997.1 Dectane DRL led

They are available now and just ordered my set from Frank @ Orange Tuning.

I have had 0 issues with ordering from Frank from the last 2 transactions with him.

I will post pics when I receive and install them.

The cost must have been $540.00USD if it was done this week. That's not a bad price based on the fact that Ray charged the first 100 people $525.00 plus if you paid with Visa or MC the surcharge for international was $18.00. When you order from Frank at Orange Tuning you get the item within 4-5 business days, when I placed my order with Ray for a CF Lip that came deformed, it took 9-10 business days. Pick your poison, me personally I would order from Frank, he's honest and straight forward and shipping is quick and has a much larger business to accommodate us all! If you go back and read the Dectane Rear Lights that everybody ordered, you can read all the comments about when and how fast the items were received. I believe the next order Ray takes and people will receive in Feb 2012 will be paying a little more than the original. Go back and read his comments.

First 100 people paid $500 including shipping.
I ordered the Dectane DRL module from Frank at Orange Tuning and it arrived about 3 weeks later.

I just checked my VISA statement and Ray charged me $250 for the deposit as agreed, and $300 for the final balance. Thats because I bought the LED side marker and license plates bulbs from him too for $50 more. So the balance was $250 as originally agreed and that included shipping. No international fee was added either. No complaints from me.

Can't wait to see these!! Based on how close the rear LED's were to OEM (by far the closest match) I think the front LED's will be the same. I'm in!!!!

FYI, Visa adds the international transaction fee (about 3% I think). Since I go to Canada a lot and got tired of the charge, I searched and found one Visa card that does not charge the fee: CapitalOne.

Frank emailed me photos of their DRLs. I haven't ordered bcos I am yet to receive shipping info about the rear Dectanes that I paid for. They sure seem little shady. So don't rush into ordering guys. I can post DRL photos if you want though.

I've ordered lots of stuff from Frank and have never had an issue. Sometimes it just takes a while to get through customs.

Hi TT2911,
I am hoping that my lights come-in in good time because they have some good stuff that I like to order. Did he email you tracking info or you just waited till the pckge turned up at your door?

Thanks Kevin, I didn't know that. For everybody else, please don't get me wrong by saying this, any time you buy anything outside the states it's a gamble, look some guys had bad luck with Frank at Orange Tuning, me personally I had an excellent experience zero issues! Then some guys had good luck with Rottech and I didn't along with others, either way it's a gamble!
