^ yes I do.
Well.. IMO I don't see how it can work. Yeah I know they say it operates but I must be missing something cuz what they claim does not appear to jive with reality.
What I love is the price to have it installed! IIRC it's $69 for cars and $99 for SUV/Trucks. IT'S THREE BLOODY WIRES!! And why would a truck/SUV be more?

You see, when metal rusts it is being oxidized. oxidized means it is loseing electrons. (reduction is the gaining of electrons) So iron becomes iron oxide. What the canadian tire thing does is stops the iron from losing its electrons by supplying electrons to it from your battery.

Saturn is known for plastic body panels... I wouldn't expect they also have a device such this, as well...
