I could do a trip to NYC as an alternative. I saw most of your demand from the northeast is in NYC, so keep that in mind.

Sam and Mark,

We will keep in mind that the both of you are willing to drive to NYC, if needed. But again, it depends on how many confirmed orders we have (it is possible that Steve will fly from NY area to DC, just to do a couple of installs - like he did last time he was there).

AND it depends on where the person is located who offers us a garage to work from. Steve has been in NYC several times, now. But he also performed installs in CT and in NJ...

greetingz,

BigSis

If you want us to put your name on our future install list and contact you as soon as Steve starts arranging another East Coast trip, you better send us an email.

Info@MBenzNL.com. Thanks.

Just a reminder for those who have been thinking about getting some modifications done in the LA area, the SF area, seattle or vancouver and haven't confirmed yet:

I will be in the US during week 3 and 4 of august and will have to ship (and occasionally even order) all the requested parts upfront...I am currently still in singapore and will only have a very short week at home to get the US trip prepared.

So for those who do want to get something installed and haven't confirmed yet - this is the time to do so; thanks.

greetingz from singapore,

It has been said many times already that Steve and Dean ROCKS!! They installed the Euro COMAND, TV tuner, power folding mirrors, euro anti-blindspot mirrors, and lowered the beast 3/4" (max that it will go) for me.

Very cool, professional, and they take their work with pride, working late into the night for customers. THANKS!!!!!

And Steve is a Metallica fan!

For all those interested people in FL... We are really willing to try and set up a trip for Steve, but as Steve said before in one of his posts here: somehow FL doesn't come through.

People are interested, and we contact them as soon as we want to set up an FL trip - for which we need deposits, to prevent us from shipping goods in vain and knowing how much time is needed to perform all installs! - and then people start asking for dates and locations they want to know first... don't want to drive to Steve but want him to drive to their houses...

This really isn't the way we work - or can work. Sorry.

I explained how we work earlier - please read through that again. And if you really are interested, don't mind paying a deposit to confirm your order and waiting for dates as soon as all orders have been confirmed, and if you don't mind driving to Steve wherever he may be in FL and compensate part of the travel expenses... then please, feel free to contact us.

greetingz,

BigSis

greetingz,
I will give a deposit whenever you need it. I'm in the DC/Baltimore area and have a 3 car garage that Steve can use to do all the work. Just let me know and I'll set everything up. Hopefully we'll see you soon.
