I want to thank you all for the encouragements and positive feedbacks. I've decided to continue with my project. Since I have gathered enough interest in here, a group buy price will be in effect when the door sills become available (which will be within 1 week). If you have any questions, please feel free to drop me a note at harris@hartonmotorwerks.com

This is my first project, I hope I can try my best to do it as perfect as possible. Thank you! :p

This is how it looks like when installed.....

ONLY the letters will illuminate, the blue rectangle cannot be seen in actual production. This is still a prototype.

I'd guess that the prototype used thinner metal than production versions would, but that's only a guess.

Think he'd be able to do a "Suck This" sill for a certain member? :p

There are two layers on the strip, the top layer is plastic and the bottom layer is metallic. The prototype that we're showing uses a very thin metallic material, thats why its showing the blue rectangle. We will use a thicker material when in production.

My definition of a prototype is there are always room for improvement, while a finished product is suitable for mass production.

I'd definately be interested when you finish cleaning up the prototype. Let me know when we can start to order from you and how much it would cost.
