    Self-Rescue tools from Swiss+Tech and Zeeray

    Inexpensive emergency tools that fit in your glove compartment

    Published: November 07, 2014 10:37 AM

    In trying times, you just can't get enough self-rescue. And the auto aftermarket is here to help. We saw two new devices at the SEMA show in Las Vegas this week, both aimed at helping motorists help themselves when the going gets tough.

    Should an on-road emergency come up, the Swiss+Tech Body Guard Elite 9-in-1 and Zeeray 5-in-1 Tire gauge both include a seat belt cutter, window breaking tool, digital tire gauge, and flashlight. The Body Guard Elite adds a tire wear depth gauge, key ring, and emergency flasher, and it will read the tire pressure aloud – which can be handy if darkness is added to your list of troubles.

    Both compact devices were introduced this week, and will be available online later this year. The Body Guard Elite will be priced at about $35-$40, while the Zeeray is expected to be just under $20.
