Default EOI for antenna adaptors to suit ARB Bull Bars

I've had a few enquiries regarding the wedge washers I had made up to fit an antenna to the sloping wings of the ARB bar. Consequently I'm investigating the feasibility of doing a short run of these for JK owners who would like one (or more).

This is the sort of thing I'm talking about:







More info in this thread: http://www.ausjeepoffroad.com/forum/...ad.php?t=82706

The adaptors would be set up to mount GME style antennas, big enough to accommodate the GME heavy duty spring bases and anything smaller. I would also supply longer bolts to suit GME antennas with the centre drilled out to accept the coax that runs out through the bolt.

I expect the cost to be somewhere around $30 for a pair of wedges and a longer bolt. This may seem a lot for what it is but the machine bar stock that it comes out of is about $150/metre and there's a bit of material lost in the machining. They're also a bit fiddly and time-consuming and I need to pay the guy for a couple of hours to be fair and make it worth his while.

Anyway, reply to this thread if you reckon you'd be interested so we can gauge if it's feasible and if so how many we should do. As we're only aiming to cover the costs of materials and labour, if I get left with even one or two unsold it will end up costing me.

I'm keen. I think $30 is quite fair.
