Group Buy: JDM GE8 Goodies - R/L/RS Taillights etc
Anyone interested in getting JDM tail-lights for their GE8? I so happen to be staying in Tokyo for 2 weeks so I cna stop by a Honda Dealership and order them.
In fact, I just ordered a pair of GE8 tailights (JDM Type L) for my buddy from a Honda dealership in Ikebukuro and will be picking them up tomorrow afternoon.
Since I am only buying one set, with the exchange rates today, the set cost somewhere between 300-320 USD. However, ff we have enough people supporting a group buy, I may be able to do a bulk purchase (cost less per unit??) while I am in Japan and ship them back to my home in Canada and then redistribute it.
Again, just testing water... but if theres enough interest, we can make it happen =)
FYI - JDM Type G/L tail-lights are non-LED; Type RS is LED.
I will update the est shipping price to Canada tomorrow... then we cna work out how much the lamps will cost.
Sidenote: I can also get JDM Hazard light switch, auto climate control, MIrror casing with LED AND Folding mirrors.
Not really going to recommend Folding mirrors cos the assembly itself is near 1100 USD, not to mention tax and shipping... May as well wait for AJR where they have better purchasing power thus lower price.

One sidenote: I CANNOT GET ANYONE A FWD Fit or the GLASS ROOF Assembly... its beyond my purchasing power... not to mention that there is NO WAY I can EMS that thing... I can only buy small JDM accessories... anything hardcore - go to AJR @@

I'm surprised it's this easy to buy parts....from what I recall Honda japan is pretty anal about just selling parts to anyone, i.e., they ask for a VIN number before they'll sell you stuff? Maybe it's just dependent on the dealership....
#16
But once they gain teh confindence in you and feel taht you know what you are dong, they are super supportive.
I was even offered a ice coffee and a slice of cake - free - when i was discussing parts order with the parts chief (aka masterchief from his colleagues). I dun remember the last time I have a free drink offered to me in North America... a hot coffee cost a dollar =\

Seems like there isnt much interest on GE stuff other than small items like Emblems or switches...??
If you guys are still interested, please singup below:
eg: username // parts wanted
I'll work out the pricing for the lights and see if theres any group buy discount... best I can try is lower it by 40 bucks maybe?? @@

UPDATED APR 15/09 - Check BLUE words:
ATTENTION~!! I GOT THE PRICES FROM HONDA DEALERSHIP TODAY. PRICES ARE LISTED BELOW AND FIRM:
======================
NON-LED TAIL-LIGHTS (FOR TYPE G / L):
USD 280 / PAIR
LED TAIL-LIGHTS (FOR TYPE RS):
USD 380 / PAIR
3RD CLEAR LED BRAKE LIGHT:
USD 220 / EACH
JDM SIDE MIRROR COVERS WITH LED:
USD 175 / PAIR
RED HONDA EMBLEM (FRONT / REAR):
USD 85 / SET
RS EMBLEM:
USD 20
JDM HAZARD SWITCH:
USD 30
===================
Order Deadline is Thu Apr 16 @ 1800 / 6PM PST to make a decision (Fri @ 1000 Japan Time). I need to set up a deadline because it may take the dealership 2-3 days to get everything IF ITS A BIG ORDER.
If you want anything, please help me out by sending me a PM in the following format:
REAL Name:
Shipping Address:
EMAIL Address:
Items needed - Unit price :
Total Amt$:
This will help me sort out who needs what and how much to invoice via paypal (will add 3% due to paypal policy - its not my call =\). Like I said, I do this not for profit, but because my buddy wants some GE stuff and I so happen to be in Japan, I may as well do everyone on FF a favor.
So, once again, I will add 5% Japan Sales Tax and 3% Paypal Fee to the TOTAL AMT when you make the purchase.
There is no shipping fee as of yet. If we have a lot to ship, I will bulk ship everything back to Vancouver BC and then we go from there. Splitting shipping fee among everyone is cheaper than charging seperately anyway.
Have fun and PM if you have any questions~
Want to thank me? Two ways: Donation for my time / service - I would REALLY appreciate it =D. Otherwise, +Rep will be nice too =)
