I can't believe @memario1214 didn't make the list. After I ordered some SSC2s and asked for advice on wiring, he called me to ensure that we were on the same page before enlisting @caribe makaira to solve the equation for us.

Also @crashnburn80 might not be a vendor, but that man puts crazy amounts of time and effort to provide us with science based facts in this over saturated world of false advertising in the lighting industry.

I've yet to interface with @memario1214 but methinks the bug will get me soon.

Honestly, @crashnburn80 is one I regret not thinking of in the moment. Along with @Jeff Lange @Jowett @gearcruncher , always Giants in adding useful, factual and data heavy stuff. True gems that make tw worth wading through the smut for.

Thanks for the shout out. Good to see a thread where it’s just “hey, someone did something right”
I just do stupid things with wires, but guys like @MESO and @kmorgan3 Who actually go to the trouble of get a product produced (and soon maybe @daveeasa) putting actual capital on the line are the ones that make the mod scene what it is.
Guys like @no vtec 4me who found a niche and fill it, all while just being a great resource as well are definitely adding to the great community (you think you ask him some pointless questions, you should see what I’ve put him through). He has always been happy to answer my questions. For a year and a half. Without me even ordering anything yet. That’s service
And @caribe makaira is always happy to answer my stupid questions. He may think what I am doing is odd or have a different way of doing it, but he’s always been willing to help. Regardless of how crazy my questions or ideas, he’s willing to help make it possible.
The other one I’d like to add would be @memario1214 When it comes to dealing with my indecisiveness, he has taken the brunt of it. But through it all, he’s been happy to guide and suggest what he thinks is best, and when I totally ignore his advice, he’s happy to go along with the idea, no matter how stupid, and see what the final result is.

That attitude is why you're here buddy.

Seriously, what the fuck is a trophy point?

Does it have to be vendors? Because if it isn't I'll throw @tonered in for a kudo or twenty. Tony has helped me out with all kinds of Techstream stuff, etc. He's always patient with folks when they ask the same question a billion times (myself included).

Second for @tonered! I was so lost on some VFTune stuff, couldn't get a response from the vendor, but he stepped in and got me straightened out right away. I was and am greatly appreciative of anyone who helps out others simply because they have the knowledge and ability to do so. Thanks everyone

Skydvrr[OP] initial post: ↑

After a weird few weeks of electronic crib deaths, other fuckery, wack ass supply chain nonsense and other Karen self entitledness, I thought I would give a shout-out to the vendors who went above and beyond and acted like another human being to get my particular issue sorted out.

Figured it might be cool to start a thread of positive interactions with tw vendors so the numbers could speak for themselves.

@MESO because the dude is always a treat to work with, knows his shit and always willing to geek out with one off, random projects and puts his money where his mouth is.

@N2DesignsInc, after fiddling with my trucks fiddly bits, my remote start stopped working. Keep in mind I bought the remote start from another non-existent vendor, but Jimmy was still willing to call me on a Saturday and lead me in the right direction to getting it all sorted out.

@no vtec 4me I've had hours of dialogue. Multiple bhlm and random wiring issues later, dude is still helping me and willing to make sure everything is sorted on my end.

@TWTaco @PapaRee , do I even need to say anything? Rad ass tune. Rad ass humans. Also, cool stickers!

@kmorgan3 @caribe makaira @Puppypunter and @daveeasa, always pushing the OEM plug n play break out harnesses, tail lights, passengers door handle, 3rd brake light, etcetcetc.

Everyone listed here is a stand up human, I have no issue with giving my wallet. Of course this is my experience, chime in with your own positive experiences!
