This whole "very soon" thing is getting on everyone's nerves I think...or maybe I'm just impatient

10,000 views and 13 pages and we haven't even seen a final pic?

I have given everyone an estimated time frame, which means that it can go up or down depending on the circumstances. I'm sorry that we can't work as fast as everyone would like but would you rather wait and get a quality product or have a really crappy one quickly. LOTS and LOTS of time and effort goes into something like this. I will post pics of our final design once we get them in our hands.

I bought my vette used with only one key.
Am I going to be able to get a second key and fob to boot if I buy one with the fob guts in tact??

I am not sure how long it has been, first time viewing the post. I do see there has been 10,000 plus views. I am interested, awaiting the price and date of release.
Keep us posted.
Thanks
