Thanks, this has been helpful.. I've had one heck of a time trying to get one side to fit... I've already got 2+ hours on the passenger one and still nothing... I'm not sure if something is different on mine as far as some of the hose routing...but they don't want to fit and I've done a lot of cutting... there isn't much left and they still don't fit....

For lack of a better work, they are a bitch to put one. They really look good one, but I will never take these off if I dont have to. Had scrapes and scratches on my hands for weeks there after!!

I had ordered mine back at the end of January and hadn't heard anything, so I emailed them 2/26 and got a very nice reply the same day from Deanne Wagner saying that it would take a minimum 8 weeks to ship mine due to a number of orders pending.....

You might want to try emailing her directly. Here is her address: dwagner@afterthoughtsauto.com

EDIT:
Whoa!! Look what I just received!!! Maybe it's telepathy..... [Eek!]

LOL!!!

"Hello. Our supplier is starting on the batch that is right before yours now so you are getting closer. ;-) We'll let you know once your order starts production. Thanks for your patience."

Thanks... I feel a little better about how bad I'm having to hack them up. I think I messed one up though so I may have to buy another... I'm going to shelve this project for a while as I have some other stuff to do... that and I got completely frustrated yesterday....
