Dennis I have 2 questions. Do the chrome handles shine a lot of sun in your eyes while driving, and are they hard to install? I have been debating putting them on and would like your opinion.
Thanx DAVID

Hey Bro..

No..I can honestly say I almost never even see a glint of the sun..They are low enough that the reflection goes over the top... but they are easy..The kit explains every thing.



1st. Romove Plastic Hood Piece

Open the hood and tap the three clips loose located at the rear of the part. Close the hood and pull the part loose. The instructions tell you to use a tool that won't scratch the paint to pry the clips loose. I assert that there is no such tool in existence and simply worked my way around with my fingers and popped each clip loose.

2nd. The Hole Template
The over priced kit comes with a hole template that you can just tape in place. You may need to clean the plastic to get the tape to stick.

3rd. Drilling The Holes

The instruction called for a much larger drill bit, but I used a 1/4 so the fit would be tighter. Of course this means that you need to drill the holes dead center of the template

4th. Attaching The Handle

Here is what the under side looks like after installing the hex head screws.


5th. Complete The Project

After attaching both handles just gently tap the unit back onto the hood. You are now ready to gaze at the Bit of Bling
