Thanks for the PM. I didn't see anything about the door panels though. Are they still included in the offer?

I'd like to get a carpet set that matches my car's original tan color. Is the German material the only one that comes in tan?
Thanks, Brett |

Thanks, Brett We got the Pearl on and then we've got the Germans Square we've either one of those is going to be fairly close or should be. If you want to specify a carpet we can always do one up for you takes a little over two yards to be able to do a complete carpet kit. So just let me know what you need and I'll be happy to do it for material you provide or we get for you. The only thing that concerns me is I need to make sure that you can confirm that the material matches. , thanks Mark |

I'm in for a door set ('74 LE) and speaker pod set. I'd love to get rid of the speakers in the doors that were installed with no backing plate.

truth be told you gave us crap acrylic on those tops . you formed them with a heat gun or a heat lamp or something (cheap) . and didn't even get them straight they was wavy as hell... we should have rejected 100% of them ... not a single one was formed correctly . we can make a perfect one , but you did not want to pay for it . you trying to make as much profit as possible is what killed that project . and if you say our tooling was bad , your wrong . our tooling was perfect after they have been sitting around for five years fiberglass molds shrink . you need to replace molds eventually . and btw your the one who came on talking bad about me and attempting to completely undercut me . We (www.914ap.com) hired you to be a buffer for some real problems I was having . we opened our large customer data base to you and even gave you a product to manufacture your self... rubber products . we are the ones who took thousands of requests to build rubber parts . and when you came along asking me for advice on what you could do to make some money . I told you don't build other peoples parts make rubber parts.. I get a lot of requests for it . I wont take credit for how well you have done , but you wouldn't be here if it wasn't for me ... I coulda told you to sell cat turds and you would have done it mark . I made the mistake of trusting you .... I can post other builders that have similar issues with you ... how about you post a pic of you actually making a part ? or working on your car ?I have hundreds of pics of me building parts and turning a wrench . my sons just told me that this is a waste of my time . and to stop this interaction with you . smart kids . they are actually the ones who told me to sever ties with you . you take care . What a shame. James, way back, you made some very nice innovative 914 product. I know, I bought a good deal of it. Your quality control was atrocious and you pretty much quit communicating as soon as a customer complained, but no one else was making it and with a little work, a guy could make your product work. In fact the only thing I've ever given up on was a really terrible carpet kit. I bought one of those sub boxes from you way back. You may not recall, but I emailed about once a month for a year before you responded. It was great once I got it, I had to "work" it a bit, but now it's good. You're a doer without a doubt James but the business side? Not so much. You also haven't come up with anything new in like - forever... In two days I've been a member here for 12 years. So, I've bought from both of you. When you started trashing Mark on a thread a couple years back I tried to get you to see how bad an idea that was. Mark tried to help YOU by stocking your product. YOU were the one who needed the help because people would order what you couldn't deliver until you got around to it. I'm sure he did it because he was better at the business side of it and you did have some innovative product. I suggested before that it would be a bad idea for you to try and trash Mark as he has built a reputation that is very solid while you built a different reputation. I suspect a divorce is a good idea. You should really just leave this alone because I'm not the only one who remembers doing business directly with you. You should leave this public spectacle alone... |

If your looking to do these in the near future bump the thread and I'll forward codes Also the door panels (smooth that are RS style are included) Who's up for a new interior? Sent you a message.

Thanks guys,
I'll forward the PMs to all shortly It was a busy day. I'll get better carpet pictures up tomorrow. But here's the progress we made today on these parts. 1st the AP consul for gages, and the wiring harness (which will be forwarded with instructions) Still have some more metal to cut and paint for the consul tomorrow. Be we should be assembling tomorrow. I have all 3 of us working on these so we are making very good progress and the preliminary test fits looked good. If anything maybe a little tweaking, but not that hard to make. Attached thumbnail(s) Attached image(s) |

Got the box wood blocked out. Decided to go with a thin birch instead of particle board (like OEM). These just need to transfer a few cuts over and we can start assembly tomorrow. The foam has been cut for the top, and sleeve with pocket (unlike brand X) has been sewn in (like OEM). SHould have the 1st one done tomorrow also.

Since I jokingly busted your chops earlier in this thread, I just wanted to give you kudos for your products. Just opened my first order from you (seat covers and speaker pods) and both look fantastic. I guess now if the seats don't come out looking great, I can't blame the material (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Seriously though, I am really looking forward to seeing these inside the car, and at last have my interior FINALLY looking presentable.
