no one would ever notice.
To help quiet engine sound on the RV, installing it under the "door" to the engine, helped a little.  It wasn't large enough to cover the whole "door".  It does do as it's described, it reduces sound. It does not eliminate it.
I followed the instructions and was able to 'tame' one of our car's door speakers. It worked but keep in mind that the 'easy to install' claim applies to the mat itself. Getting to the point where you can actually install it, that's a separate story.If you are good with your hands, get this by all means. It does what it claims it does but if you are afraid to take your car apart to get to the place where the mat needs to be placed well... there are people who do this for a living. It will cost you more but you will worry a lot less.Oh, also keep in mind that, depending on how big your project it, you may need more than one mat to complete it.
While this sound reduction mat comes in a single box and it measures 2 1/2 square feet, it actually is created in two separate pads.After you open and unfold the pads, you cut them to size and place them inside a door, trunk or hood. As you can guess, you will likely need a larger size for larger products. What I liked about this was that it was easy to cut and it is peel and stick.I joked with my husband about installing it across his nose to stop his snoring ... but I'm afraid it would also prevent him from breathing ... so we had to use it on the car.
Installing sound reduction mats in your car is a great way to reduce road noise and vibrations.  The matting absorbs the sounds and adds weight to a panel, reducing it's tendency to vibrate.  Matting can be placed inside trucks, engine walls, inside doors - pretty much anywhere there is metal it can stick to.We have a 1984 Mustang that is a street legal drag car.  It has a loud exhaust, it is so loud that it sets off car alarms when driving by parked vehicles.  Everything in that car vibrates including my teeth.  The most annoying vibrations came from the trunk. We cut long strips of the 3M Sound Reduction Mat and adhered it to the parts of the hatchback where they touched metal-to-metal. The vibrations halted.  Now time to go to the next section of the Stang.  However, We are going to have to purchase more rolls since this roll is was only big enough to do a small job.I am pleased with the performance of this product, but it made me aware that there are many other brands that offer larger mats at better prices.  Besides mats, there are also sprays, foams, and insulation available from different manufacturers.
I thought this would be a quick and easy solution to muffling the rattles emanating from a 1998 ford.  I was wrong. The product is a fairly hard black vinyl with an adhesive back.  Designed to be used on metal surfaces, it must be applied when temperatures are higher than 40 degrees farenheit. The surface must be thoroughly cleaned. The mat may be sized by cutting with scissors or in my case an exacto knife.The backer is removed and the mat is positioned.  Then ideally, the mat will fit securely and the offending noises muffled. If necessary you may use a blow dryer or heat gun.Sounds great. But it isn't quite so easy. First, it being winter in NY, I had to wait until the temperatures rose. I had planned to use this in a door. But the material is inflexible, cuttable, but still inflexible. Worse, I couldn't get it to stick in position. So I wound up taking it off. My brother then took the remainder for the back floor of his suv. He had better luck getting it to stick using a heat gun. He is satisfied with its noise muting capabilities.This product was not for me. Unless you are adept at accessing the offending parts and fairly handy, this requires significantly more work than the package suggests. When properly applied, it does seem to work. I wonder if the adhesion is effected by heat as well as cold. Obviously, the material becomes more brittle in the cold and does not adhere. Conversely, in high summer heat, does it melt or become gooey? I dodn't know. I think the product can perform adequately but unless you are experienced with this type of installation, I would pass.
This 3M sound reduction mat's appearance is best likened to gasket material according to my husband who has a great deal of experience with such things...just in case you wanted to have a better handle on what it looks like.The main limitation of this mat is its size. It is ideal for speaker use, but any larger application will require multiple sheets. If we wanted to use this in our door panel, we would  probably prefer to buy a larger sheet or product and place it there in order to maximize the sound reduction through consistency and lack of gaps as well as to reduce the weight that several of these mats would ad. We park along a curb or sidewalk nightly and already have to finagle opening our passenger door to get out of the car. If it were just a bit more weighty with this material, it would be more difficult to keep it from scraping the concrete. Anyone using this mat for a large surface area would need to consider such issues.However, for a speaker or speakers, this would be fine if you can find the temperature sweet spot that allows for an easier application. It took a bit of doing for us to make this work, and if were doing a vertical stick, it probably would not have staid put at this point in time (early spring).
This sound reduction mat is made of a flexible rubber-like material that is about 1/8 inch thick. It is adhesive and comes rolled up with a paper liner. The adhesive used is super sticky and adheres well. The mat can be cut with regular scissors to get a perfect custom fit. The mat is very flexible but I found using a blow dryer to heat the mat really helped mold it to the surface. The mat is 19  by 19  inches, but you should know that it is perforated down the center. I'm not sure if the mat was very effective in reducing the sound. Maybe we just didn't apply enough to make a significant difference. I think it does help though.
This 3M Sound Reduction Mat is designed for use in cars, but I used to on our shop workbench to reduce the noise and shaking from a vibrating cleaner. This mat did a great job at absorbing the vibration and the size was perfect for the bench top.I am not sure that a mat this small would do much in my truck to reduce road noise, but there are other uses for this product.Recommended!CFH
I applied this in the trunk all at once, using the entire mat.  It would have taken a lot more material to do the doors not to mention time.  So for the sake of time and effort I did the trunk.  It did deaden some sound - that's how I know it works.The job of cutting the right sizes and applying to a lot of contours is more than I think most people are prepared to do plus will require more units.  But if you spend a lot of time in your car, it seems practical to me.
