Dowser Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 (edited) Just to keep you guys up to speed, I've had a few things going on the past 6 days. My 1 year old was very ill and admitted to hospital for a few days. Poor girl had to suffer thru about 20 needles in 72 hours. Took them 7 attempts just to get an IV bag set up since her veins were so small due to severe dehydration. It was the most heart wrenching experience of my life watching my little girl scream out so badly due to all that pain. They really dug around in her trying to get a vein, it must have been sooo freaking painful. I had a real tough time not breaking down myself seeing her like that. She is slowly recovering from a serious virus and her white blood count was very very low so we've been in hospital for the last while. Things are progressing slowly but optimistacally. At any rate, this isn't the main reason the cash has not yet been sent to the company. The reason for the wait was that when I received Presice's check and deposited it in my account a couple days later, the bank put a hold on a percentage of the funds for 5 business days until things cleared. I wasn't able to transfer the whole amount to paypal until that time so it was a waiting game. I think everything is clear now but as I mentioned, I was a little preoccupied. I'll get things started hopefully the start of next week. Crappy delay... I know. I'm just as amped as you guys to get this finished. I'll let you all know more as soon as I know more. Cheers.

Puckstoper9 Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 Dowser, I hope your daughter is getting better. The main priority has to be Family. At this point I would have to say that a bit more delay is no big deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nunya Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 I may not have coin involved in this project but would think (well at least hope) I can speak for all when I say take care of the little one first bud. I'd much rather see your family healthy than a pic of somebody windshield pillar with a vacuum gauge in it. Best wished from this end, get her healed up and be strong for her!

Harbinger Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 I concur! Take care of your little girl. I have a transmission to replace before I worry about installing more gauges that might not work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dowser Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Thanks for all the well wishing everyone. She's home now and recovering well. My other 2 kids and I were ailing from other sickness and were not allowed in the same environment as my youngest due to her immune system being so weak so we had been staying at my Sisters for a week. It's good to be back at home and have everyone on the road to recovery. Ok on with the show. The bank has released the funds to me on Friday and the next minor delay has arrived. Paypal. To transfer money from my Bank account to my Paypal account its a 6 day transaction. I don't understand what the hell for, but this is what I've been told. Sorry guys, I'm trying to move this along but all these unforseens are driving me nuts. On a good note though, I've been talking with the company and they've agreed to just send us the mock up/proto type, so that should go out by Monday. So some progress, which is better then none. So there we are. when it arrives, I'll take a bunch of pictures, and install it to see how it fits with more pictures etc. Finally... somethings happening.

Precise1 Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 Glad to hear that things are returning to (Dowser) 'normal'. WTF with all the illnesses though? You Canooks better stop cross breeding with the penguins or it'll be the ruin of you!! Thanks for keeping up on it in the light of things. It'll happen and I doubt anyone is concerned. Eager, yes!

Dowser Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 (edited) Any update on this? Yep, I was going to post up here tomorrow night to let everyone know, I received word from the freight holdng company that the package has arrived and that I can go pick it up. That will be the test piece that has to be fitted and sent back with the final adjustments. I'll be in the states this weekend so I'll pick it up then and have pictures hopefully on Monday at the latest Tuesday. Again, this is just a mock up for the gauges to make sure the fitment is good because they don't have a Pathfinder to try it out in, but things should happen pretty quickly after that process gets finished and the piece gets sent back to them. No Cash has been sent to them yet. It's all still sitting in my Paypal account with the exception of a couple that had sent me checks, Paypal requires 6 business days for the transfer to occur and that has not yet lapsed. Regardless, Not a big deal since the company accepted to send us the mock up without payment so we're still doing fine. I know this is freaking slow guys, but remember that most of it was trying to commit everyone and get the cash sorted out. In essense its only been about 3 weeks since I received all the cash even though this project started way back. I've been slow on sending out a mass email. I've been meaning to get around to that. There just seems like theres always something that has to be done and I completely forget that I need to get one out. I'll make time after this weekend and get something out to everyone, or at least on here. I haven't even updated the other sites in ages either. At any rate. More to come soon I promise.

Dowser Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Alright everyone. I picked up the trim piece on Monday. It is not much too look at at this point. Its literally just some pods screwed to the trim. I took some pictures but when I went to transfer them to the PC, the adapter I use to fit the Camera Card to the Computer via USB is acting up. The PC can't find it. So I'll be heading off to the local Dollar Store to pick another up, then you guys can take a peek. I haven't fit it to the Pathfinder yet either to test fit it. My rig has been sitting at Garage about 20 minutes from here. I'll be getting to all this shortly though. Pictures and remember, this is a very rough mock up, just to get fitment. They assure me the final product will be smooth and clean. I'm a little annoyed though. We'll absolutely be able to keep the tweeter for sure. The whole process of taking votes, and all the work it was to organize who was for what style, yadda yadda, was basically for nothing. We'll be able to have 3 gauges and the tweeter for sure I think. Hard to show without hte photo's. I'll get that adapter pronto. Just wanted to let everyone know I actually have something to look at now at least, so we're getting there.

tmoore4512 Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Hey I am stoked... Looking forward to having the only A pillar gauge pod in a Nissan in my area! Hahahaha.... Could care less about the tweetage tho... Hows the daughter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dowser Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Hows the daughter? She's recovered fully now and tearing around at full speed ahead. She was a lot easier to manage when she was so out of it really. hahaha. She just started walking about a month and a half 2 months ago so she already thinks she's got it down and basically tries running everywhere. problem is she has absolutely no concept of self preservation and stairs, table corners, heavy objects on tables, etc, she bee lines straight for them. She's obsessed with danger already. Greeeeeat. So happy she back to herself though. That was one scary time for us. Thanks for asking. So here's a couple pics of what they've sent. Again, keep in mind, this is only for fitment and placement. You'll also note that the 3 pods are comprised of 2 pieces. I'm pretty sure that they originally were only going to put 2 pods on it with the tweeter, so they mocked it up with a singe piece with double pods. Later on, I called them up and informed them the 3 pods is what everyone wanted and I think they just popped another on there to get fitment stuff. At any rate, on with the show.

Precise1 Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 I'm glad your daughter is up, about and focused on maiming herself. Well, you know what i mean... Cool, looks like crap, how does it fit? I know, I know, it's just the fitment mock-up. Hell, we are closer than ever before!! B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
