Steve in Chicago !
I had a few toys installed today..I think I met JokrzWild there. Steves a busy man in Chi-town this weekend ! Pretty sure he had at least 8 customers coming in. Anyone else from here ? Wifey was far enough away when I settle up with him ! She wants to take my beast to a party tonight to see how the door sills look at night.....door ding nightmare setting in !

Kev is correct on location and he will be here tomorrow for a while e-mail his sister and she may be able to get ahold of him...but he seems to run a pretty tight ship...not sure if he would be able to do anything out of schedule...I could not watch the install...its 40 miles from the house and the wife followed me down to drop off the car...plus I'd rather not see the carnage while the stuff was installed...he's a cool guy and knows his **** thats for sure...

Jangy...wait til your kids are old enough to look at you like you have 3 heads !! When I went out to look at this...they said "Dad...you're not right !" This was probably the silliest thing I've ever done to a car ! Anyone know where I can get some nice curb feelers ?

Hehe, $1000 for some lit sills is pretty funny. But you gotta admit they look pretty sweeeet at night.
Kids are such a reality check. My family already thinks I'm kookoo for nuts and bolts, and I guess I am.

Nothing MB related (sorry)
Hey, Bob! It is great to see that you like your new toys! We hope you fully enjoy them, and it was a pleasure to help you get them. 
... it's so funny to see that most of you guys don't want your 'better halves' to know what the mods cost...
I am pretty sure that your wives KNOW that these mods cost more than whatever amount you tell them. We (as in 'women') are not crazy, you know. 
@ catalystkid: All mods that are being performed this weekend have been confirmed upfront by means of a deposit. If you want to be included in a future Chicago trip, you can send us an email with parts you want / need.
greetingz,
BigSis

Vader; yep that was me, your ride looks sweet! Sorry we did not have time to share a 'beverage' as my canadian friends say. Steve is awesome and did my install in about 90 minutes as I had the voice recog. module installed. I watched him place the UH-1 kit in a new E500 in @ 40 minutes! His hands never left his wrists! Again much gratitude to our host in chicago for the great friendship! Joker

... shall I put you down for lowering then? A Mexican/Sicilian wife... that's a 'deadly' combination, if you ask me. Now I know why you didn't tell her.

He has too much to do, and I don't want to call him and keep him from work. I read your thread about the keyless go nightmare you had... I hope you can get this worked out.
