Arrow GB: Wise Sports FD HID kit/Clear lenses

Ryan, I tried to contact you by pm and email before starting this thread, but didn't receive a response. Please PM me if there's a problem.

This group buy is for the Wise Sports HID kit/clear lenses for the FD RX-7. You can purchase just the clear lense housings or the entire HID kit.

Some info on the kit: https://www.rx7club.com/non-classifieds-violations-59/new-diamond-cut-clear-lense-headlight-fd3s-502400/

I will be handling the name and payment collection. Ramy (FDNewbie) will be handling product info and pricing. Please direct your questions accordingly.

Payment info: I'll accept Cashiers Check, Money Order, and Paypal. Paypal is preferred since it is instant and safe. ***Please be aware, I will not be responsible for lost or stolen MO/CC.

Cut-off: We will accept orders for 1 week, so the cut-off will be 2/13/06. After the cut-off I will pm you your total and post my paypal and mailing address. You will have 1 week to get me payment, or else you will be dropped from the group buy.


If you wish to participate in the group buy I will need the following info sent to me via PM:


1) Your forum username
2) Your real name
3) Your shipping address
4) Your payment method (paypal will have to pay the extra 3%)
5) Whether you want the complete HID kit, OR just the clear lenses



Pricing details will be posted by Ramy soon.

Exclamation Update

List of those that I've received a pm from:

allenhah (pending question) - lenses
WolfpackFD3S - lenses
RX7 RAGE - HID kit
GOTBANNED? - lenses

Since Ramy hasn't posted prices yet this isn't set in stone and anyone can withdrawl if they change their mind when they see the prices .

Just to make it clear, the complete HID kit comes with lenses.

Those looking to pay with credit card can do so through paypal.

In the linked thread a US dealer quoted $707 + shipping for the HID kit, and $210 + shipping for the lenses, I know it will be cheaper then that.

Ramy informed me he was having computer troubles, but said he would do his best and get the prices up tonight.

Sorry guys...I lost EVERYTHING...my laptop didn't exactly make it w/ me in one piece on the way to IL... but IIRC, the lenses were gonna run $175, and the lenses + HID were gonna run $605. Shipping should be real cheap as I'll be consolidating everything into one or two large shipments, and my Fedex Ground account will allow me to ship the parts domestically to ya, fully insured, for cheap as well... but I won't know the final shipping price until the order is complete.

Sorry, but that's all I have now. I'll try and check back on this thread ASAP...

Ramy,
When you said the lenses is $175, is it just the lenses or include the housing as well? I want it if it is housing and lenses, not just lenses.
Somehow in my mind all I can think is that it is just really for the lenses. So we still have to open up the housing and the lenses. And then have to re-assemble them and epoxi the together.

Thanks
Daniels

Not sure, but by the pictures it looks like it is the whole housing not just the lense itself.

The description from Wisesports site lists the item as "super clear reflector." It shows a picture of a complete housing and describes the item as a clear lense with a revised reflector.

1) HID kit includes the lenses/reflector housings, so...

For complete kit (which includes the housings/lenses) - $605 + (portion of group shipping from Japan) + (individual shipping cost to your location) + (rx7club group buy fee if applicable)

For just the lenses/housings - $175 + (portion of group shipping from Japan) + (individual shipping cost to your location) + (rx7club group buy fee if applicable)

2) From Wise Sports "The HID the H4 type 6000K (Kelvin) HI / LO change type high & low both are the HID."

3) We'll get back to you with an estimate.

Yes they are still for H4 bulbs.

a) Description above should clarify.

b) They are designed for RHD cars (lighting is slightly aimed towards the left side of the road vs. the right side of the road on LHD cars), but I'd assume the differences are minor and the lenses are described as having an "optical axis of adjustment."

1) See pics...
2) Yes, sorry I only have a premier account

I'm attaching more pics of the complete kit (what's included) (pic 2), and the lenses/housings (pic 3)...

I ask that all inquiries from here on out be only serious ones and if you want your name removed after seeing the prices please pm me.

Cool...thanks for the responses! I'm not sure if this was answered, but I'm assuming it's a complete bolt on kit?

I'm definitely in. Let us know how you would like for us to send payment. Is there any other way to pay you than via PayPal to avoid the 3% fee?

It includes a housing that appears to bolt right up. The HID system is just finding a place to install it out of the way. I will inquire to confirm this though.
