Rich,
It doesn't take much to organize. I've got the old posts from late 2001 GP
handled by 'da wheelman. Looked like this:
>Here's the final numbers:
>A6/S6 - $559
>S4 - $599
>Jetta/Bora - $280
>A4 - $375
>We put together an order for about 13 lights...and are saving close to $100
>on the S6 and S4 lamps...pretty darn good.
Seems like a concerted effort to cross-post and stimulate a following (is
that like Abba?, nah - that' cross-dress) is key to rounding up a good
number. A few key phone calls with our favorite suppliers and see what we
get.

Can't help you, but I know there are others out there interested in a GP
(including myself), maybe we can arrange one??

Does anyone know who's got the best price on the Euro light assemblies
for the 92-92 Urs4? During the last GP, I got the 95.5 ones from PUMA,
Is Paul still the best bet?

Hi Joe;
Need more light? At this point, no. Ten years from now, probably :o)

Fred,
HID Highs aren't all they're cracked up to be. You
really shouldn't flash the D2R bulbs, as they have a
critical warmup cycle and flashing your highs will cut
their life short. Besides, do you really need more
light? ;-)
