I like mine, but some guys have had problems. But their customer service is pretty good if you do have a problem. There are several different kinds out. Just pick out which one you like the best. I don't like the qtec switch at all. Too big.

These are my DMH Performance electric cutouts i installed this week. They are very
nice pieces, well made, adjustable bolt holes, easy to wire in, and have a 3 year warranty. On my setup, it's like going from open headers to legal in 4 seconds, no leaks or rattles so far. It's about the same price as the qtec's, but the quality seems to be better, IMHO. As for customer service from DMH, I talked with them in detail about how i wanted to wire them to a "stock" looking switch from GM. "No problem" was the answer, and they wired up a " lock" switch for me before they shipped the cutouts to me. Hope this helps.