I installed this sound reduction mat in the trunk of my Mitsubishi Lancer Rally Edition. It' not the quietest of cars so I figured it could use a little soundproofing. Even though this roll looks somewhat big it was used up quite quickly. I didn't have enough to cover the entire truck but was able to do most of it. Installation was a breeze on My Lancer because all I had to do was reach under the truck liner and apply the adhesive mat. It stick's fine to a nice and clean surface. Just be sure to clean any area that is dirty or dusty prior to attempting to install the mat. I don't notice any sound difference when driving really but notice a little difference when riding in the back seat of the car. I think this product works a little but might not be for the average person because it would take so many rolls and so much work installing it. Especially if you are doing the inside of your door panels it's a lot of work with only a small payoff. However if you have a loud sound system or just an extremely loud car then it may be worth the work.
This sound-deadening material is super-easy to install, just peel and stick.  Quieted down the noise from my engine bay into the cabin significantly.  The only downside I can find is that this stuff is super-heavy.  If you are a firm believer in the Lotus motto of "adding lightness" this might not be for you.
Being that this only comes in one size that's a big downside. I hope to see 3M make other sizes available for bigger applications like most people  are doing. I installed this in the trunk of my vehicle and did not notice a big difference in road noise reduction. I think there are better alternatives. I've seen big mats and bigger rolls through other vendors online. Overall, unless this is just for around speakers I don't think this will fit many applications unless you want to buy a lot, but if you are buying a lot there are some other semi and custom products to fit your exact need.
While comparing this to Dynamat Xtreme, so far I prefer Dynamat, except for the price.Dynamat has a foil backing which gives it a nice feel to contour the mat to wrap around complex objects.So far I can't tell the difference in sound reduction between the two.I would use this one when I need to cover large areas at low cost.I'll use Dynamat when I want it to look nice with the shiny foil.
So, we have a vehicle with a center console that squeeks and makes an inordinate amount of noise if we actually put anything inside the console. Nothing major but just enough to irritate the ever living daylights out of everyone in the car when driving for more than 2 minutes. We know what the problem is and have resorted to "stuffing" things around the opening or leaning on the center console etc to make it stop. It's annoying but not covered under warranty. When this came up for review, I thought it would be a good idea to try out.First, this isn't a very big mat but was more than ample for our needs. It's about 20 inches which would be too big for the entire bottom but not large encough to "wrap" the entire console area. The console is about 14 inches so this required trimming. Then, due to the sizing, I was afraid it may not allow the console insert to fit back in but it does. This is flexible, takes a bit of time to cut to size and then installation is sticky but not a huge mess. The console 'box' fits back in place over this, squeek is stopped and no more rattling sound thanks to the insulative properties.All in all, it's not the easiest thing to work with but certainly well within the DIY realm and gets the job done.
Seems to work as well as the D brand.  Most of these products are similar.  They are self-adhesive flexible tar paper.  They stop vibration by adding weight to the vibrating panel.  So be aware that you will add significant weight to your vehicle if you go too crazy.  If you are just looking to make the vehicle quieter (e.g. reduce road noise) a foam or fiber type insulation will work better and be much lighter.  But this works as designed.
I think that for a sound deadening material like this to work, you would need to install a lot of it if the goal is to make a noticeable difference in noise levels inside a car. Just adding it to exposed trunk panels which I thought might be the source of excessive road noise didn't seem to make any difference at all. Perhaps the real point is that reducing annoying sound levels requires expertise far beyond mine. I suppose that isn't the fault of the product, but it is a matter of expectations not being met. A professional who knows what they are doing would probably need a whole lot of this material installed in the right places to make a difference.
For years auto sound reduction has been ruled by Dynamat and various similar products.  Now that this 3M product has been released it appears that sound reduction might go more mainstream.  The amount of product that I received from Amazon Vine was not large enough that I could do a definitive test, but it seems to absorb sound as well as other similar products.  Because of the size of the 3M distribution network, this product could be just the thing to make consumer-installed sound reduction widely available not just to car enthusiasts, but also to the general public.
I was going to put this in front of the shifting lever in the '88 Trooper to try to suppress road noise, but I decided the speakers would benefit most. I still have a mess-load of mat left for when I get around to pulling up the carpet.I sliced out eight squares of mat, each barely an inch in size, took off the speakers, cleaned the mating metal surfaces as directed and let it dry, then stuck each square on between the speaker mounting points and installed the speakers on top of it, with excellent results; I can crank the stereo up and not get any rattle.The mat is like a heavy sheet of tar. I have a similar two-inch wide roll of this same material on my boat, not sure where it came from, as it was already there, but it is the same thing only more narrow and there is an entire roll of it, so stuff is out there, perhaps it is also a 3M product. Unlike my tar strip roll, this mat does have a crosshatch pattern on the surface, which may help to dissipate noise when applied to a large surface.I am not keen of permanently added weight on my vehicle - not that it is excessive, but every pound makes a difference. It feels heavy, so entire sheets of this stuff in the car may not be what I would consider an asset, but I may do the floor eventually and report on its effects in the future, but it did work magnificently for the speakers.
