Group buy on 2003 Tailights for S or CL

Hey guys,

I have about 15 people right now and we're doing a group buy here in the Bay Area CA on the 2003 Tail lights for $125.00 (hopefully lest if we can get more people) (excluding applicable CA sales tax of 8.25% if you're in CA). Shipping is extra but if anyone on the board is within a 50 mile radius, I will bring it to their door and help them install it if they want. These tailights have that extra plastic pin and bolt removed for a simple screw on install. Please let me know by sending me a PM

Thanks.

$125 each or $250 for both sides. Right now I have 17 and I need eight more people to bring the price down to $120.00 per side or $240.00 for both sides. Please PM me if you are interested. Thanks, guys.

if u really want them, just go get them for retail at 155$ each, if you are driving around in a 90,000$ vehicle, i dont think 50$ should make you wait for weeks to do a group buy. Its not that expensive of an upgrade. Ansson, does the new light fit perfectly (electronically) into the 2000 S-class?

Tomorrow is the last day for the 2003 Tailight orders and I'll begin shipping them out next week so people should have them late next week or early the following week if they're on the East Coast. Also, these lights will have that extra plastic peg and screw removed so all you have to do is remove the four washer nuts to remove the old and do the reverse to put them in place. If anyone needs help they can PM me and/or call me for help. It's really, really simple.

The lights electronically fit perfectly onto the 2000-2002 connectors. No problems whatsoever.

I got the upgrade today to the 2003 taillights. I have a 2001 S500 Blk/Blk. All I can say is WOW! The car looks great.

Cost - Dealer did the change for me (did not want any warranty issues) $439 Including Labor and Parts with a free car wash thrown in.

Now if Phil can get us the Headlight fix.

Nick,

I am just as anxious to get the headlights working as you are. I have $2400 worth of headlights in front of me and can't use them (yet)! They look hella nice so hopefully my guy will have an answer by thursday. Working on it as we speak. I'll keep you guys updated.

Phil

Ha ha ha ha,


For the first time in a long time I am leaving the worrying up to someone else. I know that you are working hard trying to get the things to fit.
