Jay, Welcome, these are great!
Awesome opening post, too!

I’m soon redoing ours, painted to match the tan cabinets of early Westys.

Predict this is a dumb question: but can you do panels in any lighter colors?

Yours is exactly the business model we support every single day.
(unless broken down, or unable to find wallet)

PS — Hope you escaped Melissa!!!



Thanks so much for the warm welcome and kind words!

At the moment, we offer panels in black and white, but we’re actively working with a vendor to introduce tan and grey options that will complement a range of VW interiors across different years. We’re excited about the possibilities and hope to have those available within the next two months or so!

And yes — we made it through Melissa safely, thank goodness. Appreciate you checking in!

COOL, on all counts!

Is there a way for you to let me know when available? I can PM my info.

We are going to do all four door panels, in tan.

Thanks!


Feel free to send me a PM. We'll announce them regardless, but we'll make sure to notify you once they're available.

One of those pics is from my van install. Did the whole camper kit and am very happy with the upgrade.


Haha, yep — we loved your setup and had to share it!

Thanks again for the awesome install and recommendations!

I have not ordered my set YET, but sent a email asking about color options and received a quick and courteous response. That in and of itself is a big win these days! Look forward to ordering my set in the next few days!

Same here, exactly the type of vendor we gotta support.

Thanks so much — that means a lot!

We always try to reply the same day, because we’ve been on the other side of the counter too. When our hobby became a business, we promised ourselves to offer the kind of service we’d want as customers. That mindset still drives everything we do.
