Default Chindogu

I'd like to suggest a new thread about Chindogu for cars... Chindōgu is Japanese for the practice of turning everyday items into clever new gadgets, but gadgets that cause more problems or inconveniences than they solve. Chindōgu are sometimes described as "unuseless" –- neither completely useless nor completely useful.
We've all come across something of this nature or even been guilty of it, here's one pic to get it started...cheers.tom

Number plate seems to be obscured. Might be useful with speed camera vans.
