Well that blows. IMHO he could have sold them for twice the price. *shrug*

Maybe there were liability issues at play or something...

I disagree....I would like an auto up circuit but $50 for that minor convience is too much in my opinion. I have no use for the other functions only auto up and that is worth about $25 to me

At least I won't be bidding against you. As I said, I already have one and $50 was way worth it.

Hmmm...that sounds awfully close to the price of the new Bugatti 16.4.
I'll bet it already has auto up windows

Ok, this can go on for a while. How about I send you the picture of a $1,252,358.50 and you send me a picture of your circuit and we will call it even?

Sooooo, maybe one of our esteemed vendors would pick-up the selling part and you could just do mfg'ing/wholesaling? Then maybe all us slackers that put off buying one could maybe still have our "fogs on" options? Maybe. Kinda. Sorta. :smile:

That is what I am hoping to be able to arrange ...
The issue is that till now, I have done part of the manufacture myself; I need to get the circuit completely built by a contract manufacturer - including the Humiseal spray coating - then it would just be a matter of an aftermarket company ordering a batch & selling them.

No doubt I would still get a few "help" emails, but out of the 1000 I sold only two folks gave me significant trouble - those 12 pages of color instructions must have helped
