Pylon Wiper Blades - 18 inch Review

If you're looking at these blades, you probably are doing so for the same reason I did: they're dirt cheap. However, let me save you some money, frustration, and possibly keep you a bit safer -- these are rubbish. Plain and simple, these blades are bad. If I was ambitious, I'd do a video review and show how horrendous these really are in action, but, to be honest, I'm just not that ambitious feeling right now.
Their first test came after a snow storm, following a semi, which was kicking up large amounts of spray thanks to the snow and ice being melted by salt on the road. Those of you who live in northern climates know what a nasty, hard to see through film salt spray from roads leaves on your windshield. Well, these wipers hardly cleared a thing. I had to pull over and clean it by hand with snow from the ditch more than once.
Fast forward a couple weeks. A rare December RAIN storm comes (usually any precipitation in December is snow up here). Perhaps these blades are just not build for tough winters, but at least they should handle rain, right? WRONG. Although better than the salt spray, to say these did a decent job would be a gross exaggeration.
Finally on my way to work one morning there was a slight film of the aforementioned salt spray. I hit my wipers and washer fluid to clean it up, and... nothing. It's as if somehow the blades levitate OVER my now sprayed windshield? The top of the arc on the passenger side did clear about an inch of fluid, but that is utterly worthless to me, the driver.
So I swung into Wal-Mart and got a new set of blades of a different brand, which work exponentially better. The moral of the story, spend a few dollars more, save yourself money and time in the long run.

I replaced the non functional horns on my 88 Porsche 944 and they work very well. The connectors were not identical to the OEM but the spade lugs fit well and securely. The OEM rubber boot has nowhere to connect on the horn body to weatherproof the connection.

Great Replacement horn for my 2000 Ford Ranger. Original location is behind the fender well on the drivers side. I mounted the new one in front of the radiator by the drivers side headlight. Good sounding horn. Will work for what I need it to do, which is stop the old lady from backing into me in a parking lot!

FIAMM 72102 12 V High Note One & Two Term. / Universal Bracket Review

These things are awesome. I bought two along with some relays and relay sockets so I could get them enough power directly from the battery to do serious audible damage. Make sure to buy this one with its mate, the 72112 low tone. After wiring in the relays, these went in my 2000 Civic perfectly. They replaced the crappy horn in there, and I used the wiring to tie into the relay signal hot wire. Then, I grounded the relay to the body by tying it into the ground wire from one of the horns. The horns come with these little wire slide connectors that you can clamp onto your wires. I used wire nuts to tie all the wires together - I suggest you do the same. I was able to mount them facing away from eachother with grounding connectors in between the mounts using a single bolt that held the old Honda horn. This was ideal, and very clean - no drilling required!
I suggest finding yourself a 12V DC 4-pin or 5-pin 40 Amp SPST ISO Micro Relay for this project. Also, it really helps to have a 5-Pin Wire Harness Relay Socket. This will give you all the wires you need directly from the relay. These are really cheap items, and you shouldn't have trouble finding them. The 4-pin relays work fine with the 5-pin sockets. Then, educate yourself on how relays work, and wire that bad boy up! I got my relay and relay socket on ebay.
Overall, I'm very pleased with this product. Buy it now if you want to be heard on the highway.

FIAMM 72112 Freeway Blaster Horn Review

While I really like the FIAMM Freeway Blaster, the description is pretty misleading. The horn gets 5 stars, the ad one, averages to three. One of the descriptions writes "high or low tone (one or two terminals)" That's totally wrong. The 72112 is only the low tone. If you want the high tone you need the 72102. When they write one or two terminals, that has nothing to do with the high or low tone. And since you can't return this item, I'm stuck. I bought four, two for each of my bikes. Now I have to re-order two 72102's - there goes the free shipping. One other point says "Universal or right angle bracket". Really it's one bracket - you can bend it if you like.
