I just done one myself and it's dead easy although you have to be a brave man to drill a couple of holes in the side of your gun.
The biggest problem is actually finding a specialist company to supply the drill and taps as they are odd sizes and have to be exact sizes "not, close enough" sizes.
To an Engineer like me, it's a simple template on, mark the holes, drill carefully and then tap the thread, fit the bits, fire it up. tada simple.
"BUT" if the thought of drilling holes in your gun fills you with fear then get someone else to do it !
Besides it will cost you as much to buy the drills, tap, tap wrench as it would to get someone to do it.

Planet sell the drill and tap set to fit E-Blade eyes..also..I think you will find, that if the E-Blade was purchased second hand, from a semi expert, that it becomes that much easier to fit, being as the lug etc has been allready set to perfection, blah,blah....blah.;)

Does that mean i should have read the manual first before i reset everything ?

"you can pay £25 from planet for the drills if your on the rich list or pay £12.50 from someone like Cromwells (nationwide company)" !
