GB: Aluminum Map Pocket Lid (driver door) - SakeBomb Garage

Oh you're driving around with a gaping hole in your door also?

Me too.

Many of us have had to deal with a broken map pocket lid for years... I even replaced mine with a brand new piece from Mazda only to have it break again 8 months later. I've repaired it with short term success, but another 2 months and it was again broken. Word on the street is that even the plastic replacement may now be NLA from Mazda

So this thread is to gauge how much interest there would be in producing an identical replacement (similar to the door handle we recently released -> https://www.rx7club.com/group-buy-product-dev-fd-rx-7-269/gb-fd-aluminum-passenger-door-handle-sakebomb-garage-922132/ ). Again this is an INTEREST THREAD! As an honest guesstimate, I would assume the price would end up someplace between 200-300. No, it will not be cheap. Yes, it will permanently fix the poorly designed part from mazda, while EXACTLY matching the rest of the door plastics for 93 or 94+ finish cars (and will last the life of your FD!)

If you are seriously interested, please add your name and finish to the INTEREST LIST. With enough people on board we will explore turning this into a GB.

I'd actually be more interested in a sturdier dash vent piece that is EOL and constantly breaking.

I think I said it before on your Passenger Door Handle thread, I will said it again "This is ridiculous."

What is your direct deposit account for SBGarage? This will help with the future products, you can just put my name on any other products that come out.

Anyway, why not. I'm in.
