One more car lifehack: To avoid getting costly parking tickets, just take the windshield wipers off of your car. Not just the wiper blade, but the whole arm as well. This will stop police from being able to give you a ticket, so you can park pretty much anywhere for as long as you'd like.
Great ideas, Dave! Frequently the cause of misting windows is due to water (condensation) collecting in the heater/AC box inside the dashboard. This box has drain hose(s) that normally will allow the water to exit, but frequently gets plugged with dust and debris trapping the water inside the dash forever. Crawl under the car (or next time your car's in for an oil change) and look for a rubber tube hanging down near the gear change lever location. Run a wire coat hanger (do they make these any more?)--bent at the end so it doesn't puncture the tubing--and route out the stuffs in there. Watch out--dirty, nasty water will pour out when you get it un-stuck.
The cat litter hack is awesome! Using my cat litter sock for almost a year now and no more damp car windows. And I didn't change the sock for fresh litter. It still works!
Living in Seattle - I learned to run the air conditioner with the heat on for a few minutes before I turned off the car. Reduced the amount of fog on the interior and really helped keep the interior glass frost-less when temperatures dropped.
2:15 the roll of duct tape may work in Europe, but here in America our cups are much bigger, especially at the fast food drive-through. For that I would suggest the spare tire instead of a roll of tape.
That's why you yanks are so FAT cause you all over indulge and then blame society leading to suicide yada yada yada... it's sad that the government here have had to bring in regulations on food dietary control because ur crappy way of life was starting to infect ours. So use the duct tape as a guide to stay healthy... good luck 👍🏾
Bonus tip: that cat litter will do you wonders if your car gets stuck in snow! What happens in deep snow is that your tire's quick rotation ends up melting and polishing the water and snow into ice. This makes the car unable to come out. So what do you do? You dump the cat litter on where you want your car to ride up as it will absorb the water and provide traction. Pretty cool, huh? Stay safe, have fun, and as always, thanks for reading.
followumesh1 lol so I'm 12 it's 2017 and I have a Samsung galaxy j1 ace and I don't care if it's an old brand but it still looks new no scratches nth and my parents always tell me we will buy u a new phone like IPhone 7 but I said no bc y would I waste my parents money if my phone is still working very good if I'm In need of a new phone then I will tell so ya.....
Be careful with reels of Duct tape because the adhesive sometimes exudes from the sides and it sticks to things such as a car's upholstery and can be difficult to remove.
Instead of using the rubber band for a phone holder, I use self adhesive velcro which works really well. If you live in a hot environment, make sure to get a heavy duty velcro so that the glue doesn't melt when your car is parked in the sun.
The problem with the belt that collects the dirt and dust down between the roller and the housing over the years and thus slows him down when rolling up. It is better to disassemble the panel and directly clean the role and possibly give a few silicone oil splashes on the axes on both sides. The hack shown here is only of short benefit 😏
The cat crystals trick is neat. I need to keep my telescope optics dry in the tropics where I live so I will try that. No problem with the car windows here. I believe the crystals can be microwaved (just like silica gel bags) to get the moisture out and reuse them.
At 2:44 - That is a temporary Solution. ChrisFix did an awesome video on this where he showed how you can permanently defog and make the windows super clean. He also has a lot of awesome car videos on his channel, really worth it IMHO.
Why are people on about his phone being a bit old? If it does what you want, why the hell pay for a new one. Also, why do you expect he can afford that? New smartphones are ridiculously expensive.
I like this guy. He doesn't copy from other youtube channels and he doesn't upgrade his phone like a crazy person
especialy u phone 7
Hey if it ain't broke don't fix it.
i liked this comment way too much
u r here?
u r my favourite youtuber can u give me a shout out
The number of things this man is able to accomplish with a roll of tape is staggering 🤯
U mean annoying
This is the most unbelievably british video ever! Even has 'the thomas the tank engine' music
I can't unhear this lol

He is driving a Fiat Stilo😆😅👍🏽
I have a feeling keeping a roll of duct tape on my passenger seat is going to do wonders for my love life.
🤣🤣🤣
Well, yeah. You have something to keep her hands and feet bound.
He had an awsome Fiat Stilo.
:D
I didn’t even catch the serial killer angle, I thought you meant girls will think you’re handy.
the first "lifehack" youtuber ive seen who doesnt steal his ideas from 20 other lifehack youtubers
Caillou's Mutter I totally agree with you!
only bad thing is taht people steal their ideas from him

this was posted today
jaybe he saw itsomewhere else
I know. But I had seen this somewhere else.
Just wanted to point out that it really works!
I am definitely going to try this cat litter hack
ɷ Heey Friendss I Have Just Won Brandd New iPad From visittt : - t.co/6p1aPsvKM0
I only have a mobile phone so I used Dave's idea to elastic band a car I found to the phone via the air vent. Worked just as well. Thanks Dave!!
omg this is so funny...🤣🤣🤣🤣
Great seat belt tip - thank you.
I don't even own a car I just love dave
same

