That is very kind of you Les - kudos as a result.
I hope RSP feel the same way about two door belts ruined because they wouldn't snap-home on the vinyl side of the door tops - revealed they weren't locked in only when the window was wound up/down and then became all buckled. The clips work a treat on the non-vinyl side but (unfortunately) not so well on the vinyl side).
I've e-mailed RSP via their website and loo forward to a positive response re: warranting the parts and suggesting how better to make them fit/secure.
Cheers, TB



We would most certainly replace the door belts if in fact they are faulty and it is not the vinyl being too thick (which is the problem in most cases) as the clips are from the original GMH supplier or that they were not fitted correctly.

Just to let you know I could not find your email via our feedback system.

This link is how door belts should be fitted.

Mick,

I fitted your rear hatch boards kit and all is good. With regards to the recommended RRS bumpers, my car actually still has the original bumpers as fitted when I got the car and they happen to be the same as you sell for the fuel filler flap (number plate). The final height in my case was perfect!

Hey Mick,

The parts I got off you turned up a couple of weeks ago & I couldn't be more happier with the quality from what I can see. Can't wait to get to that stage of fitting it all to the car!

Cheers,

Jase

Yea, they're a good money gathering department that's for sure! haha... I ended up paying an extra $100-120 I think for GST & customs duties/levies, but never mind - I'm happy   :D

Hi Ponyrana

 

At this stage, we are not doing this part at the moment. Hopefully sometime down the track we will.

Hi Stinga,

 

apologies to you. I have only just seen your post.

 

Some bad news with regards the Hatch Console. I don't think that anyone will ever do these as they are so complicated in the front section of the console.

 

It's a shame as they would be a huge seller.

 

All I can say is keep searching. Your best bet would be to try and and find an old LX Sunbird (sedan or hatch) as these had the same console.

 

cheers

Mick

Mick, is it possible to post a copy (PDF) of your plans for the chipboard rear floor for a hatchback. I realise you have put a lot of work into these parts but like a lot of people I have good hardware but the boards are too far gone to get accurate measurements.
