[This sale has ended. Thanks everyone! If you missed out, Travis will make the faceplates available in the near future at regular prices, through his normal distribution channels. Travis tells me the stickers will be available soon and will be first offered at a special price on Carpokes -- so stay tuned on that! --Tom]


Hello Carpokes!

AC control unit faceplates are here. This is the initial offering and exclusive sale price available only on Carpokes!

Image

I talked with @Tom and he said that selling these things for $25 would be "Stupid Cheap." I strongly disagreed but Tom was steadfast. Not wanting to be argumentative, it is his forum after all, I decided to raise the price.

For a limited time you can grab a new AC control unit faceplate, including shipping inside the US, for...

$26.00

Important sale notes:
  • These DO NOT come with stickers
  • You CAN buy stickers later when they're available
  • You CAN buy as many as you like
  • You MUST be a member here (it's free, just sign up)
  • US shipping is INCLUDED
  • International shipping is an additional $26 for Fedex

Product notes:

These are brand-new injection molded parts made from polycarbonate. We redesigned the part so the snowflake and defrost buttons DO NOT have to be removed to install this faceplate, like the factory units. You will have to brake your original faceplate, if it's not already broken, to remove it from around these buttons.


This sale has ended. Thanks everyone! Rennbay will make the plates available at regular prices soon.

Awesome product , got 75% of the way through getting one done for printing . But at this price it isn't worth my time and effort. Is the international shipping a fixed rate no matter how many are purchased?

Yep, $26 international shipping charge, no matter how many you buy. Just add one extra faceplate to your total quantity and that will cover shipping outside the US.

Tell them to join up here, and I'll send out a batch of my slider knob repair inserts for free, as my way of saying thanks. In fact, anyone who wants repair inserts to go with their new clear faceplate, just let me know!

If you want to swing by sometime, just give me a heads up so I can be sure to have some handy.

I got my faceplate today!
Looks amazing and much better than the one I glued back together with some extra plastic.
Will post some pictures once I swap it in!
