[DMCForum] DMCH Parts (WAS: digital speedo)

["malevy_nj" <malevy_nj@xxxxxxxxx>]

There seems to be a trend that is disturbing.  DMCH is spending time 
and money to develop replacement parts that are already available 
from other vendors.  For instance, the fuel sender was already 
available from Zilla.  And now the angle drive, when reconditioned 
units are available from PJGrady.

Given the choice of what item to work on next, would it not make more 
sence to work on a item that is truly unavailable?  The fuse box is a 
great example.  There are a good number of DeLoreans out there with 
frankenstien fuse blocks, that would love to have a "New and 
improved" origional looking fuse block.

It is no secret that some of the NOS parts that other vendors need 
ultimatly come from DMCH.  It's a shame that not only does DMCH keep 
the parts that only they have artificaly high, but they also have to 
try and under cut any item the other vendors dont buy from them.  A 
controled amount of greed is good in business, but too much of 
anything is never a good thing.
