We will be making a rear trunk lock repair kit that replaces the rubber base, the outter bezel and the lock button. It will allow you to use your lock (no re keying) to make the one you have look brand new.
Who's in? |

Materialwise yes stainless is of course more expensive than mild steel.
Machining wise the cost should be the same if you use a good machinist, they're both "soft" materials. Where they differ is the finish, the stainless can be just polished to an ok surface or a brushed satin look where the mild steel needs to be chromed. The chroming process should be as expensive as polishing the stainless if not even more expensive weighing up some of the added stainless material cost. This is the sort of stuff I do on a daily basis as my profession, good luck Mark. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |
