HAhaha! I know it sucks waiting like this. But you really are gonna drive your self crazy like this. But I know that I couldn't stop thinking about mine till I got them. Then I cursed them for a while when I was doing the internal wiring. :-) That was a JOB!!!

Chop On,
Robert

Billy lives a couple miles from my house. We ride when we get time, and that's almost never! haha.
You guys won't be disappointed.
Great guy who has always had the talent. I've known Billy since we were in high school.
He is a ball of fire!
Billy has made a living as a telephone lineman, but since his business has taken off, he has quit his job to devote all of his time to BR Customs.
I can't wait to see what he's going to be offering now that he has the time to develop new things.
Just be patient, I guarantee you his wait time is as fast as it gets because he is a worker, and fabricates each piece himself by hand.

I used a plug in wire extension kit from ebay. But now I see that BRCustoms has the wiring extension kits on his website.
That was the first internal wiring job I've done. And as long as it took me, I don't think you would want any tips from me! hahaha. I had hell doing mine!! But it's worth it in the long run.

Chop on,
Robert
