He said around four weeks to make the moulds, and he'll want to send out a test peice to trial-fit first, so a little longer yet :huh:

Just had an email from him - the door cards and dash plates should be ready shortly - good job, it's even colder / noisier driving round with no door cards (tho the mould making process has munched my old ones :( ) Something nice to spend Crimbo monies on then :D
