I like it a lot. I've got a mat over my stainless steel top on my toolbox now. It's just too delicate and I'm too crazy about my tools. That looks like a really good option.

Nice cart. My dealer has one in candy apple red with black trim. Looks amazing. I'm probably going to get it in green but he told me to wait until they have a special on carts

Does that top slid apart in the middle? I though they sold one where it slid back or flipped up. A middle split in orange is very tempting.. Great looking box.

EDIT oops sorry just saw your other post about it. For some reason I'm not finding that cart on their website?

Yes, it has a spilt sliding top. I think they only list the version with the stainless steel spilt top on the new website. Which I don't like at all.

New orange today. Picks and finally my wire strippers. He has the bogo hammer and pry bars on the truck in orange right now. It took lots of will power to walk off without them.

My newest orange addition - ok, so not BRAND new, but new to me :)

I've got a PH4 on the way too (older, black hard handle, and now I want a matching orange handle to the above one for it. If this turns into a new OCD orange obsession, I'm blaming you guys.... :p

Swapped out the old black handle from the PH4

Ok, so it's got the wrong part number on, but it matches the PH3 now :)

what's the bottom one?

The bottom one is a NOS USA made chisel/punch holder made by KD. Got it off eBay for $10.95 shipped. In the pic on eBay it looked red, like 99% of the KD made ones are. Needless to say I was happy as a clam finding out it was orange when I opened the box.

keeping this thread going:

despite how red they may look in the photo - the screwdrivers & mini sets are indeed Snap-on orange instinct handles. there seems to be a QC issue in terms of the coloring. hopefully they can work it out.

Love that ^ Nice shadowing!

And stupidly jealous of the two trim tools bottom right - I have both those in black, and I'd love to have them in orange!

for me it was absolutely crucial that I have these tools in orange. after losing 3 of them due to either myself or others leaving them in cars during disassembly, I wanted to make sure they were as visible as possible so i dont lose em again!

the orange handled trim tools should be available currently from your dealer. they were in their monthly catalog not too long ago (a few months).

Part numbers for reference are:

A161B and A177A

Oh you ****! I have the 177 in black, and I had a 161 in black, but lost it a while back - I'd love to have them both in orange!!!

Yea me too. They blend into dark interiors and trunks. I have at least bought and lost 3 of each over the years. Much easier to see in orange.
