Talking

Ordered, them, installed them, look great, 20 minutes easy! Hard part was the switch plates, they didnt come with a sticky adhesive side. I e-mailed UPR and they said to use a clear silicone adhesive. I took it upon myself to go to Staples and get 3M Double Sided Sticky Squares and they work great, and they are removable as well, but the def do hold strong, check them out!!

Looks good. All you need now is a small Ford emblem to cover the engraved "UPR".

satin, but I think they sent the wrong one, i think they sent me the polished. But it still looks great, got them from UPR Products, paid 50 bucks with TMS discount. Not bad, and then 2.75 for the 3M Double Sided Sticky Squares I had to buy just to mount them

I would like to have them but don't like the UPR logo. Just wouldn't want to advertise for them. First thing when I got my car home I took off the dealers logo. Just me.

I like the quality look of those - better finished looking that the WoodView stuff - especially the beveled cut around the window switch openings and the outside edges look better finished as well....only negative is that logo - do they offer with/without logo?

I believe I saw some nice ones offered by Steeda that actually have the sides to them to - they go down to where the seam is - they looked very nice as well and I don't think they had the Steeda logo.....

I am hoping MGW will make some for us, there stuff is nice quality. I have been wanting to get the ones from UPR, but like you said, I don't want to have their logo on them. Hopefully our patience will pay off and we will be rewarding with great looking logo free window switch plates!

I emailed MGW yesterday to tell them how happy I was with the quality of their products and customer service. I also explained that there are many people waiting (myself included) for more of their products for the '05. I also explained that it would be nice to have the window switch plates similar to the ones from UPR but perhaps offer them in plain, engraved with the running pony, or a GT version. I received a reply in short order from George, one of the owners, who said they are working on the '05 products now like the ac *****, radio ****, e-brake, etc. I was glad to hear that, and will continue to wait for their products to come out. Sorry Paul for hijacking your thread, I just wanted to pass on what I heard.