This product did block noise in the spot it was placed but the entire piece of material is 20x19.5 inches so will only be useful if your noisy spot is smaller that this. One side has glue on it.
This is a good idea for a product because most of us have car noises and vibrations we'd like to eliminate. However, I have a couple issues with this product.For one thing, the instructions are intimidating. After reading them (and re-reading them), I decided this would be best installed by someone who's done this kind of thing before. I could do it, but I'd likely end up messing up and the frustration level seems high. The examples illustrated on the package are not impressive, and I'm sure I would do much worse.Secondly, to do a thorough job it appears that you need more than one box of this mat. For example, to apply the mat to the trunk area requires 2 boxes (the estimated time is 30 minutes--I assume this is for a professional), and 1 box is required for each door (the estimated time is 15 minutes per door.)I might consider trying to use the mat for speaker installation because that requires less than one box. However, in looking at the illustration I'm again intimidated.This might be a great product if you've had experience with something like it before, but I'm going to leave this one to the professionals.
I used this in the wheel well of my suv to try to deaden some road noise.  The mat was brittle and some of it broke into small pieces that I discarded. The mat itself is small and it would take quite a few of them to make much difference in the amount of road noise infiltrating a car.  It would also be a tremendous amount of work and time to install on floor boards. doors and wheel wells.  The investment in time and money wouldn't be worth a little less noise.
This sound reduction matting material from 3M is a thick, pliable, self-adhesive sheet.  The dense material dampens sound waves and vibrations.  It comes rolled and the sheet is perforated down the middle.  It is very malleable and will adapt to fit around stereo components and fill cracks or holes.This product is really intended only for people with experience installing audio equipment in vehicles and is not ideal to be used under a fan or blender where it will be visible.  It does still function but it is slightly tarry and hard to keep clean.
I love my loud corvette and the rumble it makes when I start it up. It really gives me a thrill, however I also like to take phone calls (on Bluetooth) while driving and the rumble can be too much. I had bought a similar product to be installed in one of my cars when I put new carpeting in a few years ago and it worked extremely well with sound reduction. I installed several pieces in my corvette and am very happy with sound reduction although I will need to add more pieces when I upgrade the speakers.
Well, you can see the size of this mat listed in the title for yourself.  Although it might be nice to have a huge sheet if you're doing the engine compartment of your car, multiple sheets fitted together is probably more convenient in most cases.  Car audio applications are the obvious choice (heard of Dynamat?) - you know, getting that license plate to stop rattling with the bass.  But start thinking of any appliance you have vibrating in your basement or utility room in your house: chances are you can make that less annoying fairly easily with one or two of these.  Be careful, though - a real disadvantage is that stopping vibration from being annoying is so easy that it might dissuade you from getting to the root of the problem.Use a heat gun to apply, bend, and remove if necessary.
This product is easy to install (have to pull up mats to get to metal surface so it adheres well.Need to watch the temperature in that if it is too cold or hot will not stick.For real effectiveness several of these would be needed.I kept trying to think of other uses for this product.  It is so heavy and rugged but not extremely thick (maybe about a 1/4 inch).There must be some way to use this to deaden common household noises.I put it under my coffee grinder but that did nothingI just think this is such an innovative product that there must be great unintended uses for it.
I installed this in the door panel of my truck and I'm noticing a slight reduction in sound and rattles.  I only had the one mat to try out so I didn't expect to feel like I was in a sound-proof booth with just one installed, but it did cut down on the rattle.Simple to install with no special tools required, very strong adhesive.
I placed this under my Infinity Basslink.  I placed a false bottom in my Crossfire to hold my Pioneer AVG-VDP1 - Real-time Vehicle Dynamics Processor and AVD-W6210 Touch Screen Display.  This Sound Reduction Mat worked perfectly to support the Basslink and make it right.  No more road noise and vibration.  It was easy to adhere to the false bottom of the support for the Infinity Basslink.  It just stuck on.Do not stuck on if your tempertures below 40 degrees or in won't stick.You can scan the bar code on your phone to see a video.
I found this product very easy to install -- easy to cut, easy to apply, and easy to trim after application. Sticks nicely as well (otherwise it would not do much sound deadening!)Be warned ... you'll probably need more than you think. I used it on my 1999 Silverado, to help dampen the sound resonation. I did not cover the holes in the inner door panel because (1) I wanted to see how well it worked solely as a dampener and not a blocker, and (2) I wanted to leave the access holes as they are, for now, due to some upcoming body work to be done. In this way, one box covered nicely the back door and most of the passenger front door. I would have needed at least one more box to cover the holes in the inner skin on these two doors, maybe two.Does it work? Yes. Even with the limited use, it dampened the sound. It also makes the back door sound more solid when closing.Will I buy more? Yes. Once the body work is done, I will do a full inner skin cover. It will be easy, as the way it sticks I don't have to remove the pieces already installed. I'll just leave them and cut more to fill the holes.I have never used competing products so I cannot comment on them, but this seems to be a nice alternative to the well-known DynaMat. It is a good thickness and it is very easy to use. Won't add much weight to your car either.
