I'm not grasping


So I left the least interesting item last. I have no more yellow and black items except for a few things in the office. But I will be taking more photos of things and posting them here. This petrol pedal came as a three piece set. Unfortunately Sunbeam is an automatic car and the brake pedal came off. That's why I only have the petrol pedal attached. Having the brake pedal coming off is not good so I decided not to reattach it to the car. The set cost RM15 and I've been using it ever since I got the car.

This is why I'm not hot

It gets hot in Malaysia. Especially if you leave the air-conditioned comfort of your car. Which is why I carry this portable battery-operated fan available at the local Pasar Malam (night market) for RM8. It has a cute little creature playing badminton on it and accept 2 AA batteries. The fan blades are made of soft plastic, so there is little risk of serious injury if you happen to touch it while its moving. However I wouldn't jam it into my eye if I were you. Its avery handy. Unfortunately I always forget to take it out of the car, thus negating any usefulness of the device.

It sticks to your dashboard



One of the first yellow things I put in my car is this sticky mat, designed to keep stuff stuck on your dashboard as Sunbeam takes corners at high speeds. I found a roll of it at the local ACE Hardware for about RM20.

Yellow and black for a rainy day


Every car needs an umbrella. Some like to match their umbrella to their car. I do. I had a nicer one from the Dummies Guide book series but the handle broke. I replaced it with this little umbrella which fits one comfortably and two in a pinch. It cost only RM5 from Jukebox, Malaysia.

Rollbag


This is an original Sëmk Fruit Rollbag designed to fit a roll of toilet paper which is dispensed through the opening at the top. A zipper at the bottom allows insertion of the toilet paper roll which must have its center cardboard roll removed as the toilet paper is released from the inside out. I got this at Metrojaya Mid Valley on sale along with the Bolster at 50% off. I paid about RM15 for it.

I need a vanilla hug



Most people have seen the great yellow and black icon - the have a nice day smiley face. This one has arms, and feet and an outstretched tongue and reeks of vanilla. I would've preferred lemon but yellow and black collectors can't be too picky. This too was a gift and you can get 3 for RM10 from any Watson's pharmacy.

Luxurious car accessories


One evening, while waiting for a movie at the cinema, I happened across several Sëmk items on sale at 50% off. I think I got this at RM25. It's a soft fleece like material around with vinyl lemon print on the sides.

I like the smell of lemon


A lot of the yellow and black things I collect actually find their place in Sunbeam - my yellow and black car. Particularly lemon scented air freshners. This one is by Tokyo 828. You can get it for sale 3 pieces for RM10.
