I fully understand.
Draw up the schematic for it, pics, parts used, etc - send it to me. I'll get it to my guys and we can see about sending it overseas.
Put it this way........a part that was normally $20 I thought I was doing great to get at $13......it was $4 in China. Adds up a LOT when my first run of the adapters was 115 sets.......second run was 100 sets, and I ordered another 85 sets today.

What are you working on Morgan? lol... Unless I missed it, I never seen what the project was...
I have a feeling it has something to do with Wires and pin connections........

Lol. It's a Power Wagon smartbar locker bypass. This will allow you to use the lockers any time you want, not just when the computer thinks you need them.

Damn. All it takes is a small idea or an idea that no one else wants to do and you can make a good chunk of change...right JJ?

hell, there are a lot of guys that do headlights, its the fun part of having the balls to rip them open. LOL (or pure stupidity on some of these lights).
The adapters I sell, man........thats turned into a LOT more than I ever expected. I wish they were a bit cheaper, but after all of the lovely connectors, pins and now resistors go into it......hell, it bites. BUT.........and I shit you not.........I've talked to a few dealers around the nation and Canada, they hardwire them most of the time - at a cost of 3-4 hours labor each. Can you imagine paying 3-4 hours of labor for that? AND you can't just unplug the damn thing. NO.
I literally just got in my shipment of the 2nd round about 2 weeks ago.......and another order in already. I simply don't want to run out. Last time I ordered when I had 44 sets left. I was doing great until my german friend bought 10 sets of lights in one order (surf and turf for dinner that night bitches!) LOL

I wish there was a bigger market for these. Since they only work on 4th gen Wagons, there's not a ton of people out there to buy them.
