At the time, this was the cheapest place I could find on the net that looked reputable. I could also select the currency I wanted the transaction to be done in which was a plus. The guys there are great communicators and the only downside was that based on their location, they had to ship the lights to Germany first, where they were then forwarded to me in Australia. This may apply to other regions. It took 4 weeks for them to arrive....but I was away for most of that time so it didnt worry me too much.
THANKS!
I too thought the carlightpro price was a little high, but I didn't want to wait for a group buy. I saw this price from Pitlane in an earlier thread, but I was afraid to pull the trigger from an overseas shop. After your post confirmed their reliability, I immediately ordered a set. 1 month process for the US too. Thanks for pulling the trigger and letting us know about it! Saved about $250.

What a great response from Pitlane. Thank you for the detalis. Proactively explaining shipping delay's is truly a class act and only hope that other vendors follow suit.

I currently have an order pending that has recently been updated on the DHL website. I'm confident that your processes are not only fair in price, but also have the best care for our parts being delivered over seas. The worth thing to happen is to have a shipment delivered broken causing headaches with returns and such.

I cant wait to get my hands on my order! I feel like a kid at Christmas time!

Has anyone had to pay any duty fees since it's coming from overseas and the declared value of the package is above a certain amount?

IHi guys,

I emailed pitlane where it looks like some of you already got your lights, and they are interested in doing a group buy. Anyone know what the process is for getting a group buy going?

Pitlane, that makes 6 orders so far. How many do you need for a group buy? And the price? Thanks.

adelaide1981, your tail lights look very nice. I know many members here would like to get them. However, since this is a sponsorship supported site, group buys are reserved for those who are paying for access to the forum to promote their business. As PitLane is not a sponsor, they can not post on this site to promote sales.

If members here would like to arrange a group buy, please contact PitLane directly.
