Gear Stick and handbrake covers!!

Got some decent trim material and started cutting some shapes - and mockups etc- ILL POST PICS ASAP!! hopefully my upholsterer will do some decent work of the stitching!

I ended up with strong back black vinal- as the leather was just too thin and the vinal is the expensive one so is really flexible and hard wearing(just what we like)

the gear stick one is 2 piece and the handbrake 4 piece

Who needs them??? i can make a few more! i would only be looking at the cost made to me it was a couple of quid for stiching and same again for materials and the mock up- How about £12 for both( i think i can do for that) + p and p

i will have pictures up tommorrow

well actually im going to mock some up that fit perfectly around the covers, and Marc (MNR) might be able to get some laser cut from steel(stainless) for me .... if there is money in it he may do a batch ill ask him!!

mybees 2 covers and 2 surrounds as a package! between £25-£35 hope fully cheaper

Else where the cheapest ive seen them are normally 2 covers £10 and £11 each and 2 surrounds @ £12 and £14 each plus Vat and delivery best part of £65 if your lucky and ive got one here from.... no names mentioned..and my mock up is better quality

even more from demon theives or hellfruads

Possibly interested - I have some from Mr Gaitor on ebay.

They look ace - but the handbrake one doesn't quite fit my shortened Sierra handbrake - gutted

If yours will fit that and can have YELLOW stitching I'm there

Count me in!

Could I have them in black vinyl with red stitching by any chance?

Let us know when you've got fianl pricings. £11 - £12 for both gaiters is a great price!

Ta bud,

Chris.

I'm interested in both gaiters and both surrouns.
Do they have the tunnel contour (carbon one)?
Any chance of orange stiching? (if not then black)

Thank,
Joao
