If you mean these -
http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...p;hl=side+shift

They will be ready sometime this next week. I let my brother take over handling these as they are actually much easier.

We are focusing on getting more that one dash a day out of the tooling. The de-molding is a real pain right now, but they are rolling.

Cant wait to see these! My wife just asked about the dash. I figured that she was asking because of the $$ and I did not have it yet. But she said she was actually would be excited to see the car without a cracked dash because she knew that would make me happy.

I should have told her a 6 would make me happier, but I guess I am pretty lucky that she sees that way and better not push my luck.

yes, you can pay $400 which is still a $150 discount from the retail price that it will go to.

Massive undertaking. Don't rush it. The end result will be worth the wait.

Yeppers. I can just imagine the stage they're at currently. "What the Hell. How did that happen?" / "I dunno, the first one didn't do that." / "The first one is 1/4" short". (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif)

Actually its the metal internals we made like factory, but they are making it hard to demold. We have made some modifications to it to help and have cut the demold time from 6 hours to about 1. Still need to make a tweek or two but these are not just popping out of the mold. This is the only thing that is slowing up production. We will be starting to crank these out but if we fine tune the process before mass production

WOW! Perfect timing for me, Mark. I wanted this to happen while I'm installing the AC and it looks as if it will. Hot Damn, I'm stoked. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cheer.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)

Yes I posted once we pulled the 1st plug and had anticipated that since we had duplicated the factory metal it would be just popping them out as the plug was out on less than 60 seconds. I knew the metal would add a little time to it. but it was just too rigid so we redesigned and made metal. That's what we are pulling now and it's finally getting to something that resembles production we need to be able to pull 3 a day minimum as there are 60 of you that I need to fill orders for. I saw this with the bumper tops when we started them and and have improved the process the point we can get up to 4 a day with them. They originally were 2-3 a week.
