Re: Billet Radio Plate for cut dash...opinions?

This is definately a VENDOR situation.....Why has no one reported it as such?
This is very unfair to all of those who have either paid the vendor subscription or been forced to stop selling. Paying the vendor fee was broght up early in the thread....and what? Forgotten?

He had a vendor account at one time but it has now since expired. It needs to be updated.

I took all the measurements, paid for the CAD time to have it drawn up, bought prototypes from Mekdad to perfect the design, and then ordered them from him, only to have him steal my design and change it slightly to sell it as his own. I've even had people tell me he is selling my design as his own as well. I'm not one to bad mouth anyone on this site, I'll let you make your judgement call...

Re: Billet Radio Plate for cut dash...opinions?

Ok, I've been off the board for awhile now dealing with other things in my life, but I'm back. I have 8 radio bezels left and I will make a list of who has emailed and PM'd me by date and offer them up. If I get enough interest I will have a new batch made up. I've been dealing with the provisional patent on these for awhile now and think I got the bugs worked out. I'll pay update my vendor subscription right now so there are no problems

Did you ever decide to make the 1-piece plate for the heater area? I would be interested in one as well.
