Husky Liners Classic Style Custom Fit Molded Front Floor Liner for Select Dodge/Chrysler Models (Bl

Husky Liners Classic Style Custom Fit Molded Front Floor Liner for Select Dodge/Chrysler ModelsNot as stout as weathertech mats, but a great value. I would buy these again. The fit was excellent.

UPDATE;

These mats have been in the car since 2009 and its 2013 now. They still fit pretty well, but have shrunken and don't fit the contours quite as perfectly as they did new. No big deal IMO, and I still give them a hearty recommendation.

Just flat out awesome! Great material, perfect fit, comfortable on the feet, easy to remove/install for cleaning. Live in Washington state and always outdoors. Shoes/boots/cleats are never clean. Now my car doesn't have to be a mess! When gatorade or water spills...I'm protected!

Virtual Reality Sound Labs Bluetooth Speaker Car Kit

Virtual Reality Sound Labs Bluetooth Speaker Car KitGot this unit as a Christmas gift. Here are some pros & cons in the event you're thinking of purchasing it:

PROS:

IT WORKS!

It sounds GREAT!

It linked up with my Bluetooth phone quickly (I use a Samsung model)!

It's ESPECIALLY handy with voice recognition Bluetooth devices. (I just tell it to call a name in my cellphone directory, and it does the rest!)

The price is reasonable for what this does.

It's one of the few devices of this type that has a big display area for the phone number, HOWEVER...(see CONS below)...

It's easy to operate!

It seems to hold a full charge for a long time period (at least a week so far for me).

CONS:

It only comes with a 30 day warranty!

It needs to be charged for 2-4 hours when the battery drains. The problem is, the ONLY way they suggest you charge it is through your vehicle's cigarette lighter. (No adapter to charge it in our home.) And they suggest NOT charging it when you aren't in your vehicle. I don't know about you, but I seldom drive around town for 2-4 hours. (FYI, I just left it plugged in while I was at home and all worked well.)

The "log" area is supposed to keep track of calls in and out by way of logging them with a 0-5 first digit in front of them so you know which calls were most recent. The unit I have puts no such digit in front of the number. And there are some mysterious numbers in the log I have no idea who they belong to which DO have a #1 in front of all of them. (There are no 0, 2, 3, 4, or 5 numbered calls to be found! All the "mystery" numbers have a "1" in front of them.)

While this unit DOES have a large display area for the number, it's hard to see in bright light.

Hope these PROS/CONS help you to decide if you want to purchase it. Would I buy it again? Yes, I think I would. Mainly because I believe the pros outweigh the cons...especially the fact that it really DOES work for hands-free calling. After all, isn't that why you're REALLY thinking about buying something like this?

Good luck in your decision.

This item was purchased for my son for father's day. He is a person who loves to use his cell phone while driving. My son contacted me upon installation of this item. I was surprised at the clarity in sound. I asked to call him back to see if the clarity would be fine whether receiving or sending a call, it was I am impressed.

I purchased one of these today at CostCo and tried it out on my way home. It linked up to my Sony Ericson easily but the sound quality was poor. I called my wife who said the sound was not clear but rather muffled sounding. I had the unit mounted on my sun visor about 8" from my face. It also sounded muffled to me over the speaker. We have a Prius which is a quiet car, I was driving 60mph on the freeway. The sound volume was sufficient.

I'm going to return it. Too bad because the idea is great. I actually refrained from purchasing it on the spot yesterday. I came home and read the comments here on Amazon.com, my source of user comments. The comments were largely supportive so I went back today to buy it.

You may want to try it yourself. Who knows I may have purchased a poorly working example.

Battery life is excellent. Sound quality is average. Finally it meets expectation of easy to setup and use device. Value is definitely high keeping in mind one of the lowest prices among the similar devices'.

I got this to keep from neding to use my cell phone's speaker mode, which other callers reported as being muffled. This works much better the reports on audio quality are good. Battery life is pretty good too I only need to charge it every few weeks.

