I have added both the customized metal plates and the additional "smart" switches in selected areas. The smart switch locations will be in areas that Mr. Epstein utilizes EFTA00849424 and not in areas that are reserved for the staff. As per my earlier discussion some or all of this upgrade may be taxable. We will work it out. Regards, Al Alfred Buonanno Clarity Custom Inc. 1792 West 11th Street Brookl NY 11223 EFTA00849425
