Tilt hood kit

I've seen the one from CCP and others, just came across another one on ebay. Has anyone tried or has heard anything about the kit from Gearhead Enterprises, it's listed for $159. L8R ZFLASH

Hadn't heard of it, but did search the company and reviews didn't look good. People said things like "everything is cheaply made and don't seem very safe" or "their parts don't even work right and they wouldn't refund anything" just thought that you might want to know this before you bought it.

Glad I could help. I usually always try to find out about a product or company before I buy. It's helped me not make mistakes or a bad purchase, and saved me money. I would suggest this to y

Hey Derrick,
We bought a cheap knock off steering column from Gearhead -
ehhhh not so much fun. It was pretty cheap - you know when they spray chrome paint over plastic to make you think it's metal. We couldn't get the column to work with all the cheap plastic parts inside the column -
I'd give them a thumbs down.
