Patrick, thank you for the very kind words. I enjoy helping out where and when I can and I never would want anything for it. Enjoy your weekend.
I was just wondering the same.
Yes it’s been quite a while. No response to email inquiry either. I’m starting to wonder about recovering my money.I was just wondering the same.
I agree Matt, it has been quite a long time for this start button project. Kevin has had nothing but problems with it as I had explained in previous months. Production (had to change companies twice), anodizing and etching problems and then there is the issue he was changing business locations and hired on a couple of new employees which I never mentioned. I personally don't know where he is on these start buttons as I have been quite busy with other projects and I am leaving for Europe in a few days so getting ready for that but I will try to contact him to see what's up. I completely understand if you want to get your money back however I know he is still working on this, so don't want you to think he has dropped the ball or anything.
Thanks for the detailed response. That button you have pictured is exactly what I ordered and it looks great! I’d love to have it if they are indeed still in process.I agree Matt, it has been quite a long time for this start button project.

Below is a photo he sent me a few weeks ago which I never posted. I know this only affects those that have GT models but he was able to get the copper anodizing color perfect on the start buttons. I had sent him part of a GT dash that has the B&O emblem to match it against.
Yes that copper button has taken him quite a while to get correct (he is a perfectionist) and that wil be the one you will be getting (not that exact one
).
Thanks for the quick response. They look great. That copper/bronze is what I ordered too! I hope the color matches the dial covers still and the button doesn't look different from the rest. It's probably far enough away, that you can't tell anyway. So realistically looking at around a month or more wait? Good to know he's still working on it. Can't wait to complete the set!Yes that copper button has taken him quite a while to get correct (he is a perfectionist) and that wil be the one you will be getting (not that exact one
I just got this reply from him this morning.
Hi Mark,
The new batch is with the anodisers now, they've done 3-4 batches in the past few months but I was not happy with those results so had to repeat the whole endeavour again several times until got the result I am confident with. While it is an aggravating process for everyone, some owners would appreciate the product they're receiving has gone through a stringent development cycle.
New batch of buttons require approximately 2 weeks to get back from anodising and then another 2-3 days for me to engrave them before they are dispatched.
Apologies, to everyone. This has been one frustrating project.

Can't say how long it will be and not going to even estimate anymore as I always seem to be wrong.
That makes sense. I love the knob covers. Really makes the interior look high end. I wasn't a fan of the shiney plastic. Either way, I'm looking forward to it. I know everything takes longer these days. I'm still waiting on my custom floormats with copper stitchingCan't say how long it will be and not going to even estimate anymore as I always seem to be wrong.
The button more closely matches the B&O than the dials do. The dials more closely match the copper of the seats I believe. I know there are two different copper colors in that car. If I am correct, the B&O emblems do not match the copper stitching. So I think Kevin went more with the copper stitching that is right around the console for the knobs since they were close to it and went with the B&O copper for the start button. That is what I think I remember. Could be wrong.
It was supposed to take 1 month and it's been 4 with no date in sight. Eventually it will all come together
