I am interested too subject to final costings - but as posted above would really prefer the carbon to be finished in the same satin finish as is fitted to the V12V / V8VS.

Logo. Yes, needs to have something on top.
Buttons. I do not really want to touch them right now.
Finish. Both gloss and matte can be made.

The idea would be to keep all internal parts from the plastic key and just swap the shell, which should be a straight forward job.

For button labels, I don't mean on the buttons themselves, but right above/below them. Even if you just duplicate the symbols that are on the glass key buttons (which is what I think is invisibly stamped on the rubber buttons).

Oh yeah, you could make it part of the James Bond collection by working a 22 caliber single shot pistol into it. That would be cool. smile

yes please, especially if AM Logo at the end as already mentioned.
May be a problem with AM licensing to sell them with the logo - however if there was an 'engraving service' where customers could ask for it...

Seems to be a fair bit of interest in the ECU and Volvo style key. Is there a possibility this will now progress?

Yes, I have a list of about 25-30 who have shown interest.
I made the CAD models this week and sent to manufacturer for quotation.
I will come back later this week with a price.

So far I have 27 for the ECU and only 3 Volvo. So I am starting with the ECU. We will see about the Volvo after the ECU is successful.
It might take a couple of weeks before I get the prices. So please be patient :-)

I think we are near 8-10 for the re-casing of the Volvo key. How many do you ideally want/need to make a prototype viable?
