I want to buy the taillights seen on the CTD site which are Red and Clear. Any one know of a source here in the states for these lights? I know of one company which claimed to sell them for $235 to your door, but the rep has not been getting (or responding to) my requests.

 

KerMini, this isn't a direct answer, but...just wanted to make sure you knew that CTD will ship to the U.S. I recently bought pedal covers from their website and their service was good. Shipping charges are higher than what you'd pay a U.S. shop, but for a U.S. customer, CTD will deduct the 16% value-added tax that is build in to the prices shown on their site, so that helps cut the cost a bit. :smile:

 

Thanks JMB1 I was wondering if anyone had ordered from them. I was apprehensive about ordering due to dealing with a foreign country, credit cards and end up paying $300 for a $25 item. So you had a good experience and $$$ for shipping was the only issue. They have some nice stuff that I want but wanted to hear from someone that had ordered.

 

Yup - it was no problem. They take credit cards, and my credit card company applied a standard exchange rate...no surprises. Also, CTD sent me a nice e-mail explaining the actual cost to me in euros, after adding shipping and subtracting the VAT.

 

I'd give Promini/BMP design a call, they had the lights you were talking about on one of their test cars. Here's their webiste: http://www.promini.com

edit: sorry, i thought you were referring to the Euro gen III lights...
