If they do decide to make another one. They should consider having it integrated into the factory piece that is normally there so that there is no need for those ugly retainer springs...

To update, I haven't heard a word from Blake....I would imagine he's heard something from the Postal Service by now??? And I too still want one of these covers....there has got to be another vendor somewhere....if I had the means to produce these I would....

I ordered one on 3/18/08.
Emailed him a week ago and got a reply that it was overlooked and
will go out soon, but as of now, still waiting.

If your attention is on that part of the dash -- you're not driving hard enough to need the shift light

I probably don't need the JCW shiftlight on my non-S Cooper.

I emailed Blake a second time on 5/5/08, got an apologetic email within 24 hours,
and received my vent cover today (5/8/08) by priority mail.
I like it.
Just in time for warmer weather.
