You pay in Europe about 19-21% in tax plus shipping then convert that from Euros to US dollars. It is way more than $5000. I am just saying..

Whether you go with OE, Cargraphic, or (AHEM!) Speedriven, you don't want to mix-and-match parts and create a mutt car. If anything happens down the road, everyone points their finger and places blame on the next guy (especially when you're dealing with someone who doesn't have a shop or employees or a dedicated location - a larger company like Cargraphic will point right to that and shy away from any kind of responsibility, and who can blame them? There is ZERO real-world testing of their hardware with tat software and they can't be expected to warranty their stuff with unknown fuel mixes and other variables, you know?).
If you're going with Cargraphic, go all-in. Negotiate on price if you have to, but stick to a package as sold by 1 vendor. Mixing-and-matching is a great way to save a few hunderd $ early on, and cost yourself thousands later.

Please check the prices again : http://www.cargraphic.de/index.php?/...,5386/&start=3
I'll get a quote within this weekend and let you know.
I'm probably telling something wrong with the 'terms' ( headers etc... ) as english is not my native language
Please excuse me on this.