Premium Car Charger w/ Extra USB Charging Port for Motorola Triumph (Black)

Premium Car Charger w/ Extra USB Charging Port for Motorola Triumph
  • Advanced Green LED indicator
  • Extra USB charging port
  • Comfortable Hand-grip Design
  • Smart IC chip technology included to avoid overcharging
  • Includes OrionGadgets accessories pouch

I always hesitate to review a product that I have for less then month but this one appears to be a well built and does the job. I have not had any ocassion to use the extra USB charging port so I cannot comment on that. I hope it works but have found with other items such as dual chargers that come with a little fuse inside they often cannot take the power required to charge two items such as a GPS and cell. This one does not have a fuse as far as I can see so I am wondering what would happen. However, I purchased it for one purpose and its doing that quite well

12V 7.4AH Sealed Lead Acid (SLA) Battery for APC RS RS800 RS810 BACK-UPS

12V 7.4AH Sealed Lead Acid Battery for APC RS RS800 RS810 BACK-UPSMy APS RS 800 failed with a bad battery warning. I have another similar but single battery backup which I used to test the batteries. My volt meter showed correct voltage. Sure enough, one battery again failed the APC self test. The reviews were good and the price was good, so I purchased 2 new ones to insure a hopefully long and trouble free future. I had to re use the connectors and the tape that held the two batteries as one. So, far so good. We have repeated power interruptions and the APC and the new batteries are working flawlessly for at least 6 months. As usual the Amazon free shipping was faster than estimated. I am a very happy Amazon repeat customer.

GTMax Metalic Black 2-Port USB Car Charger Adapter 2A output for Cell Phone, SMartphone, Window Mob

GTMax Metalic Black 2-Port USB Car Charger Adapter 2A output for Cell Phone, SMartphone, Window Mobile Phone, Tablet, MP3 PlayersLove this thing its small and reliable. i love how it doesnt stick out too far so it look descent when plugged in.

This is a light weight car charger that allows you to charge more than one item at a time. I like this because I don't have to buy a new charger when I get a new phone again. The price is worth the buck. So glad I got this car charger. Saved a good amount of money and got great quality.

this item fits in a true "power point" port. i had previously bought another brand off of amazon, and though it did work it a cigarette lighter in my 80's truck, it was not long enough to work in my 2000's Honda power point.This one fits BOTH styles and seems to put out enough power to charge my digital media player and a Nintendo ds at the same time with no problems. Only weird thing is the media player thinks i plugged it into a computer instead of a usb charger.

UPDATE 3-14-13

unit quit working.the indicator light is still on showing power but it will not charge anything.I have tried many cables and all my usb devices, nada. I leave this plugged in the socket all the time, so perhaps that has something to do with it, however the longest time the car was on non stop was only an hour,and nothing was charging then. worked great for less than 2 months, now nothing.........

NOCO Genius GC007 Ultimate Smart Accessory Kit

NOCO Genius GC007 Ultimate Smart Accessory KitI needed the 10 foot extension cable, but the lighter adapter and extra set of alligator clips and permanent connectors come in extremely handy for other vehicles and battery operated equipment around the house. So if you're thinking about purchasing the NOCO Genius G750 6V/12V 750mA Fully Automatic Battery Charger and Maintainer (Grey) I would definitely recommend adding this to the order.

Thanks,

Figured you can never have too many accessories so I purchased the kit. Comes with clamps, cable, eyelet connectors, and plug connector. These are high quality products and seems like they are gonna last forever. I put them in different cars (attached with the quick connect) for conveience. Good price for great quality!

I have the the G3500 and the G7200. This is a great kit to extend the reach of the chargers or if you want to hard wire a battery to the adapter, especially a hard to reach battery like in a boat or trailer. I use the kit a lot and it is of the same quality as other NOCO products. Highly recommended!

This car charger works and it's very cheap. It was less than $5 with shipping. I would recommend buying two or more because they are very cheap, and also cheaply made, but they work.

