    I could be wrong but I thought those would only work in salt water where an anode was forced to do all the corroding instead of the metal of the boat. I was under the impresion that the salt water acted as part of the circuit. I may be way off though.

    I tried to do some research for ya but didn't find much except a bunch of different places selling it. Based on the cost, I'm taking my car to Ziebart for their rust protection instead. As far as I know the cost will be about the same and I've heard that the Ziebart stuff will last well past the life of the car. 10 years at least.

    10 years is well past the life of the car?! mines almost 20 years old....and I hope to get 10 more out of it! as long as I keep it from rusting, and don't get in an accident, it won't even be that hard.....

    I'm going from an 01 to an 04 and I'll probably get a new car in 4-5 years regardless of the milage. Guess it just depends upon your expectations.
