Good looking sink
Review by Desert girl
Shipped on time, however it came damaged. The right side rim was bent down, so we had to bend it back. Made it a look a little imperfect, but it still looks great. This is not your typical drop in with channels on the underside to keep in place. This is a more modern sink. There was no instructions on how to install, so we did some research. We found a similar sink that was supposed to sit flat on the counter and they suggested to simply caulk with silicone and press it on to basically glue it to the countertop. So that's what we did, but since it was a large sink, we placed weights in the sink during the cure time to be sure it was in place. All in all, great sink. *I tried attaching a picture, but it wouldn't let me.

Good tailgate
Review by Tom
I installed this in about a half an hour and did need some help installing the screws on the bottom of the side plates. I was too stubborn to remove the tailgate and do it that way. READ the whole set of instructions first. Twice. The instructions mention installing the screws with the tailgate removed but that shows up at the end. The silver screws that hold the side plates could be just a few millimeters longer to fit the bottom better. The bolts that hold the cables on to the sides are metric so you'll need a 13 mm wrench or socket for those. I gave 4 stars for quality because the tubes on the bottom of the gate were burred and just a bit too wide for the opening but did pry into fit. Also, because of the screws were too short. $300 seems a little high but is in-line with others for the quality.

Stromberg Carlson Louvered 5th Wheel Tailgate
Review by Boogiegd
This Stromberg Carlson tailgate is a great product, works, fits, and looks good. Dyers is a wonderful company to do business with, ordered at 4:45 pm received tailgate the next morning at 9:10 am. Instructions could of been a little easier to understand, but they worked...

Vast improvement over the previous style Stromberg-Carlson tailgate
Review by PennaHunter
I purchased the previous style Stromberg Carlson 5th wheel tailgate for my 2003 F-250.. It (the tailgate, not the truck) was cheaply made. The plastic locking tabs broke. I purchased replacements, which were a little better. Eventually, they disengaged and the tailgate dragged for a mile on a dirt road before I realized it was not a branch making the noise.

Waiting for a break in the Pennsylvania snows, I finally installed the new model S-C tailgate. Everything has been improved in the design. It had good hardware on the latches and the keyed lock is also a nice feature (too often, a newer model of a product is built to a lower standard). Having suffered with the 2003 version, it's great to see that the company has really made this the 'new and improved version'. Thanks, S-C

Product was shipped quickly and was about 1/2 hr to install. Quality for the price can't be beat and non rusting.
Possibly could contain a set of install directions for those less mechanical although install was not difficult.
