Exclamation

There must be a parts crisis here in the US. First it takes forever and lots of hunting down just to find the black cast Mopar Magnum valve covers, and now I can't even find the black t-handle (or winged) hold downs for the covers. What gives???

I've tried just about everywhere online, be lied to by CarParts.com (said was in stock via phone call, and now is out of stock on order tracking), tried local area for 60 miles out with no luck.

There's some sort of conspiracy against me to get these vc's installed on this ram!!!! The vc's will arrive tomorrow via UPS and can't even put them on the way I'd like to and be done with it.

So now, if anyone can find me 4 sets of 4 each black 3 1/2 inch 1/4-20 hold downs then let me know!!!!! I'd even take the 4 inch ones, but think the 5 1/4 inch ones would be way too tall.

Carparts was 7.99 for a pack of four, CSK is $16.99, Summit is around 9.99, but no one can get em NOW!!!

I eagerly await a reply!!

Question

Starbandit,

What exactly were you looking for? What is black t-handle (or winged) hold downs? Are these something that is needed or these something to add to the looks?

I got my VC from carpartsonsale.com yesterday. Nice covers!
