    50/50 chance that’s what you’d get. In this case the “community” being nosy passengers.

    Threadjack to the Meso goodness. Looks like you installed yours opposite of how I did mine. I noticed they are asymmetric and thought I got it oriented correctly. Need to go check now.

    I’m so happy with my handle. I guess I’m one of the lucky ones. Since I went on the KTJO website and all throughout the order process they have been nothing but honest. Was told about long lead times with preorders. Was told the shipments would come in two separate packages. Received an email describing the situation. Received all shipping info and tracking numbers. Received all parts and hardware. Everything fit perfectly. No cutting, trimming, or bending of any sort. Hope others have a good experience as well! It was definitely worth it for me. Nobody else makes this handle, so I honestly didn’t mind waiting for something I really wanted.

    Hey Benny...yeah, the cover flops. I believe by design. As some have stated, you can store a couple of Altoids or chapstick in there. Personally, I leave mine hanging as a safety measure. When I exceed about 55mph with the windows down, it starts fluttering in the wind acting as a speed alarm. You should hear that bastard slapping the pillar 600 times a minute. It's probably saved me no less than 17 speeding tickets. I can't believe Meso didn't come up with this idea first...

    Honestly, the pry tool was unexpected and appreciated. It was also the most cosmetically and functionally perfect part of the purchase.
