I'll be in the Bay Area tomorrow so, if you need anything, just call the shop number and it will forward to me. Thanks.

Steve

Sorry I couldn't make it over there today. I have everything loaded in the back of the SUV, but my office is a serious black hole right now. If I get within 5ft of it, I'm sucked & don't leave for hours on end. "Waging war online" & "pandemonium" are two of my favorite sayings lately. I'll be by 100% for sure on Friday when you're back.

C-Dub, thanks for giving me a buzz. I'll get the KW's from Dr.Steve & get in-touch with KW in Sanger so they can test em' before we take the H&R's/RDR's off for you. Did the 1st International Federated Bank of Jen approve this purchase?

Whenever bruthaman! I'll be running over to the shop at 12:30'ish tomorrow afternoon if you wanna run by. The battery box delete + install is absolutely amazing. I keep opening my hatch to look at it. Now that's what I call top-notch craftsmanship! I'm glad Monday's a holiday - I'll work 2/3 day, then run to Dave Kurata's & then to All Star Glass to keep a lil' star filled with epoxy. I'm stayin' on-track to AMVIV.

Dr. Steve, I picked up a Parrot Hands Free Car Kit at Circuit City today for pretty cheap. The box says "Professional Installation Recommended", so I am not one of those. So, if you have a spare Saturday, that would be great.

You vulture! Which model did you get? I've done a bunch of CK3100s. Next Saturday (24th) afternoon is open.

I got the fancy one with the color screen, I think it is a 3200LS.

The 24st. sounds good. Do I need to get a special bracket(s) or the adapter kit they mentioned on the website?

I have one adapter kit in stock. I shouldn't need anything else.

Nope, I had one complete setup left. I don't know anything about the kits at Circuit City. I use an adapter kit that doesn't require any wire cutting.

C-Dub, I ordered my rears from R1 today & am having them shipped to the shop. I got the premium drilled with black centers & edge(s). Should go out in the next 48 hours.

Possible ending to the 1969 version of The Italian Job.
