It's more of a strap than a pole. I think you can find them in those JCwhittney catalogs.

Well the guy said it was from canada tire or some ****. Why do you highly doubt it? Its not some mad tight jdm **** or anything. Its just like a damn air freshener or any other sort of accessory like that. It just prevents static.

It was probably Canadian tire he's talking about, it's like an all purpose type of store up here.. I've never seen those strips there but it's not like I was looking for them..

you can actually make your own... it's a piece of metal that is attached to your frame, insulated by rubber that touches the ground.... use a 8 gauge wire that has both ends stripped and one end that is contacting your metal frame and the other touching the ground.

edit: also the store is called canadian tire.. it's a hardware/automotive store that is a pretty big chain all across canada.
