i think it's a good idea. some ppl have kids and sometimes you might close it and not realize something is blocking the path and this way nothing gets broken. my bmw moonroof has this feature- ie if any object is obstructing the path of it closing, it senses it and re-opens as a fail safe. ie kinda like a kid-safe garage door. :)

Then you should get one from RR for your 8. That way we'll only need 1 more person.

Detrich 03-12-2008 02:27 PM

lol... i would. but i am a "mod-o-phobe." :) if i mess with it, it's sure to break or get scratched, dinged, or damaged. that's my luck.

Come on people, one more and we get the 15 people Rasp needs to start making these :)

xsnipersgox 03-12-2008 03:42 PM

how exactly is the fail safe working? you added a sensor? if so that would get expensiveeee.. and i'd just take one without the fail safe.

It's current sensing. Anyway, I still wouldn't want to get my finger caught in it. Just like I wouldn't want to stick my hand out my Lexus' auto up windows. If someone is honestly worried about getting injured, don't buy it. I take no responsibility if someone gets hurt.

if he does it's because he's a Dee Dee Dee and he deserves it.

PMed zoom44 about GB fees.

paulmasoner 03-13-2008 01:03 AM

RR, i am buying one. I have been very absent from here lately but will make a point to log in to check my PM and this thread for this item.

Registered Sex Offender Approved!!

Rotary Rasp 03-13-2008 01:34 PM

In the process of getting a group buy approval.

IMPORTANT UPDATE

Today, I checked the auto close sunroof in my Infinity. The Infinity's sunroof will stop and auto reverse automatically with something as sensitive as a finger obstructing its path.

My circuit is not that sensitive. It will stop if you get your fist or arm stick in its path, but I'm pretty sure it would still seriously hurt your finger. Also, it doesn't automatically reverse. For this reason, I will keep what minor protection I have already developed, but I cannot state that it has a failsafe feature.

Please update the list if you no longer want to be included in the initial group buy.

Zephyrzone 03-13-2008 02:14 PM

I still want that sucker! I don't stick things up out of my sunroof and if any of my friends are dumb enough to do it then they deserve it.

Thats RR, I'm looking forward to this mod!
