No problem. I've sent over $145.08 via paypal. Let me know how much extra shipping I owe you when you have them in hand and I'll send that over to you.

thanks,

These days, Ramy handles most of the items, but if the tow hooks came to me local pick up would be okay.

When is payment due by?

afterburn27 03-24-08 02:34 PM

Hopefully this isn't too offtopic...

Has anyone run into trouble sourcing the factory rear tie down that is used to mount the FEED rear tow hook? Apparently the majority of the rear tie-downs were removed at port when the cars were imported (mine included). I called Trussville Mazda and Malone told me the part was discontinued... :(

su_maverick 03-24-08 03:08 PM

Talk to Ray @ Malloy and he can source them.

Good news, he was next on my calling list. lol

I'll update this thread with a part number and price after talking to Ray. :)

su_maverick 03-24-08 04:06 PM

Thanks, ask him how many he can get as I imagine alot of us will be calling him.

Scrub 03-24-08 04:12 PM

I don't have one either on my car.

su_maverick 03-24-08 04:35 PM

I think someone told me that they were around 20-25 bucks

billyboy 03-24-08 05:45 PM

Numbers for those tie-down hooks, at least on later cars....and can't imagine they would change over the series-

Front, FD01-56-221, FD01-56-231.

Rear, FD01-56-251B, FD01-56-252B.

Worth mentioning (may not apply in US though!), spec for track work over here is a tow hook with a minimum 40mm diameter eye. Those original ones from memory are basically a narrowish slot. May be OK for transport from Japan, but say a tow out of a gravel trap, you'd almost be assured of bodywork damage, front in particular because of their mounting position and resulting geometry of the tow line.

That's why everybody is buying these FEED tow hooks. :)


I couldn't get ahold of Ray today, but I'll try again tomorrow.

Ramy hasn't set a close date, I'm guessing because we need a minimum of 10 orders for a discount. So until that happens I wouldn't worry about the GB suddenly closing.

su_maverick 03-25-08 07:36 AM

so, we need 4 more payments for this thing to begin

When that happens, what would the ETA be on the hooks?

afterburn27 03-25-08 08:25 AM

Yup, Ray can get 'em for us.

Same part numbers as billyboy posted:

Factory rear tie downs: FD01-56-251B, FD01-56-252B

$24.51 each from Malloy (club price)

*edit* Thanks for letting me butt into this thread, I already have a set of tow hooks. :)

vel525 03-25-08 03:02 PM

wait, we need a front and rear one tie down? sorry, my car is not available for me to look :D

To mount the rear FEED tow hook you will need a driver's side factory rear tie down. For whatever reason, many cars had this rear tie down removed when they were imported to the USA. Ray said that there are driver and passenger side OEM tie downs available, the part numbers are listed above.

The OEM front tie downs are NOT required to mount the front FEED tow hook.

su_maverick 03-25-08 04:00 PM

Just get the rear driver side. That is all you need.

vel525 03-25-08 07:03 PM

thanks for the clarification.

FDZero 03-25-08 09:55 PM

I'll make payment this weekend - is it even possible to request for red hooks?

su_maverick 03-25-08 10:03 PM

just spray them. that is what everyone does. They only come in black.

FDZero 03-25-08 10:06 PM

^ Easy enough. Ha.

magicjc 03-25-08 10:12 PM

Will I able to sue the front toe hook w/ a GReddy FMIC and C-West front Bumper?I'm not sure how the tow hook could be accessed....

We can ask, but I'd enter the GB assuming you're getting a black tow hook, just like the previous GB.

Black is fine. I'll just paint it if red not available. Thanks for looking into it.

Group Buy - FEED Tow Eyes
 
Hi,

It looks like this GB is still open and I'd like to get in on it.

I am in England UK.
Like Enfiniste, I will pay up the $145.08 now and pay the additional shipping cost when you let me know.
Please note that we pay tax at about 25% on imported goods from the USA. So please don't inflate the cost of the goods on the customs declaration.
Going the other way is better.

Thanks for organising this GB

I doubt it can be done w/o cutting a hole in the bumper.

su_maverick 04-03-08 08:12 AM

BlueRex (Jason) has yet to set an end date for when all payments must be in now that we have the required 10 paid participants so you still should have time. Once he sets it make sure you get your money in on time because its not fair for the rest of us to wait on you.

Thanks!

BobfisH 04-03-08 01:25 PM

Hi,

Im in the UK - let me know how much shipping is and i'll settle up the extra.

Guys I have also paid for the tow hooks...let me know if it didnt go through...as far as I know it has.

thanks

su_maverick 04-04-08 04:57 PM

Golden- wait for bluerex to confirm the payment. He hasnt confirmed anything for anyone since you last posted so you are still fine. He is the only one who can confirm these.

lockwood77 04-05-08 10:25 AM

Paid for these, delivery to UK required so please advise of extra shipping cost as per the other UK guys.

Gonna risk it with the C-West bumper, looking at pics I think it will work (rear will be fine anyway). :)
