jeff, put me down for a camera mount

when you got it ready let me know and we'll meet as convenient so no shipping involve

[GTSOwner]

I can't really say that I've tested it out thoughrouly (darn fenders), but I can certainly testify that it's a very nice part and awesome service.

Will let you know when I try it out... Fo'REAL!

[j0e_p3t]

how much would shipping be for a 3pr to 90501?

[Defgeph]

Probably less than 30 Joe.

[Remy]

Can I get a shipping quote to 55130 for the rear strut bar ?? Thanks

[palooke]

would like a camera mount..put me down

[j0e_p3t]

kinda ot, but are you gonna be making a 3 point front strut bar too?

[Defgeph]

Thats in the works Joe. We still need to make one and test it.

[Batman722]

a couple old camera mount pics I had





great product.

[j0e_p3t]

hmm... i'm definitely interested in both. so would it be okay for me to wait and buy them both at the same time? that should save a lil on shipping right. unless you're only gonna be making the 3pr's for a limited time or what-not.

Do you need to bolt the bottom part of the strut bar to the floor? (requiring drilling) or does it just kinda sit there?

I'm definately interested. I've contacted you about it, and like I said, it'll be a while before I can get it, but I do want one. I just want to make sure you'll still have one/will still be making them when I do eventually want one.

there is no drilling involve, is bolted to the floor in a factory bolt, all you'd need is replace the bolt with a longer bolt.

[6gcSTVT]

Jeffs rear 3pt bar is amazingly strong, i had first hand experience seeing it and touching it. I would buy one if I didn't already have one.

Bump for a great product

[Defgeph]

Yes, same for you. I try to not over charge for shipping. If you over pay for shipping I mail you back the difference. If shipping is more than I asked you for, I pay the rest. Good deal huh ?

have you ever heard of money orders? why don't you take the advice that we have given you? set up a paypal with your savings account (or whatever account your ATM card is attached to) and you can buy stuff online. it's not as hard as you think it is. you will need to get your account and routing #s from your bank in order to do so.

[DeW_H0e_GT]

thanks jeff

on a side note - what bolt size did u use to secure the bottom hatch?

[1bwilson]

25$ shipped sounds great. PM me with paypal info and when you need the payment for the next order.

[Defgeph]

thanks jeff

on a side note - what bolt size did u use to secure the bottom hatch?

You just need a longer 12mm bolt, the stock bolt is to short.

25$ shipped sounds great. PM me with paypal info and when you need the payment for the next order.

You misunderstood me, its 100 + 25 shipping.

I can send one out to you next week if you are still interested.

Thanks guys,
DEF

[1bwilson]

Im sorry, I did understand. Just missed the 1 key is all

This post has been edited by 1bwilson: Aug 29, 2007 - 1:02 PM

[mrgrape]

got mine! :0

oh yeah ummm where do i get a new bolt???
and dammmmmn this thing is sooo hard to install for a newb by himself!!lol
im gonna have my friend help tomorrow

[DeW_H0e_GT]

^^^ x2 got mines today and what an mazing work def has done keep it up.....

as for the longer 12mm bolt, jus take yoru original bolt out & go to any auto parts store n they can get one for u, installation should be a breeze......

take out your shock tower cover, undo 4 of teh shock tower bolts & 1 on teh floor of teh trunk (12mm), install the strut bar and put on all thigns u removed back to its original place..sounds easy? it IS easy...

[mrgrape]

wow that is easy lol didnt know i had to take out those 4 thanks!!!!

[notbok]

I am interested in purchasing the rear seat strut bar possibly next week if you are still gonna be selling them. Also, whats shipping to 12801. Thanks.

[Defgeph]

I'm happy you guys got them so fast. Enjoy it guys.


NOTBOK- NE would be Nebraska, correct ?
If so It would be 130 shipped. I can most likely send one out next week.


Let me know, I'll send over my paypal info


Thanks guys,
DEF


PS, dont for get the feedback system

[notbok]

no no NE as in north east, but my zip is 12801, ny.

[mrgrape]

wheres the feedback system
2nd what kind of bolt do i replace the middle one with???
i looked at autozone and i bought a 12mm bolt but it was smaller then the factory........
also would i even need to bolt the middle in??if i already have the others bolted in?

the middle bolt is the entire reason for the 3 point bar in the rear

take your old blot out, then go to home depot and get one the same pitch, just longer.

[mrgrape]

how much longer!!! ahhhh soo confusing

[6strngs]

I think Defgeph should just run out to home depot and get a bunch of the right size bolt and just include it with the strut bar. I'm sure it wouldn't cost much extra, probably like $.20 per bolt. I can't ever find metric size bolts in any of my local hardware stores, and trust me, I've tried...

[LewFX]

i might be interested in one pending i sale some highs and my old gt4 bar

[Defgeph]

Notbok - Its a good thing I asked about NE. It would be 120 shipped for you.


As its been stated earlier in this thread. Remove the middle bolt, take it to an ace hardware, ask them for the same bolt 3 inches long.


Thanks guys,
DEF


One of our members used this bolt that worked perfectly.

The perfect bolt for this would be:

8mm-1.25 x 30mm bolt. (13mm head)

[notbok]

120shipped? cool. I will definetly be getting one either this comn friday - saturday... any idea how long it will take to arrive after payment? Also have you or anyone else noticed the strut bar while driving?

[ra65_22re]

how much would one be shipped to WA 98499? are you goin to be making one for the front strut bar anytime soon?

[azn87]

[Defgeph]

I'm not making any bars at this time, I am very busy with work. If work ever slows down for me, which I hope it doesn't. I'll start making these again.

You'll see a new thread if it happens again.
