Think Airslot has an 86 or 87.

[Airslot]

Why yes, mine is an 87' with the narrow azz gunnels.

Another way to ''clean up" excess silicone is don't clean it up at all...wait for it to cure and slice away w/ a razor...less of a mess... ;) :D ...

Let's see some pics of those new boxes goin' in... ;D ...

looks identical to my 86. where are the rod boxes from? didya hafta cut? how much? (money)

[Airslot]

I had to do some very minor trimming and the cost was about $180 for the pair from FPmarine about two year ago. I'll see if I can find the link.

i have the fp marine sight but the ones on his sight recommended for the v20 are not square (rectangular). they look like i need to do alot of cutting.
