Fellow MX5 Nuts.
This is my first post. The post contains a warning to any member who is thinking of purhasing and fitting Jap Speed Style Bars from an eBay listed company named 2Fast2Cool2.
Unfortunately I recently purchased bars from the company. I was enticed by their presentation but most importantly I was sold by the company’s promise that the fitting was ‘a simple bolt on installation’.
The style bars arrived two days following my order but contained no fitting instructions. I scanned the net and found some. The instructions were to say the least complicated. The fitting included the dismantling of the seatbelt harnesses and cutting away part of the plactic moulding around the harness to accomodate the style bar mounting plates and enabling access to tighten the lug welded to the base of each mounting plate. A mechanic advised me that the ‘simple bolt on installation’ described by the seller would take approximately two hours fitting time per side. I asked the company to provide instructions. Amazingly the instructions they gave me were a copy of the instructions I had found on the net.
The company refused to accept that their listing was innaccurate and would not refund postage charges.
EBay declined to become involved?
So fellow enthusiates please beware. If you want a Style Bar, ignore 2Fast2Cool2.
