    You will most likely need the black plastic backing plates they mount to as well, that is what the black speaker mesh is attached to on the OEM plates.

    Demon, i am working on those! Samples should be available shortly.
    Das, I'll have to see about the NB door panels. I have a 99 so those would require quite a bit of modification to work. But the 01+ are easy to do. Maybe ill start on those first.
    Randy: I spoke to Willis, and he's agreed to lend me his set. I should have something up for you guys soon. Yay!!

    I know I'm getting back to this way late. Do you happen to have a more well-lit photo of these prototypes? I'll be retrofitting an NB HVAC head into my NA in the not too distant future, and something like these would be amazing! If the NA pieces are any indication, I think whatever you come up with for the NB unit will be just fine.

    Why are the door panels no longer on your website? There is a picture of them in the slideshow on the home page, but they are not listed anywhere for sale?

    Thats because the ones in the slide show are the version1's. I'll be doing the version2's at the end of the month. the 2's are going to look much better..

    JUX: those will be offered soon. That image is just the prototype shot and dark because i didnt want to show off too much of it until im ready to offer them.

    Just a preview of the material, it will be a distressed style vinyl. it will more closely match the NA's existing pattern. It will also be double stitched, but it will not be the puffy like the ver1's. It will be a flat piece. also the diamonds will be larger. The look that i am going for is like the picture below, with the bigger diamonds.
    If you look at the door and headliner, thats what i am going for. The seats are more like the ver1's. If people want the puffy look, those are going to be hand stitched so it will take some time to get those done. Its an option.

    Re: Hello world!

    Exactly!

    Those HVAC panels...I love two of em. The blossoms and what looks like gears (bottom left). Different is good!
    If someone wants a classy knurled piece anywhere possible, have you given any thought to the dash dimmer wheel? Clearly not as visible as items in the middle, but seems like it could be a candidate.

    Like I said on facebook, looks very nice! Now you have me wondering if there's anything else in or on the dash that might be a candidate for replacement. Hmmm...
