Default Ebay Haynes supplier - Louthyz

Anyone used this chap? I have just purchased a pair of Pinto engine mount plates and the upper harness mounts.

Mostly I don't see why people who have decided to go 'Haynes' would get the simpler plates cut - but I didn't feel so bad about leaving it to someone else to worry about threading the harness mount bar and aligning the engine mount holes perfectly... :-D

I have used him for my pedal box so far and will likely get him to do my engine mounts.

I'm building an MX5 based roadster and he didn't have the design so I sent him the CAD files and he did them custom for me with really quick turnaround.




Cheers

If that was powder coated it would just flake off. Its probably done properly and blasted first to key it up hence the cost. That or its a bodge and a rip off
