My lastest info is they are shipped in ******** (big boxes) 15 units in a box and they BEGIN to ship today. They then have to repackage them individualy so the soonest anyone will see these is around May 10. That's the latest may be inaccurate again? Who knows!

I am with you. I want these, but I am willing to find other ones, if MRT can not make good on their word. Integrity is everything. I hope they do come out soon though, I have 2 car shows in June.

.. but from all the orders I see on here, and if they are in fact getting them in, they'll be hard pressed to get them shipped out real quick... One of the things I asked about was who they used for shipping and wanted to make sure it was packed good, cause I've gotten things like those that were big, dimensionally speaking and they were usually damaged in shipment to some degree :bang: They said they were packaging them in real good boxes???

Shipped via UPS ground, the first ones available are the one piece units and shipping coast to coast would run $130-$160 dollars.

As I read this thread for the first time, I find all this very interesting.... I originally ordered my rear window louvers from California Mustangs the 1st week of February, knowing then (they said...) that they would not be available until 1st week of April. So on Tuesday April 5th, I call them, and they tell me there is a manufacturing problem and they won't be available until the end of May first of June!! :bang: So I start looking around on the net and find MRT's rear window louvers, and their site saying Early April too. I call MRT and ask if their louvers are available and explain my situation and that California Mustang said there was a manufacture issue, etc.. (As most of the distributors are getting their window louvers from the same place...) Anyway...
MRT tells me on the phone that they are getting their rear window louvers in by the end of the week, April 8th and will be shipping the following week.. So I order them form MRT and call California Mustang to cancel my previous order with them.
So April 12th rolls rolls round, I email MRT and again, I get the song and dance, they say "getting them the end of the week, shipping the next week". So I wait impatiently for the next week to roll around, yet again.. Then I email them, again, the week of April 18th.. yet AGAIN they say "getting them the end of the week, shipping the next week".. now I'm getting a little upset and ask them if they know or not for certain they are getting them and when??, I tell them that I'm getting tired of the song and dance, no explanation of why each week I get the same story.. They respond this time that they are finished and now they are trying to figure out how to get them shipped to MRT from the manufacture.. and again "getting them the end of the week, shipping the next week".. then after that conversation, I hit their web site and see the web page has changed from "Targeted Ship Date: Early April" to "Targeted Ship Date: April 25".. I find it interesting that they tell "outdoorstom" April 7th, 2 days after they tell me they are getting them "the end of the week" that they won't be available until May 15th? Then it's May 16th... any body find this a little disceptive?
I know some of ya'all are going to say, good things come to those that wait... but I'd rather be told the truth then lied too!
With a specific date of today on their web site, I hope this time it's true!!

Anybody get a personal ship date from MRT? I sent them an email 2 days ago asking about the status of my order and haven't gotten a reply yet?
They "were" real responsive to previous emails before :scratch: ?

PLEASE READ
Only the "REAR" louvers are due in from California on Monday NOT THE QUARTER LOUVERS
I just talked with Kim, my sales rep at MRT. She said the rear ones will be shipped middle of next week, but the quarter side louvers are still due in MAY 15th...and are still being retooled..... :bang: Darn it!!!!

Starting to sound like another guy here but that one was about a tune for his cold air system. I have a standing order for these louvers when ever they arrive but did not know shipping was that high. WOW looks like a fuel price issue.

Bill, are you talking about the rear louvers or the quarter side louvers?
