HD Xmas

Well today was a great day at my house! Fed-X showed up twice each time with a package, and UPS showed up twice, once with one package, once wtih two.

But before we get into that, here is a quick pic of her on our trip back to Memphis, TN from Tampa, FL. We are somewhere off 78 in MS at a rest stiop:

But now onto the goodies!

Not shown is my Class IV hitch that I will install tomorrow morning.

This is a group picture:

A-Pillar gaug pod with boast and oil presure. Also, you see I recieved my Chrome Lower Grill replacment. Great work and heavy! I wonder if they will make one so that I can replace the plastic crap one ford has up top. Anyway, here it all is up close:

These are "Wet Okole" seat covers. I started off with just two for the front (just under 300 bucks) to see how I like them. The quality and craftmanship are excelent! Once I get them on I am sure I'll be wanting to get a second set for the rear seats:

(Yes I will post pics once they are on!)

.
.

Top keep the hitch reciever clean, and becuase my wife drives it mostly she thought this was really cute when I mentioned it to her (different than simply a chrome prop' you often see):


.
.

And lastly, to my surprise I got the Ford HD set people have been talking about. I wasn't sure exactly what you were talking about until today! NICE:


.
.

To bad I am moving into my house this weekend Sad. All this stuff, with the exception of the hitch, will have to wait to be installed!!!

Zinc, everything looks great. Can't wait to see it all on. The seat covers will really save on seat wear also. Too bad you couldn't get a HD/f150 logo on em anyway i see you got hte bra. I posted this in another thread, but its more fitting here so i'll repost it.

Hey Zinc, i see you got the HD bra. Did you get it from Reggy? So many people emailed me about his address i can't remember who all asked me for it. Anyway, he has mirror bra's coming in for those big mickey mouse mirrors for the trucks. Those things are bug-magnets. If you wanted to get a set and If you need his address again just email me, if not, just tell him Josh Verdieck sent ya.


Good luck and have fun installin all your mods!

Yeah I got the front end cover from Reggie... great guy. Which reminds me, I need to send him the $ for the mirror covers. I already spoke to him about that.

The seat covers are cool, I wanted to get Harley-Davidson on it where they put FORD, but they don't have the lic. to do so.

Maybe I can sneak that job in and put them on tomorrow... I'll try.

All prices include shipping/handling charges:

The Putname Class 4 Hitch I could of got a bit cheapr, but everyone said three weeks to get it (they obviosly didn't have them in stock). Express Dist. had them in stock and I had it in about a week including the weekend:

ExpressDistributing.com
10943 wheatlands Ave., Ste B
Santee, CA 92071
(619) 258-8237
$155.69

The WET OKOLE "Water Proff Seat Covers" were bought directly from thier web page. Do a Google search. But thier snail mail is:

Wet Okole
1727 Superior Ave.,
Costa Mesa, CA 92627-3614
949-548-1543
$284.00

The Chrome Grill I got from:

J&J Enterprises
http://www.j-jent.com
5498 Mission Blvd.
Ontario, CA 91762
909-628-1929
$102.15

Mercury Boat Motor Hitch Cover:

Incrediblegifts.com
1-800-982-5992
$50.11 (this was for TWO of them)


The A-Pillar Pod and Auto-Meter gauges I got from Summit a few weeks back... don't have the invoice handy.

I also have a Bedrug that I bought from a place that is 20 miles down the road from where they are made... so they can get them FAST if they are not in stock. If you need that info let me know.

The Front End Cover (Bra) I got rom the infamous Reggie... if you need his info let me know that too.

Hope this is the info you were looking for.

Yeah, I'll bite. Who's Reggie? I'd like to have the H-D front end cover seen on the http://www.fordvehicles.com/features/harley/ page under "vehicle accessories"; does he sell these or is this some other brand?

Just called the place about the lower grille insert. Jeffrey says it goes in over the stock insert with just a couple of brackets. Sounds like an easy enough install there.

And the Summit Racing instrument pods are KEWL!! Are you installing those yourself, or having the dealership do it?

(Sorry for all the questions. New-truck-excitement here! )

MyBad, it's REGGY... his email address is: Hrd2gethese@aol.com Let him know that Tim from Memphis sent you.

To give proper credit Harley#356 is the one that hooked me up with him. BTW, the Front End Cover (Bra) is really nice as it does not have an opening in the front for a plate like a lot do-- so you have full coverage. Also, as long as you are shelling out the $120'ish (I forget what it was exactly), shell out another 40 bucks and get the "mirror covers" for your side mirrors.

I didn't like the Front End Cover that Ford (re)sells becuase it does not protect the lower bumber. I went with Reggy's full front cover. And though it does not have the HD Logo on the front, it didn't matter as I don't use the hood piece as a bought the Bug Deflector that Ford also (re)Sells that does have the HD logo.

As for the gauges. <shrug> Some days I am adventurous, somedays I'm not. Today I am on the fench

Yeah, when you email him, tell him that Tim and Josh Verdieck sent ya. He might be able to hook ya up with word that 2 guys recommended ya to him.

As for the bra, its a colgan bra that reggy has them custom make to fit the HD front end becaus the ford one doesn't cover the bumper. And as Zinc said, it comes with a hood piece, but i don't use it either because i have the HD bugguard

As for the plate hole, you can get it with either, just let him know, i got it with hte hole for the plate, becaues jersey is a PITA with their front plates.

And yes, as zinc said, if your gonna spend 120 bucks for a bra, why not get the mirror ones too. Just tell him if you have the signal mirrors or not and he'll send em to ya.

I got my front end bra for $60 bucks and he just mailed the mirror ones to me for free . It pays when you help out people. So if ya tell him Tim and Josh Verdieck sent ya, he may be able to hook ya up. I must have sent 2 dozen people to him so far. WIsh i thought up the idea to sell the bra's

good luck,, let us know how you make out.

the lowest i remember was 80 for the lower grille, but i guess since he's the only one that makes them he's upped the prices

maybe the 50 or 60 was the price that blwnhd#34 got for the innitial group purchase.
