Used Stuff

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

Recently, the problem is successfully solved if implemented simple replacement lamp dimensions to LED lamps. LED marker lights, until recently, had one problem - blue. Traffic police officers can stop you and tell you the color mismatch marker lamps, because the blue marker lights 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, an 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 as I was assured, they are fun. Of course, skirting W5W more common than T4W, therefore, failed to immediately and quickly find these lamps, but still I found them and bought them. Staged - 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, the 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 usual marker lamps. In total, I can say that I liked it, and I ride with them for quite a long time.

In our country, as we know there are two problems. One of them - the road. On our roads in contrast to Germany, dirty, and sometimes even the asphalt is missing. Rubber on wheels after some travel attaches the wheels a nice shine dusty bits of dirt in the sun. Of course, the washing machine a little help to correct the situation, and the wheels do not seem decadal. However, its former luster of new tires anymore. It is for this invented cleaner (or sometimes air conditioning) tires. It gives a deep black color, and the car looks beautiful. Before the first trip to a muddy road So if most of the time planning to ride on the asphalt, then after washing use different cleaners. This time my test was bought cleaner tires and bumpers branded NEKKER, bought me in a supermarket ribbon. The results of the use is not encouraging. Or what I can not understand how to use it, or something we did not finish In brief - 300 ml bottle was enough for me literally doubled. Of course, the wheels after such funds look nice, but sorry, I do not make sense 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.

Nearly all modern car circuit protected by fuses in order to avoid fire in the event of a short circuit or overload. Selection of fuses are now more than great, although the manufacturer for the most part from one country, native of China, we Nevertheless, I met fuses disgusting quality that breaks into two halves, or their own contacts were thinner than necessary and the fuse is not kept in a cage. But buying fuses CarPoint tape in the store, was not wrong with the choice of such bonded fuses the most comfortable to use.
Such lever automotive fuses fit in any fuse box Vaz models such as 2108 (3), 21099, 2109, 2110, 2111, 2112, 2113, 2114, 2115 and as many foreign cars.
Replacement fuses installed in fuse box is quite simple, with special tweezers for fuses, but alas in this set are not included, although usually many sets they have.
It is important to make a replacement under the scheme fuses, not to confuse the denominations and to establish a-same value, or slightly less. Main no more, because it is already dangerous. By the way, if the road was burned before such as 15A, but with a such was not, feel free to change at 10A if any at hand, because in most cases, guards are placed with some margin, and the equipment can operate with lower load current than built into the fuse.
Marking fuse marked at the end of that denomination was evident then when the fuse is set in the fuse box.
And remember, it is better to buy a car fuse in advance, what to look for it in the road, when the nearest store in the 200 km

I saw in the store such a thing, like a dry sponge, and decided to check what it is. Cloth is not always convenient to wipe the dust in the saloon car, and I think it will be easier with a sponge.
Вобщем, sponge very well to cope with its responsibilities. The dust clears - but the panel does 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 structure is much more convenient rubbing with rough surfaces, of which abound in the car number.
Total, I am pleased with the result, although from time to time the sponge is already beginning to crumble a little, but crumbled - buy a new, painfully I liked it

Not so long ago in the rain, said that under the window seal in my car a bit of moisture, which means that the leak is not 100% apricot orchards. Therefore we had to go out and buy silicone sealant clear to fluff sealant. 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. Basically, all the colors of their properties are the same, but somewhere to see where sealant smeared, but somewhere on the contrary, it is better not to see
So what are the properties inherent in all colors of silicone sealants for automotive? Key - a heat-resistant silicone sealant and oil resistant. Owned so in heating detail you can use it without fear, because such a high temperature sealant - for maximum operating temperature is "only" 260 degrees! There is really unpleasant feature in the sealant - removal of the silicone sealant can basically only mechanical action. That is no chemistry solidified sealant no longer takes. They say that you can heat the sealant - silicone to a high temperature, something around 200 degrees, and it becomes more plastic, to again remove it by mechanical means. Therefore, removal of silicone sealant, which got no where to go, must be made not later than 24 hours - this is the curing time of silicone sealant. He wiped off the regular cloth, it is true rags have a great deal, since it is very greasy, and if the cloth has got sealant, then further wiping a cloth will only spread sealant over the surface.

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