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

Just thought I should respond to this comment. The guy in the thread making these plates, Mekdad, is the guy I had machine all my radio plates. I work with a lot of machinists and could have had these parts made locally but I was trying to support people in our truck community.

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...

*Shane* · 05-15-2009, 10:14 AM

mahanian, i will take one if you have any left. I will be sending you a PM you as well.

thanks.

mahanian · 05-27-2009, 12:02 PM

I still have a few bezels left if anyone is interested

The cost is $95 for a fully polished bezel shipped priority mail to you door. If you receive the bezel and aren't 100% satisfied with the quality of the part in any way you can ship it back and I'll gladly give you a full refund!

C-10 Addict · 02-20-2010, 11:19 PM

Are you still making these or did you get tired of all the bs and stop??interested in one

roughedup72 · 02-21-2010, 11:04 PM
