Grounding Strips?
Not sure what they are called.. think grounding strips.. the strip that hangs at the rear of the car...
do they work?
i've noticed a lot of electrostatic build-up while sitting in my car with my wool jacket
now its fun when i get out to close the door as I can pretend i'm like god... nice little blue lightning bolts...
yes, I have done this on multiple occasions just to see it [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]
just wondering if anyone else is doing the same thing...

EVERY time i get out of my car i get a shock when i touch the door to close it....
its cause you're sliding across the fabric seats to get out and you get a charge
the strip might work.. or it could be an excuse to get yourself some nice new seats

haha i get it everytime... only noticed it in the winter...
i do it for fun too... i even shock other ppl sometimes...
just open the door and get out without touching anything
and then close the door by pushing the window... then shake someones hand [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]
either way i'm going to get shocked...

the grounding strips do work........ for the first few weeks....... but once then burn away and don't touch the ground, the static just comes striahgt back............. and plus, it looks really ghetto if it's hanging in midair and not touching the ground...... heehee....... my 2 cents
