They don't weigh anything...... I was holding plastic ones in my hands comparing... Just letting consumers know what's available..

The ON / OFF switch is also backwards. ON always towards the front of the buggy or the first time you hit something or jump short the switch will shut itself off.

Great info there!!!

Love the radio tray, but I also like the Push open design on the carb, Instead of it pulling it open.

That could also be the problem. Takes more force to Push open than Pull Open.
