    Safety Pressure Indicators
    Tire Minders Safety Pressure Indicator

    Are your tires at the proper pressure? Just a glance will let you know, but never "guess" whether the pressure is okay. Now you can tell at a glance by replacing the original valve caps with these Tire Minder caps. As long as the tire maintains the correct pressure for your type of vehicle (car = 28-32 pounds per square inch--psi--or minivan = 34-38 psi), the cap's color indicator shows green. When the tire loses 4 psi, it starts showing yellow and red is fully visible at 8 psi loss. Four come to a set. Check your owner's manual for correct psi, and be sure to specify for a car or minivan.

    Flashing Brake Light
    Safe Light Deceleration-Sensitive Flashing Brake Light

    The C2i 1157 DSFBL is a direct replacement for standard OEM 1157 tail brake lights. No additional wiring or installation is required aside from a standard replacement of the tail brake-light bulb. When the DSFBL determines that you are making an abrupt stop, it automatically flashes the brake lights at an attention-getting rate. The flashing will grab the attention of following drivers and let them know that something about this stop is different.
