Crew Cab Window Switch Bezel
Is there any interest in them? I know they are fairly common to crack/brake. They have been obsoleted for a bunch of years now.
I am in the works with a guy to make new ones from a better quality plastic and all one piece. I can get them cheaper, If he makes more. Just trying to get a feel for the "need" on these

I can send you a picture next to a tape measure in a couple hours if you want. How is he going to do it. The guy I was talking to was going yo blow mold them. I was talking to another guy about cutting them out aluminum

Exactly if I have the piece blow molded I'm either at a high price point and lower qty. Or low price point high qty.

A lot of people may not understand wholesale. It's like the printing business the more pieces the cheaper the per piece is. Wait another 50 years when these are true classics like my dad's 41 and then they would think 100. Is pretty cheap.

Don't quote me, but IIRC the original Ford pieces was over $70 when available

That's why they aren't available now everybody probably cried about the price. Now they can see where that got them. But realistically for a major manufacturer to charge that much is a little steep.

Not necessarily. They usually have an outside company make them, and if only 1% of the 92-97 F-Series trucks had those bezels, that's a hefty price they need to pay to have them made for them.
