We will be bringing a square shaped box for the engine cover to hold your drinks, keys, maps, etc.
We want to bring a few covered in vinyl or some similar material as they are all bare now. Was shocked at the price given by the first upholstery shop I visited.

I am hoping for a price point of $45 bare and about $95 covered. That is a lot to me, but getting a cabinet maker to produce these and having them covered, ready to use turns out to be way more than I had thought even though they are made from furniture grade plywood and very well made.
Their advantage is small size, easily moved, convenient and provide an out-of-sight place for valuables or your hand gun. We are providing one shallow and one deep cup holder in the top.

I would appreciate your comments on the price points and your suggestions. I know, everyone wants pictures. I will try to put some on the GMC photo site, if I can figure out how to do that.
Only ten of these have been made and we'll see how that goes. I will see another 6 or 7 upholsterers today. I thought black, brown and beige would be usable colors-while offering some bare so the buyer can stain or have covered in his/her preferred color.
Also, bringing a few black powder coated range tops. Look forward to your response.

Not clear on the basics.

Where would you be 'bringing' them to?



Thanks!

You might want to consider having some of the colors to match those of Honda seats since many GMC'ers use them.

Michael,

Here's how to sign up for the Photo Site and post pictures:

To upload pictures on the GMC Photo Site you will have to register first.

Click here: http://www.gmcmhphotos.com/photos/register.php

When you fill in your Username keep in mind that if you choose something unique and not your name people will have difficulty
finding photos you upload.

When I first registered I used relleumt which is my name backwards, sort of. I got so frustrated trying to find pictures other
GMCer's had posted I decided to change it to Mueller R.

I do now worry about Interpol finding me so I am careful what photos I post! ;-)

Once you're registered you can click on the link below and follow J Harpers step by step procedure which will walk you through how
to upload photos:

Regards,
Rob M.