Whistler XTR-190 Laser/Radar Detector Battery Operated with Built in Battery Charger

Whistler XTR-190 Laser/Radar Detector Battery Operated with Built in Battery Charger
  • Internal battery charger for wireless operation
  • 360º total band protection including POP mode radar
  • Tone alert with quiet/auto modes and alert priority
  • Icon display with dim/dark mode
  • Includes 3 AA rechargable batteries, windshield mounting hardware and power cord

The detection capabilities of this Radar detector are very good. It has not failed me thus far and it also filters pretty well. I give it a 3 though because I bought it specifically as I was after a cordless detector.

First issue, you need to charge the batteries first time round through the car lighter charger for 12 hrs (go figure that). Otherwise you would need to invest in a 12V switch power supply to charge outside of the car.

In any case, even after charging it, the battery life is very poor which renders this whole idea of cordless worthless.

So if you are not caught up on the cord vs cordless part, get the corded model and call it quits. You'll be satisfied.

ok, the other guy said this was bad but he doesnt know wat hes talking about, first off the sounds is so loud i have to use the VOLUME button to turn it down, and the only reason it turns off every hour is so that it doesnt drain the battery, people dont read direction, it is all clearly stated in the manual, so next before u write a review read up on the product directions first

Read Best Reviews of Whistler XTR-190 Laser/Radar Detector Battery Operated with Built in Battery Charger Here

I bought two of these, one for me, one for my fiance. These detectors work well for picking up VG2, traffic sensors on the highway, and at the grocery store. BUT, I've had at least 3 times when a cop has been pointing his radar gun right at me, and this detector did NOTHING. I even got a speeding ticket when the cop was viewable 1/4 mile away. His radar gun pointed right at me, and this detector did nothing.

The only thing it's good for is picking up the static radar that the police use, to monitor the speed of oncoming traffic, while they are driving. That will also let you know if a cop is nearby. Other than that, its a big heavy worthless waste of money.

I don't care about the lame screen, it's the audio that will alert you to look at it and check your speed.

The frist couple times that the cops were standing outside their car with their radar/lydar gun and it didn't go off, I figured that they were just trying to slow traffic, But no, this thing just doesn't do what it's supposed to do.

And it's happened with both of the ones I bought. You get what you pay for. And a speeding ticket.

Whistler makes good products, but not this one. They did something different, and it cost me $182 for the ticket plus $300 for a trsffic lawyer. I could have avoided this if I wasn't trying to be cheap.(and didn't speed all the time)But why else would you buy a detector? cause your a speeder, like me.

i would never tell any one to buy this. i bought it as a gift and when they went to use it , you could not hear the sound at all it dose not go high at all. and half the time it would shout off for no reason. they had it charged for a day and it would still turn off. this is not a good buy at all

ZOpid - Talking Universal Wireless Bluetooth Hands Free Car Kit / Speaker Phone with Built-in Recha

ZOpid - Talking Universal Wireless Bluetooth Hands Free Car Kit / Speaker Phone with Built-in Rechargeable Battery - HC-ZB323V
  • One of the best hands free car kits - 12 different voice prompts make it real easy to use
  • Bluetooth v1.2 - Works with any bluetooth enabled cell phone or PDA - Very easy to setup in car
  • Digital Signal Processing (DSP) for clear sound and noise cancellation - Supports voice dialing
  • Last number redial - 10 calls memory - Call transfer - Battery charging indicator
  • Built-in rechargeable Li-Polymer battery - Up to 10 hours talk time - Up to 230 hours stand by time

I have been using this carkit for almost a year and I am very pleased with the product quality. Over the year I have used the carkit with a few different cell phone models without any problem any minor issues that I have had were resolved by either consulting the user manual or visiting product-support website.

When I used the carkit for the first time I felt that the volume was not loud enough but the product support website had instructions on how to fix that problem the fix required adjusting the incoming-call volume on the cell phonewhich on most phones is adjusted while you are on a phone call. The volume adjustment is required again only if the phone settings are reset.

To use voice dialing from the carkit, when it's paired with my Motorola V3, I have to press the call button twice, instead of just once as documented in the user manual. Again, I found detailed instructions on voice dialing on product support website.

