Not sure if repost... but old news. I've seen them on a few cars in shitty car shows... to be honest, not really worth the money unless you have some show stopper engine bay.

I didn't realize that they have been out, never seen them myself. But you would have to have perfect engine bay to rock a set of these on your car.

and if your coolant is fresh and clean...

Another fucking s70: with Lots of zip-ties, a power antenna, and a bitchin shift knob... the only mods that matter.

Am i the only one who thinks these are stupid? Seen them on TC's before, but, why the hell do i want glass in my engine bay...Wonder what happens when the radiator fan /road shoots a rock up at it. I'm sure they use very high quality glass, probably stronger and better than any stock rubber hose, but i don't see the functionality or even the appeal, to seeing my coolant flow with LEDs in place...If i want that, i'll shove a lava lamp in my engine bay

Watch their videos on strength... impressively strong though!
The valve cover is pretty awesome though!

No. You can't.
Your right i can't see the valves opening and closing. But seriously its not that impressive when you can't see it when the engine is reving high. That would be cool to see.
