Thanks to everyone who has participated in this GB, I really appreciate the enthusiasm everyon has shown. Now let's get those other 13 orders in and make Rob some money (oh, and make sure we get the deal on the Silblades ).
Thanks again to EVERYONE!
Ken
Outstanding....!
I might be able to have the slider installed by late next week...!!
Since we've hit the minimum 10 PAID sliders, anyone ordering from now on won't have to wait for their sliders to be shipped.....
Rob a Truckininsyle.com emailed me and has some more good news: He has changed the requirements for the Silblade deal (used to be a 20 order min. in the Powr-Slider) and is making it available to anyone that orders a Powr-Slider. For those that have ordered Silblades already, they are on their way!
Rob has also shipped all of the orders he received before yesterday. Check your email for tracking numbers!
Glad you guys got the 10 paid already, Some random things came up so i have to wait for friday to place my order. Not going to do me a whole lot of good with temps in the negatives already. It's going to be a cold winter....
OK folks....for those of you that already have or will have (soon) a CR Laurence Power Slider in your Tundra and may want to undertake the modification to install an OEM Toyota Factory Power Rear Sliding Window Switch in lieu of the switch that comes with the CR Laurence unit, I have finally finished putting together instructions and they have have been posted (with the assistance of nhparrot...) in the "Members Modifications" Forum.
Still on the fence on this one but just curious to know if any of the 21 who are going to buy this unit have a sunroof? I do (and use it as much as I can) and I'm not sure if I would use the rear power slider that much to justify the $500.00+ cost of it. I do have time to think about it though. Who ever gets theirs installed first I would like to see some pics of the inside and outside to compare it to the factory look. Thanks LARRY

Bill thanks for going to all that trouble. That will REALLY help those of us choosing to install the stock switch. I checked the instructions out and they are AWESOME!
Thanks again Bill,
Funny dealer story abouth the OEM switch. I did not want to wait for delivery if I at the link you guys provided. So I called my local dealer to see if they had it. They said no but could order for $75 not including the housing! Needless to say I orderd from Claremont. Thanks to Claremont Toyota saving me some cash.

I'm telling you guys Matt isTHE MAN. I mean it is awesome that we are getting a great buy on the sliders, but getting REALLY GREAT prices on OEM parts is definitely the cherry on the cake.

I am really hoping that we can reach twenty orders. Granted, nothing is in it for us at this point, but I would like to see us make the GB worthwhile for Rob at truckininstyle. I know the margin was pretty small on the slider sale, so hopefully we can make up for it with volume.
Anyway, If you have't already, take advantage of the great price on the Powr-slider and Silblades through our Group Buy.
Thanks!
...... UPS has scraped the crap out of the end of the slider..
The end piece of the box was torn away and somehow the end of the slider was scraped down to the metal..... The box also had a couple of holes in it........And I'm only 20 miles away from CRL.....
At least UPS is consistent w/beating up boxes.. We use to send high dollar broadcast equipment thru them but about 2 out of 10 crates always had damage.... We now use FEDEX and the damage is down to 1 out of 10 now...
I've sent Rob/vendor an e-mail about this......
Did I mention that I'M PISSED.....
Hope everyone who ordered a slider is there to inspect for damage right away.... JB

I wouldn't worry about it too much. You are close to the facility, so turnaround should be quick. I know it is a bummer (trust me, been there many times), but Rob will take care of you, don't worry. Keep your chin up little buckaroo.
I wonder if Rob can swing a 'Will Call' pick up since I drive right near the facility on the way to work.....
Once the end piece is off, the slider can slide right out of the box.... Which it looks like it did and someone just slid it back in after it got scraped....
I was hoping to have the slider installed before I back to work Thursday night... But Oh well..... JB
