Annnd what happens when I drop a bolt into the frame. Yep that's me!! Driver side fine….then the passenger side my fingers cramped and down it went

Daniela Burza says:

hey there. do these handles SMELL? i just got mine and they have such a bad smell…. (sorry about your windshield, but that was classic)

Chris Szumigala says:

Thanks for the very helpful How-To. Happy to say I avoided the top two complications, namely cracking the windshield (I used the short rubber handled Jeep tool kit ratchet) and dropping the bolt behind the plastic housing. I did however succumb to a slightly different problem. Since I didn't have a deep socket I had an extension bar on the ratchet and instead I ended up dropping the socket itself down the into the housing… Took about 20 minutes of extra fishing around, but finally got it out LOL

How's the quality and finish on these grab handles? Are they solid or hollow?

Logic Reigns says:

Chris, firstly anyone and everyone could have made the mistake you made with windshield My guess is half of install videos edit out mistakes like that. so kudos to you for admitting a mistake we all could have made and teaching us all a lesson.
In the end I decide on soft grabs due to all the steel bars blocking some usage of visors.

gerimorell says:

how is the motion of the sun visor after installing these? Do they still have a full range of motion or are they limited by the handles?

marcspaz says:

Those are pretty cool. The fact that he is wearing one of Colion Noir's hats makes it a little cooler. LoL

Robin Barber says:

Will there be a "how to" video on installing a new windshield lol? And I love how the red handles just "pop"! Great contrast!!

Aaron Dubois says:
