    I wonder if we could “re-order” now. She already has all the money. :deadhorse:

    Should ship right away given the recent history. :rofl::rofl:

    ordinarily I’d say “get in line, bud” but that won’t work given that the shipping method being used in this case is unknown to civilized society. :wave::wink:

    In regard to the survey, mine was 99% perfect, needing only a simple clip/nut to be replaced. So, I checked both "magically perfect" and "incorrect hardware." Sounds contradictory.

    It is a usable grab handle. Feels like a solid installation.

    As they say, "trust in the universe". Plug and play, just as advertised. 30 days from order to install. I had to slightly persuade the top mount - bending it 1/8" maybe towards the door. Bottom cover took some massaging to make it look right. A tiny bit of superglue in the alignment hole to make it stick.
    1st try: bend top mount,
    2nd try: suck it up
    3rd try: loosen and align properly before retightening

    30 minutes to play around and get it right. Yay! Now I have a grab handle there. Next!

    That is a bit of a rosy view of things, IMHO, but considering the average, you're well above it.

    I went from "Ordered" to "Stuck in Shipping Label Created Purgatory" to "Other" in the last hour or so as the poll has matured. Just checked the tracking status and the status on mine went from "Shipping Label Created" to "Accepted" at the USPS in St Helens, OR.

    Ordered: 12/22
    Shipped: 12/27
    At USPS: 12/28

    Now we'll see what the USPS does with it and what it looks like when it arrives.

    I thought the same thing. The screws turned out to be correct (metric 6mm x 1.0). The nut is oversized. Don't do anything until you remove your "A" pillar garnish and try a bolt in the upper bracket.

    Don't check that OG box.


    At least with USPS and you being on the other side of the universe, you might getting pretty quickly?

    I moved back to "Ordered." Thought the OG would be better since I've moved past Label Purgatory...but I don't want to screw up the science! :D

    Who knows what will happen with the USPS?
