Hi Peter, I bought the kit years ago before it was 'deep space products'. It was cheaper back then, and personally I don't think it's worth anywhere near the $175 usd. The most important kit items are the DVD, better quaility tiny hex screws for the motor cogs, a set of hex/Allen keys that match the LXD75, and the Autostar cable. Most of the other supplied bits and pieces were of terrible "$2 dollar shop" quality! Also the Teflon bearings supplied in the kit are probably only good for the LXD55, ie. the LXD75 has ball bearings.
Hypertuning eliminated some stiffness in my LXD75, which as a mount, is so entry level it's really only good enough for visual anyway. Also, pulling apart the mount gave me an appreciation as to how it works, so I have no worries with tinkering/adjusting the mount and slack as needed.
