The PO just reglued a post to the wood with 2 part epoxy on mine
|
Nice work. :)
You could do a little torture testing of a replacement or two to see how they will hold up in shipping, but I suspect a simple padded mailer will suffice. |
I'll be a guinea pig recipient, for the torture test of the mailing :P

Sent two out via padded envelope. If they make it safe, the charge will be $10 shipped via padded envelope. I'll let Daw post his opinion whether he likes them or not.
|
Did you make a bunch of these? I'd love to buy a couple if you have.
|
I've been busy, but I should be able to crank some more out. I did send another one out, and it made it safely. The padded envelope seems to be working. As soon as I get some more done, I'll contact the people that sent me a PM and see if I can get some more out there. Appreciate the support.

How are you doing?

Some ideas -
Two-part epoxy is probably the best choice to reattach the broken pin. If the remaining pad is thick enough, it may be possible to center-drill the pin & pad to repair it with a thin screw. If the pin is missing, the same screw could support a bit of vacuum-hose or be wrapped with electical-tape as a substitute. The wood in one of my 240Ds is so poor, if the above fails, I'd probably just put a screw in from outside. Happy Motoring, Mark |
I could use one of these. Let us know when you go into production!
|
I have sent 4 out, with good response so far. I have three more already spoken for, and two more available right now. Padded envelopes have been working well for shipping. Just got a new shipment of resin, so I'll start cranking more out.
|
Adding a strip of bubble wrap will sure help eliminate shipping problems.

console pin
mine showed up in a padded mailer...no problems what so ever
Have not been able to install it yet..looks like it will do a great job! |
Very nice
I got my first one. Fits perfectly. I ordered a second one to put in the original console that I intend to refinish. Honestly, the quality of these pins look to be better than the original part!
By the way, getting those staples out was a huge pain. Any tips on how to remove them more easily? |
I'll take one too, I'm close to Suffolk, maybe we can meet.
