What panel does it eliminate? One of my business partners speaks Japanese, so I can have him call the manufacturer if it's something we need to get our greedy American hands on...

ItaliaTib2k3 · 08-03-2007, 07:28 AM

Wow...I think I really should contact these guys...

Mike, get this part and the binnacle and I'll pick it up from your house! I'm in Westchester too now.

KingOfJericho · 08-03-2007, 07:47 AM

$286 for the eliminator using today's rates. $237 for the binnacle. I am positive you'd sell tons of binnacles as it's not just a cover... it's the actual piece. I know I would buy both of these if you could get them hear and price them reasonably (these prices are reasonable).

I clicked on the link to order and (of course) got a page in Japanese (duh). So I had google translate it:

Quote:

The notice regarding order

1. Because basically it is order production, there are times when it receives time in payment date.

2. Please be sure to inquire payment date.

3. Production to complete, because at the stage which can do dispatch preparation you communicate from this,
　　Please transfer price to this corporation designated account.

4. Payment verification circumstance, you dispatch.

5. Because Lotus body difference is large, depending upon the body of the customer, there are times when processing such that the mounting hole is expanded is required.

6. We have kept paying the attention of the maximum to paint of the product, but this corporation paint is not special.
　　Coating of prevention of ultraviolet ray deterioration please think to the last distantly.

　　However, in case of the returns by the customer reason the round trip postage and transfer commission when repaying burden.
　　(Mischief, is in order to prevent the cold oak. Acknowledgment.)

$10 says the binnacle is for the UK cars and won't fit the Federal/Canadian cars. Look at the tabs at the back...

LSUFAN · 08-03-2007, 08:19 AM

Or you can check out www.vonhep.com..they are well made and look better than just the two arms hanging when the back is all naked, IMO...

"(Mischief, is in order to prevent the cold oak. Acknowledgment.) "

That is crazy.

shay2nak · 08-03-2007, 09:55 AM

Shawn C · 08-03-2007, 12:48 PM

We've already tried and they don't fit the Fed car.

Zion stuff is cool. If you are serious, contact me and we can get it for you.

codymac · 08-03-2007, 01:28 PM

Fair warning - if it comes pre-drilled, a US plate won't match up to the holes. Japanese plates are different dimensions than US plates.

Just a friendly FYI.

shay2nak · 08-06-2007, 01:27 PM

I've seen the license plate section made from CF elsewhere. Possibly one of the UK shops or Netherlands.

Shawn C · 08-10-2007, 09:16 AM

I got a reply and they are willing to ship to the US. Money order only though, No credit cards or Paypal though.
