Re: Billet Radio Plate for cut dash...opinions?
Ok, so I added up the cost and if I get at least 25 orders I can sell them for the following:
-Polished, ready to install- $67 -Sanded and prepped for paint and/or polishing - $53 (I highly recommend using a buffing wheel instead of a dremel or drill to polish it. If you don't have the material to polish aluminum, expect to spend ~$20 in buffing wheels, compound, cleaner, etc) This cost includes the development costs I have spent and still spending (including the Vendor fee for this site). I will also include the hardware to install it and a template to drill the mounting holes with. Shipping will be $5 shipped to your door within the 48 states. I won't sell them completely raw because it's too easy to sand away the curvature and radius with the coarse grit paper needed to remove the tooling marks. I will start a list and when I have at least 25 orders I will start the ball rolling. It will take a couple weeks to get them completed after I place the order.

Forgot to mention Paypal...since I'm only making a small amount of money for my time on these, please add $2 to the cost for each plate ordered if paying with Paypal to cover half of the paypal fees. I think paying half the fees is fair. If you are buying more than one, shipping is $5 for the first and $2 for each additional one.

"Receive payments funded by Credit Card, Debit Card or Buyer Credit 4.9% + $0.30 USD " So an $82 order is actually $4.31, so I'm asking less than half

Ya, my transfer rate is 2.9% from credit cards or from paypal members.... Weird.. I have had this account since they started... Uberninja member status. ahaha. Good work on those bezels man.. I think you should try and make more then 25 to cut that initial cost... I was thinking about picking one up.. $77 was just a bit steep... How much is the cost if you make 50... |

Re: Billet Radio Plate for cut dash...opinions?
Count me in. That is an awesome piece of bling to clean up a slice/dice dash. Just say when and I'll ante up.

Boy, I would love to see some pics before I commit to one. I'm feeling pretty good about this though.

Re: Billet Radio Plate for cut dash...opinions?
Slightly off topic here but I am going to put a Sony X-Plode stereo in my truck and am wondering will I have to cut the dash to do it. If I need to cut the dash then I'd be intersted in one of these plates too.

Re: Billet Radio Plate for cut dash...opinions?
Here are some pics of the radio plate in the heater control location. It fits so well that if I didn't know better I would say it was designed for that location
 The bottom is flush with the bottom of the dash....

Re: Billet Radio Plate for cut dash...opinions?
Here are some pics in the stock stereo location. It looks a little odd since my dash isn't cut, but you get the idea on how well it fits the location and fully covers the stock knob holes. Also one with my cheezy photoshop using paint...
