Still only concentrating on the triples for now?  I would/will buy a single in a heartbeat if/when they are available.  Have you put one in a truck with no pillar trim to see how it fits?

Only working on a triple.  These require the factory pillar to work as they would attach to them.

Prices haven't been set at this time I still haven't figured out the cost yet.

I have been getting updates, but nothing worth putting on here.  Basically we had to find someone that would make it in one piece.  That took a while apparently as it was August when they started looking again.

Anyway here is what we have as of now:

I picked up the Triple 3D print today.  It is raining outside but I had to put it in.  Better pics later but let me know your feedback.

Looks really good. I was wondering if they will have a texture on them and possibly come in black. I don't know much about 3D printing.

They will come in grey so they can be dyed to match the customers interior.  It will have texture on it.  This is only the proof of concept before committing to making the injection molds.

I am new here and have been watching the progress on this.  I will be purchasing one when they are ready.  I would be happy with it the way it is but, while looking at it it looks like the upper pods need to be angled down just a little.  the bottom one looks perfect.

I agree, but I would be happy either way.
