After Firefox broke my add-ons yet again, I decided to give Chrome a second look. To my surprise all the add-ons are available.

What I am missing though is the drop-down search bar. First, I've disabled the search from the location bar.

Now I want to add a combo box that is always visible where I can select the engine to do searching. I downloaded a search extension (Search Box), but it's an icon that needs to be clicked before you can interact with it:

SB

TL;DR;

I want a box that is always visible and can change the search engine from a drop-down. Is there an extension like this available in Chrome?
