Clinometer found today

...In a very abused 1984 4runner SR5...
I found this clinometer...
The owner agreed to sell it to me in around 23 dollars, as a matter of fact he's trying to sale the 4runner...
What are the ods to find something like this in Acapulco???? ,,,
Well today it happens to me...
In the next days I'm going to paint it to match and install it...

its a poor recreation of superbleeder. so when someone cuts him off, he pulls out a knife and repeatably stabs it.

I believe it's just a 12v pos and ground wire to the lightbulb switch that lights it up.

is this thing just used to tell you at what angle you are...or does it actually show you when you're about to tip the frick over?

if it is actually really accurate as to when my fat arse 4runner is about to tip over, i'd prolly by the one on craigslist forsale
