Default My own Waterfest.....

felt like singing "Rain drops keep falling on my head....doo do doo do doo" after going through the carwash today. Was all excited about my Mods, decided to get the dust off the car after pushing it through as many on and off ramps and regular corners and ....anyway, you get the pics...the H-sports are great. Anyway, had water dripping from the trim that holds my sun roof control and vanity lights...specifically dripping from the drivers side ... .also noticed a streak from the top of my windshield upper left corner. I guess high pressure wash pushed through some water. What are your recommendations for beading along the windshield top seam/rubber molding....any silicone caulk that is clear and compatible to rubber/metal? or is there a specific product I need to look into? I'm thinking I also have a pin hole somewhere along the front molding of the sunroof..... thx!

Default HIJACK

My H-sports just arrived. You were right about FedEX ground tracking being poor.

Looking forward to some good weather this weekend to put them on!

Default nice!

hope it's cooler for you! I opted for water during installation, beer after....just cause of the evident dehydration, I didn't need to have to think things through 12 times instead of the 3-4!!!! good luck, the most challenging part about it is all of the accelerated yoga positions I had to get my 6'2" bulky frame into to get it done! (I think I'm now unofficially certified to instruct btw!) good luck.

Southboro, when did you order your set? I ordered mine on 6/30 and still pining away. I'm sure they'll arrive just as we hit 110.

Default Yep, 2001 A6 Sedan

They haven't even processed my card, so who knows when it will ship. Everytime I make a turn I get depressed.

Default I'd give 'em a call. Tell them you know from a forum that people ordering after you have...

...ALREADY gotten theirs. Good luck.

Default heres what they told me...

ZI ordered mine on the 30th and noting, this is the reply they gave me:
Chris,
I show that we have not yet received these bars in for your order yet. We
have had a few trickle in from H-Sport every few days, however there are
still several others waiting as well on the backorder list.

We will let you know once these are back in and ready to ship to you.

Well, if it's any consolation, it's TOO hot to do the install anyway.