I was hoping to use this to muffle noise in my trunk over my spare tire which has been used a couple of times. The description talks about it being used in a trunk. To do so would have required at least two of these mats and possibly three.  I did lay it over the area and it cut down the noise somewhat.  If I took the time to fully cover the trunk area I think it would work even better but I have not done it yet because this is supposed to be used on bare metal.The instructions say you can only do this if it is above 40 degrees and you are to use this only on a metal surface. You are to clean the surface with rubbing alcohol. You then peel the yellow liner of the matt and apply to the surface. A heat gun or blow dryer can be used if "additional conformity is needed."I did not use this on a metal surface but used it on the material that covers the part of my trunk that holds the mini spare tire. I actually used Duct Tape to hold it in place.  It did muffle some of the sound coming from my spare tire area even though I did not use this as per the instructions.I did not use this as per the instructions so my review has to be viewed based on that.  This is only supposed to be used on metal surfaces. While this says it is for use in a trunk the picture shows it being used on the metal surfaces on a trunk which varies from trunk to trunk or in a door panel or around speaker installations. This will take some expertise and an ability to cut this to fit corners and curves.My limited and technically incorrect use muffled some sound so I think this works, I wish this could just be laid over the entire back of a trunk or on the floor of a car or truck without having to go to bare metal to do so. It would be easier and I think it would work.
I was intrigued with this product, but didn't realize until it arrived how much work was involved in utilizing it. I have not yet tried using this on the door panels yet, but I have installed this in the trunk, under the lining and I'm amazed at what just this one small install has done to cut down road noise. Because of the reduction in noise - noise I didn't even realize was there until it was gone - I'm now more tempted to get this in my door panels as well. One should note that this is not a job for the faint of heart. I needed help from my stepsons with the trunk install - and the liner in the trunk is fairly easy to remove. The door panels are going to be weekend jobs.
We have a water pump that makes a lot of noise when it is running despite being enclosed in a small wooden box.  Two rolls of this was able to line the entire interior of the box, and has significantly reduced the amount of noise that escapes the pump when it is running.I don't know how well it would work in a car, because there are so many places that sound can get through, but maybe for small problem areas it would be useful.  It worked great for our application, even sticking very permanently to the unfinished wood box.//-Update-//A few weeks after using this on the water pump I was driving to work and was getting annoyed by rattling in my center console.  I stopped off at an auto supply store and bought another roll of this mat.  I lined my cup holder (where my stainless steel coffee cup was rattling), and my glove box.  It is thin enough that it doesn't take up any space, but does the job of silencing vibrating keys, flashlights, coffee cups, and similar items very well.
For me the time and effort to install this product is not worth the benefits, if any. A trunk installation requires two mats, but I tried it with the one I had. If you don't mind sizing and installing contact paper, then you may not mind installing this sound deadening mat. There seems to be some reduction in sound from the trunk, and most likely a second mat would have produced better results.The 3M mats would probably work best for smaller applications, like around speakers, and for those who like little projects and don't mind expending some time and effort to install the mat.
This mat is small, dense and self-adhesive. It's is designed for installing in your car to reduce road noise and around speakers for better sound quality. The package contains one mat that is a little over 2.5 sq. ft. The mat is perforated in half for smaller applications, but can be installed in one piece. It cuts easily with household scissors, but it does get adhesive on them so don't use your best pair for this project.Prepare the surface you are applying the mat to by cleaning well with alcohol and allowing to dry. Any hint of grease will affect adhesion. Also, the mat is stiff at lower temperatures. Heating it with a blow dryer makes it easier to apply and to cut with scissors.The real issue comes about when you must remove door panels, carpeting or the dash to install the mats. Even though the package estimates installation of one mat to be 15 minutes per door, 30 minutes per speaker and 30 minutes for the trunk, I think this is extremely unrealistic for the average car owner. Plus, you will need many more mats to apply it to all these locations for maximum sound reduction.After taking a look at my car doors closely and realizing I had no idea how to remove the inner panel, I decided that I had another completely different application for this mat that would be perfect and more within my skill set. I own a couple of serger sewing machines. These machines run at speeds of up to 1500 stitches per minute and are really loud. They also vibrate like crazy. I applied this mat on the table I serge on and the difference is very gratifying. Much quieter and very little vibration! Plus the surface of the mat keeps the machine from "dancing" around the table when sewing at high speeds.I can imagine many more uses for these mats and plan to get a few more for under my bench power tools, under my large food processor and under my stand mixer.
These sound proofing mats are extremely stiff. I wanted to use them in my vehicle's tailgate. I took the precaution of taking a hair dryer out to warm them up so they would fit securely since the flooring has some very wide grooves. Even with that these would not conform to the flooring, they lay on top.It would take several more purchases in order to cover the whole area; there are numerous other products out there that seem more reasonable in cost. With this partial coverage there is no difference in the sound level and I have no confidence that these will stay on with the constant loading and unloading of items, since they refuse to stick to the whole flooring, but just the tops of the wide  grooved surface - wish they would state that surface must be completely flat. It does show the mat bending to the curve and bumps of a door in their directions - sure didn't work for me.
These are nice and bright and stand out even in daylight. The only thing That I found is, in cold weather during winter time, one of the lights would flicker.
