Ok guys as much as I hate to make this post I need to. WE have ran into a problem that is going to reflect on some of you.

The company we have been getting the switches for to build the switch panles has been having a problem getting ahead of us. As a result of them being out of purge buttons we ordered some from another vendor to be able to fill some orders in this last batch that went out.

The purge button that was supplied to us is not the correct switch.:cry: It works opposite of how it is suppose to.

HERE IS HOW YOU KNOW IF YOU HAVE THE BAD PURGE BUTTON::::::

The purge button will have a crome body... Our normal ones used a black body....

HERE IS THE FIX::::

We need you to contact us and let us know that you are one of the guys with the wrong purge button. Unfortintly we are not going to have another batch of the correct ones until the 27th. As soon as they comes in we will send you the replacement at NO charge..

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

We have tried 20 other companys to find another supplier of the switches we need. So far we have had no luck... I am talking with the management of the company we purchase these from to resolve this constant shortage on our orders. It will take time for them to get ahead of what we are ordereing but we are trying to resolve the issue as soon as possible..

I am very sorry for the inconviences this has caused to anyone. I hate the fact that I have to make a post like this because something left here that is not right. But this is the best way to get the problem out in the open so we have the opportunity to correct it.

Thank you guys for all your support and patience.
Dave

Thanks for the honesty and communication. Good to know there are vendors out there that understand that although problems may arise from time to time, how they recover and service their customers is the key to continued business success.

Dave - do you have any of the fold up switch plates with the correct buttons in stock now that can be ordered and shipped, or won't they be available until after the 27th??

From what I was told if there is any chrome (polished aluminum) at all including the bezzle around the button itself than its the wrong one

lets put it this way Dave saw this photo posted in a section earlier
and could tell it was the wrong one

Hey guys. If your kit includes the stock purge switch (from the NX kit that many of Dave's kits are based on), just use that until you get the correct replacement. I'm using it in my install but just not mounting the switch panel but leaving it loose in the console pocket.

Hey guys..
Looking at the face of the plate. The purge buttons that have the chrome trim rings are the bad ones.
Like in the picture Slow goat posted. If the trim ring is black it is the correct switch. Like stated above you can use the NX button until I ship you the right one.. Other wise you can still install the switch panel just do not use that purge button for the purge.

Thank you for your understanding. Im sorry for the troubles.
Dave

Is there a chance of you not sending mine until it is correct?

I have good news guys. I found a company that had 75 purge buttons in stock. They will be here in two days.
This will take care of the current standing orders and the guys that got the wrong switch.
Then we will have 200 pices comming in on the 27th.
So we are steadily trying to get a bulk stock on these.
Thanks
Dave
