    It's rude maybe, but its true and I'm not going to lie to the world to save some grown ass man's feelings. People have been asking for this for a long time, they could have made one, I've emailed multiple times trying to get them too. They don't even respond and have no interest. So I don't care if its rude, they make a good but ugly product and I am happy as can be that someone came along and did this.

    Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I laughed and I have the other kit. No feelings hurt here, I just think maybe that was mentioned since this forum is extremely positive. You ever heard of my350z's reputation back in the day? The attitude was terrible over there. Not sure if they're warranted but just my 2 cents. Also, the zx6r forum has that reputation currently (hence why there's 4 active posters there). Forums all over are dying from outside influence via scammers, FB classifieds and other general internet bullshittery. I mean no disrespect to any poster in this thread at all though. Just saying it how I see it from the 5-6 forums I'm currently apart of.

    I prefer the Meso style. Don’t need fake rivets that trap more dirt.

    I do like the AJT snap-in shift gate…seems easy to install.

    Meso doesn’t seem to have any install info on their website.

    So between the two, it gets it done.

    Of course, your emails should determine what every company makes.


    Being rude for the sake of being rude is dumb.
    At least try to be clever.

    Did you know…
    The word "rooster" was coined so that genteel people could avoid saying the word "cock".

    Don’t be a rooster.






    P.S. You might not like my advice but at least I don't care.

    I ordered the kit and inquired about an install video. This was the response below. Think I'm sticking with AJT vent rings as I don't want to take apart the dash since MESO appears that way.
    "Hi,
    We're putting the final touches on the video and will have it on the website asap.
    Austin S,
    MESO Customs"

    It has screw homes so I’m gonna assume it’s not snap in. I should have mine Friday and I’ll likely install the blackout kit when I get off work. The vent rings and 4x4 will be when I figure out what I want to do with the rest of the stuff.

    No the new black one. Like if someone buys the whole kit but ONLY wants the cupholder trim or something.

    Nice find. Ordered one and it arrived today. Unfortunately it doesn't fit my TRD Pro since there isn't a cut out for the seat heater switches. I'd be more likely to really mess it up trying to mod it to fit the switches so I've already started the Amazon return process. Too bad, it was just what I was looking for.

    If Meso had these sooner, I would have went with Meso. Im pleased with the blackout kit I bought from the "other guy" but I will say every time I contacted the "other guy" he always seemed like a douche.

    Received mine today, haven’t installed just yet but it’s going to require the same drill technique from the “other guys” video. It’s got the tabs in the same place as the original so it will click in once the old one is drilled out.

    Just installed the MESO kit. I too have waited a long time as I wasn’t fond of the bolts in the “other” kit. 2F77B225-9C96-44E3-8B5F-12D05D96C72D.jpg
