Sylvania 9007SU BP SilverStar Ultra High Performance Halogen Headlight - Pack of 2 Review

I recently purchased a 2007 Nissan Frontier SE pick-up.I noticed it had the reflective headlights when I purchased it, but thought no furthur about it until my first night back roads(dark) drive. We have a lot of deer in the area, and hardly a night goes by that I do not have them cross the road in front of me.I could not see more than 100 feet in front of me on dim and about 125 feet on bright, it seemed, and was hesitant to drive more than 30-35 mph. I found myself ducking down to try to see under the light/dark edge.I was amazed to hear my wife describe the same feeling.I hated to drive at night.I contacted the local Nissan dealer and asked if the lights could be adjusted.The service manager acted like I was crazy and said they had not had this problem before, and was no help at all.I contacted Nissan headquarters who were even less help.They told me to contact the local dealers who were independently owned, and would be glad to furnish me a list of the area dealers.What a joke.I asked for help to solve a serious problem to me and got the brush off from Nissan on what I considered a serious design problem.I have a friend who has a Titan and does not have the reflective type lights and has no problems. So, Internet here I come.I found the Sylvania Silverstar Ultra lights, and started reading the reviews.Almost all were raves about how much it helps night driving.So, I decided to purchase some.BEST PURCHASE I HAVE MADE IN SOME TIME!!!! These lights made night driving so much easier.I can now see down the road.I would recommend these lights, and have, to anyone who feels their night vision is impaired by insufficient lighting by their automobile.Thanks Sylvania for fixing my problem.

Product Description:
Sylvania SilverStar Ultra High Performance Halogen Headlight is fashioned for brighter and whiter light. It has dual filament for both high beam and low beam. This operates with internal gas pressure which significantly reduces the rate of tungsten evaporation. Its analogous non-halogen incandescent lamp operates the same filament temperature with greater luminance and efficiency. This combined effect of higher pressure and the halogen cycle give halogen lamp much longer life.

EF Products - R-134a Recharge & Retrofit Kit (323) Review

I got this kit to retrofit/repair my '92 toyota's failing a/c system.It has been a few months now since I used it and the a/c works perfectly.The leaks are gone, the compressor works quitely and the system seems to work even colder than before.A local a/c shop quoted me $381 for recharging the system, it would have been higher for detecting and fixing any leaks.

EF Products - R134a with SubZero Synthetic A/C Booster, Reusable Recharge Hose and Inline Gauge, 19 oz. (345) Review

First off i read Jin's review and gotta say...you have no clue how to use any tech whatsoever! check it out:

1- the can has instructions! read'em
2- the gauge has to be de-pressurized (hence the screwdriver or some item that create a release for the internal pin (looks like a tire pin, you deflate tires the same way. bam!
3-in short if you never have done it use gloves because tension and tight spaces causes stress that gloves prevent. A/C has to be running! (turn on (AC) not just the fan! make sure your AC light illuminates to tell you that the "chill" is going through the car the compressor pulls the freon out from the can as it runs. if not...all you do is cause gas to build in the umbilical hose.
4- to tweek the PSI you have to turn the nozzle and adjust on the fly (detailed instructions! i'm military and i know how to follow them, people who served know how to follow instructions as police and medics and the like. whats with people who can't follow WRITTEN instructions! you're killin me noobtastic 1 star rater! you made me laugh tonight.

Q Industries HV40A2 SuperFlow Portable Air Compressor with LED Light Review

Ok.. I didn't get this from Amazon. I got it from Steve's Tools for about 5$ more.
Needed it now because my old crappy $15 pump finally died.

Pros.
Real smooth and well balanced.This thing doesn't jump around at all.
Fill speed is good, but not for large tires.
For those get the version that clamps to battery terminals.

This one topped off my P255-75R15 in decent time.
However, filling up my 60PSI doughnut spare took a while.
I don't think there is much head space for the higher pressures.
This is where the screw-on air chuck was useful.

The pressure gauge actually works and is accurate.
The switches are separate for pump and LED lights.

The handle is actually a metal heat shield for the output.
Run this pump for a while airing up a 60 PSI spare and you
will understand why it needs a heat shield.

The unit comes with a bag.Not the highest quality but
sufficient for storing the pump and a few other odds and ends.

Cons.
The screw-on air chuck can be a pain, but just overfill a bit before taking it off.
The air hose is adequate for reaching front and back tires on one side,
but you have to move the pump from one side of the vehicle to the other.
The LED lamps aren't that bright, and the blinkers are only three white LEDs.
You have to put in a red filter.They should have been red LEDs.

I'm reserving comment on the lighter connector.Looks a bit cheap compared to the
rest of this unit.

All in all I'm happy.

