The last 5 kits I shipped to us has been very delayed. I am not sure why.
I ship untracked to make the kit cheap. And I only lost 1 kit in the mail. Please be patient.

Still waiting for my order to arrive. No follow up from vendor.
How long am I supposed to be patient? _________________ What are the last 2 words of the National Anthem?

Parts arrived today in a plain brown envelope. No postage no nothing. Must be some secret shipping method.

Its a wacum cleaner bag reinforced by packing tape. I try to be green and recycle when I can.
Shipping is called mobile stamp.
You buy it online and write the secret code on the envelope.
Maybe it will come to USA some day
Glad it arrived.
I have sold over 150 of these kits and only lost 1 kit in the mail. So I don't complain over postal services. _________________ Andy V.

I installed these rivets on my top frame - good quality parts, no problem there.
It was, however, quite a bit of work to drill out the old pivots/rivets. More work than I expected, but the results are worth it. _________________ Mike B. |

So less than a month to receive? Doesn't seem terrible, considering this is low cost postage from Eruope.....
Andy, I just placed my order today! I'm excited at the prospect of dropping my top by myself! My 13 year old TTS reinforced top frame is Stiff to operate! _________________ '74 Thing, "Our Thing"....

I ground the small side of the rivets then used a punch to knock the rivets out. No drilling needed. |

Interesting product, not something I really need, but I plan on ordering a set due to the peer pressure. Gotta keep up with the Domecks, as they say. Cliff W. in western Pa. |

What are the reviews of these after they have been installed? Do they make it much easier to raise and lower the top? |