My wife uses my car sometimes, so my carkit has pairing information saved for her phone as well, which makes it easier for her to use the carkit while using my car as it does not require to repeat the pairing process.

Most of the voice prompts are very helpful, but I specially like the "end of call" prompt, because with most of the bluetooth handsfree devices you cannot tell if the call has ended, unless you look at the cell phone screen.

Buy ZOpid - Talking Universal Wireless Bluetooth Hands Free Car Kit / Speaker Phone with Built-in Recha Now

I purchased this item to compare with my other BT car kit Motorola T305 (reliable connection but not so great in sound and indication). It turns out this unit is a complete opposite.

The good sound quality, including the British-accent voice prompt from the device. It's good to know the current status of the unit and what it is doing. The volume is loud and clear. Never see the low-battery indication as I charge only once a week. (The power outlet on my car doesn't have power when the car is off and is mostly used for my radar detector.)

The bad connectivity: it took me 5 times to successfully pair with my Treo when I receive it. Once it's connected, it's often to drop the connection and pick up again after a few seconds. Occasionally it doesn't pick up anymore. Although so far it never drops the connection DURING a phone conversation, it's quite annoying to have to worry about it.

There is another unit almost identical but a little more expensive on amazon.com. May that's what the extra money is spent for.......

I was excited to get this product and finally be able to speak "hands free" while driving my vehicle. I have tried other blue tooth devices that fit over the ear and have never liked the way any of them have fit. I have three cell phones (one for personnal and two for work) and was looking forward to a device that could connect to all three. After using this device for a few days I was terribly disappointed with the perfomance. I continued to use it for several more weeks hoping for an improvement, but no luck. I have listed my opinions for pro's and con's to help you decide.

Pros: Holds a charge for several days and comes with an included car charger. Very large, bright LCD display for incoming calls. Voice prompts with number. Sorry, that's all of the good stuff.

CONS: Pairs to each of my three phones with no problem.... but NOT simultaneously. It automatically pairs to my work phone (the primary pairing) when the unit is initially turned on. The device won't pair with one of the other phones unless the primary is turned off or out of range. In other words, if my personnal phone rings, the device WON'T automatically swith to that device. This is a huge inconveinence and makes the multiple pairing feature virtually USELESS to me. Also, the speaker volume is TOO LOW, even at the maximum volume setting. What does this mean? It means I really CAN'T HEAR what the person I'm having a conversation with is saying. But that almost doesn't matter because everyone I've spoken to on the device has complained about not being able to hear me, or the line having TOO MUCH STATIC. Also, the voice dialing feature on my cell phone DOES NOT WORK through this device. In other words, I still have to pick up the cell phone and dial the digits on the keypad in order to make a call. There are other negatives, but I think you get the point.

My opinion is this is a TERRIBLE product, especially for the money paid ($60 plus shipping). I only wish someone else had taken the time to write a review prior to me WASTING MY MONEY on this.

DEWALT DC800KL 36-Volt 1/2-inch Lithium Ion Cordless Impact Wrench Kit with NANO Technology

DEWALT DC800KL 36-Volt 1/2-inch Lithium Ion Cordless Impact Wrench Kit with NANO TechnologyI really wanted to like this impact, and keep it for daily use in an auto shop environment....but it just didn't work out.

Number one was it does not seem to have the advertised torque capacity, I use Accutorq torque sticks on auto lug nuts, and this would not even get them torqued to 80 ft.lbs, where as my pneumatic

1/2 inch impact had no problems, was very disappointed with the power output, especially considering it's specs and being a 36 volt LiIon powered device.

Next deal breaker for me, and it may not be for some, is the socket retaining pin...it's a spring loaded PIN, which positively locks in the hole on an impact socket...you don't have to worry about the socket flying off, that is for sure...but in order to remove the socket, you have to manually depress the pin with a small screwdriver, punch, etc....not too good for changing sockets around in the middle of a complex job.