Before I start this, there are cheaper alternatives on amazon with more bulb quantity, but dont give into temptation like I have in the past. Those are cheap, too &#34;blue&#34; and half of them dont work. ORDER THESE INSTEAD YOU WILL BE MUCH HAPPIER!I bought these to replace side marker lights in an S2000 and they worked perfect. They are very bright and are almost a pure white. Id say theyre in the 5000K range which is white with a hint of blue, but no where near the blue range. All of them lit up perfect and also looked great when I replaced the bulbs in the gauge cluster of '98 Camry.These are also almost the same size as OE bulbs so you shouldnt have any problems with these being too long. I will definitely order from this seller again.
Exactly what I needed. I've been replacing all my bulbs with LEDs where I can. They work and have great color.
One thing with these white LED bulbs - they do give a sort of "pinkish" color to a red parking light (rear) on my 2005 TSX. But that is not the fault of the bulb - red lens and you're supposed to use red LED. But for my front door lights, they are excellent - very bright. So bright that I have to remind myself not to stare at these bulbs when opening the door - especially at night.
Just installed these yesterday and they are nice and white, but not as bright as I'd hoped.  I'm also curious to see how long they will last.  The price is decent and will probably buy again if need be.  Overall I'm satisfied with this purchase.
They do warn before you buy to see if the light would fit. I measured and thought I had enough room. I managed to fit it in for my license plate lights. I had to bend it slightly but it works. The light is bright and makes my wrx look a bit more modern. I don't like the older yellow lights
Good light, super white and bright. The only downside is that they seem to have a small quality control issue. I've bought about a dozen of these, and only LED on one bulb has burnt out in about 5 months. Used these in my reverse lights, tag light, and trunk light. Even with the one (barely noticeable) LED burnt out, still very pleased with this product.
I have these on my '05 impala and '04 Regal, both with the 3.8L engine.  Works great to replace the plastic elbows that always seem to leak and break.
I bought these elbows to replace my plastic oem one that crack. It is an excat fit and slides right into place. Very solid metal. No leaks from elbow either. And it cost just about the same as the plastic ones that break and crack over time from heat exhaustion. Would recommend product.
These were perfect. I replaced the coolant elbow on my 97 Lesabre with 3800 V6, and it worked perfectly. Time will tell if they last, but even if they don't, they shouldn't destroy themselves like the plastic ones; meaning I can just install a new O-ring and be good to go.
I ordered these to replace the plastic coolant elbows on my wife's 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix 3.8L. The plastic ones finally got too old to withstand the temperature and began cracking and leaking. If you've got a 3.8L GM motor and are loosing coolant but don't know where - it's most likely these little bad boys. These elbows go between the intake manifold and the belt tensioner (top), and between the belt tensioner and the block or the water pump (bottom - depending on model). There a couple of video's on YouTube that tell you how to replace these on various GM models, but the process is the same regardless of model or year, with few exceptions.Takes about an hour the first time you have to do it ;)These elbows are made out of quality aluminum and will most likely outlast the vehicle at this point. They are machined perfectly - I used a little liquid wrench on the o-rings so they would go in smoothly without tearing or sliding off their seat. Popped right in and the fit and finish is perfect.
If you own a Buick 3.8 engine you will need these elbows sooner or later to replace that cheap plastic junk that was originally equipped with 3.8 engines. They are not that difficult to install if you have some mechanical skill but should be combined with other service such as a water pump replacement. Best to plan now before next winter if you reside in cold weather states. If your running DexCool antifreeze it can be found at most WalMart stores at good prices. Good Luck.
This was my first steam cleaning machine and I wish I didn't wait so long to find out how useful they are. You can clean and sanitize so many surfaces without using any cleaning products so it is great for the pocketbook and the environment. Floors are a breeze and because it leaves them barely wet they dry in no time.Overall the HomeRight Steam Machine is well designed, easy to use and has attachments for a large variety of chores. I like that there is a compartment on the machine to store all of the smaller attachment and adapters. If you fill it with 40oz. of water it will produce steam for 45 minutes but also included in the manual is the information that 26oz. will run for 30 min and 13oz. for 15 minutes. That is handy when you just want to do a small job. It takes only about 8 minutes for it to heat up.I had one particular chore in mind when I ordered this steamer. My 2005 Weber Performer grill had years of baked on grime inside the kettle and I had just been cleaning the grate with a wire brush so it needed some attention too.  It did a great job and there is no better way to clean your grill grate than steam and the included brass brush.  You can order replacement brushes and attachments directly through the HomeRight web site.There is one flaw in the design though, the handle has a ribbed hard plastic grip that is uncomfortable and it is best if you wear a work or rubber glove if using for an extended period. That is the only reason I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars. The manufacturer really needs to redesign that.
Let's go over some of the basics of this machine.It provides steam.  Steam can be very helpful in the cleaning/removal of a lot of things.  It comes with a lot of attachments, and some general attachments as well.  We found the floor attachment to basically just heat/dampen a microfiber cloth, not really that great.  However the wallpaper removal one has had good success, as well as a few of the more general tips/extensions.It does take a few minutes to heat up, and then needs to be emptied after use.  It should also be noted that distilled water is recommended to be used, although the manual says that other water can be used (in our case we have a reverse osmosis filter, so we used that).My biggest complaint is storage of all the accessories.  Some fit in the machine, which is great, but a lot don't, and combined with the hose, etc it means you kind of have a mess wherever it is sitting.It's a good cheap way to get steam power for cleaning, and if you have tile/stuck wallpaper/annoying stains, it might help you out.
