Child Car Seat Covers – They Really Are a Good Thing

As a parent or parent to be, you know that every child needs to be in a car seat…for a VERY long time!

This is fine for newbies who buy a pink car seat for their little girl because it is pink and they like the pattern. But then along comes Johnny and he can’t sit in a pink car seat. So, here you are left with an infant car seat carrier that was barely used, but cannot be used again. Now I must say that most parents or parents-to-be do not use much forethought when it comes to the initial products that they purchase for their little one. If a novice parent says you need it, you get it. No questions asked. But what we tend to forget is that baby products have a life value like a car. As soon as you buy it and drive out of the parking lot, it looses its value because another new and updated version will be on the shelf in five minutes. This holds true for car seats, both infant and toddler. Now, if you are a consumer this may not bother you too much because you do not mind spending the $150-$300 on a new and improved version. However, there is now a much easier, cuter and cheaper way to change the look of your car seat.

These cuter and easier ways are possible because of replacement car seat covers. These covers are always fashionable and hip for the trendy parent. Some covers are just that, fashionable and hip. Other covers while being trendy, also serve a purpose. The cover actually has a waterproof backing to it that stops any spills and messes from soaking through to the original manufacturers cover.

Suspension Tuning – A Guide

Your ride may look hot and even have a powerhouse under the hood. However, without the right suspension, your ride is no more than second best. Regardless of how much power you have under the hood, a tuned suspension is vital.  Without the right suspension, adding too much power to your car can be detrimental. A finely tuned suspension will keep your tires where they are supposed to be: on the road. Additionally, a good suspension will reduce body flex and roll through turns, resulting in faster times, less under steer and other benefits.

So, what do you need to tune your suspension? What items are included in the suspension? Here are the answers to a few of those questions.   First, you should start by lowering your ride height. Coilovers offer you the best way to do this. However, if you purchase lowering springs, make sure you get a camber kit to keep your alignment in check. Coilovers will let you adjust your ride height as needed, unlike lowering springs, which provide a fixed height.

Lower Emissions – Lower Fuel Bills – Take Action Now

A Taxi company from Rye in East Sussex is taking steps to lower its carbon emissions and is reaping the benefits of lower fuel bills in the process by having “Hydroxy Injection Systems” fitted to its vehicles.

The revolutionary system works by using the surplus electricity created by the alternator to split water into its 2 main elements of Hydrogen & Oxygen.

The resulting gas which is known as “Hydroxy Gas” or “Browns Gas” is fed into the engine and mixed with the air and fuel, which in turn helps the fuel burn faster and more completely whilst reducing the amount of harmful carbons created by up to 70%, therefore making the engine much more fuel efficient.
