I just emailed them, I'll let everyone know what I find out later today when they get back to me.

Here was their response:
Presses should be in soon. However, we cannot say exactly when. Our vacuum
former is currently working on them.

Regards,

Lo-tek, Inc.

I emailed them again and asked for a specific date since it has taken so long. THe second one said:
Manufacturing time vary greatly depending on the schedules of the three
different companies. Therefore we cannot give an exact date. As we said,
our vacuum former is in the process of pressing. We contacted them and they
estimate about about a week to form and press. Once we get the presses it
takes about 3-4 days to finish.

Sorry I haven't kept up with this like I should be guys. I dont have much time to check the forums and dont make as much time as I used to because I dont have the celi anymore. >>

I did email them today and asked for an update, asked if they had them back from being pressed, and got this as a response
"No. A plastic shortage caused an unusual delay. We left a message today
for an update but have not received an answer yet. Hopefully we will get
them soon."

Hopefully they will get them soon so then we can get them.


Later,

Kaleb

This is pretty rediculous. Does anyone have a date that our order started? I'd like to contact them again but I'd also like to have an exact date and didn't they say it would take somthing like 6-9 weeks? I could be off on that number though.

Did you see my new post about St. Louis??? I have a final pillar to test fit, but dont have a celi anymore. I need someone in Belleville, IL or St. louis area to let me use their car. As soon as this is test fitted and ok'd, they start shipping them out.

No I didn't see that one because I live in Texas so I didn't think that I would be much help to you. That sounds good then, hopefully you can find someone soon so we can get our pods. Thanks for the info.

The last I heard, phat94celi has a mock up of the pod to be test fitted but he doesn't have his car right now so he can't do it. If you know of anyone in the St. Louis area that could help out please let him know.

how bout he can send it out and someone can fit it and then send it back? IDK im getting annoyed.

I posted in another one that if he couldn't find anyone locally to do it for him that he could send it to me and I'd test fit it for him, but I never heard back from him so I'm guessing he's still trying to find someone. If there is someone else that he could send it to for cheaper then that would probable be the best thing.

I dont know how you folks feel about this, sort of a shady practice, but i just did a member search and complied a list of members who live in either Illinois or Missouri. Do you think if we PMed each of them and asked REALLY REALLY nicely that maybe one would help us out and let Kaleb test fit the mock-up on thier car?

They wanna just do one last test fit before they ship them all out. That way if there is a mistake they can get it fixed now, while they still can...

pictures are sort of fuzzy, but the first one looks nice. Im not sure what you are trying to show in the second one. Is there a large gap in the fitment at the top?

Can something be done about that gap?

the angle on the top pod looks really funny... amost like the guage is pointing out the window... if thats the case that might need to be fixed cus whats the point of haveing a 3rd guage if you cant see it correctly??

edit: on a closer 2nd look it MIGHT be just the lighting but still should be addressed