The manufacturer got it right with the HomeRight SteamMachine - and ours gets a workout throughout the year.It's very simple to setup - just add water and plug it in. There is an attachment for practically every chore I need it for:* Cleaning the tile floors (we have two wild dogs)* Cleaning my BBQ grill* Cleaning the glass of the pellet stove in winter* Cleaning the stove (inside and out)* Cleaning the bathrooms - bathtubs, showers, sinks, floorsThe unit is compact and light, so it's easy to move about the house. But it delivers high-pressure power that cleans every surface put to task. A very well-made, well-designed little steamer.
This is one cool machine, definitely one of my favorite cleaning tools. I have not used it for wallpaper yet, only for cleaning but I am so pleased with it.  I have cleaned sinks, toilets, doors, showers, floors.  It came with a very detailed, illustrated manual so it was easy to get it ready for use.  It has lots of attachments to use and they are both illustrated and described in the manual so you know what they are for.  Strong pressure and I was surprised how long you can use it before having to refill the tank. I haven't even had to refill it on the projects I've used it for because they've all been under 30 minutes and I still had water to go when finished that I ended up draining before storing it.  My spouse started using it willy nilly without reading the manual on what not to use it on and ended up stripping the paint off a door that didn't have a finish on it...so pay attention to what surfaces to avoid using it on (the manual details this).I would highly recommend this steam machine.
Excellent Product:Tackles all of our cleaning challenges with great results.Pros:  Great to clean kitchen stains, rug stains, bathroom stains and even hard water stains.  Great set of attachments.Cons: Not many to speak of...if you follow the directions it works 100% perfectly.  Product does make you wonder how long it will last...but time will tell that.Our story is quite simple...we live in a home with 8 people and a small dog.  Things can get messy.  On top of that we have well water which is hard and destroys most of our faucets and shower heads.  Third, we cook a lot Indian food which can stain kitchen cabinets and tile caulk pretty easily.We first wanted to attack our kitchen...since we spend a lot of time in there.  Again, we cook a lot of Indian food and it can get quite messy and does stain almost everything it touches due to turmeric.  Our kitchen cabinets, unfortunately, are white.  We basically attached the included scrubbing brush and went to town on our cabinets.  While the stains did not disappear 100%, I can safely say that 90% of them were removed without scratching the surfaces.  EXCELLENT.Second - we decided that we would try this on the hard water build up around our shower heads (cheaper then replacing them)...much to our surprise this thing pulverized the calcium build-up and our shower heads were almost new again.  It also aided in removing the hard water spots that occur on faucets and shower doors... EXCELLENT.Third - rugs - dog - accidents - kids - accidents - stains :) - Yep...we hit all of our major spots on our carpets and I can say we had about 80% success there without using any chemicals.  Very Good.  I cannot blame the steamer because some of those stains are quite old and probably permanent at this point.Overall - with the quality of this machine, the included accessories, and the fact that the pressure is right and the thing cleans..I give it 5 stars.  Excellent.
I've received this as a 'for review' unit but the seller did not ask or even imply that a 'positive' review was expected in exchange.It worked well for most of our cars. Once connected it will:- display diagnostic codes- erase ALL codes- retrieve I/M readiness status- display the VIN number on 2002 or newer vehicles- rescanThe MS300 supports the OBD II or OBD2 (On-Board-Diagnostics II) system and it understands all OBD2 protocols that a car may use: PWM, VPW, KWP2000, ISO9041, EKWP2000 or CAN. Once the proper protocol is detected, the MS300 is ready to display whatever Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC) the car computer's memory may be holding.It should be noted that:# it only retrieves codes already stored in the computer# it does NOT provide any 'real-time' monitoring# it is completely stand-alone and no Web-updates are possible# it does not have printing capabilities# it is powered through the car's own DLC (Data Link Connector)In my case, I was able to diagnose within minutes the source for the 'Service Engine Soon' warning on my dashboard:P0442 - EVAP Emission Control System Leak (Small)I erased the codes and, if the warning reappears, I will know EXACTLY what to tell the technicians._________________________________________Note:It did NOT work on our Honda Insight 2010, a hybrid. No matter how many times I try, all I get is a 'LINK ERROR'.
Our car computers hold SO much information but the message we, as consumers, receive is a little yellow engine light that frankly incites so much fear that, when I see it, I want to pull over and dial 911 before my car bursts into flames. Sure, I've been told that sometimes it is nothing more than reaching a magic number on the odometer or any number of tiny other things, but that engine light is still so vague and yet so terrifying...and that's what the dealership wants. Terror. I called the dealership about my engine light and a &#34;diagnostic reading&#34; was $150 then they could tell me what needed to be done. So that engine light, that may have popped on for nothing more than me crossing some imaginary mile, could cost me $150 for nothing more than to have them to turn it off. And God forbid you just leave it on...try selling a car with the engine light on. Tell your buyer &#34;it is just the mileage indicator&#34;.This plugs right into your car under the dash on the drivers side. A meaningless fault code will appear on the little screen. And even if you don't have the fault code guide book right with you, you can type that exact code into Google. Well, any time i have ever done it anyway, it gave me the meaning and diagnosis of the engine light. This also gives you the option of turning the d--- thing off. So if it is a &#34;just wanted to let you know you've driven 50k miles&#34; light, you don't have to drop a couple of bills getting the dealer to explain that.I've used one of these for years when I've had less-than-new cars. This one was sent to me for test and review. Currently I don't have any check engine lights or problems. I plugged it in anyway and it appears to work fine. I am at 41000 miles, so if I get that idiot light at 50k and this product doesn't work, I will update. But DEFINITELY invest in one of these if you have a car that isn't under a full bumper to bumper warranty in your family. It will save you far more than it costs.
