IDIDIT COLUMN

Hey Bjorn, I think Summit Racing Products will have a very good price or Southern Rods in North Carolina. Decided to go with ididit ? Can't go wrong, but expensive. Both of these sources have ads in the mags I sent you. Good Luck.

If you want a column with shifter, I recommend a Flaming River column. It is what I used and as far as I know it the only one that has a lighted gear shift indicator. It also has the option of having the dimmer switch built into the tilt lever. I have had no problems with mine and consider the quality to be excellent!

Because the other fellow was trying to do it on the cheap so I listed the parts that were in the kit and dimensions of the glass. $370 isn't a bad price but add the shipping it gets pretty expensive. Just trying to help and not implying anyone is stupid.

Not a problem my friend, if you can save a buck on one thing your able to spend it some where else I'm planning to do a pickup when I finish my panel and hoping it is going to be some what cheaper to do. There has been a few things that I've purchased for my panel that I have copied or taken patterns from to lessen the impact to my wallet,lol. Have a happy new year.
