Equipment and Tool Institute market research In an effort to assist members in bringing new and improved equipment and tools to the marketplace, the Equipment and Tool Institute (ETI) has launched a series of Market Research Projects. The current survey covers numerous Collision Repair topics, so they are surveying collision repair facilities in an effort to find out more about their familiarity with and use of different types of collision repair equipment for different vehicles. ETI will use this research to help all segments of the automotive industry provide aftermarket shops with effective tool and equipment solutions and better products. The findings of ETI's Collision Repair Market Research will be made available to all ETI Member Company attendees at ToolTech 2014 in Sonoma, California, April 28- May 1. Anyone working at a collision repair shop is encouraged to participate in the survey at the following Website: http://emartecgroup.com/eticrgpr Previous market research studies have included J2534 Reprogramming, J2534 Reprogramming Update, TPMS, Telematics, Collision Repair, A/C Service, Hybrid and Battery Service, and Information Access, and the final reports are available under the "News" tab at www.etools.org.
