Stuff We Find
Good or Bad you decide

Started this topic for stuff we find as people know I am a bit of a bargain hunter and on my travels of the vast internet I come across loads of good finds like my car cup holder mats and my car key cover and my sill protectors.....

.....but amongst the good find I find a lot of stuff like ....wow people buy this Rubbish!

So in this topic I would like others to post too to find out if its a good product or a bad one or just post a product you think wow people actually buy this!?

Rules are must be Ford or Fiesta related
(pictures would be nice too)

Yeah that rear light is shocking lol. I'm tempted by that anti-slip phone holder though.

I ordered this the other day: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Kent-Q2429-Microfibre-Noodle-Wash/dp/B002PX296S/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1424339522&sr=8-1&keywords=car+wash+mitt

Very cheap and hopefully will be able to wash my car with it tonight if it comes in the post, then I'll find out if it's a yay or nay :)

Id only use them wash mitts for wheels Phil, ive got one for wheels, but i personally wouldn't use it for paint. Your better off getting a proper lambs wool wash mitt.

A got a microfiber mitt from asda and works a treat and has high reviews on detailing world forums plus about same price as Phil's

Personally wouldn't use them on paint, but it's your car :) lambs wool ones are the best you can use.

You're probably right, but it'll be better than the brush I've been using. I actually have a lambs wool mitt somewhere so will have to dig that out and start using it again.

I need to replace my wash mitt, after the last wash there's a huge chunk missing out the middle! The Fiesta badge shreds them coz it's sharp lol!

I've got a little tdk ladybird usb stick, not fiesta exclusively but I like it

The ladybird above reminded me of one of my purchases. I have a very discreet USB flash drive in my car. It is barely noticeable, and can be directly connected to phones and tablets too (assuming you're not in the iOS world!).

The link on Amazon for it is here.

That's pretty cool, but I wonder what happens if you connect both ends to something :blink:

That's nice, but I think we need something a bit more manly to balance it out, how about this:

I didn't think a real chainsaw would be so cheap lol.

That's pretty cool, but I wonder what happens if you connect both ends to something :blink:

I can't say I've tried it! Nor have I actually connected it to my phone or tablet, but it was only a little bit more expensive than other reputable tiny USB flash drives and also has USB 3 compatibility, so it was well future-proofed, I thought!

Just to follow up from earlier, the current state of my wash mitt, lol.

Anyone thinking of doing an ICE upgrade. This speaker cable cannot be beat on quality for the money (virtually QED silver anniversary quality :D)

Not Fiesta related, but I have used it in the Fiesta: Sugru

http://sugru.com

Bloomin' brilliant stuff. Imagine plasticine that you can mould to any shape you like, but sets rock solid.

I used it when I ran out of heat/shrink wrap when I was repairing some cabling. Bought some Sugru, moulded it round the cable, cable still going strong.

Brilliant fun coz you can make little plasticine animals with it first!!

:D
