You're a very clever guy, Dave. I'm in too.

Looks good. Want to see what it would look like against the CF dash. If anyone has one on the CF dash, please post a picture.

I've been thinking about trying to find a carbon fiber adhesive sheet to cover the button but thought its still gonna look like a button to press. While I'm sure that would be considerably less expensive, this seems like a better option covering the button completely. Nice product, ordered

Would like one that is just plain and blends in. Never cared for the "Jake" look.

I have a CF dash. This area of the dash is not CF though.

I think he could put a little logo there like for the Z51, Z06, ZR1 and GS.

The color looks slightly different than the stock color of the panel, is that the photo or is your part color matched?

I love the concept!

I just don't see me putting a Jake anywhere on my car. I would buy one if it was not that. Just plain and looked like it was OE.

Nice idea, but it looks like C6 flags on it.

The international shipping charge of $25 is a deposit. Any unused portion is refunded.
We do that because Canada is a big place, eh?
And the hosers at the border are always adding costs, eh?

I too am not a fan of the Jake. At all. But since its the only product of its kind out there I bought. Dave, if you were to produce either a plain or crossed flags version, you'd get a second sale from me. Food for thought

Default Why the change

A couple of weeks ago I ordered the seat belt clips and they came with no shipping charge, I assume because they were shipped in a little package . Today I started to order the “secret “ screen cover and saw there was a $5.25 shipping charge. No secret...I didn’t place the order.

There are no secrets regarding our shipping! We have to pass along the shipping charges to get the items to you. We even take a hit and offer free shipping for orders over $50.

Your order for the Seat Belt Stays was placed with no shipping as a result of a configuration error in the web site, which has now been fixed. You got the benefit of that and now propose, what, a conspiracy? And you didn't buy the screen cover because of it??? Good grief..

Darn capitalists here in America, always trying to make a Buck on someone. What’s this guy at Sandyeggo thinking. Probably want to get a fair wage if he had a regular job.

Must of missed this part of his ad.

I know you said this in jest but many people think this way. That's how a free market system works. It's a voluntary EXCHANGE of value for value (i.e. good or service for $$$). And that's how you work too. That is unless you are volunteering you are exchanging your labor for compensation. IOW you can look at this as if you're making a buck off the business by working for them. And all of this is voluntary! Nobody's forcing you to participate - you do so of your own free volition.
