I also recommend a Light-In-Sight! I have MINI Cooper Coupe which has excellent visibility directly to my left and straight forward, and that’s it. When I first ordered my LIS it took months to arrive (this was over 10 years ago now but it’s still holding up great, no cracks or anything) and in the interim I happened…

A Light In Sight, https://lightinsight.com/, best $13 I have ever spent (when I bought it, looks like it’s $19.95 now). It’s a Fresnel lens that sits at the top of your windshield, centered on the driver. It allows you to see traffic lights when nearly directly under them. At 6'-2", driving a MINI, this keeps me from…

Ehh, in certain areas, but the rise of digital antennas has given way to a very successful digital subchannel system, which is basically old-school cable without paying the extra bill. Some, like MeTV or Antenna TV, are focused on classic shows. Others, like Bounce, CourtTV Mystery, and Comet, have a mix of old and…

I was explaining my digital antenna to some (fellow millennial) friends and they acted as if I had discovered some brilliant lifehack. “So you can just watch NBC...for free? No pirating or anything?”

There are worse things people keep in their cars. Cellphones in the cupholders, pens on the dashboard shelf, hula girls and The Dog figurines glued just aft of the windshield vents. I’ve seen the aftermath of a high speed rollover with basic stuff unsecured in the car. The wounds took months to heal and left scars on…

They are very late to the party.

You think you have privacy on a public road? Without that iniquity identifier, the roads would be more chaotic. 

I mean I hate license plates and love the fourth amendment as much as anyone but I’m not sure your car has a right to privacy on public roads...I guess you’re saying that you have the right to not be identified as the owner of the car via the license plate but that’s not any more of a privacy violation than being…

What right to privacy are you talking about?  The only one in America is about medical privacy, and the undoing of that one is about to start.

Not requiring a front license plate is the correct answer.

Oh I threw soooo much stupid stuff at my Neon. Look at this interior. LOOK AT IT:

Haha yeah - those non-halogen ones used an 1156 stop lamp bulb. Threw practically zero light. My car was blue and I replaced the lenses with blue plexi which I thought was pretty cool - until I got pulled over and politely told by an officer that red and blue front lights were not allowed.

Yeah, I agree with smalley. You skipped right over dumb and went straight to genius.

That might be dumb enough that is circles around to being genius.

I was not mechanically inclined, mind you, but I drove a Delta 88 that had a tape deck.  The tape deck ate tapes, so I velcroed a cassette walkman to the underside of the dash, with a stereo miniplug to cassette adapter- so I would play my tapes in the walkman through the adapter instead of just getting a cheapy…

My close friend, who was in his early 20's at the time, put a $2000 stereo system with a subwoofer in a company car. Yes, he returned the car with the system still installed.

What do you mean?! Those are advertised to add an extra 15 hp!!!!1!
