Used Stuff

Many car enthusiasts love to have their car looked good. Overall lights of cars, or rather the front parking lights on most cars have one feature. If the lights that shine a pure white light, the color marker lamps stands on their background, giving a yellowish light of headlamps. That if the lamp dimensions combined in a single reflector with a beam headlamps. And if the bulb dimensions are in a separate module, usually beam or a separate lamp, then certainly seen as a different shade of dipped headlights and dimensions. When using incandescent lamps, this problem is not so relevant, although also present, but the use of xenon problem was more acute, because the whole "beauty" of xenon spoiled yellow dimensions

Recently, this problem is successfully solved if implemented simple replacement lamp dimensions to LED lamps. LED marker lights, until recently, had one problem - blue. Employees traffic police can stop you and point you to the color of marker lights, because the blue marker lamps are not allowed SDA, allowable colors - white and yellow. Usually in such cases can prove that they are white, but it is unnecessary problems. The problem is that cheaper LEDs have a blue hue. More expensive are generally white. Plus, one LED can not always shine brightly enough. Some craftsmen managed to collective self-LEDs in size, but it is not easy and not everyone can.

On the recommendation of friends decided to buy and try Sho Me LED dimensions for which the price is not very low, but both assured me they are worth. Of course, skirting W5W more common than T4W, therefore, could not be immediately and quickly find these lamps, but still I found them and bought it. Put - and was very pleased. In pure white light bulbs dim light is not visible yellow color marker lamps. Of course, if only to stand with the included dimensions, a small bluish tint still there, but because they were designed for use with xenon, against which they would not be allocated. LED size, which I tried earlier, were more blue tint. Lamps shine brighter than the conventional marker lamps. On the whole, I can say that I liked them, and I ride with them already for a long time.

In our country, as we know there are two problems. One of them - the road. On our roads unlike Germany, dirty, and sometimes even the asphalt is absent. Rubber on wheels after some travel wheels attached to a pleasant dusty luster and shine of pieces of dirt in the sun. Of course, the washing machine a little help to correct the situation, and the wheels do not look decadal. However, the former luster of new tires anymore. It was invented for this purpose cleaner (or sometimes air conditioning) tires. It gives a deep black color, and the car looks beautiful. Before the first trip on a muddy road Therefore, if most of the time planning to ride on the asphalt, then after washing and use different cleaners. This time my test was bought cleaner buses and bumper-branded NEKKER, I have purchased in the supermarket tape. The results of the use is not reassuring. Or what I can not understand how to use it, or us something not telling Briefly - cylinder capacity of 300 ml was enough for me literally doubled. Of course, since this means the wheels look nice, but sorry, do not see any reason to buy a cleaner at 2-3. My previous experience has shown that the funds in liquid form in a bottle for spraying enough for more. In principle, only on the further desire to buy the tool I had not arisen.

Almost all modern car circuit protected by fuses, to avoid fire in case of short circuit or overload. Selection of fuses are now more than a large, although the manufacturer for the most part from one country, native of China, we Nevertheless, I met fuses repulsive qualities that are broken up into two halves, or you can contact were thinner than necessary and the fuse is not kept in a holder. But buying fuses CarPoint tape in the store, not wrong with the choice of such glued fuses the most convenient to use.
Such lever automotive fuses fit in any fuse block Vaz models such as 2108 (3), 21099, 2109, 2110, 2111, 2112, 2113, 2114, 2115 and as many foreign cars.
Replacing fuses installed in fuse block is quite simple, with special tongs fuses, but alas in this set are not included, although usually many sets they have.
It is important to replace fuses in accordance with the scheme, so as not to confuse the denominations and to establish a-same value, or slightly less. Main no more, because it is already fraught. By the way, if the road was burned before such as 15A, and with them such was not, please feel free to change the 10A if any at hand, because in most cases, fuses are placed with some margin, and the equipment can operate with lower load current than incorporated in fuses.
Marking fuse marked at the end of that denomination was evident then when the fuse is installed in the fuse block.
And remember, it is better to buy the car fuse in advance, what to look for it in the road, when the nearest store in the 200 km

Saw in the store such a thing as a dry sponge, and decided to check what it is. Cloth is not always easy to wipe the dust in the saloon car, but I think it will be easier with a sponge.
Vobschem, sponge very well to cope with its responsibilities. The dust clears - but the panel is not electrified, and does not attract dust again, that is very bad. Sponge from eminent manufacturer DoctorWax itself is soft and pleasant to the touch, unlike the rags, and due to its porous and elastic structures are much more comfortable when wiping rough surfaces, whom the car plenty of quantity.
Total, I am pleased with the result, although occasionally a little sponge is already beginning to crumble, but as a crumble - buy a new, painfully I liked it

Not so long ago in the rain, said that under the seal of glass in my car a bit of moisture, which means that the leak is not 100% apricot orchards. So had to go and buy a transparent silicone sealant to seal fluff. In principle, sealers come in different colors, and the idea can promazyvayut and black rubber gasket, but somehow, historically, that for these purposes using a transparent or clear silicone sealant. Also, historically, that the red abro sealant used for sealing various gaskets and hoses in the engine cooling system and so on. In principle, all the colors of their properties are the same, but somewhere to see where the sealant smeared, but somewhere on the contrary, it is better not to see
So what characteristics are inherent in all colors of silicone sealants for automotive? Key - a heat-resistant silicone sealant and oil resistant. Owned so in a heated detail you can use it without fear, because such a high temperature sealant - for maximum operating temperature "only" 260 degrees! There is really unpleasant feature a sealant - removal of the silicone sealant can basically only the mechanical effect. That is no chemistry solidified sealant no longer take. They say that it is possible to heat the sealant - silicone high temperature, something around 200 degrees, and it becomes more plastic, to again remove it by mechanical means. Therefore, removal of silicone sealant, which has got no where to go, must be made not later than 24 hours - this is the time of drying silicone sealant. It is usually wiped with a rag, rags really have to be very much, so it is very greasy, and if the cloth has got the sealant, then further wiping a rag will only smear the sealant over the surface.

By the way, I saw once at a service tool, which the master is very good and convenient sealant squeezed from a tube, so I decided to try to make yourself a the same. In principle, nothing complicated, everything is clear from the photographs. The main thing - to find a very strong wire, so as not to bend when forces are applied, and does not exert too much effort - one tube, I just broke when I was too fast and started to squeeze
