Hey there! We created this site to help friends find the best OBD2 scanners for their needs, but we’ve found the site has been expanding very rapidly. People keep asking, “Hey Mike, I’ve been looking for an oil drain pan, do you have any suggestions?” Or “Mike my man, I just picked up my new 2017 Toyota Tacoma and want to deck it out with some sick headlights.”
While we cannot cover every car and truck upgrade on our site, we thought it would be good to add a separate category for these special cases. For this reason we decided to create this category for other “cool car stuff.” Here you’ll find awesome reviews on the best HID headlights kits, oil pan reviews, and much more.
Take a browse around and enjoy your stay, and don’t miss the best obd2 wifi scanner reviews and best OBD2 Bluetooth scanner guide
