TDS - Top Down Solutions

Recently picked-up some sub frame connectors and a wonderbar.

Order was quickly filled and shipped. Received the parts in Canada within a week.
I chose their parts based on the numerous good reviews here with hardly anything negative to be found.

Parts look well made and finished, 1 more happy TDS customer

Thanks Lon,

Zak.V

Not all makes and models have retailers like Lon as part of their hobby. We're lucky to have his support.

Re: TDS - Top Down Solutions

Did you have them sent to Ogdensburg and pick them up or did you have them sent right up here?
TDS is a 5 star company to deal with, Lon is excellent to deal with.

I had them send direct, was a bit extra but saved me the hassle of losing a day to fetch it

I'm lucky enough to live within arms reach of him. Was able to get my stuff same day, saved everyone some time and money, and got some great advice for realigning my doors.

Re: TDS - Top Down Solutions

I've ordered a few things from them and being in Ontario as well, made me a bit Leary on shipping. I got my orders within a week, great support and quality!

Re: TDS - Top Down Solutions

I was referred to Lon by a member and I must say that his parts are spot on. Being a new thirdgen vert owner
his knowledge can't be surpassed. He is a great contact to have in my opinion.
