Is it really okay to trust ebay brand tools? If they are of good quality then I'll pick up a set. As for pass through wrenchs I only thought they were good because they made it eaiser to get bolts out and stuff, If they aren't any good then I'll pass on them.

@Rell Good thinking on the hand crimper, I didn't think about the hand aches after word. I'll look into a set of the ratching crimper.

@Torres How big would you say the double drive is? Would it be a good tool to add to a set for car audio tools? Or is more like a general purpose tool in which a normal screwdriver would be sufficent.

That is a good price for some nice snips to cut through larger guage wire. I think I paid more than double that for my large guage snips.

Firm believer in letting my cars do my talking!

You can't rush quality, it doesn't happen overnight. Quality takes time and dedication, but the end results more than pay for it.

It is amazing how nicely some good snips really make easy work of that. I remember being younger and dumber and trying all sorts of different ways to cut large guage wire....finally sucked it up and bought nice snips, and it was an eye opening moment! Lol

Double drive is big... A normal ratcheting screwdriver will be easier to get into tight places..

I personally own a ridgid 12v drill and a milwaukee m12 impact driver, I've had the ridgid for about 3 years and I'm on my 4 set of batteries and ridgid won't replace them any more ever though I have a lifetime service agreement.

I love my milwaukee impact driver, I will be replacing the ridgid with a milwaukee m12 drill.
