Need your help fellas -
I ordered a pair of these from Pitlane a month ago and have not been able to get a response from the seller. I have sent emails to both parties listed on the paypal listing and the reply email from Pitlane.
Can any of you provide me a contact used for the Pitlane purchase?
Your help is truly appreciated.

I probably wouldn't worry too much. They were very honest and I checked all of their claimed postage dates and they were all spot on. It is just simply very slow via the routes they need to go (from one city to another to another then to an overseas country then to another city then your city).
Either way I got worried too and jumped up and down a bit and got a reply from the General Manager - he was a very nice guy.
Here are the details from his email signature including a phone number. Hope this helps.
Good luck, keep us posted!

Installation takes approx 2 mins per side (open hood, remove one philips head screw, pull out old tail light, unplug harness, plug harness into new light, replace philips head screw, close hood).

Hi 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?

Finally received the Dectane tail lights after a four month circuitous 6 nation global tour. I thought I'd be clever and seek direct factory fulfillment from Dectane AG. Not a great idea in hindsight. They did install in minutes, totally plug and play as advertised. A slight worry when testing the range of operation - there appeared not to be any central reverse lights. They are very dim in the bright sun, but they are there. I also ordered some LED rear plate lights, and they sent ones for BMW/Mercedes/VW/AUDI...I suppose we'll put these on wife's car.

I'll post picts if anyone's interested.
My led plate lights also said bmw etc but fit my car fine. I would try it first.
The more pics the more better

Looks like I need to order another 3rd brake light (will be my 4th) - strange since I rarely use the brakes.

Alas, on closer inspection they sent me LPLO01 for "OPEL Zafira and Astra" so won't work on wife's car either. Code is close enough to LPLPO01 which is the code for 911 plates...close but no cigar, as they say!

I got this last one from "Euromotorspeed" on Ebay about 2 years ago. Eric at Bumperplugs had stopped carrying them back in 2008. Like tires, brake pads, and rotors on a Porsche, it seems they live fast and die young!