Slime COMP06 Pro Power Heavy-Duty Tire Inflator Review

I'm writing this review because the Amazon description doesn't inform you that you NEED 15 amps to power the device as clearly stated in the owner's manual. Unfortunately, I didn't know this before purchase so when I plugged it into my Honda Pilot which only supplies 10 amps, it didn't work. I called Slime customer service who confirmed that all their products require 15 amps.

Check your car owner's manual to make sure your power socket supplies 15 amps!

I'm giving it 5 stars because the device itself looks very high quality with a nice storage case. Slime customer service was also speedy and helpful. Too bad the Amazon item description was inadequate.

UPDATE: I have since bought the Black & Decker ASI300 Air Station Inflator which works great with my car.

Short / Open Circuit Finder and Circuit Tracer - Supersedes SHFFF300 Review

The description of the product brochure states that the `short' is much easier to detect with this tool then the `open'. In reality it is almost true. The problem is that in automotive world we usually see bundles of wires, which is the biggest flaw of this detector. The bundle of wires absorbs the signal and makes it weak in `short' cases and practically impossible to trace in `open' circuits. In addition, if you have a light bulb on one end of the circuit and a `short' on the other, you will be chasing a wild goose. The best advice to those who decides to buy this product is practice, more and more because it is the only way to figure out the way this tool works.

Grip Tech 96011 Contour Wipe Out, clamshell Review

I am from the old school of detailing - use only super clean soft 100% cotton rags to wipe down a vehicle after a thorough wash.I thought these would surely scratch the dickens out of the paint finish and leave cavernous gouges.Boy, was I ever wrong.These will not scratch the paint as long as the surface is very clean.It sure cuts the drying time to almost nothing.A quick follow up with a chamois to get those hard to reach spots and you are done.If you drop the squeegy be sure to clean it well before using it again to avoid any potential scratching from the dirt.

Actron CP5011 Panel, Trim and Molding Removal Set Review

A professional tool company,one that visits dealers and repair shops weekly,sells this same exact tool set for almost double the price...I bought the "pro" set several years ago for work and the Actron set last year for home.

There's also a similar set here,from Neiko Tools. It looks similar but they're not the same. A coworker has those and the plastic is harder,it does not "give" like the Actrons so you risk the chance of damaging interior panels.

One review criticized the lack of instructions for this set,no offense but if you can't figure it out you should not be working on cars.

Sylvania H3ST BP SilverStar 55-Watt High Performance Halogen Headlight Review

I ordered these after I finally got around to replacing my 1997 Jeep Wrangler's headlights with Silverstars. These were for my foglights and between those and the headlights light brightness and reach were increased 50%. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because my BMW's have xenons and those are better still. I was next to a Lexus with regular lights one morning and mine were definitely brighter. A friend with a 2003 Jeep Wrangler is planning to get some after seeing the difference.

World's Best Universal Oil Filter Wrench Review

It's well built and inexpensive. It does the job well.I think the inventor was very considerate in a way that he included an adapter nut, giving you an option to use either a torque wrench or a spanner.

Product Description:
We've tried almost every different oil filter wrench configuration available; adjustable-band models are a good idea but require side clearance.Sized 'cup' wrenches are effective but expensive and fit just one size filter.We were hopeful but skeptical when we found this wrench.We put it to the test on four different vehicles, each with unique and challenging filter placements--obviously designed by engineers who don't change their own oil.One required a LONG reach through a fender-wall flap and another in an unbelieveably cramped compact import.The filters ranged in size from 2-5/8" to 3-1/2" and at least one had been WAY over-tightened.This amazing wrench adapted flawlessly to each one--we removed and replaced filters in record time and didn't swear once.Solid hardened-steel construction and components with corrosion-resistant black-oxide finish; proudly offered with fit-guarantee and a lifetime warranty.

FRAM CF10135 Fresh Breeze Cabin Air Filter-Pack of 2 Review

I was getting new tires on the wife's car when the tire shop asked if I wanted to change the cabin air filter for $70.I passed on the option since it only takes $15 and less than 5 minutes to change the cabin air filters on the 2002 Honda Civic EX.I also changed these in the spring and felt they should have lasted longer than they did.Well sure enough, I got home and inspected the filters and they were dirty.I guess driving in the city takes it's toll.I was going to pick up some replacements at the local autoshop.However, they were $20 a piece.I figured, I'd check out Amazon to see what they had going.I picked up the CF10135 for the Civic and CF10134 for my Accord.The price couldn't be beat at $25 and some change for both and free shipping.

The CF10135 is a perfect fit replacement part for a 2002 Honda Civic.The A/C definitely puts out more air and is fresh.We'll see how well the extra benefits of the Fresh Breeze are real or not later down the road.However, for the price it's a great replacement part even if the Fresh Breeze doesn't make it smell like roses.
