If Ross posted that information on his website, it would be a disincentive for people to buy his kit. But, he could have put the information in the manual he includes with the kit.

My car has been pretty reliable after the first year of wringing out the glitches. But these things start out as prototypes, so you have to expect problems until you get everything sorted out.

Where I am really starting to lose patience is with the cosmetic failures. All the plastic is now brittle. Fold the seat down and a shard of plastic breaks off and goes flying. Replace a dome bulb, and a peg breaks off the assembly. Come out one morning and find the stitching has split on an otherwise perfectly good leather seat. Clear coat peeling off the paint. After 7 years with this car, I am weighing whether to invest in paint when the interior is falling apart. But the car runs great, and most parts have only 40,000 miles.
