Canadian MP3 Owners

[CANMP3]

If any canadian MP3 owners have the clear tail lights or the carbon ones, could you please tell me the best way to get them (I mean cheapest). The performance shop in Halifax wants to charge me $450 +TAX. I know there must be a better way to do this.
I know ordering off of NOPI is an option but what would the total cost come to (dutys n stuff). And how reliable is it to buy online. Would i get any warranty or anything.

I am just concerned that I dont want to blow this much money on something that might not work.

Any comments related to this would be helpful.

My mazda dealership sells them for about $329 or something like that.... I mean it would be way cheaper for you to buy it from them and I can ship them to you....

I am Toronto...

This is something I've been wanting myself. the Canadian distribution for Nopi wanted to charge me $395.00 to me, but that's s/h included.

<JCSMP3> Where is you Mazda located, as I've got friends in TO that could pick them up for me

I just bought a set of Eurolite clear tail light last week, and I paid $280 canadian for the set. I live near Montreal and bought them at 'Pneu 5 Etoiles'... a french place, in english it sound like 'Five stars tire'.

I'm at the office right now and I don't have the phone number with me. If you want it to try to order it by phone, just let me know, I'll post it tonight.

I found the number at the office, it's (450)964-2246.

My dealership sells them for about as much as JC's dealership...mine Avante Mazda in Richmond Hill (just north of toronto)

 

[CANMP3]

JCSMP3, is that $329 Tax in?
I used to live in Newmarket for 7 years, so I also have some friends who could pick them up for me.

Stou, The Eurolite clear tail lights, are they 280 taxes in? Also what do they look like. Are they very similar to the APC lights? If you could post a pic it would help alot.

Thanks

Hey thanks guys, this is great. I'd also love to see some pics of those clear euros.

My best buddie lives in TO. I'll see if he can check for me. Thing is, his company just sent him to Australia, and then South Africa...so he won't be back until Feb

 

[KurtMP3]

[Newf]

OH, anotherthing. Were you guys getting that picture of the MP3 with MP3 heartless bastards on it?

I want the original. It's looks like it'd make a good wallpaper.

 

[Stou]

The $280 is without taxes, you have to add 15%... in Quebec, that make $322, taxes included.

They are exactly like the one on KurtMP3 car.

 

[CANMP3]

KurtMP3, The tail lights look good, I think they would look very good with my winter beaters as well. If you could check the reciept that would be awsome.

Newf, do you ever get over to Halifax? What i may be able to do is if the price is right I have friends that would be able to get them very soon and ship them over to me.(you two if you want them).

 

[Newf]

CANMP3:

Hey thanks for the offer, nice of ya man. I do want these tails, but I may hold off until Feb. anyhow. MY birthday is like Monday, so I'm waiting to see how much money <cough> I mean how many "cards" I get. Let me know if you get a total price later.

 

[KurtMP3]

Hey Newf if you want the pic I created and designed it after Mp3girly said something in one of the forums about caring more about her car than a cat that got hit by it, i said id be like that and the club was started

ENJOY!

Hey CANMP3 ok checked the bill the tails were $342.50 before taxes, and this was on OCT 3rd of 2001...thanks for the compliment on them, trust me the car looks so much better with them...if you can get the ones with the white stripe (like mine) down the side, not the red..The red strips just doesnt work as well...the white/clear makes the blue in the car on the back come out so much more!

 

[Bradsbadride]

hey read this one late sorry,I have the carbon fiber rear lights APC and there incredible,the price was to ...380.00 range taxs in.I have pics if you want....

 

[CANMP3]

Yeah, I want the pics.
Where did you get them.

 

[Stou]

Here's a picture of the carbon fiber tail light and you can get them at Nopi:

I'v seen quite a few picks of them actually. All from guys here that have them on the mp3. I'm wondering from those guys if they have had any troubles with them fogging up? and, there's no extra wiring needed right?

Some pics look really nice. Others often seem like they look cheap. I wish I could see them in person. I expect nothing but perfection in Quality for my car. My worry is that I'll spend 400.00 on them, and get them, and they will look like they are made of cheap plastic, or fog up on me.
