Clear or Color Battery Replacement Door

joey3002 · #1 (**permalink**) 08-02-2010, 09:21 AM

Just thought I would post on here about my project.. Its taken me 3 weeks using a caliper but I finally was able to make a proper door. Tons of suggestions from XDA members..

Anyway, I am finally doing pre-orders. If the admins would like 1 or 2 for a review, please let me know.. During the pre-order phase I am doing free shipping and even offering multi door discounts starting at 2 doors..

Just trying to give back to the community..

thanks

This ROCKS! I've been looking for a battery door replacement and a clear one is going to be the shiz! I ordered 2 today from your pre-order site.

Nice to see something being made by a fellow member instead of the ill-fitting crap normally found on ebay.

Great work Joe!

Looks like good work!! I think the admins should receive a couple for testing, and a VIP member should too....like myself..lol. The clear is super cool and should be a big hit considering the nice red guts of the Evo. I am a big fan of yellow myself so I am interested in seeing that also!!

If we get enough people, I have no issue with giving 1 or 2 to the admins to review and then doing a contest with them..

Since its a group buy, we need about 75 more to sell so we can get them made..

I wanted to bump this with a pic of the (almost) final prototype.
Joe is over the halfway point but he still needs more orders so he can start production.

Get em' while shipping is still free!

We are over half way.. We need less than 90 doors sold now to get this done. We are also keeping the pre-order price valid until Weds, 8/18... at which point, the price will be the normal 19.95 with free s/h.

So if you think you might want one, get it now while the price is 14.95 with free s/h

As Joe will tell you, that prototype is merely to show the fit and hole locations. The final door will be transparent (prototype was hand-sanded).

The price goes up to $19.99 tomorrow so order today and don't miss out on the free shipping!

Will the red be same red as the evos interior?

I did the best I could without know the exact pantone #. I used a book we have at work and it should be really close to the inside red.

Just a quick heads up, the mold is being made, I am hoping to ship the week of the 20th (september)

I go on vacation the 10th to 18th.

thanks
