Always wondered what these are...?

[Overdrive]

Sweet, thanks folks! I do feel a little silly seeing that these have been talked about in the past on more than one occasion on the forum, but I tend to think my search for something like "under car hanging thing" won't be terribly successful. Maybe I'll reconsider from now on.

Good to know these parts aren't priced like unicorns, either. I'll have to take a closer look at these now that I know what they are and what they do, and order a few spares from Wayne just in case...I don't always get to dodge road debris/-kill.
