Hey, you should stock the half-bra for the hood, too. I hat the looks of the full ones, and found the one I've got on the net. VERY sharp and sleek looking, not overkill, and no flapping. Really does a great job of protecting the leading edge of the hood. Mine'* made by Saddleman (porous, self drying--fast), but I can check my bookmarks if you're interested.

I have an inside track on Saddleman and will pursue them for mirror bras for us. I just wanted to let everyone know I have left two phone calls and two E-mails and I am waiting for a response from the makers of the pillar pod. Once they contact me ill let you know. Sorry it’* going so slow but at least we have a deal pending for both the 87-91 and the 92-99. The 2000-2003 will come next.

Well I am not happy at this point. no we have not reached yellow alert, but let me tell you they don’t want me to be unhappy. So enough posturing now for the reason why the delay on the price and the go ahead. #1 the company E-mailed me back with a note stating they had not received the package. Then I immediately contacted the yard that sent them who professionally got the tracking number and the location of the drop and the date it was dropped and at what time I have relayed the information back to the company and gave them the tracking # too so this can get back on track asap. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. Oh just so you understand this may well be a mix up the package was delivered on .....September the 11th. What a day to have a package delivered. It was sent on the 3rd of sept.. Anyway I am thinking people were not really paying attention that day. Like I have said before the vendors are who slow down my progress. I will let you know as soon as I hear a from these guys.

Ok I was contacted and they had put it under the wrong name because the yard I had send them had their name on the box and the guy filing them didn’t read the small print. So they have them and the 1987-91 is covered and the 1992-95-or 96 is covered. This is where I need some help for some guy on this site who works at a Pontiac dealership.??? Does the 97-99 Bonneville have a different pillar than the 1992-96?

If so I will send in a 1997 one so we have full coverage. I will also be sending in a 2000 unit asap. I figure by the time I’m finished we will have full coverage and if it is needed we can have it made.

According to my local dealer the 92-95 pillar is the same all the way through to 99.

Ok I have a price. $8000.00 a unit all will be gold or platinum coated.

Actually they will be 46.99 US each. That’* painted too. I have yet to set colors for each set. There will be three colors we can pick. Once I find out the colors we can vote on it. Once I have all the crossover and color info worked out then we can round up the masses to make these happen.

I need an order of 30 or more for each run. I was hoping for 20 but they upped it to 30 for each

So if you own an H body from 87-91 or 92-99 you can now say yes there is a pillar pod for our cars. I will soon be posting pictures of the mock-ups. Yes I will be making a pod for the 2000-2003 three next. I am sure the price will be around the same. Because the 2000-2004 will be the same interior i will be offering it to dealerships as well so we can get the numbers up.

I still don’t know what the shipping cost will be but I will work it out. I will also be offering the actual pods and other accessories associated with the pods. Remember with a pillar pod your car will go extremely fast. Even better than a sticker.
