WRXMotorWorks 11-11-2002, 10:44 PM We will start shipping the next group buy using FedEx as they seem to be more careful. Money can be sent at anytime, first people to send payment will receive the lights in that order. I have no doubts 25 people will sign up. Even if 20 sign up, we will buy the other 5 sets. Gary WRX MotorWorks TCeezy 11-11-2002, 10:47 PM I think I'd be interested, does anyone know how much the PNP harness is, OR how hard are they to install without the plung and play harness? Subaruz 11-11-2002, 11:00 PM im really intrested in more of the RHD lights then the LHD ones because of the price, how much you think you can get the RHD ones for? and you think you can bring down the price a little more? like 800 shipped? i would be intrested.

There must be a lot of interest, but then they want to be the last couple entries so they DON'T WANT TO WAIT!!! If everyone don't act up or still have this kind of attitude... Then this Group buy will either takes forever or it will never happen!!! Guys, let's come together and you'll see how quick this Group buy can be establish. You'll get the lights quick because WRXmotorWorks have excellent customer service. Think about it guys, there are over 1700 visits already on this thread.

Ya ya I know its a group buy.. I may be traveling for my job sometime soon and I read that there will be no refunds or cancellations once payment is sent, so I can't commit right now :( But if it get gets close to the minimum 20 buyers, I'll jump in, or someone gimme a holler please!

JIN 11-25-2002, 01:48 PM Ok, let me try again. I want in, but how do I settle the payments man? Let me know? Can I send you a cheque instead? WRXMotorWorks 11-25-2002, 02:36 PM Payments can be send via paypal or check. Paypal price is $900, check/money order price is $875 Come on guys, send the payments in so we can order these lights. Gary WRX MotorWorks http://www.wrxmotorworks.com paultg 11-25-2002, 09:41 PM Gary, Your only allowed one GB at a time: See this tread if you haven't read it: Vendor Sticky w/GB rules (http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=241709) You can't bring up old buys and start over. Please let me know which GB you'd like to keep going. That thread will stay and the others will be removed. Paul G. JIN 11-25-2002, 10:38 PM Gary, so I will write a check to 'WRX MOTORWORKS' for USD $875 to you right? Let me know the address too and I will send out the cheque first thing tomorrow. If the lights are damaged in any way, can I exchange it? JIN 11-27-2002, 01:38 PM Hey Gary, Just talked to you over the phone. I have already sent out the cheque to you. Should recieve it in about a week's time I believe. Jin WRXMotorWorks 11-28-2002, 01:47 AM Thanks Jin. Comeon guys sign up now. Gary WRX MotorWorks http://www.wrxmotorworks.com WRXMotorWorks 12-01-2002, 12:04 AM Come guys sign up now! Have had numerous emails and this will be the final GB as the lights will not be in mass production anymore starting in February when the 2003 is released. $875 is below the MSRP in Switzerland. These lights are beautiful. Gary WRX MotorWorks http://www.wrxmotorworks.com Hamzor 12-01-2002, 06:12 PM are the plug n play harnesses ready to use? Are there any more modifications that have to be made to them? brentlz 12-02-2002, 12:15 AM Hamzor: The harness is available over at http://www.jimhoyd.com/ ... Or they will be when back in stock. Wiring diagram is available there too. Doesn't look too difficult to build (not sure how tough it will be to locate proper connectors). BTW: You know you want these headlights! Now off to find 14 to 19 more friends who must have them too :D Hamzor 12-02-2002, 01:00 AM I thought I read somewhere that those harnesses need some splicing... this true or are they all ready? pittkid333 12-02-2002, 08:26 AM They need to be spliced into the wiring on the lights...I dont think there is any "true" plug and play, and this is as close as it gets... Let's go guys...These aren't going to get any cheaper Hamzor 12-02-2002, 11:36 AM So these lights do not have connectors and need to be spliced to the harnesses? Also, is it possible to add HIDs to these lights? thanks! pittkid333 12-02-2002, 12:22 PM HID's are possible... There was a post on here at some point about the STi lights having an extra connector (4 connectors/plugs), whereas the USDM has only 3...So the STi has to have two of the beams spliced into one...In short the lights have connectors, but to fit USDM the hafta be spliced... :) BUY!BUY!BUY!:) WRXMotorWorks 12-02-2002, 12:24 PM Retail in Switzerland is 1224 CHF. So it works out to around $800.00. I don't know how much Germany charges.

