Yup,

Reliable sources say the kits are done but (as above) the cable splitter wasn't up to par. People actually put their hands on the kits at Hershey and they said they looked spot on.

I'd say the best thing to do is give Steve a call for an update on the splitter. I just spoke to Ron (above) today and he had great things to say about them but lamented the splitter didn't look as good as the rest of the kit.

Steve wants to do this right.

Update: spoke to Steve yesterday the spitter came out great, now the final part are the cables which he expecting any day.

Once he has approved the sample from the vendor he should have them all within a few weeks.

Gauging interest in a Group buy for a GT Mechanical headlight Kit , it would be fabricated from Original GT parts. As soon as I have an idea on how many are interested the vendor can come up wiyh a cost, thanks.


What did the price end up being on the kits and are there any still available?

I had to drop out of this opportunity before Christmas 2006 because it had already taken over the original time expectation and I had to ship my package of GT conversion parts&car to the UK. It has been interesting (and considerably less frustrating) watching this from the sidelines.
I hope you all get your parts and the quality meets the high expectations that must have built up in peoples minds by now. If (and I hope when ) this kit actually becomes available and is proved in service, I hope someone directly involved has the fore thought to offer another batch for those mere mortals less patient than a Saint.

I look on with interest !!

I spoke with Steve yesterday, he is as frustrated as we are. the machine shop that is fabricating the swages is draging their feet getting them finished.

Steve has a lot of money and time invested in this project and to date has not cash anyone checks that have made payment and told me he wil not until he has everything for the kits, which is one part.

So that being siad he is committed to making this happen, so everyone hang in there.Thanks
