MX-3 Door Conversion

Post by wyldside »

I am just curious on how many people would be interested in getting a vertical door conversion kit for the MX-3. I'm currently working on a prototype version and would like to know if it would be worth my time to manufacture a large consignment for Mazda MX-3s. I plan to make kits for other vehicles as well, but I am starting with the MX-3.

If you make it so it's "almost" a complete bolt-on, you'll probably sell lots.<p>However, many people shy away from this sort of thing if there is any cutting involved.<p>I'd be interested.<p>~A

I'm still pricing out materials and manufacturing costs. It should be a lot less than the other kits on the market. I know a lot of DECHA civic kits go for about $1600 USD. That's pretty high if you ask me.
