Ok so from what I've heard a lot of people here have these here but this is my first set and I think it's worth a share for sure!!

Got these from Dev here on SC...
He told me that he had the plug versions in the past but the set I got were magnetic. Very slick little product!!! Gives the car a nice sleek look. They even came delivered in these nice little jewelry type cases.....presentation is everything!

He has a website where you can buy these.... http://www.keytechniques.net/MR-S-main-page.html

Support this business.... passionate MR2 business and good guy!!

Dev, thanks man!

I just want to say for the record that I did not put xcomms up to this but at the same time I'm pleased that it was done on his own accord in genuineness for the appreciation and enthusiasm for the product. In the past I may have offered incentives but only on initial product introductions, I have since stopped and let my products sell on their own merit. I'm proud to say that many owners started their own threads on various Toyota and Scion forums.

Since my prices have gone up because of new postal rates I decided to give some value back by going the extra mile and color sand each piece by hand which is laborious but something that I'm able to do now with the faster drying clear that I'm using.

Things are winding down and I have to get out before I burn out so I could care less if I don't get anymore orders because I have already mentally prepared myself with the lack of international sales as I transition out. I will still honor my commitment for existing orders but please know that I will be winding down operations.

Is it too late to order 6R4 bumper plugs? I think I have a set but I'm not sure and since I'm officially leaving NJ (to move to SC where no front plate is required), I would like to get rid of my front plate bracket. Dev, I'm sure I speak for many here when I say I greatly thank you for the hard work and really nice products you brought to us all here. My car is a showcase of many of the products you've made over the years. They are really nice upgrades.

Dev is not only a miracle vendor, more importantly, he is a man of superior character. I am privileged to know him personally, and have the pleasure of spending time with the man. He has generously given of his time, both to me and this community.
I enjoy who he is and the car enthusiast within. We're damn lucky to have him here. Thanks for all of it, Dev.

Thanks for those heart felt words Laurence. I'm fortunate to have your friendship as well as many I have had the pleasure of meeting in person or online.
I don't deserve the kind mentions. I'm far from being anywhere near other members and sellers that have come before me and therefore a little embarrassed. At best I'm an equal participant that has profited.

I do have items left and still have the ability of making keyhole covers but no longer offer the magnetic version.
I plan to have a new website up later this summer depending on the economic outlook and availability of raw materials.
If you would like a pair of keyhole covers let me know on this thread and I can set that up for you. I am currently making a few for UK members this week.

I don't have a complete list of your other items, what else you got? Would be interested in the keyhole covers, whats the cost? Thanks

Not many items as most of them have been discontinued.
Right now I am only offering the keyhole covers, bumper plugs and some other painted items for Scions. Im also selling the door bushings which I have three sets available.

The cost of the keyhole covers is now $23 shipped. I no longer carry Electric Green mica which is 6R4 but all of the other colors are available.
If you are interested let me know and I will PM you for payment.

Instead of a insertable stem I switched to a magnet on the base of the cover. They were nice but over time I had a higher then expected failure rate of the adhesive cracking where I had to remake new ones. It was unacceptable so I discontinued making them and switched back to the more reliable stem version.

At this time I am placing keyhole covers on hold as I have to attend to a sick family member that is in the hospital. My existing orders were delayed as a result and I am getting them all shipped out Today.
If you are interested in the keyhole covers let me know or make a list with your color code and I will get to them once I have a free hand.

My family member was discharged from the hospital this afternoon. I am short on raw materials which I have to procure. I will be able to collect payment on Wednesday of next week so I can begin making the next batch of orders once I am able to have more supply.
If anyone else is interested now is the time.

No rush, family is what matters, I hope everything turned out good.
