1995 Montego Blue.This is a remarkably simple and brilliant idea.
Nice NA, btw. Montego Blue?
How many times have driven away with the gauge stuck to the fender, thats what would happen to me.
Life is full of risks.I would NEVER stick anything to my car...I won't even touch it, as no matter what you will scratch it. Put it in your pocket or carry a rag and lay it on the ground.
well I don't know about everybody else but I have never left my tire pressure gauges just laying around, if I am using it it put back when I am done.Better than leaving it behind, no?
" Surprisingly simple. I put some tape on the magnet to keep from scratching the paint. "Kinda like nails on a chalkboard thinking about that bare magnet dragging across your paint. Glue a thin piece of rubber to that magnet, and your invention will be perfect.
If you ever park in a lot, you can bet that other people touch your car every now and then - carrying groceries, swinging doors open, or kids seeing the shiny paint and wanting to touch it! Kinda sucks but I gave up trying to keep my paint in perfect condition on my daily driver. I just wash and spray wax often, and apply sealer at least once each year and hope for the best. But soner or later it will get scratched or catch a flying stone. This is not to say that sticking magnets to the paint is a good idea, but just a reminder that the effort to preserve a perfect finish on a driven car is usually futile.I would NEVER stick anything to my car...I won't even touch it, as no matter what you will scratch it.
