Here are some pics. I'll post a few more also.

Also, I've attached a .zip file with a Powerpoint presentation in it that lays out the install pretty much. Easy as 1-2-3... ;)

More pics... They're basically laid out in reverse order of installation.

When you zoom in, you'll see that the pod is a bit grainy. I've mentioned this several times, that it is due to the rapid prototype process. Rest assured, the production pieces will be smooth as a baby's bottom. ;)

They will be molded 100% black. I painted this unit to match as closely to the stocker as possible. Leaving it all black is definitely easier for me. ;) If we're lucky enough to generate the demand, maybe I can offer it both ways.(headbang)
 
Wow, that looks great! Nice work. Any idea on possible pricing yet? I know it's still a ways away since you're not an AV, but have you tried to figure out what you'll sell them for?

PM sent. ;)

I see you're downriver....whereabouts? I live in Fraser, and work in Allen Park. ;)
 
Calling any available CX-7's and RX-8's in Michigan's "tri-county" area (Oakland, Macomb, Wayne).....

I need to get a good look at these vehicle's vents. I'd like to remove the left hand registers and get some measurements. I'm pretty sure that my Mazda 6 solution will work in both of these other vehicles. I need to get good measurements to confirm.

I'd also like to get a good look at the backside of the center vents (3 vents) housing to scheme a way to make one of my existing products work in those locations as well.

I'd like to take these measurements personally. I need to get my dimensions accurate to within a couple of tenths of a mm, and to get that accurate, I have to do it myself. Not that anyone else isn't capable, it's just that I know exactly where to measure to and from to get the proper dimensions I need.

So, who's up for it?

Thanks again everyone, and we are indeed VERY close to kicking this thing off!! Mid-to-late next week is when I expect to announce the product launch! I have to talk to the admins here also. ;)

A short question please. If we, the customer, wanted to paint the pod. what method and type of paint would adhere and look best. Thanks for all the effort and detail.