Cheers- I want these lights and no others. I am also not thrilled by the no refund policy. I don't want to step on the toes of WRXmotorworks. I know how difficult and frustrating import/export can be. So, to get things moving I am proposing my services as an escrow agent. It would work something like this. Money Orders or certifed checks, payable to WRX Motorworks or their designee, are deposted in an escrow account under WRXmotorworks' tax ID #. I have an escrow account 'cuz I am a lawyer. The escrow agent will not release the money untill the escrow agreement terms are met. In this case enough people to satisfy the group buy. We could close the window on this by say the end of January 2003. This would be the only way to get your money back. Or WRXMotorworks could change its refund policy This is only a suggestion that I have made to do something other than plead with the rest of the people who have looked but not sent in their money. Please don't flame me too much. Hamzor 12-02-2002, 05:20 PM Does anyone where I can find a diagram that shows the splicing required to get the headlights to work with the "Plug n Play" harnesses? thanks mtb_dude 12-02-2002, 05:34 PM http://www.jimhoyd.com/ ;) pittkid333 12-02-2002, 08:35 PM Originally posted by D.

Not to speak for Gary, but I think that means that once all 25 are confirmed you can't back-out...(Not to be a flame)...The only thing I would suggest is a time limit...Maybe that would get everyone's butt in gear;) WRXMotorWorks 12-02-2002, 10:06 PM One addition to the list: 1. pittkid333 2. tymbrwolff 3. krex 4.

If that is not so, if I can get a refund if the GB does not come to fruitition, I will be calmed and will send my $. Did I misunderstand? LimeyWRX 12-03-2002, 10:10 AM Originally posted by D.

If you commit and the GB flops because of lack of people, Gary will either try and get a number of lights for the commited buyers or he will refund. What Gary means is once 25 have commited you can't back out or say you don't want them anymore, you've already paid and you will recieve lights, if you don't want them anymore then sell them on privatly. Gary is in business and does not rip people off, especially when nasioc.com is a majority of his buisness. Limey WRXerist 12-03-2002, 02:27 PM Put me down!

Especially when you are buying from another person that posted this GB on his first ever post and the only other person that backed him up just joined that day. Good Luck. Gary WRX MotorWorks kilyung 12-14-2002, 03:19 PM hey gary, no disrespect intended. i'm not trying to hijack your gb as that wouldn't be fair to the 10 guys already waiting patiently. i avoided mentioning any identifying remarks about the other gb other than price (which is in line with some of the other posts). besides, both prices are comparable. it's a question of how quickly i can get the lights. regardless, i think you're providing the group with a really great deal on a hard to find piece (which i had all intentions of joining) and am planning to buy from you in the future. as for the risk of dealing with the other guy (a nasioc vendor), it's all cc (using my Internet-only dedicated cc). :) best of luck, kilyung pittkid333 12-14-2002, 04:37 PM Originally posted by krex will the lights stil be ordered if the g/b is not 25 deep?:confused: Gary, any answers?:confused: mtb_dude 12-14-2002, 05:23 PM I don't know about anyone else, but this is a really bad time for this current GB. I can see the Christmas gift angle, but I think it's the opposite. Most people here are too busy buying gifts for other people and don't have money right now for these. (ie ME :) ) If this GB does end on Dec 31st, wlil there be another in a month or so? I'd love to jump in on this, but the timing is sooo bad for me.

Personally, I am getting tired. I pay in a timely manner, I dont think it is too terrible to expect to receive my products in the same way. Gary, I am not flaming you or trying to give you a hard time, but I really did expect for this to take this long. It was an impulse purchase and gosh darn it....this is killing the fun of it :) I still have much luv for you tho gary.

Spoke to US Customs today and they stated they have located 4 sets of lights that they have been holding mixed up in another shipment. They said i should have them by weeks end.