I'm a big fan. Quite by coincidence, the manufacturer of this device offered me a sample about a week after my CEL came on. The following is my honest opinion.So many of us have been there - you're driving along quite happily and suddenly your dashboard gets a little brighter. As you notice exactly WHICH light came on, it suddenly becomes a burning stare of gloom, an automotive Medusa. Okay, I'm being dramatic, but it seriously makes for a crappy day. A week later, this little guy came in the mail, and following the relatively well-written and simple instructions, I plugged it in and started reading.Turns out my code isn't the end of the world - something to do with one of my fuel system gaskets that is either going to be an $80 or $120 part. But still, unless you have your code read (I know autozone does this for free but I don't have one near me) by a mechanic, you're driving blind, so to speak. Another nifty feature is the code reset. Just for kicks, I reset my codes and hey presto - off goes the CEL. Of course about 50 miles later it was tripped again (if only resetting codes would magically fix the problem) but it's nice to know it works. You can also read your VIN number which is handy, especially if you're buying a used car and want to make sure everything matches up!Overall, this is definitely worth the modest price. It works very well, has a small profile (I keep it in the glove box) and the cable is long enough to be used while sitting in the driver's seat. Definitely recommended without reservation.
With my former car, I got complacent with the dealer repairs and paid dearly.  The fee for diagnostics at a dealer is high - up to $200, which of course can be negotiated down but what a hassle.  Worse, much worse is that the role of diagnostics and that of repair if vested in the same party can lead to abuse.Put another way, those that deal with customer service and don't even see which mechanic works on the car are gamblers in a losing game.  You can get away with it sometimes but it will catch up with you.  For that reason, people need their own diagnostic tool that can read error codes.  The book that comes with this diagnostic tool tells what the error codes mean.This device is great.  No battery needed - it uses the car's electrical system (without the motor running).  It plugged into my car with no problem.  Sample was provided.
Following the directions in the accompanying manual, I was able to use this device to scan the codes in my car's computer and read my vehicle's VIN. Although the nearby Pep Boys shop will run a FREE scan for me, having a scanner of my own is much more convenient and I can see the results myself without having them &#34;interpreted&#34; by the mechanic.The dealer where I bought my car new won't hook up a scanner for less than $100. This little gadget will certainly save me some bucks because I can identify the problem myself and have a good idea of what kind of repairs may be necessary before I take my car to the shop. If you have detected a problem and have fixed it yourself, you can reset the code that causes your engine light to come on. Not only does it scan the codes on my car, it also scans the codes on my Winnebago Itasca Sunova Model 33C motorhome. This scanner will be accompanying me during my travels in my coach to help us sniff out any troubles that come up.For anybody who wants to know what is going on with his or her car or other compatible vehicle, this scan tool is a reasonably-priced way to become informed.I was provided a free sample of this device in exchange for an honest review, which you have just read.
I love that this scanner requires no batteries - it works off your car's power. It's cheap and a good thing to have on hand should your check engine light come on. I know AutoZone will test your car at no charge, but the check engine light has to be "on" for them to do so. Some mechanics will charge you $79 on up to check your codes.This is easy to use once you find your car's diagnostic port (usually under or near the steering wheel under the dashboard). I think the manual that comes with this leaves a little to be desired, I found more info on how to use this by watching the Autel YouTube videos.It doesn't work on all cars - and I don't know why it doesn't. It appears to me that cars built in Japan have less success with this. I tried more than once and got a LINK ERROR for my 2010 Toyota Yaris. I never got it to work with my car--I've had no CEL warnings though. I also tried it on a friend's 1996 Chevy Lumina that has had several CEL warnings recently, it gave me the code numbers to look up, cleared the codes, and a few days later the CEL came on again...so it clears the codes, but not permanently. ~~~~ sample received for evaluation ~~~~
Like the description says. This is the only true way in filling coolant that has been emptied or low enough to create air in the system.Very straight foreward to use, just connect the right adapter to your coolant fill (pressurized side of system) and fill the funnel till you have fluid sitting midway in the funnel..Run the engine with the funnel on for (rule of thumb) 2 fan cycles if the car has electric fans.. or till the coolant temperature reads 205 degrees.I wish that the adapters were sold individually on amazon... Sucks to have to buy a new funnel set just because the Japanese radiator cap adapter is wore out...I believe lisle is the only manufacturer of this type of funnel, so your buying from the creators.. which is usually not a bad thing
This is the best funnel I have found to service the cooling system on my truck. You can fill the cooling systems with this funnel locked down, so you can keep coolant in the funnel while the engine is running, and as the coolant goes down you can add more coolant. Once the air is out of the system, you can put the plunger into the funnel to stop it up, remove the funnel and put the extra coolant back in the jug. Just set the funnel into the jug and pull the plunger up, all the extra coolant will empty into the jug. I wish I had purchased one of these years ago. It also comes with all the adapters needed to service all makes of cars and trucks.
