If you take closer look at the photo - you will see what im talking about.

oh, that product in the picture looks nice!

Waiting to see option in a finished product... not a fan of screws to mount though..

MmmDieselFumes · 02-06-2013, 06:38 PM

Looks good!

Now when you say both options are going into production (awesome!), did you decide whether you're just gonna offer leather or CF, or both? And any word on price?

Can't wait to buy!

Ahh, right on. Know off-hand what the USB plug in the car supplies (2A maybe)?

Both - I mean 1 & 2 Options. AS for CF - no mass production for sure - way too much hassle to make it look RIGHT and make cost pretty much available... If every single piece will need to be trimmed down / sanded / clear coated - then its just too much hand work...

It will ne in Leather, with red stitching.

Awesome, no problem at all. I preferred the CF, but the leather w/ red stitching is still completely fine by me!

Not off hand, sorry.

idk how i didn't see this thread earlier! but yes yes yes , fuck yes!!!

option one, DO IT.

my only other idea would be to make a little indent in hte center of the armrest, with a little rubber pad. so you have a place to put your phone or something like it, so it doesn't have to be under the arm rest because idk where else you could put it in the car?

kind of like this, so the rest of the armrest is padded but the center has a small indented area? idk if there is enough room on such a small armrest, or if you're have to beef it up, and make it a bit thicker and wider, i know i wouldn't mind if it was a bit bigger. just an idea.

regardless i love it so far and will def buy option 1.

this is a cadillac escalade armrest, i know they are much wider and bigger but this is just a picture to illustrate my point.

Yes, the 2nd one, with leather and red stitching, and hinged on the passenger side. Oh yeah, that's the stuff.
