is this question a plant?

More than once I've wondered if questions here were planted by publishers . . .

as said b4, there are a lot of different engine steadies out there. Looking at 7's page there's nearly a dozen.

Maybe if you could be a little more specific, or even have a picture, someone will recognize what's in their car.
