January is not a good time for this.. If only I had my tax return.. or maybe that new kickback check. Then I would be in for sure!

I can understand some guys may have trouble coming up with funds, I do not necessarily have a huge problem with waiting maybe 2 weeks at max. You will need to contact the other group buyers to get a approval, I am only putting this together, but it's really up to everyone else.

We got one more buyer on our list this weekend, Rival8, here is the new list:

1. 8xr
2. Firebirdude
3. laythor
4. tiger football
5. dimigon (10% off online price)
6. coolstorm92
7. babohan
8. widds2v
9. c41250n
10. VarneyMazda (15% off online price)
11. arcX-8
12. Babo4u
13. rival8

If you have a problem with making payment please let me know so I can try and let others know.

Fine by me to wait, I am in by no means a rush, I probably wouldn't be installing this for at least another few months anyways.

Two weeks is max for me. I mean, I don't mind waiting.... but lets not string this out a month. Then others start losing interest. Suddenly our list of 13 becomes 8 and we're back to 10% off. Can you tell I've done a group buy or two before? ROFL!

EDIT: And how are we to go about actually placing the order? Will we have to call our orders in? Then how could Corksport be assured that 10+ people will actually place the order? .... Unless they hold all payments until 10+ people call in....

Well I spoke with Derrick at Corksport and he said we are free to make the purchase as soon as everyone is ready to do so. When we give the authorization he will assign me a promotion code to pass out to the group members and then we will get our percentage off the code will remain active for only 24 hours. Now the question is when do you guys want to go through with the order? I was thinking maybe sometime next week between Wednesday to Friday. Give me some feedback.

So Friday (2-8-2008) everyone? Yes or No? As long as we get 10 people paying it's going to be a YES. If you have objections it would be wise to let us know quickly.

I'm cool with any day you guys decide. Send emails or atleast PMs to everyone on that day, so they will receive an email reminder. I've been on the board every day as of late, but some days I just don't have the time. I'd HATE to miss our 24-hour window.....

Setting a calender reminder in my cell phone now...

The adapter that corksport sells you allows you to retain the buttons on your steering wheel for use with your new aftermarket headunit.

However, the one they sell kinda sucks and isin't the cheapest. Several other companies make a better unit for less money. I'd skip corksport's and buy from PAC for like 50 bucks.

I definitely second firebirdude's suggestion about the steering wheel controls, the PAC control module is much better and cost friendly.

i would be in but i still dont see my self wasting that kind of money on a piece of plastic, any one think of taking there stock plastic out and have one custom made at a shop like out of fiber glass or something? i bet the cost would be alot cheaper, and would look nice and be better quality, i dont see how they can get away with charging more money for the install kit then how much most decks cost
