Why not find out how much we'll get knocked off?  I can't imagine it being much.   Plus it will take weeks to set up and get everyones interest then money, then an order, then distribution...

I'm really impatient if you hadn't noticed and if I decide I want a set, i'll probably order them straight away.  (it was a painful 16 weeks wait for the car by the way LOL)

All I'm waiting on is a picture from VW speed to confirm they are the correct ones and not some chavvy saxo style ones.  I've read up on these a lot in the past few weeks and am confident I have the know how to fit them.  I have a fully regged VAG COM too.

I'm glad my topic has gained some momentum / enthusiasm, but I agree, lets no muck about with a group buy, too much hassle, for I can imagine is a small reduction.

Let just confirm that they are genuine VW, which he assures me they are and they don't throw up fault codes!

that is a very very good point, but we all know how penny pinching VW are!

you are of course right and I did ask him for the part numbers last week and he was cagey.  I have re emailed and asked the the vw part numbers, see what he comes back with?

maybe they are in fact like these?:

....Those eBay ones are American - Note the fog lens being on lefthand not righthand.

If this VWSpeed dealer is being cagey, it's not a good sign. And why no pic? I won't buy without sight of goods. I'm gonna phone tomorrow too.

just found this on the web

http://www.bubbleshare.com/album/253405/overview#9166038

they might call them OEM on the pics, but in fact looks like they are made by someone called IN PRO

it says no VAG COM programming required, but that may just be for US cars.

No group buy demand then? The VAG com lead were cheaper... but I can see where you are coming from. We'd probably only get £10-20 off if that.  Unless me, Robin  and Teddy do our own 'bulk buy' and get 99p off  :grin: :grin: :grin:
