Car Washing Device - 14L CBS

I was hunting for a suitable portable washing device to perform some light cleaning in between my car wash. The device has to be relatively cheap, easy to operate and carry minimally 10 liters of water.

There are a couple of options for me to choose from: ranging from garden water pumps to the more sophisticated car washing devices are usually battery operated.

It's been quite awhile since I have updated my blog. During this period, several enhancements have been done to my Red Riding Hood. Other than the rear sway bar, I have bought a Ignition Project coil pack, a Forge atmospheric dump valve kit, Eibach Pro kit lowering springs and a pair of rare Volkswagen approved Polo 6R MS Design Daytime Running Lights (DRL)!

Forth modification - The hunt for the Head Unit


When I take delivery of the car, I was wondering if the RCD 310 was iPod friendly. To my dismay, I could only connect my iPod through the AUX. As days passed, I found that this was not a very good way whereby the forwarding of a track was concerned when I was driving. Furthermore, there was no built in GPS and the OE VW Bluetooth add on costs an arm and leg. Thus the search was on for a Headunit which could fulfill my requirement.

Electronic Toxins and Safety Procedures To Help Protect Oneself

Repost from mesothelioma.com

Electronic Toxins in Automobiles

Automobiles contain a variety of toxic substances that can enter your body through your skin and by breathing. Inside of your car, heavy metals and other toxins, including mercury, cesium, cadmium and barium are contained within the electronic components of the vehicle. These toxins are primarily within the microchips and liquid crystal display (LCD) screens found on your dashboard and on accessories such as portable geographic positioning system (GPS) units.
The plastics in your vehicle, which make up your dashboard, console, storage compartments, covering of your steering wheel, and components of your vehicle's carpeting, floor mats and safety belts may contain bisphenol A (BPA), which is an endocrine disruptor that can cause hormonal problems when it enters your bloodstream. The heat of the sun can leach this chemical out of the plastics, as can scratches and dings caused by everyday use.
