Car Tips #67: Car Hacks That Are Awesome By Frank-Ling / Feb 12, 2015 share Facebook Twitter Google + LinkedIn Pinterest Email Share... Car hacks are a way to make things easier, and some of them can even be ingenious too.Here's one: If your car is equipped with a seat warmer, you can use this on your next pizza run. All you have to do is to put the pizza box next to you on the passenger side, turn on the seat heater and it will keep your pizza nice and toasty until you arrive at home. Cool, eh?.Staple Remover and Key RingsUnless you have the strength of The Hulk, or have fingers that are as skinny as toothpicks, key rings will mangle and break your nails when you try to pry the rings wide enough to insert your keys.One way around this annoying problem is to use a staple remover. Position the “jaws” between the key ring parts and push the jaws together. This will easily separate the key rings and you can add as many keys as you want to without hurting your fingers.Find Your Lost Car at the Shopping MallOK, some of you can pretend that you’ve never lost your car in the parking lot at a shopping mall. But for those of us who do admit it, there’s really a simple way of locating your car.All modern cars come with a lock/unlock remote that has a “panic” button on it. All you have to do is to hold the remote high over your head and push the panic button as you sweep the area. If your car is within a few hundred feet of you, it will start to beep. Follow the sound of your car and you’re home free.Charge Your USB Devices In Your CarSmartphone and tablet accessories can get pretty expensive. But you can save yourself a good chunk of change if you buy a cigarette lighter/power port adapter for a few dollars online.This device essentially plugs into your power port and provides one or more USB outlet ports for charging your devices. All you need to do is supply the provided USB cables that came with your electronics.Point Your Car EastIf you ever have to park your car outside overnight, you can save yourself some trouble by pointing it to the east the night before. As the sun rises it will act as an automatic defroster for your windshield and will melt any ice or light snow that has accumulated over night.Source: motoringabout.com
