Oh and WiseSports doesn't have a pic of the cutoff.

Are you awaiting an answer on this from wise sports? I don't understand why these would be any different. I want in on this GB, but I don't want to end up spending all this money just to blind a cop... ya know. In other words, please convince me I won't have a problem lol.

Exclamation Updated list

Ramy I think it's easy enough to find your name on the list and confirm that you are recorded for the correct item and since that's the only reason for the list I don't think there's any point to formating it a different way. But if you want to collect the info, then you of course could choose how the list is formatted.

1) We will most likely be extending the deadline for order acceptance since Ramy is still working on getting pics of the lighting pattern and answering other misc questions. The new deadline will be determined soon.

2) I am considering opening a basic paypal account since so many people seem determined to save that 3% but still want to use paypal . This would only save the 3% for those that did direct bank transfers, NO credit cards, or other payments can be accepted by this account (credit card can still be accepted by my other account that charges 3%). Nothing certain yet, but I'll keep you guys posted on what I decide.

Thank you for the reply and the time to put this together Jason and Ramy!


The paypal issue is because it is a fairly fast and easy way to feel secure and keep easy records (and it can provide coverage of items) the direct deposit is because it does add up for each transaction. Some of us use it a lot, and just tend to keep using it as it saves a considerable amount of money over time. It can easily cover shipping at times, and why pay more for something if you don’t have to! Call me cheap but that’s MY $ 0.03 literally

Again thanks for the effort putting these things together for the community!

Is there a chance we could take the time to research the topic (would people be interested), and test the differences in lenses that are available? So that we could get something that works well instead of something that we HOPE works well?

Would people here be willing to have the guys (if they would be willing) order each of the different lenses both here and on ebay and test them to see what kind of dispersion, refraction and optics can come out of the lenses with the HID kits that are available? And of course just add it to the GB tab.

Those are the big questions that I see, is what are they going to look like in comparison to everything else out there.

It seems like a waste if they don’t produce the kind of lighting we all HOPE they will.

From reading HID BBs the guys there seem to feel that HID retrofit bulbs or PnP (plug n play) kits are a waste of money and time, as well as being bad news for the drivers having to be blinded by the glare and bad optics.

Would people here be interested in proven solution rather than hoping for this to work out?

I am sick of the stock lighting and have been avoiding the issue as there really hasn’t seemed to be any good solution yet.

This seems to be a good place if your interested in the topic: http://hidplanet.com/forums/index.php


Ultimately this is what we are really hoping for

Exclamation Update

Just to keep everyone in the loop, Ramy is still waiting on a response from Wise Sports. The GB will be closing this Friday 11:59pm PST. If we still haven't heard back from Wise Sports then we ask that you make your decision based on the information available, but hopefully we'll have something from them soon.

Regarding Paypal; I've decided against the second paypal account, because there is a possibility paypal will close both accounts if they see that it's linked to the same bank account and name. Sorry guys, but there are alternative methods of payment if you don't want to pay the paypal fee.

So to reiterate...

*GB ends 2/17/06 11:59 PM PST
*Paypal will have to pay the 3%

Exclamation Payment Info

PLEASE READ THIS POST CAREFULLY!

I will start accepting payments today and will continue to accept them until 2/24/06 11:59 PM PST.


How much?

Since the specific numbers for portion of shipping from Japan and individual shipping are unknown there will be two seperate payments. Right now we will accept payments for just the product and once the shipping totals are known we will take payment on those (this will not be until we have the lights and give accurate quotes). So right now you just have to pay for the lights.

Totals if using paypal direct transfer:

Complete HID kit - $623.71
Lenses/Housings - $180.41

Totals if using paypal e-check (I must have a pending transfer by the deadline):

Complete HID kit - $610
Lenses/Housings - $180

Totals if using Cashiers Check or Money Order:

Complete HID kit - $605
Lenses/Housings - $175

Where?

Paypal Address: bladesoxy2@yahoo.com

Mailing Address:

Jason Sattar
1014 Stanford
Irvine, CA 92612


Let me know if you guys have any questions.
