Hello all you Righties,
we are getting close, by the end of next week the die for the RHD pad will be made and a week later we hope to cut some material.
But to help planning we need to know how many of you are still interested in buying one. The pads will be distributed by a friend of Andy (Drewtree) in England and by Garry in Australia.
We are not sure yet of the final price but most likely below £125 or AU$170 (VAT included). Shipping these large pads (50" wide) is quite costly!
Here are the names of those who expressed an interest earlier:

Australia:
Hands_aus 1x
RicRose 1x
CraigB 1x
Garry 2x
69 280SL 2x
georgem 1x

UK:
Gnuface 1x
Wolfman 2x
Tosh 1x
Drewtree 2x
Khurram Darugar 2x
Lloyd250 (Malta) 1x
Naj 1x
David Brough 1x
manz376 1x
sully 1x

Who else would want one?

Hi Alfred,
Just want to make sure my order is still on your radar. I am in Australia but need a left hand drive pad.
Dave

Alfred,

Gnuface is UK.

If you want to put it in with the RHD pads bulk shipment to Australia, I can send it out from here to Dave.and save him some shipping.

I see that Benzrestorer is still quoting the non standard material pads as better than original

Got the pattern right, just not the material and too bad about the lack of any correct backing material

Dave,
thanks for reminding me. We'll make sure that one LHD will go to you, somehow. Perhaps Jonny B can take it along on his next business trip, I'll ask him.

hey, don`t forget me - I`m in for one

Garry · « **Reply #6 on:** November 11, 2011, 08:59:19 »

Naj,

There will be the same cuts that we did for the LH Pad and the backing can be cut if you want the VIN cutout. see photo

George, I will be getting the Pads for AUstralia in one shipped box from the US and will then be sending out individually to try to save on shipping costs. You will be on the list.

Also, does this include the footwell bits or are they off the radar pending the use of the material for the firewalls?

Thanks and top work.

And yes, I am one RHD

Garry · « **Reply #8 on:** November 11, 2011, 09:59:45 »

James,

Alfred has sourced more raw material as we work through getting out all the the left and now starting on the right hand firewall pads at this point then see what is available for interior.

Larry & Norma · « **Reply #9 on:** November 11, 2011, 10:34:56 »

Yes I would still like one, please note it is 'Gnuface' not Gunface

Hi Hamid.

Noted, especially as one of your cars may be my future blue Pagoda

DavidBrough · « **Reply #13 on:** November 11, 2011, 13:08:07 »

Could you put me down for 1 x RHD pad to the UK please.

Let me get this straight. I thought all RHD cars have the VIN cutout on the firewall, is that not correct?

My intention was to have the cut out in both parts, waffle-patterned material and felt, to save you some work.

Naj ✝︎ · « **Reply #15 on:** November 11, 2011, 19:57:40 »

Hi, Alfred.

AFAIK, YES

but I could be wrong.

Naj

manz376 · « **Reply #16 on:** November 11, 2011, 22:11:38 »

Hi All, I would like one of these RHD pads please. I'm in the U.K

Sam.

Garry · « **Reply #17 on:** November 11, 2011, 22:16:22 »

Naj may be right.

Is there anyone on this forum with a RHD car that does not have the data/vin plate on the firewall?

Garry

sully · « **Reply #18 on:** November 11, 2011, 23:14:44 »

Hi evryone dont forget me. 1xRHD for me please.also Naj orderd 1xLHD for me too.

Sully.

Hi Garry

I think I had better make it 2 x sets - not the 1 as shown. Also I would like to register interest for boot (trunk) and footwell material when avaiable.

Cheers

Richard

66andBlue · « **Reply #22 on:** November 14, 2011, 04:45:42 »

Richard,
although we are gearing up to produce the footwell material I am afraid that this will fit LHD cars only.
What do these pads actually look like in your cars?

DaveB · « **Reply #23 on:** November 14, 2011, 09:08:04 »

That would be great but I'm mindful that it's best to travel light for business, especially if you can get all your gear into carry-on luggage. So I do not mind paying for postage.
Dave
