Sunstream boat lift questions

Does anyone have a Sunstream lift? Specifically a VLift? I ended up getting a used VLift. It should be here today or tomorrow at the latest. I've been looking around online and I've seen people mention a couple of options I might want to look into.

The first is a tournament boat kit (vla-tbk1). From what I can tell, it just raises the outer bunks 2". They want $399 for the kit. I can't believe it would be that hard to make. I was hoping someone here has one or has seen one and could either take a pic or describe it.

The second is the motor stop kit(vla-ms1). They want $299. Once again, I'm sure I can make it. I just don't want to reinvent the wheel. Anyone with pics or can help in any way?

Thanks, Joe

I got the lift today and got it in the water. I'll figure out how to adjust the bunks this weekend.

I am interest to know how you like it. Any issues?

I got it dialed in this weekend. Turns out I don't need the tournament kit for the bunks or the motor stop.

I absolutely love it so far. It's super easy to use, and I love having the boat on the water and ready to go.

Here's a pic from before we got it sitting just right. I've since adjusted the bunks to allow the boat to get all the way on. It sits pretty level now. This is the only pic I have though.
