Hopefully, he'll fix whatever issue he's having and get back on producing these.

Damn. Coulda sworn it was live last night when I attempted. I did again now and you're right.

Why in the hell are they paying to have that website up is baffling. Hosting isn't free. I just don't get it.

Yeah that doesn't make sense to me either. But in any case i really want this wiper delete kit. So i'll continue to check the site on a regular basis or look elsewhere.

I did this over the weekend but used the big faucet topper. doesnt look right so I took it off and bought a hillman 1" and a 7/8". Will be redoing that to make it look better. I might just dremel the hatch a little to make room for the 1".

Thanks for this DIY!

Did this over the weekend. Originally used the faucet topper and it was just too big for my liking. Swapped out for a 1" Hillman metal plug color matched with ax6, dremelled the hole to make it fit, didnt need much though.
