So is there only a question on clearance if using the Eddie handles? I have completely stock setup ('09 292) and think this could be perfect first bling. I will stop and take measurements to confirm no differences just to make sure.
Don't count me in yet but consider me serious.
None the less, kudos for all the effort you have put in for this!!

See the pic in post #6 of this thread showing my 2006 292. There is more space above the handle on this year 292 compared to the Dave's 353. I ordered the new billet steps from Dave and confirmed they are the same size as my stock plastic ones. Everything will fit fine. If needed I can move the handle up slightly.

OK, We have 7 orders! I will keep you posted on the progress, and when I receive payments.
I installed my set last night and have included the handle fix pictures. I machined the trim plate. It looks GREAT and like is is supposed to be cut at the bottom when installed. Simple fix, and better the a gap at the back.
The cup holder insertion is a tight fit and the little cushions are installed to prevent the rattle. I'm going to try them out this weekend polished and see what happens on the heat issue and see if anything else need changes.
Enjoy the Holiday weekend!

FYI - You can buy the Grap Handles without the plates.
Dave, the holders look great, you did a great job!

So the boat was in the sun all weekend and the plates didn't really get warm!! The air temp was around 70, but the sun was bright all day! They stay polished...for right now.
****LAST CALL FOR THE FIRST ORDER****
Thursday is the last day I will accept orders for this step plate on the first run. You need to let me know quick!

Hey Dave,
hope you had a great weekend, weather in NJ was great, saw the guy on powdercoating and he wants to see the steps before he will give me a price, so when I receive them I will let everyone know how I make out. your back plate cuts look great, I wonder if I can do the same to mine as they are blue, do you know ?? keep in touch.... Thanks, John
