my inserts look too big. can anyone show me a pic so i can see how they are supposed to fit in the pocket?
it looks like they should go down into the recessed part of the interior door skin?
thanks

If your taking about the insert that the door handle hoes in you have to trim them a bit. Due you have plastic of fiberglass cards? post pics of what your talking exactly and I will post it.

I covered mine with CF vinyl. I also cut holes in the door panel behind where to alum goes to help with the door handle hookup. The covers hid that and allow you to service the door mechanism in case of a failure.

I didn't get this piece, Joe told me it was only included with the first few kits.

I didn't get this piece, Joe told me it was only included with the first few kits.I received the aluminum handle as well as the thin aluminum plate with my chassis #151.
Mine also seems to need trimming. Seems odd when most (all?) of this car was computer designed and the panels are CNC cut.
