My magnet is transferrable between my 2 Au's, the XR was smashed in a hit and run, the culprit was seen but no rego spotted, I wasn't around, so $4500 worth of white van damage later I have to record my first claim with Shannons. : So whilst the XR is off the road I'm driving the mont and another white van is magnetically attaracted to me and rubs panels with my rear bar and rear quarter panels.
Therefore I have the worst AU magnet as not only does it cause more than door dings but it tranfers automatically to the car I'm driving. :

Anyone want to lend me their AU?

True. What is the opposite of a magnet so once I have attracted them they can be repelled into the engine bay and install themselves?


Where is the MSD coils I sent you? My magnets have not bought them back.

Yeah, but that will only decrease the vehicles value

No, that would be like removing the Tickford heritage from your car. Can't be done, nope, nyet, nein, nol.

Unfortunately a Dr Karl Kruzlnicki answer to your question would be to look into the human DNA strands that make us gregarious in nature.
