Projector Headlights for Gen 1-1.5 Solara Updated 22 May 05
by Paladin06Greg » Thu May 12, 2005 11:37 am
I have updated this message to include the list of potential buyers.
How Many of you would be interested in the above. JoeB and I have been working this and I've had contact with one of the potential vendors today. Cost will depend on the size of the group buy. Please respond yes or no.
The vendors e-mail is below.
Now the problem is not whether to carry this item or not. It's that the manufacturer doesn't make those and it's most likely due to insufficient demand from owners of Toyota. The fixed cost for developing a brand new set of headlights is very high and the manufacturers won't do it unless they can see the market demand. How many sets can you get for a group buy? I'll forward the info to the venders.
Thought I would make one list on the initial post. Make sure I got your name included. Not sure how to do this but we should indicate if you're Gen 1 or 1.5. Just PM me and update this list.
