    Saw this on CL. I sent an email to the seller telling him that I want to buy it. Haven't heard back yet. Anybody know what it is. Seems similar to a Hickey sidewinder.

    If wrapping your thing doesn’t protect it, I don’t know what kind of advice to give on avoiding hickeys. Get it and enjoy it.

    I saw mention of that brand while searching the net, but haven't found a picture of one.
    I'm trying...

    I think Advance Adapters took over production of the Hickey Sidewinder. Then they also produced a Mini Sidewinder. I think that may be what you are looking at.

    I think you are right. Working out the details with the seller now. A bit of a drive from my area.

    Was ready to get it this morning but someone got there first. Oh well. There are probably plenty more 30 dollar sidewinders out there.
