Lidl and Aldi Car accessories

[Gibbo2286]

Took my old friend to shop in Lidl in Monmouth last week, they had the middle aisle pretty full of the usual stuff but all the freezers were completely empty, just one sad looking plastic (veggie) ready meal in the whole set up.

This coming Sunday (15/05) Lidl have something for the photographers; a digitiser kit (to turn slides/negatives into digital images;

Might just have a look at that although it doesn't do 6 x 6 cm.
Might just work with Linux.

I know this is not at Aldi or Lidl, but (if they have them in stock) B&M have a useful air cooler that can turn a bad night (with no sleep) into a tolerable one. I have recently got one of these (having had an older design for a few years now), and I feel it works well.

I have since encountered a minor (and easily remedied) problem. One of the two 'posts' (that the valves rely upon to work) was slightly too short, so the tank on that side would not drain. All I did was to put an 'O' ring into each cap, and that has fixed the problem nicely (the 'O' ring maintains the seal, and 'raises' the height of the cap by a couple of millimetres, so when the tanks are in place the valves open fully, draining at the correct rate.

I agree, so I will be getting a set myself.

Exceedingly useful, I bought a very similar set before replaceing the headlining in my C5 estate and apart from that job alone I seem to find a use for one tool or another virtually every week!!

The thing for cordless cars might be useful

I bought a bag of trim clips at a CCC rally about a dozen years ago.
Still sitting here unopened.

I like the sound of that 20v impact wrench - if it really does give 400nm.

Tempted with the dash cam, I have a cheapo one that works ok but it plugs into the cigar lighter and is a bit of a nuisance.
I'd like to get one wired into the system but I'm not sure about the electrics on the EV Zoe.

This one advertised also plugs into the cigar lighter.