Me too! Dave rocks!
MyOzx I know Dave is best kind
Umm my socks have a massive hole at one end i put my feet through the hole will it still work?
Epic0Tom No
Majied Mian you are dumb
Epic0Tom xD
use the duct tape to fix the holes

I LOVE the cell phone holder. That would be GREAT good GPS, 🎶 music 🎵, taking calls, talking to Siri, Hey Google, etc.
Living in Seattle - I learned to run the air conditioner with the heat on for a few minutes before I turned off the car. Reduced the amount of fog on the interior and really helped keep the interior glass frost-less when temperatures dropped.
It might look really bad if the police search my car and find a suspicious bag of "crystals" underneath my seat🤔
lol ikr
you mean suspicious sock lolll
Just say the sock is full of your spunk
Pekkle520 just show the police this video
they will be so happy and excited at first, the test will disappoint them greatly.
The air vent one is genius but I guess unusable in the winter when you need the heat. The duct tape one is great too!

Brilliant as usual, Dave
Was there any need for the "huh?" After; "you can see the inside of mine was pretty disgusting"?
Dion Lewis yes there is always a need for a huh don't judge
Olivia but this is the internet.
*every
Loffy but the way Dave said it, it almost sounded forced in the video.
huh is the expresion of "right?" or "what do you think". It fits perfectly in this situation

Nice original hacks presented in your own cheerful way Dave! Keep them coming!
Brilliant. I especially like the phone holder and the moisture reduction item. Bravo and thanks so much!!!

Yes, placing a guard under the reel would be helpful.
Thank you both
Make sure your socks are clean otherwise you'll end up with a clear windscreen but a stinky interior.
what if I like a stinky interior, or exterior? Please don't tell me what I want or don't want, its really none of your business.

Legitimate tips! Thanks!
If you get pulled over and a cop finds the sock the cop gonna think you moving ounces of crystal meth 😂😂😂

"Pretty disgusting, huh?"
Seriously?! I was expecting the normal "pretty cool, huh?"

Same bro
I love your hacks! 🎉
He said - "You could see inside of mine, pretty disgusting Heh!!!!"
HAHAH
Lol.
What if I recklessly pour the ceystals in.
They will burn through the floor and cause an explosion.
Hmmm, I wonder if Samsung Note 7's contain cat litter crystals then...
Good one
this guy is a king. thanks.
The duct tape comes in handy when you are abducting people and the foam paint brush can also be utilised as a nostril cleaner.
"And they're really good at picking up all the dust"
(doesn't pick up all the dust)
I am skeptical when I see videos like this, but I have been dealing with slow seat belts and I applied your hack. It worked. Thank you.
0:58 Using some polish? Pozdrowienia z polski! :)

I'm on a budget..Will used cat litter work?
If you heat it up in the microwave, all the moisture will damp off and it'll be ready for use again
I’m so glad I watched this.. and not because it helped what so ever 😂😂
@Dave Hax thanks a bunch for the humidity buster, very simple yet efficient😊

All I'm thinking about is the continuous skn contact with the polish after spraying it onto the plastic slider.
Where are you from Australia or England??

Hah funny ye
hey dave sweet videos I love them
All my socks have a hole in the end though, where else am I supposed to put my foot in?
Id be suspicious of anyone driving around with a giant roll of duct tape on the passenger seat!
And with odor reducing chemicals under the same seat. Probably has gallons of bleach in the trunk.

White rice does well in a sock for a warmer as well.
Then your microwave window will mist up :)

After many years, in 2023, still it's helpful ❤
If you dont have duct tape you can use your shoe.your welcome

Don't put anything on your vents unless you're u want to break them, pretty common knowledge in the mechanic world

Brandon Flowers i swear i don t rait this commet i don t now how is this and i don t believe this anywere and
I do not recall that I saw this video to
He put nothing in the vents, rather the vent cover. There is no issue with that.
I use a Kenu Airframe for my S7 Edge and the vent is fine

Why are people on about his phone being a bit old? If it does what you want, why the hell pay for a new one.
Also, why do you expect he can afford that? New smartphones are ridiculously expensive.
Last one is neat. Gonna have to try this one myself.
Thank you sir, this has been very helpful.👍
the rubber band through the vent is a royal bitch to set up while driving.
Wow,good idea
Why am I watching this ? I dont even have a car
2:08 also use a POS phone like this for when your new iPhone/Samsung goes flying into the footwell on a corner.
IOS and Android apps are not cooking and you can play this game or watch this video to make basketball player Tony Parker
we love this video !
umm...What can i do if i don't have a car?
All of m socks have holes in them cause how do you get your foot in it
