Default Solution for those who get shocked

I am also a victim of the Z's madness too. I get shocked every single time when closing the door. But nothing Radio shack can't fix LOL. they have an anti-static spray; i bought a bottle for about 2 bucks, sprayed it on my seat, and guess what?? no shock since then. good luck guys...oh yeah, dont spray too much of this stuff, cuz it smells like detergent.

before i get out of the car, i place a finger on the metal frame above the window and then step out. i keep that finger there until i am free of the car. no shock and works every time!

Something else has got to be creating the ESD. I have leather and rubber floor mats, and still get zapped.

HERE'S WHAT TO DO: When you stop your car, open your door, step one foot on the ground, and THEN turn off your engine....u need to ground yourself and it won't shock you anymore....
