Well Alan, I think you may take the cake on that one. However I was 
Elmering a local teenager with an HW-7 (I think), only to find that he'd 
installed the entire wiring harness BACKWARDS... heheh!

I'll not mention any names/calls, lest I incur his wrath... he's now a 
STERLING K2 owner now, and did a KILLER job of assembling it, and many 
OTHER kits between the HW-7 and the K2.
