Incredible work guys - absolutely top notch, high quality, professional looking work! Hopefully sometime in the near future I'll be able to see it in person.

The first one should be ready to go in about 2 weeks, It may be spoken for already, I am yet to hear back, but other then that we will come up with a waiting list depending on demand (and if it is anything like the pillars) should be 2 to 3 week wait plus some additional fab time. Price is going to be in the $600 range, $700 or more for custom paint and Iphone docking station. (Should have pics of that this weekend). Of coarse there will be a deposit that will be returned when we receive your arm rest panel and upper center. Those who want to keep their stock stuff will have to let us know in advance so we can order them in. Receiving your double din console is all contingent on what you want to have done. Those who are interested can shoot me a pm I can give more details from there, it would be nice to get a group buy together just so we have a rough number in advance who are going to want these.

I forgot to mention, we are also going to run a button deal where we shipp with the buttons and wires allready extend, YOU MUST SHIP your buttons back to us (or no deposit). There will be a full instruction sheet, but I would suggest not using wire nuts and soddering them to the exhisting wires.

It has been made but no one has placed any orders. Jon has one in his car. I'd have one in my car but I'm doing way too much stuff to be messing around with a piece of art like that scratching it all up pulling it out all the time to work on new stuff for the XF. BTW, here is a little glamor shot of what I've got going on right now. Again, sorry it's a crappy iphone picture.

I like them very much too. Now I just need to find teh rest of the switches to round everything out. I will end up needing to widen the dash by the climate controls because on the SLK, it's flat and does not have the indentation as the crossfire does and the temp ***** are wider than will fit. It's gonna be good though because I planned on redoig that entire area anyways to flush it up a bit. Just for kicks, I should see if i can put the SLK cup holders up there. Not that I'd use them often as I'm sure they're pretty cheesy but they'd be handy in there for long road trip when you're floating down the interstate.

Voyager we would be more then happy to do this for you, It is a matter of whether or not we can wreck the lower portion piece for you. Most people this is not an option. It would be a custom job I cant stress enough that it can not be done without ruining that piece completely. Also the front will look like a piece of art the back will look someone hacked something together to attach buttons.

Any one know why the ash tray stays out? I can't seem to get it to stay.
Thanks, Paul

I am very interested in this work and may be interested in purchasing instead of tackling myself. However, I do need the switches relocated to the ashtray area. Can you explain the complications you guys found with this?
