While I have no info on the CanEV S-10 conversion kit... I do have a
lot of experience with Canada EV, and can say that Randy and his team
are excellent.   I spent just shy of $2000 with them buying a
transmission adapter for my Saturn SL, a Xantrex Emeter, an
electro-hydraulic  power steering unit, an IOTA DC/DC, a pot box, and
a ceramic heater for the car.  Randy is always ready to give lots of
insight and tips.

And while his transmission adapter was accidentally machined
backwards... he did give me some $$$ credit for his mistake and was
helpful in resolving the issue.
