Just a thought, but why not just go with the LED strip that Aznoptics has?

I'm working with a sales manager at the moment from JONARI to see if I can get us a deal. I'll let you know what I find out.

------

Well.... JONARI is the US Importer... How I understood it they source to Vivid Racing and "from what I can gather" with duties, taxes, import fees and shipping... the $550 shipped quote from Vivid Racing is very reasonable. Another aspect was brought to my attention about warranty... If we could by chance get these for cheaper, shipped direct I'm almost positive that there wouldn't be any type of warranty offered on the product. You would get what you get and that would be that. With purchasing through US Vendor there would be someone to call and have sort out issues and stand behind the product. I dont know what the best play is here but I'm just relaying what I've come to find out after speaking to JONARI on the telephone.

Believe me man.. I'm for the better deal. But after figuring all the associated import fees and taxes... and without warranty. I don't really see it getting much better. Wish... and hope Im wrong.

Not sure if this has been brought up since I didn't read the whole thread but there is always the option of using Jesse Streeter. With enough purchased it should be worth it.

$550 shipped and insured, half up front other half due when they arrive stateside. So really you will have about a month to pay in full which is a nice option in my opinion

Sorry but what makes these LED's worth the $550? I'm a novice hence i'm questioning.

Also seems that no one wants to buy these at the price that is being quoted by you. :S

Look at these and look at the ones you suggested..they provide a factory look with high LEDs. Not saying they are worth $550 but personally the look in comparison to the factory fogs make them worth it. You get what you pay for 9/10 times.

I don't have the 63 conversion or 63 for that matter but I'm surprised that nobody has done a MacGyver job cleanly with 3M double-sided tape and maybe a couple resistors and a stock bumper fog insert? I've seen tons of LEDs on car ID.....just saying even though I shouldn't be because I don't have the sixth To the tree

What do you do with the hole left by the fog light then?

I have an account on yahoo japan, I can buy it for those who really wants a set. Just need 50% deposit if you are serious and it takes about two weeks to a month to arrive.
I'm not a vendor nor selling for profit, matter of fact you can do it your self! Just get you an account through yahoo japan and type in "wald w211" all kinds of wald items will pop up.


Just trying to help out
