Post by: Diesel on March 09, 2012, 09:34:42 PM: Well folks... with the advent of mobile phones, GPS systems, bluetooth comms, uhf CBs, Gameboy's and iPads, here is the latest "must have" for your glovebox with the Cig lighter socket in it.......

Only a few bucks from Taiwan - so maybe Brock can bring a few home with him when he visits there in April! :thumb

Got any "gadgets" we should all know about?

Cheers, Diesel

www.dealextreme.com (http://www.dealextreme.com)

They do all sorts of things all of which are very cheap and they feature free shipping to anywhere! I've got quite a few little toys from here and obviously you get what you pay for but they are quick, cheap and fun.

Enjoy
