I figure it'll probably end up going freight - one nice thing about living in Long Beach is pretty much every freight forwarder in North America has a base within 10 miles of here.

Yah, thanks. I got it yesterday, and put it in the car. Your packing technique was a little interesting. I opened all of the little boxes, thinking there might be a present inside!! BTW, what did you do with the 14 holes that are in your car now?

heh yeah blake, i sold mine.... I hadn't really intended to, but Eyal asked the forum if anyone would sell him one, and Ted ended up getting mine and Eyal is getting Ted's new one (he will have to wait 4 weeks, and its local to Eyal)...

Ted, I just wanted to adequately protect it... sorry to have disappointed you :P You already got it put in?? How was the install process.. it came with my car so I didn't actually have to make the holes, and just taking it in and out was already enough of a PITA! I haven't done anything yet with the holes, I've got some carpet patches left by the PO that i'll put back in soon... hopefully I'll either put some small bolts in place or maybe filler or something.. hopefully before it rains next

^^Maybe you can find some rubber plugs, and jam them through. It would probably blend much nicer than the bolts. It was a PITA to put in, making sure it is perfect in everyway. And yes, thank you for taking the extra time to package it so well.

Hey ivai, just out of curiousity, do you have any pics of the black accents / stone guards on your car? It looks an awful lot like mine and maybe you can comment on this:

https://rennlist.com/forums/924-931-944-951-968-forum/197066-poll-opinions-of-new-product-960-stone-guards.html

It looks like you did something similar in that pic. . .

Actually, I *think* they're off a 930.. they were (like my roll bar and wheels) with the car when I bought it... Anyways, I'll post some pics in that thread you listed.

Hint: PO in my 951S left five bolt holes per side but carpet flapped nicely over same...but I still didn't care for the duct tape water sealing strategy. Went to Advance Auto and purchased blister packs with two different sizes of black plastic body/interior panel buttons. The Ford/Chrysler ones with 3/4th inch rounded head fit perfectly. Stuck a little black silicone on the back sides and they snapped right into the holes. Look OE from the top and make perfect water seals thanks to the threaded shafts and the silicone.

I'll have a very similiar bar (Autopower) available in the next week - I'm getting a custom cage installed. I'll get pictures and post 'em in the next couple days. I'm in Columbus, Ohio and I'd rather not go through the hassle of shipping the darn thing. Send me a PM if you're interested.
