There are a lot of types of mounted optics for car. They serve different purposes and thus have different constructions. So let me give you a short guidance on auto optics.

Through the fog

The most widely spread kind of mounted optics is fog lights which are often mounted in the basic configuration of automobiles. The purpose is obvious from the name – to cut through fog with a specifically directed bunch of light of a specific spectrum.

The peculiarity of the construction is the combination of “dispersive” structure of the glass and the lamp of a certain spectrum. The lights are mounted either above or under the bumper (sometimes installed into a bumper).

Fogs can be halogen and xenon. The shape can be different as well: rectangular or round. Besides the front lights, there exist the rear fog lights of red color.

Searchlights

High beam mounted lights are quite popular and widely spread. Their purpose is obvious from the name: the increase of the intensity of light from basic high beam lights plus a tuning decoration of a car. The variety is great: halogen and xenon, rectangular, square, round etc
These lights are installed on the bumper or are built inside it. Moreover, on the top of automobiles.

Stop, car

Another type of additional lightning equipment is stop-signals. It purpose is to signal the drivers of lorries and buses who don’t see the basic lights due to high seats. At the same time additional illumination won’t be useless for all the other drivers.
The most frequently used type of dot-stops is a read light mounted inside the saloon in front of the rear windshield. Sometimes, double stops are equipped with turn signals. The latest fashion is a diode tube placed on the back door of an universal of hatchback.

As a fur tree

Colored illumination is quite popular as well. The base of such a thing is colored diodes which are mounted just about everywhere possible.

Blue flash

Optical disc is another piece of the light-tuning. These are small square or round lights with gas-discharged bulbs. The discs blink with bright blue color of a photo-flash.
The frequency of blonking can be changed.

In search

“Jeepers” – adventure hunters who visit remote corners of the planet – have a very useful device. It is a powerful searchlight turning 360 degrees. The light is mounted on the top of the car and is remorely controlled from the saloon.

Such lights can be tuned on outside cities and town and only if there are no cars nearby.

The Secret Of Mechanical Antitheft Devices

Everyone knows what are mechanical anti-theft gadgets for. This is the vital insurance of the electrical anti-theft system, invulnerable to various scanners, decoders and other devices used by thieves. But one must think hard what a mechanical anti-theft device should be.

There are a number of types of blockers: in one case it is a real wall for the thieves, and in other case – just a means of the owner’s self-complacency that us able to resist only a novice. Another issue is the esthetics: it matters if the device is hidden behind the paneling or protrudes like an barn lock.

The construction types of the blockers are different as well. They can be:

• Fully demountable
• Body-inbuilt (when only the locking pin is removed)

The former feature the blockers of the type “streering-wheel-pedal”, pedal lock, steering-wheel lock, wheel lock etc. Such devices are widely spread due to their low cost and the simplicity of mounting.  At the same time the level of security is low. These devices are powerless against an experienced thief.

The reason for it is the accessibility of the lock part which makes the blocker vulnerable to any kind of power attack. With the body-inbuilt blockers the case turns out to be more complicated. The majority of these devices are no better than the fully demountable as concerns the power attack. From a user’s point of view, they are even worse, because if a fully demountable device is broken it can be dismounted, but inbuilt blockers are impossible to dismount manually.

It makes the saloon of the car look ugly with a piece of iron protruding out of somewhere. Moreover, the body features additional openings required for the installation of the device, and these opening might the sources of corrosion. To sum up, such safety turns out to be more harmful than useful.

The interiorr styling or car individualization roots into auto sport. At the beginning only sportsmen equipped their car with additional gadgets and install stiff sport seats instead of soft ones.

The example got incredibly infectious: the auto market is full of useful and useless accessories. Do you happen to hate the plastic and the depressing grey canvas of your saloon? If yes, read further!

Sport Seats

Probably the major element of the interior. The major difference from the basic one is the scoop-like shape. The more scoop-like the seat is the more comfortable the driver is.
The materials are various from leather to canvas. The coloring is as a rule combined: for instance, red of blue with black.

Seat Covers

Seat covers is a brilliant way to cover the worn out or burned seats. When you are not ready to pay for a sport seat it is the optimal variant. The covers not only give the visual imitation of sport seats but sometimes also feature additional side support pillows. The covers can be made of high-quality materials

Steering Wheel

Another important interior detail is the steering wheel. You can choose according to your taste, the price, color, material and size. The latter, by the way, matters! The smaller the diameter is, the less effort the driver spends for a maneuver.

Besides the established brands like - Momo, Sparco, Isotta, there are a number of unknown Chinese manufacturers like “Type-R” или “Racing.”

Pedal and gear-box lever covers

The functional purpose of the covers is the increase of the pedal area and slippage resistance. In order to carry out its purpose the covers have grooved surface (or rubber insertions). The gear-box lever covers can be of various shapes. Its role is mostly aesthetic

Inclinometer and acceleration gauge

These are the devices for advanced drivers. They are additional gadgets which are installed either via the lighter or of it is already occupied via other means. Inclinometer is a device that shows the transverse and longitudinal inclination of the car’s body.

Acceleration gauge measures the acceleration value – the rapidity of the speed change of the car

Aluminum Parts: Luxury or Commonness?

[tag]auto part, performance car part, car body part, auto car part, car accessory, car part, custom car parts, cars, autos, vehicles, news[/tag]

Aluminum appeared in the automotive industry in the 50s of the 19th century. At that time a peculiar concepts were built in America, the concepts that transported cosmic style to the industry. The aluminum as its own part in the process - it created a special technocratic style. It was exactly the time when the aluminum began to be a material that creates a specific “man-cause” sharm.

Nowadays the aluminum decor is quite popular – almost all the manufacturers to this or that extent use it for the interiors. However, in the majority of cases the material is replaces by its more cheap substitutes - true aluminum is used in expensive cars. Although the fact doesn’t matter in term of the style, unless the imitation is of low quality. Aluminum parts look stylish and go with leather, wood, carbon and plastic. And varying the volume and combinations one can create different concepts of saloons.

An aluminum element can be a “spice” making the interior look original. In combination with leather and wood it can create quite a luxurious entourage, but with a sharp, venturesome feature. In combination with carbon, chrome and black leather, it makes the interior “tough techno.”

Everything is possible, at least theoretically, but as a rule aluminum is user for separate elements. More often they are – gear-box lever, pedal covers, decor rings for the loud-speakers and devices, various inserts in the console, inner handles of the locks, door inserts etc.

Tuning companies as a rule imply the sets “gear-box lever + pedal covers”. For a number of models you can find the sets of door and threshold covers plus the decorative loud-speaker rings. For exclusive parts the companies have to collaborate with plants, because the special equipment is required for the processing of the metal. The tuning-studio creates the sketches of the part and then order the plant to have the part made.

In general, if one doesn’t strive for extreme style and fashion the prices for aluminum parts are adequate to its image output. The cost of the set “gear-box lever handle + pedal covers” is around $500. The decor rings cost around $ 200 per item, whereas the threshold covers cost around $400. The unique parts will accordingly cost more. By the way, there are a number of “budget” solutions – for instance the individual autograph – it is made in any workshop and looks great!
