Good job on the seat release market opening up for you. I think I'd rather use it as a tool, versus having it mounted.

I love the added security of having to cram your wrist down the seat to open it. Keeps me at ease regarding my amp and clean sweep being stolen.

However, I'm clearly the minority.

Wow! I think I hit a nerve with the bracket idea!!!

I should have no trouble making up more.

Post a few pics of the different variations of the latch mechanisms. My 2011 is different than my buddies 2009. The 2011 only requires a simple hole and a push-nut to retain the part. The 2009 needs the slot due to a mushroom style head on the latch. Seems like $5 a pair and I can even include the push-nut and postage....? Should this be moved to a new thread???

$10 IMO would be fair to the buyer and more worth while for you to go into production.

Just my $.02.

Default I have posted this before

But not in this thread. $45 for the hooks from a member and $4 for the bolts, so I just made it under $50.

The scary part was cutting the holes but it turned out ok

Not that I really need them, but I've been wanting to add some to my truck. Looks good. Was the cutting easy to do and lineup? Can you give a close up shot of the cut/hole?
