I ordered on a Monday and the side plate was here by Tuesday evening, not even sure how they got it out the door so quickly! Excellent company to do business with. The cover plate arrived exactly as described/pictured and it fit perfectly. It was a 'real' Minn Kota product and not some knock off junk from wherever the junk comes from. Looking forward to needing more items, can't wait to order from here again. Thank you!
