    Good luck buying parts from other countries and getting them thru customs. I’ve had nothing but issues lately. Most recent is a set of pedals and shift gate from Hill Engineering.
    No luck with US customs. Good luck to you guys, it has become very difficult.

    Soon the navy will be blowing up fast boats full of car parts heading down the Saint Lawrence river.

    “Crazier” is one word.

    I haven't had any trouble yet. I recently ordered the pedal set and skid plates from Hill Engineering (UK). I was also able to get a hard top last month from a shop in Hong Kong. Things are changing daily though, so who knows.

    The parts have been stuck in customs for weeks. First they needed paperwork on the materials (provided by Hill) that was weeks ago. Now customs is confused about the pricing. Today I got an email stating the parts were being sent back because of some issue with the declared value or something. I also had a hell of a time getting my seats out of customs, not to mention the huge bill that fed ex sent me for the tariff price of the day.

    Hill pedals? I might be interested. What shape is your dead pedal?

    I honestly don’t know what brand pedals they are. Got a pic of HE? They don’t look too different from stock. Hard to describe to shape of dead pedal. I’d have to snap a pic. All I know is dead pedals have been discontinued buy suppliers for quite some time now.

    There are two shapes for 348 cars. I’ll buy yours if it’s the right one.