This is the most current version of the Lisle spill free funnel which includes the angle adapter needed on newer cars.  This is the one you need.
Needed it for our company truck that had trapped air in a very large multi level cooling system. It worked well in helping us find small leaks & finally removing the trapped air in the system.Well made also.
Worked perfectly! Takes the guess work out of purging your cooling system. Lots of attachments for various vehicles. No leaks either &#34;Not a drip!&#34;
What a great idea some one had and I just discovered it.  All the time I've wasted through out the years trying to get the cooling system burped.  Almost burnt up a motor in my Motor Home because of air bubbles. %$#& Da?m Chevys.  Been a few others over the years that did not want to burp either, but now no more problems.
This item came with every thing, in fact I think is too much, cause some of us don't need so many parts. I have two cars and both of them just use the same radiator cap and both don't have any angle and I was trying to send e-mail to the seller and see how I can return those parts I don't need and maybe get some thing in return.So far, it look a good tool to have it, haven't use it yet but look good that's why I just gave 4 stars and for that unnecessary amount of parts.------Updating : I use it twice and it work, very easy, very nice./
I drained and flushed my cooling system this Saturday and after I was done I noticed my engine was running a tad bit warmer than it was prior to the coolant flush and refill.  After diagnosing the issue I was sure I had a large air bubble some where in the system.This funnel is exactly what I needed.  Today I got home and waited for the car to cool back down.Took the radiator cap of and put on the appropriate adapter (each cap adapter has a corresponding plastic insert that goes into the radiator opening, look for the matching letter on both the adapter and insert.  Put the adapter over the insert and lock it on.  Now put the funnel into the adapter and now it's ready to use.I put the plastic plug rod I to the funnel to stop the flow and filled it half way with coolant.  I started the car and put the heat up tot he highest temp and turn the blowers to the lowest setting.  I took out the plug rod and some of the coolant got sucked into the radiator.  There was still a fair amount  in the funnel.The engine reached it's temp, I let it idle a 2500 rpm and burp!  Air started to be released into the funnel and more coolant was drawn in.  When I was done I put the plug rod back into the funnel and carefully removed it and placed the funnel into the coolant bottle and released the plug.  It was the cleanest &#34;Spill Free&#34; coolant task I've ever done thanks to this funnel!
I use theses towels when I detail my vehicles. They are pretty good quality towels and you can't beat the price. I wanted to get some towels that will not add swirls to my paint and these are doing a fine job. I purchased two packs of these and use them strictly for quick detailing and taking off polish, glaze, and sealant. I have cheaper ones that I use on the inside, engine, and wheels. There are better towels but for the price these are very good.
They're towely towels. What more could you want?They absorb quite a bit of water, and have been through multiple washes without tarnishing (fibers stay upright).Seem to be pretty good towels.
Nice thick soft towels! If you are into keeping your vehicle looking good the Chemical Guys are a name you need to know.
These work great, dry well with no swirls and have held up well to many washings now. I will continue to restock as these get lost, borrowed or worn out.
I ordered these Professional Grade Premium Microfiber Towels, Gold 16&#34; x 16&#34; (Pack of 3) MIC_506_03 from Chemical Guys after I realized drying off the wet car windows to avoid spots was using up all my paper towels.  These microfiber towels absorb well and virtually all the rain drops can be done away with as needed.  Soft and clean again after a wash they should last quite a while and the paper towels don't go away so fast now.
Extremely soft and well-made. They make removing wax or detail spray a breeze. I wouldn't recommend using them to dry as they do not soak-up water like other towels, but you'll love these for detailing interiors and they make wax removal and buffing a breeze. Sometimes it isn't just the product you use, but a combination of things, ie product, technique, tools.
Works well.A bit thicker and denser than most microfiber towels.Not sure what that &#34;professional&#34; grade meant ? So over used term.there are better buy else where.
I like these towels for quick detail and rinseless washes.  Well worth the price, I have some Carrand towels that are similar, but they are $10 each. Chemical Guys are doing it right.
My first set of big plush MF towels and they are great for wax removal and hand polishing. I was surprised and being so large you have larger surface area per flip for a clean side.
I would recommend these towels.We use them, and microfiber is one towelthat won't put scratches and swirl marks in a paints finish.All microfiber works well but low price towels may notresult in the best quality product. If you buy cheap you get cheap.These towels are good quality towels, and my car deserves no less.Show Car Guys 3 - Pack of Ultra Blue Plush Microfiber Towels 16" X 24 "- At 360 GSM This Is the Ultimate Microfiber Cleaning Cloth-this Big Ultra Plush Has Micro Fiber Material on One Side - The Other Side Consists of Medium Terry Microfiber Material.
Nice soft towels and good size but not impressed with the large border. Fold so as not to get the border in the way of paint surface.
I like to detail my own vehicle and soft poslishing cloths are a must to have to get the wax off.  These good so far.
Not bad of towel.  Much better than the bulk price club towels.  This is an upgrade to have for wax or polish
These are really good towels, especially at this price point.There a lill bigger at 16x24 I wouldn't go any larger then this especially if you use them for drying which it don't. The big towels are a bear to squeeze the water out of.My main use is for buffing after a spray waxing or waterless-rinseless washes. This is my second set and should last awhile.Are there better towels on the market, absolutely! But they come at a premium price, these are right in pocket.
