Keyhole Covers Painted to Match - Taking Orders Now!!!

They are available for pre order at this time. The cut off date for the free shipping on the hatch cover is two weeks from this date. Once I have enough orders to break even I will order the paint. 62U/WA916K Neptune is with me at the moment and will ship earlier then the others. Please follow the directions for ordering on this link on Scion life. You will be ordering the TC 1.2 covers.
http://www.scionlife.com/forum...00479No one has to sign up on Sion life to order. I just need them to paypal
keytechniques@hotmail.com and add in the message box the following information. a) Quantity b) Product; keyhole coversc.)PAINT CODE d. SCREEN NAME and name of the website where you ordered.I would like everyone to pay for Just the keyhole covers now and the hatch at a later date when it becomes avalible. Those that pay within the two week period will get free shipping on the hatch cover when it is ready for sale. I will order the paint that is nessesary if and when I can break even on the paint. That mark is set depending on what colors are ordered and how much investment I am willing to put in myself depending on the level of interest. If some of the colors are not ordered in a weeks time then I will not place an order for those colors a good example is pink which I doubt anyone would order. So lets let this ride and let people place their orders and I will give it one week from today and based on the orders I will order the paint. I will however have the neptune blue color ready to be made on Wednesday regardless since I have the paint in hand.ThanksdevI have been in contact with KeyTechniques, a sponsor over on NewCelica.org, to see if he can make keyhole covers, painted to match, for our Vibes. He said he can do it but we need at least 30 people willing to order them. Here is a link to his vendor sale on NC.org with info, pics and their pricing:
http://www.newcelica.org/forum...45431Here are some pics of the ones on the Celica's from that thread on NewCelica.org: Here is his thread on Scionlife.com for keyhole covers for the tC & xB. The tC door hadles are just like ours so it will give you a good idea of what they will look like and pricing. Please be very patient their site is very slow loading. Here are a couple pics from the Scionlife.com sale:
http://www.scionlife.com/forum...yhole Our pricing would be similar to theirs. We have 2 door keyholes and 1 hatch keyhole. The two door keyholes are the same depths but the hatch keyhole is a different depth as shown in the following pics I took and measured of my Vibe:Doors:Hatch:Our paint codes are found on the lower left of the white sticker in our glove box.

The Matrix and Corolla have different keyholes and colors so it is up to us to meet this quota. This is a nice easy cheap appearance mod for our Vibes. We have very little aftermarket support f
or our Vibes. This would be a great addition to have.Thanks and let's try to get these done. I finally received the sample keyhole covers. Here are the pics:

Once a little bit comes out then push upwards and pull again to wiggle them out and what ever you do please take your time.

I might interested but the only thing is I'm not sure to put abyss as the paint color... when I had my cladding painted I just told them black... so can I get these primed or something then let my body shop paint them when I get my door handles done?Or do you think Abyss would match? is it just a normal black?

You could always have them repainted when your handles are done at the same time.

Pricing will be similar to the tC pricing of:$16.50 for the 2 doors only & $22.50 for 2 doors/1 hatch. They will look almost exactly like the pics of the tC door handle in the 7th pic.We're halfway there after only one day! Great job Guys! He is making me a set to test out. I will let you know when I get them and take pics after I receive them and of them installed. He also signed up here on GenVibe yesterday as KeyTechniques.
