TIA
Rich.
baimpala 08-24-2004, 07:46 AM Trippin,
That is soooo sweet.http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Clap.gif Much better than round 1. I'm sure you will be able to find donor volunteers for version 1 though.
Dennis
Trippin,
You're certainly zeroing in on the design, looks a bunch better than that first version...http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Clap.gif
6061 T6? That ought to still be intact after the truck gets old enough it goes through the crusher...http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/HiHi.gif
Trippin 08-24-2004, 11:39 AM I may not be any good...........but I'm slow! http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Embarrased.gif

I dunno it looks kinda flimsy to me. Maybe you should consider casting it out of iron.http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/HiHi.gif
Burner 08-25-2004, 03:06 PM Sweet
IBDMAX'IN 08-25-2004, 03:50 PM I've gotta have one!!! Looks great!!! http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Clap.gifhttp://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Clap.gif
10-ton 08-25-2004, 10:52 PM Let me know when your ready to accept orders, I can now buy the J/A knowing that I'll finally be able to mount the attitude in a way that won't drive me nuts. Thanks for all your hard work. Brian Edited by: 10-ton
Trippin 08-25-2004, 11:18 PM Guys,
I'm working on the pricing now.
Let me get this one completed and in my truck to make sure it meets my standards, on what I had envisioned and then I will take some orders. As always thanks for your patience. http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Embarrased.gif
I'm considering some black anodized to mimic the factory insert in the console. Any thoughts?
GMC2500HD 08-25-2004, 11:19 PM Well hurry up already.... http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Evil Smile.gif
will w 08-25-2004, 11:24 PM is it possible to offer red or blue anodizing? maybe when it is installed in your truck you could snap a pic from the drivers view. i am interested as well, looks trick. wil
Guys,
I'm considering some black anodized to mimic the factory insert in the console. Any thoughts?
I think that would be an idea worth pursuing...http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Ermm.gif
It would look better if you still intend to make a version which only holds the Attitude board, showing the face and buttons, but no silver case.
The black Lexan I have for the dealer visit EGT gauge looks really clean in my opinion. Most who've commented on the pic I posted of that install liked the look.
HBruns 08-26-2004, 12:03 AM Jeez...
Between your Attitude mounting plate and DmaxalliTech's WIF sensor wrench its like pulling teeth to get a friggin' price!
Gimme a ballpark figure... maybe a high/low range. Guess... PDOOMA even!
I like the looks of it, I just need to have some idea about how much.... and a guess about when they will be available to us normal folk (Days? Weeks? Months?).
AkDually61 08-26-2004, 06:34 AM If you could do "RED" anodized that would be great !!!http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Hug.gif But black would work well also. I am standing by.......http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Rock On.gif
redneck45 08-26-2004, 08:01 AM Damn it, I just installed my ATS mount last week, now you come out with a better one!
KTDURAMAX 08-26-2004, 04:47 PM Looks great! How about a bigger area picture so we can get the full view. I like the second one sooooooo much better! You need to add the holes for switches so that the guys that have the ATS one can transfer to yours. Otherwise I won't be able to activate my NOS. http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/HiHi.gif
On edit: I don't have nos yet...still saving up for stage III tranny. http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Embarrased.gifEdited by: KTDURAMAX
Redapple 08-27-2004, 10:34 PM I LIKE IT!!!
Sign me up for one!
Bill
blowinsmoke 08-28-2004, 12:34 AM I bought this one for $45, it took about 5 minutes to install and all I had to do was remove the black plastic junk drawer . The console is only held in by a pair of screws and some plastic clips. I did have to take the back off of the ***. and drill a hole where the cable exits, actually it just needs to be extended from its current location to the back side of the plate. The plate is brushed aluminum and snaps in really tight. You can get it with or without the switches. I plan on adding some goodieshttp://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Evil Smile.gif to those switches once I read about a thousand more threads.
Really easy stuff, really clean. My dealer wants to know where I got it because he wants one for his personal truck.

KTDURAMAX 08-28-2004, 10:15 AM A lot of people on here have that one........been around for a while. Only problem is it's hard to see from the drivers seat. Thats why Trippin is making one with an angle built in.
akdiesel 09-02-2004, 01:53 PM Hey Trippin, what is the latest word on the new improved mount completion.
What ever you come up with I am sure it will look and work great, so I am up for one.

What's the lates word on this mount? Did it meet your standards? If so how long the wait and how much the cost.
I WANT ONE!!
Stefan K 09-14-2004, 01:49 PM That looks real nice. Is this new version easy to read from the seat?
Trippin 09-14-2004, 04:28 PM Hey guys,
I'm cutting 40 pcs this week. There is alot of material to remove and I'm experimenting to find the best way to hog it all out. The run time for each part will affect the final price, So I'm trying to get the run time down so the final price comes down as well. This is why I haven't posted a price yet.
I'll send them out for anodize/clear coat and we should be ready to ship in about a week or so.
Thanks for your patience! http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Embarrased.gif

GMC-2002-Dmax 09-15-2004, 01:42 AM Uhmmmmmmmmmm.
Trippin tested the two prototypes on my truck at Kennedy's........
He is finetuning the mount for 2001/2002 as I type this.......
There is a slight difference in the 01/02 and the 03/04 overhead consoles.........
I'll let everyone know when my finished one is sent to me for testing again and how it fits.........

(We're still waiting for the "its ready" message ;))
Thanks again,

GMC2500HD 10-02-2004, 07:48 PM I want one too, but you need to hurry up before I get edgy and order an ATS mount...http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley36.gif
GTFD736 10-02-2004, 09:29 PM Put me on the list for one also. 2004.
Trippin 10-03-2004, 02:05 PM I have some out for quoting on the finishing. I had to dash out of town unexpectedly Thursday and just got back. I should have the quote on Monday. Then I can finalize pricing and we can get going on this deal. I'm sorry it's taking so long to get pricing etc. I just wanted to be fair to everybody on how much to charge. So cycle times and finishing costs were a big concern. Production and delivery will be much faster, I promise. http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley9.gif
They will be available in the following finishes as standards.
1) Brushed Aluminum and clear coated.
2) Black Anodized and clear coated.
3) Polished Aluminum and clear coated.
I have created a list of names by date of response, both PMs and in the threads, and will contact/ship to those people first before filling new orders. http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley4.gif
Thanks for your patience. http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley9.gif
moss022 10-03-2004, 04:47 PM is there or can there be any switches on it like the one from ats??
GMC2500HD 10-03-2004, 05:02 PM is there or can there be any switches on it like the one from ats??
See now you are getting greedy... This is a first run item and will need time to be revamped again so that stuff can be added.... Just give it time....http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley3.gif
Trippin 10-03-2004, 05:10 PM is there or can there be any switches on it like the one from ats??
I have center drilled the back side of the mount in two places so the location is established for those that wish to add switches. Or using smaller switches/lights, more can be added. I never cared for the big switches that were in the original mount. Realizing everybody has a different need for their truck I have tried to remain as flexible as possible.
moss022 10-03-2004, 05:20 PM thanks for thinking of everyone!!!!! http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley2.gif http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley4.gif
1sick57 10-03-2004, 06:05 PM I'll buy one!
corona 10-03-2004, 08:43 PM What are you guys doing for removal when it takes a trip to the
dealer? Seems like if it was mounted up there, it'd be a pain in
the ass?
bigblockquad 10-03-2004, 11:05 PM Patiently waiting............Hopefully you'll take paypal?
Rich.
mrmagu 10-03-2004, 11:20 PM I'll take two, (2). When available of course.
