Unbelievable

That's hilarious! I sure hope that not too many people get suckered into that. What a ridiculous amount of money for something you can put together for yourself for under $25.

TAKE A LESSON IN CAPITALISM!!!

GUYS - this is almost identical to what I made. Aluminum cost me 3 bucks at a machine shop, LP signals (super shorties) cost me 18 bucks and 2.5 hours of my time - patiently BTW....PLEASE don't pay 150 bucks for this - I mean it's cool and they seem to have done a nice job, but take the money and buy something else - that's expensive for a bracket that probably costs 8 dollars in production1!!!

No, but it makes it worth more than 18 or 25 dollars. I wasn't sure if these guys knew what the package included.


Nice calm response :D

Your right - you cannot get the xtra stuff and expect to spend only 20 bucks.

:bs

I just hate how aftermarket accessory companies try and rape people who want to be the early adopters...

Yeah, the Lockhart flushmounts and/or short stalks cost cost twenty bucks a pair, so you're only paying $110 for an eight dollar piece of aluminum.

This kit includes fronts and rears. Either way, the mount is overpriced.
Yeah, that would be covered by my comment that the kit costs $150, minus $40 for front & rear sets of LP signals.

The remaining $110 is for an eight dollar piece of aluminum.
