I think he's sold out, you might have to wait another month for them.

Excellent price, considering others are selling for $750 w/o shiping, add shipping and you are close to $1,000 for lights, that's just crazy. At $600 they are still making a lot of money.

I've seen DirtyVegas's lights first hand. They look 100% OEM. Awesome!

DRL's

I've been keeping in contact with Frank since I ordered my tail lights regarding LED DRL's. The pictures he provided that someone posted earlier were just the backs of the DRL's, he sent me pictures of the fronts of them as well as installed and it became quite clear that The DRL's he has available are NOT plug and play. What he has available are OEM with a wiring harness and you need to upgrade to the 997.2 bumper.
I've explained to him we are looking for a plug and play solution. I sent the link for the Speedart ones (which he can get, I didn't ask the price because I’m not sold on the look of them). I also sent him a link for the Rottec ones (anyone know what's going on with these?)
He now understands what we are after. He has spoken with Dectane to see if they can get something going to have them manufactured, he's going to keep me in the loop with any developments.
He also confirmed that he is out of stock of the tail lights. He is expecting a supply in early July of about 100 sets, 60 of which are for back orders, leaving about 40 sets available for 6speeders.
Hope this helps!

Frank got back to me within 24 hours due to time difference. I have put in my order with him so hopefully I will see them sometime around the first week of july. Here is his response as to the back order and when to expect them... looks like 6speedonline members came in and cleaned house



"Right now all sets have been sold out within a week due to the run on the forum.


We already ordered a lot of sets and the big shipment will arrvive 07/01 (from today in 10days)

Is that still acceptable for you?


Mit freundlichen Grüßen
With kind regards

Thanks for the update with the DRL. Great job CanuckC4S! Hopefully Dectane can come out with an OEM appearing DRL

Dectane lights from a US distributor for $600

A while ago I posted that my friend's company has been working on a deal to import the Dectane lights directly from Europe or China. That's finally happened. He was not able to get them directly from DEPO (despite about 10 calls to them!) because Dectane has exclusive European distribution rights to these lights for a few more months and the US DEPO distributor, Maxzone, does not carry them yet and cannot order them. But he was able to get them from Orange's distributor in Europe. He can do $600 shipped to you in the US. And I can tell you the margin on selling these for $600 is next to nothing. He really wanted to come in less, but there is just no way without buying directly from DEPO. If you live in CA you will have to pay sales tax as his business is located there. He's ordered 6 sets and 2 are spoken and paid for so far.

If you are interested, you can PM me or email the company directly (that would be easier). The contact email is below. He can accept paypal or credit cards over the phone if preferred. If the next 4 slots fill up quickly, he can order more. Timing is the same as the Orange lights. Dectane is expecting their next shipment on 7/1 and the lights well be sent out to the resellers at that time and then on to the buyers. Thanks.