Lastly, I just plain did not care for the rocker style forward/backward power switch...and switch is the word...no varible speed here, it's either on or off....another less than ideal situation for automotive work.

I think this impact is more geared towards the construction trade, and if that is what you are using it for, it may very well be great. I just did not find it very appropriate for my application.

Had to snag the review title because its true. I use this thing to do everything from drive 6 inch lag bolts to 3 1/2 inch wood screws to work on my tractor. I am not sure if the other reviewer had a low battery or a bad tool but it can loosen 1 inch lugs on the tractor just fine that are torqued to will over 80 pounds 120 IIRC, if it can get them off it can put them on. I will use this to put them on nice and tight then I go to the hand torque wrench to get them to spec (Mountain 250lb). There is no adjustable torque setting but i didn't expect one as its not in the tool specifications. I love this tool and it is well worth the price. I ended up paying 420 for mine from TwinBargins (amazon retailer) when they were selling them cheaper. The fact that it comes with 2 batteries and a charger makes the tool itself very affordable when you factor in the individual costs. I would recommend this to everyone, especially if you have other 36 volt tools that can use the batteries.

A word to the wise, buy impact bits and sockets if you want frustration free driving. Also get this little ditty it doesn't come with it but it make the tool 10 times more useful.

Its a 1/2 to 1/4 hex adapter.

Skil 2346-01 3.6-Volt IXO2 Power Portable Screwdriver

Skil 2346-01 3.6-Volt IXO2 Power Portable ScrewdriverPROS: Small and easy to hold. Sturdy construction with a good set of bits included. Has a good amount of torque and can drive screws into solid wood without any problems.

CONS: The button to switch direction on the tool is too close to the trigger, I'm always hitting it accidentally. No clutch and just one speed, so you have to be careful about using it on delicate or precise jobs. I bought this on a golden box sale, but it still turns out I paid too much. There are other brands with better features for less money.

The product works extremely well. It is great for small projects that do not require a lot of tork, such as putting in electrical outlet screws. The newly added feature of the light is a great benefit. Amazon does have it listed by the wrong Brand name, it is not a Bosch name but a Skil brand name. Bosch owns Skil so that must be where the confusion comes from. I bought it becuase of the light because I had the original one without the light and wanted that benefit. I highly recomended it for light duty work.

Buy Skil 2346-01 3.6-Volt IXO2 Power Portable Screwdriver Now

I am very happy with this small cordless screwdriver. It has been great for placing screws in the wall for shelves, hooks, and blinds. Very easy to charge and use. Comes with plenty of different drill bits. Probably would not work for larger projects or putting screws into cement but works well with wood and plaster.

Read Best Reviews of Skil 2346-01 3.6-Volt IXO2 Power Portable Screwdriver Here

I got this as a Gold Box deal and have been absolutely thrilled with it. For quick jobs around the house, the Skil IXO2 cannot be beat. The device itself feels very well-constructed and designed, with a rubberized grip and solid weight. It's also nice and small, fitting in tighter spaces than the pole-style cordless screwdrivers, and it provides a good amount of torque, even being able to screw nails into wood. That being said, don't throw away your high-torque cordless drill/driver. This thing is really for the tons of random small household tasks you have to face week after week, like tightening up cabinet screws, unscrewing battery covers, assembling cheap furniture, etc., and at that, it excels. Part of the huge convenience factor is its included charging cradle. When you're done with your job, you just throw it back into the cradle no need to fit a plug in, fiddle with it to get it clicked into the charger, etc. Speaking of charging, the internal, non-replaceable lithium-ion battery seems to last for quite some time I've never come close to exhausting it and I've not seen any degradation in performance in the year I've owned it. The yellow LED light on the front I initially thought to be a useless gimmick, but it has proved inordinately useful when working in areas without good lighting, like inside a cabinet, under the sink, etc. There are also an impressive 22 bits that come with it, including a a small drill to make pilot holes in a pinch, but, truthfully, I've used maybe 3 of them small philips, large philips, flathead. That being said, bit changes are quick pull out the old bit by the tip, put in the new bit.

