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...

Mikey914

Dec 29 2016, 11:49 PM

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.

Mikey914

Dec 29 2016, 11:53 PM

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

Seriously though, I am really looking forward to seeing these inside the car, and at last have my interior FINALLY looking presentable.

Just changed the prices directly on the website. the sewn ones are a little more, but still very reasonably priced.

Mikey914

Dec 30 2016, 10:39 AM

PM sent. The door panels are simply changed to the actual price right now. I did send the list of codes to you in a PM.

I have noticed that the links moved as I didn't base them off the search feature (another great Godaddy function is that it scrambles the links every time you publish)
SO here are all teh links that will not move

One of the problems I have with Godaddy is that once I publish something it actually changes the links unless that are based on the search function. All the discount codes still work.
So for the perlon items use this link (It will be a group)

I found the door panels on the website, but when I try to add them to my shopping cart I get "Unable to find Specified Product in Catalog." I've never participated in a GB before, so maybe I'm missing something.

Mark,

is the.vinyl the same that was used on the plaid seat kits?

if not could you do a center cushin box, door panels w/ window crank opening only, and a backpad all in the glossy black?

Mikey914

Dec 31 2016, 12:09 AM

Same glossy black for now. I did get word the manufacturer of this vinyl is making a change in backing that makes it stretchier, but is a shade more matte. Just a little, but for now I have about 40 yards so no problem.

What is the difference between the Perlon and Domestic carpets? Is one deeper than the other? Is one more durable than the other?

Mikey914

Jan 2 2017, 10:16 PM

To answer your question The Perlon is more of a "heavy felt" it has no real depth. It is very light, and is appropriate in the earlier cars. The domestic of a good choice for a daily driver, it's a nylon, but has a rubber backing. The black domestic is actually very close the the Black German. The Charcoal is ok in domestic has a loose loop. It can snag on the exposed edges. The Exposed edges are the ones under the carpet thresholds,as well as the edges under the passenger and drivers mats, so this is not a real problem, but I wanted to point it out.

The German is the Best we have and it's not inexpensive.

Mikey914

Jan 3 2017, 05:53 PM

Yep, years of me listing stuff late at night and after a long day and not having the time to go through and straighten it up. I decided to concentrate on actually making the parts. Matt is working on the website and it can't get done fast enough. Unfortunately I'm making parts faster than he can keep up. Right now I need to get back to a few guys on the roofs and came into the shop today and the guys have been very productive so more stuff to post.
The Ebay is listed by Taylor my youngest and we needed to list with free shipping to up the ranking. Matt told him to do so, but didn't have him revise the price. So yes feel free to buy either venue. The new system will manage both and make inventory much nicer.

The items you mentioned are not yet up on the 914rubber site.
