Guys....thanks for the interest....I hope there is no confusion here..... price is 75 ea Grommet.... a (set) would be 150. Just making sure that is clear.

Guys,

Thank you for the feedback and continued interest...

I "may" have found a way to reduce the price of the grommet sets...no promises, however I am working on it.

Please have some patience and I will get back to you.... May take a little time.

I would like to make these a little less painful....

Thanks,

Rob

Hi Martin,

Sorry I don't check the board that often...

No problem happy to send to Austria. (thanks also David!)

Post us a picture of the Austria Mighty Mite, probably the only one! Out of the very few in Europe.

Many more Steyr Puch Pinzgauers and Haflingers in the USA!

Will keep you guys posted on the progress...

Rgds,

Rob

Hi Rob,

Thanks for sending to Europe!

Thanks David for your offer!

Yes, there are very few Mites in Europe, and mine are the only one in Austria. Hope I have time to start the restoration this summer. I’ll restore the M422, the M422A1 is for parts – as it’s difficult to get parts in Europe and not all US-dealers send to Europe.

Best regards
Martin

The A1 on the trailer has M151 wheels. Were they modified to fit?

Hi Bill,

the M151 wheels where put on by the previous owner. They are only for transportation. They don’t fit very well. The original rims came with the Mite.

Guys,

I still have about 20 sets left....these are $70/set not the $150 a set that I had initially thought.

If you want them, get them now.... I will not make them again.

Thanks,

Rob

Hi Guys,

Here's a little update, if you ever wanted these unique to the mighty mite tail light grommets, now is probably the time. When I did them a few years ago I figured it would be a one time deal, so I made a batch and moved on to other projects...the mighty mite parts market is well... pretty small. I has taken 6 years to sell out the small run that was done!

I have been basically out of these for a couple of months, and of course I have recently been asked by a few guys for tail light grommets. Seem to be there are a few nice MM projects going on out there today :D

So, I called the company today that molded these for me years ago, and they still had my tooling and I decided to do another small run. I really don't expect to do this again.

70.00 a set...never seen these offered or surplus.

Thanks,

Rob
