Life throwing a wrench at you while buying a present for your mechanic? This handy list can help buff out those worries with the perfect gift! No need to even buy a new air filter!

Magnetic Wristband
One of the worst things to happen to a car mechanic is fallen nut or washer through the cracks of a car, which can greatly delay an otherwise fast fix. This may be one of the best mechanic gifts you can get for someone who has to move around all the tight spaces of their ride (or others). Easily enough surface area to hold onto extra fasteners, drill bits, bolts, a bottle opener, etc. If it’s magnetic, it will stick!

Rolling Toolbox
Easily, one of the best gifts for mechanics are more tools! With more wrenches, screwdrivers, ratchets, and hex tools than you can shake a hammer at, any car aficionado would love to have this high-quality set added to their garage. To sweeten the deal, this 258-piece mechanics tool set is entirely mobile in its portable rolling case. Each item has its perfect place, so nobody will ever have to worry about where they left their level or tape

Dual Lens Borescope
While many mechanics worth their salt can diagnose an automobile issue with some trial-and-error, a little extra help never hurt. This dual lens borescope produces high-quality photos with dynamic lighting to assist in diagnosing any problem under the hood or otherwise. The endoscope’s body is reinforced with metal, to be drop resistant, rainproof and designed for heavy duty work. With the ability to save photos through a micro-SD and stay charged for up to 6 hours of use, any mechanic would be grateful for such a handy piece of equipment.

Multitool Pen
It turns out that every inspection doesn’t need top of the line equipment to fix something. This 9-in-1 pen includes a twist Ballpoint pen, ruler, screwdriver (both Flat & Phillips), bottle opener, stylus, level, and LED flashlight; everything at your fingertips. Instead of having to crawl out from under the car this handy pocket tool can be used to solve an issue without breaking a sweat. It can be especially useful when someone else in the shop is hogging the screwdrivers, they’ll have their own personal one at the ready at all times.

Creeper Seat
Pliers or a screwdriver may be some of a craftsman’s most important tools, but this creeper seat just might be a mechanics tool that can’t be lived without. Crawling under a truck or kneeling over the hood can cause undue and unnecessary stress on your mechanics back and this seat will have your auto-guy zipping around faster than the wheels he’s working on.

Magnetic Pickup Tool Set
Another great gift for the auto guy is this magnetic telescopic tool set. One of the most frustrating things for a mechanic is dropping something through the inner crevices of a vehicle and then having to rig something together in order to fish it out. There’s no need to worry about any of that when you have a kit that includes a mirror, magnifying glass, flashlight, and multiple magnetic grips. No screw will be lost again!

Tool Apron
Some superheroes have tool-belts and some mechanics have tool-aprons. Why have tools on the floor or hanging out of a pocket when everything can be in one place? With generous pocket space your mechanic will never have to look for a missing level again.

Flashlight Gloves
These handy gloves for your handyman give a whole new meaning to “hand tools.” Sometimes an auto mechanic needs both hands at the ready when working their job and holding a flashlight will just get in the way. These gloves provide so much more in maneuverability when rolling under the engine and can be the perfect work light for late night.

Universal Socket
If your handyman is running low on space but always appreciates a new tool for his trade, look no further than universal socket. Able to take on various shapes and sizes for any job, it even comes with a drill adapter to tackle particularly difficult areas. Able to adjust to grip most metric, wing nuts, broken nuts, stripped nuts, eye bolts, square nuts, hexes and more, this little gadget is surprisingly versatile. A no-brainer buy!
