 Bob at APPBIZ here Really would like some feedback from you guys on our newest product. We have been the leading vendor of 911/930 door panels for years. We have been asked by many 914 owners to develop more 914 products. After nearly a year we finally have 914 door panels in production. We had a big battle forming the top piece and finally decided we would do it in metal like the factory did on some cars. We think the results are spectacular. Pictured above is our 914 RS America Plus panel. It features a 911 RS America Handle with OEM Bezels and a 916 style accordion pocket. Pictures of our other 914 panel sets will be added to this post as we upholster them. This model was the most complex so we figured we would tackle it first. We have just begun production and will have several versions of 914 / 916 panels available very soon. Again I would really appreciate your comments on these. We really value the opinions of you guys and with your help we can make this a terrific product. Bob bob@appbiz.com |

Would it be possible to get them without the map pocket? Have you thought about making them with the RS style pull tab instead of the stock pull handle?
If you could do it without the pockets and with the RS pull tab, I'd definitely be interested! They look great! Edit - You beat me to it. I guess you can get it without the map pocket. What are the panels made of? Cheers, |

Cheers, The problem we have with the RS opener strap is how to make unlocking and locking the car from inside possible...... As the unlock mechanism is integrated wiith the opener Any suggestions Bob |

As the unlock mechanism is integrated with the opener Any suggestions Bob Good point! I never though of that issue. It would be quiet a bit more work to incorporate that. Could it be possible to have the lock tab directly above the pull strap, and work it into the bezel somehow? I imagine that would take a lot of work though. I never lock my car, so I don't think it would be less of an issue for me, but I imagine most owners would want some way to lock it. Cheers, |
