    It's one thing to cut some cable the wrong length expecially since you had helpers for this GB, but this is lack of detail. And complete lack of communication that you haven't acknowledged each personally with the issues. I personally routed the wiring as done from the factory and a mix up I can understand, but now I'm in it for twice the work. Answer your PMs and emails.

    I dunno, man. I'd like to hear something, too, as I'm trying to remain optimistic.

    I haven't been on because I have been trying to get everything sorted out. I took on WAY more than I was prepared to, and with some business and personal issues coming up it has really gotten over my head. I have directly contacted Tcbob to let him know I am still trying to get this fixed and get everyone the things they paid for. I had an issue when asking for those who didn't receive their stuff to pm me, and then find out that I DID already ship to them, and they tried to scam me out of supplies. Some were legit of course and I am slowly trying to get things fixed here. I have NOT forgotten you. I am just working 2 full time jobs right now trying to get this all done. You all know me. I'm just trying to get this all fixed. I promise I'll never do another GB of this scale because I don't want this to happen again. I have let so many of you down and I do feel bad about it.

    Who are the scammers... help to stay away from those who intentionally did such things...but do you have proof? Or was it just cross shipped the time you ship to the time they say they didn't receive.

    Bill, since I haven't received any products or paid, since I'm still waiting for an invoice, should I consider my order "cancelled?". I have the money just waiting on you, man. What would you like to do?

    Once you get everyone taken care of, I'd like to re discuss my issue. I appreciate how attentive you were, and I'm sure that you and I can come to a simple solution. I'm patient, so no rush.

    Overall the kit is excellent quality but I also had issues with the Xscorpion battery terminals. The readout on my positive terminal never worked and I broke the negative terminal trying to get it tight enough. I ordered another negative Xscorpion terminal and shim from Amazon.com and it still wouldn't tighten enough. I said phuck that, ordered military style terminals and a set of two cost less than a single Xscorpion terminal. It will be much easier to set up a winch now, which was my whole reason for wanting the electrical upgrade kit in the first place.

    Had to break off the top of the negative to get it to fit correctly as well, and the voltage readout never worked either.

    Not sure why there have been issues with the voltage readout. Should work if you connect the black wire to ground, and the red and blue wire to battery positive.
