Typical Stillen. Now they have made a grounding kit. Only made with worse wire and they charge another $40 than Courtesy Parts. Typical Stillen.

Stillen at their finest.

I thought this Stillen kit has been out for a while, well before the Courtesy kit. Both are overpriced.

Perhaps it has. I hadn't seen it and hadn't seen it on here. So, I figured it was new. Nonetheless, it is of lesser quality and costs more.

It's amazing how much they charge for this stuff. IIRC my grounding kit was $44 from Southwest Autoworks a while ago. You can make one youself for less, though.

I'll be getting mine from BlehmCo. Stillen is too greedy, most of their prices are WAY too high.
