So Im just waiting Sawa. I wish you all the best. Tuombe kabisa. That's good progress @Prime. Yottu'll help me get the windows when mine arrives end of this month. Sawa Jerry. You may be lucky to get yours registered. Hebu liaise with your sacco guys. The guy who got me the windows is called jomo on 0725271529. Call him before the car arrives. tell him to reserve for you. Mwambie ni yule kijana wa imani shuttle. Someone had promised me that they would get last week at a much cheaper price. I will enquire for you and revert hapa in the course of the week. @Prime. Thanks. Where is the difficulty (1) registering as a matatu or (2) getting a TLB or both? The opposite of courage is not cowardice, it's conformity.

@Prime. Good thinking. I was actually pondering over a different kind of service with a Merc or a VW Crafter, i.e Hearse biz. The opposite of courage is not cowardice, it's conformity.

In the meantime Jerry, mats are still being registered for TLB. Though its taking time for their issuance. i pray that things work out well for you bro. In the event that Kipkorir does not get to see this thread then jerry Just take a walk huko ngara and tafuta the kamau guy. Those guys generally know each other. Tafuta Kamau wa dirisha au kamau wa kioo.
