Good info dude! Looks like the 453 comes in most newer Toyota Prius from what I have found online. That is probably what I will get, that or a 341.

Damn! I have skipped over this thread since it was first posted as I didn't know Gentex from Windex. Now I do, and you, sir, are guilty of joining the ranks of other "enablers" who have stuff that " I didn't even know I needed." (and now can't live without).

Great creativity and execution.

Arms done, blocks next

 

[NLXTACY]

Words I never thought I’d utter: “I just purchased $500 worth of windshield wedges”

 

[NLXTACY]

The blocks for the 80s are done. Up next is the 60 blocks.

The things on the left are for the 1FZ turbo. Nothing you folks would be interested in

Clearly you are hinting at the upcoming Wits' End 1FZ to 60 series adaptor kit.

You forgot turbo

 

[NLXTACY]

60 blocks almost done.

 

[NLXTACY]

The arms and cable plates are at powder coating and should be ready by about Wed. The blocks for the 60 and 80 are going off to anodizing tomorrow and should be ready by Wed/Thurs. Table covers are going to be laser etched on Wed and will be ready by the following Monday at the latest. This means the Gentex Mirror Arms will be ready to ship in just over a week.

Sooooo funny story...

I just got a S&D letter from Gentex.

 

[GLTHFJ60]

Change the name, "custom mirror arm for whatever mirrors you find on ebay"

Just make sure you ship the pre-orders out

 

[Spike Strip]

^^
Exactly - Then list, "Fits Gentex Model # ....

They're upset 'cuz you're close to labeling it a Gentex product by using Gentex in the name...

 

[NLXTACY]

Anodize was ready a day early so off to laser etching.

Why the f*** is Gentex worried about some eccentric guy making arms for 30 year old vehicles??

 

[NLXTACY]

ANNOYING delay. Just got here to the powder coaters to pick up the arms and they couldn't find my order. Just found the box and of course nothing was done to them. So I have to come back out on Wed to pick these up which now pushes everything back one week. ARGH!!

 

[nfranco]

Pretty sure the G****x people got to your powder coater.