Downsides? Some people have remarked on the rotation direction button being too easy to trigger accidentally, but, truthfully, I have never had that problem. Otherwise, I have nothing bad to say about this tool.

Bottom line: get it and be amazed at how capable and convenient this thing is when you're doing regular maintenance around the house.

Want Skil 2346-01 3.6-Volt IXO2 Power Portable Screwdriver Discount?

This is a great little tool with plenty of torque for most routine jobs around the house. When a little extra is needed, you can press the direction button to its center position to lock the chuck, allowing screws to be turned by hand. Charge time is quick and the Li-Ion battery runs plenty long and keeps its charge well between uses. My only complaint is that the direction change/chuck lock button is poorly located. When set for reverse direction, I am always hitting that little button with my index finger and knocking it into the locked or forward direction. Mildly annoying flaw in an otherwise outstanding tool.

Amzer Nano 5W USB Car Charger

Amzer Nano 5W USB Car ChargerI listen to audio books during my commute using the Mai Coffee Cup Portable Speaker System. This little charger is perfect for keeping the speaker charged without me having to remember to take it out of the car just to charge it. As my coffee cup holder sits right below my car's accessory port, it's low profile does not get in the way. Very pleased with this product.

Motorola T5410 Talkabout FRS Two-Way Radio

Motorola T5410 Talkabout FRS Two-Way RadioI love taking my family on winter and ski vacations. I also love going to different and remote ski resorts. I found myself booking a vacation in Eden, Utah which is town just minutes away from a true skiing paradise... Powder Mountain. The only thing that I don't like about this beautiful mountain resort is the lack of any reliable cellular service. That forced me to purchase a bunch of walkie talkies to help my family stay connected. The Motorola T5410 proved to be a good choice. It is compact, light, low cost, and reliable. It does lack some of the features of my more expensive Midland walkie talkies, but makes up for it by being simpler to operate and lighter in weight. I was able to use the Motorola all over the mountain and the sound quality remained way above average. All in all, this is a good quality walkie talkie with a fair price that also performs well in real world situations.

Excelvan FM TRANSMITTER for iPhone 5 4S 4 3GS 3G iPod TOUCH MP3, Hands-Free
  • Brand: Excelvan. Please note the car charger is not compatible with Iphone, it is compatible with the FM transmitter and other 5 pin micro usb connector.

  • Provides hands-free conversations through your car speakers.
  • Built-in lithium battery ( Includes car charger ).
  • Dimensions: 58.5 x 30.0 x 11.5(mm)

This is wonderful to have. I get to listen to my own music on my ipod rather than my cd's. I recommend this item to anyone who is looking. It has a little feedback but not much. I gave it only 4 stars because it's very limited on it's range. I set my ipod directly on top of my radio and the antenna is just on the outside of the car to the right so I get a pretty good signal but if you bring it back a little then there is a lot more feedback.

Love the fact that I can plug in my charger cord right into it and charge my phone the same time it plays through the transmitter. However whenever I am listening to music through the transmitter, it will shut off quite a bit, and I have to turn it back on.

Want Excelvan FM TRANSMITTER for iPhone 5 4S 4 3GS 3G iPod TOUCH MP3, Hands-Free Discount?

I have no clue how many transmitter Ive given away to anyone that would want them, how many visit to best buy to purchase a fm transmitter, unfortunately the car I have is a mazda 6 and our cars have to cassette player option or an AUX option which brings me to have so many options of syncing my music on the phone to my car radio. This FM TRANSMITTER is the solution, The stations it picks up and the sound quality is amazing. The block itself does tend to move around but its not like your suppose to be in constant contact while your driving. One recommendation though purchase a bluetooth so you can talk because attached to this transmitter will be a little difficult to talk.

It works, but the quality is not up to par and using it with an iPhone 5 is less than perfect. Due to the placement of the 3mm jack on an iPhone 5, the display of the transmitter lines up with the back of the phone. You have to swivel the transmitter and have it hang off the side in order to see the phone display and transmitter display at the same time. The sound itself is ok, not great.
