I installed my handles this weekend and it wasn't too bad. I was able to get everything back together with nothing loose or rattling. I think the chrome handles really add to the rest of the MGW chrome pieces ...

 

trust me , the saftey goggles bit aint a bad rec......I was taking my wilwood big brake kit out of the freakin box a month or so ago and the new lokar emergency brake cable popped out of the box and the end of the stainless cable poked straight through my eye lid into my eye......had to wear a patch for a week....now I wear saftey goggles when opening boxes too

 

heh heh, that sucks man, but it would have been able to talk like a pirate for a week . I still wouldnt bother with them for most car related stuff. I only use em for when theres some sort of open thing spinning at me, ie weedwhacker, grinder, etc

 

Hey 05YellowGT, do you have anymore pix of your car, especially the interior? What wood kit is that?

Thanks.

 

Looks like the woodview or the B&I kit - I can get either one for you if you want.

 

Tom , I tried to e-mail you using the link , but it crashed my lotus notes. So I just replied to your e-mail , if it doesn't get through let me know and I'll try again ...

 

I got the pix- thank you very very much- they look great!

 

Marcello, hey any word on the deluxe versions coming out? Hadnt heard anything on them in a while, thought I would see what was in the mix, I know you have about 18,000 projects and all, LOL. Thanks for looking into the lugnut idea. Well hopefully the louvers are coming along. Man I love your stuff. I need to work some more overtime thou, lol. Later.

 

Any news or photos on the deluxe versions? I love the traditional, but before I place an order I gotta see what the deluxes are all about.

 

Well, we are so close it's not funny - but last night there was an offset that was wrong, and it took out the jaws used to hold the part....

So, two steps forward, 5-6 back...

We are done with the design phase, now it's just getting it machined consistently, and in a reasonable time. While I can justify 3 hour cycle times for my own "toys" I don't think you'd want to pay for that as a customer, so we're working on getting the cycle time minimized right now.

As soon as we have sent off the first set for anodizing or plating, I'll post up pictures - they really do look nice, although our "traditional" ones do as well, so it's really just a matter of personal taste when you see the deluxe versions.

 

Either way, your stuff has an excellent reputation, so I'm not worried.

 

how hard is the install?

 

1/2 hour per side, tops. I had doors apart on another guy's car this weekend trying out yet another "project", and the R&R is easy - what we were up to was not...

And that's all I can say on that for now.

Basic directions can be D/L from the main section of our website, under the how-to section if you're interested - speaking of which, we need to post the cup holder install sheets up there too now that I wrote them.

 

LOL, cup holder install sheets?
1. Remove junk from cup holder.
2. place bezel into place.
3. smile, you did it yourself.

Just had to give you some trouble Marcello.

 

Yeah,that about covers it too

Don't forget to peel back the Velcro...

 

Or make it super solid and remove the center console drill holes, and bolt it in. This is what I did and I love it. Marcello's parts are addictive,LOL. I am sure I will soon be adding the auto bezel as well, I am disappointed in the roush bezel. Yes I had it before yours was out, and of course yours will dominate. Need the louvers painted, lol, it never ends.

 

I left the velcro off, makes it easier to get the junk out of the holes.
