Bhicks- I have a guy in Tustin who's willing to let you have your way with a 1990 4wd auto. If that could work I can get it going.

I'm heading out to Huntington Beach to pick up a car for my wife right now. I will be going right through Tustin. Have your buddy call me. I can meet him on my way out or on my way back. Probably be around 2:30 on the way out or 5:00pm on the way back. (9O9) 2three8-3333

Well... your buddy doesn't need to call me. I was just pumping gas getting ready to head out to Huntington Beach and a 2nd gen 4 wheel drive Auto pulled up right next to me. I walked over to the guy and told him the project I was working on. He seemed happy and excited about it. Gave me access to his car for about five minutes. I got all the pictures and dimensions I needed. Fitment was 99% perfect I just need to make a couple tiny little tweaks. Going to make those today. I will have pictures of this prototype installed this evening when I get back. The good news is that he is local. He gave me his address and phone number. I now have access to it for final fitment of the final design. Should be within the next couple days.

Looking forward to seeing 4.0
Is your price point going to be similar to your other models?

Test fit 4.0 yesterday and it was 99% perfect. I had one tiny change needed which I already made. Version 5.0 is now printing. Fingers crossed that this one will be perfect.

Price point will be the same as the 3rd Gen cup holders.
