I've recieved a couple of PM's asking when i might start up another GB for the PIAA's so i figured i post and see how many would be up for another GB?
The prices are normally over $200.00 for the superwhites and the ION's.
The GB price that i've gotten is usually around $155.00/$165.00.
If anyone is interested in getting in on this GB just post with a yes and any questions you might have.
A bit of INFO you might want to know about me and the GB......I've set up 3 already that went great and every CEG'er was extremely happy with the purchase and install.
I have a HOW-TO install that is very easy with pics and a detailed info.
Let me know
i am in on the driving lights...... want them for the summer
yea if maybe u can do this in a couple of months like 2 or 3 i would be down.
which are the ones that give a yellowish light? the driving or fog lights?
the crystal ion fogs... i have those..... they look quite awesome!!

They look nice as hell during the day turned off too. I love that bluish tint to the lenses.
This is one of the smoothest GBs so far I have seen on the CEG. No hassles at all.
Thanks for mine Slim.
Bernie Williamson
I'll call for a price tomorrow.
As usual i'll need a minimum of 10 buyers anything less will not do.
If any MYSTIQUES are interested in a set of piaa's i can try to arrange a order of fogs that will fit and look good
Let me know
I'm definitely interested in this.
However, I've had a lot of trouble with my fogs either going out. For whatever reason, in the last year, I've had one side just stop working, I'm not sure if it's the casing cracking and letting in moisture or connections or what. I'm just a bit worried though because a $30 factory fog is much easier to replace than a $160'ish PIAA.
I am interested, what time frame are we looking at?

Well with any glass cover you have to worry about it being cracked by road debris
I'm not going to say thta it can't happen but i've had mine for 2 years now and there still ok.
TIME FRAME would be about 1 month from now maybe longer.

I'd definately be interested in a pair of ion in a month or two!!!
i am also interested. time to get some real lights and ones that fit right too!
Well from what i can see it looks like 7 CEG'ers are interested?
All i need is 10 buyers and the GB can get done, I'll try to get a price by monday.
AGAIN IF ANY MYSTIQUES OWNERS WANT TO BUY A SET OF PIAA'S FOR THERE MYSTIQUES LET ME KNOW AND I'LL GET A PRICE FOR YOU
I know you guys want new fogs so here is your chance to get one of the best.
I bought a set - Slim has put these togehter before, the transaction was REAL easy, quick ship. The HOW TO install is step by step to insatall these. The light output difference from stock with higher outpu bulbs to the PIAA superwhites is amazing!
Stock lights are not $30 apice as mentioned above, but closer to $80 - $100. These are class lenses and metal bodies... REAL well built. PIAA has been in European market quite some time, is a reputable firm.
After intall you can not tell they have been swapped. they fit he SVT perfectly.
Thanks Slim for putting these together for CEG!
Lee
Whoops, I was thinkin of the ones from BAT, not factory replacements.
Anyway, I'm in for a set of the PIAAs. Now the only question is, ion crystal fog or super white driving...
Please tell me this could possibly still go on, PLEASE!!!!
If so, I'm in 100% for the driving lights.
Slim, I sent you a PM.
Yea, I'd be in for a set as well if they're still avaliable at that price
Does anyone have pics of the driving lights??? If they look like i think they do i'm in...
Most def down for driving lights (superwhites preferred but crystal ion is acceptable as second choice if most of the peeps here would order the latter)
Is this still goin cuz i may be in if so.
I sent Slim a PM a couple days ago, but he hasn't replied. I don't know if its still going on, but doing a search in this forum, I found nothing that ever closed this deal. But I really have no say in the matter... except that I want in!
Slim,
I'm in for the Driving Lights. Let me know when you need the $
As far as I know, the deal was never closed, we just never got the 10 people we needed for the group pricing. I'm still interested in a pair of crystal ions.

Your right it was never closed it just never happened because not enough buyers.
If you guys would like a set of piaa 510's i would need 10 serious buyers to get it started.
Who ever is 100% serious in buying them send me a PM so i can keep count.
Alright guys, lets stat the list of people who are 100% in.
1.) Dionysus (Tait) that's also ME
Will they be for the GB price of $155/165? Does that include shipping? Just wondering...I'm very interested...

Don't count me, I just wanted to let everyone know that $160ish is an excellent price! I have a set of the 510 superwhites and i love em. good luck with em.
Hey Slimshady, where does the list of people stand?
Any chance of getting a set for my SHO at some discounted rate? A set of the 1500 or 1700 driving lights would be nice...I mean if you can. If not and you need a certain amount of the 510s thats cool. I'm just a troll or whatever
Come on people!!! This is a great deal, and everyone should get in on this.
I got on the list among the first. Now, what's next?
OK count me in on the driving lights

I need new fogs, I havent used my fogs in soooo long because one of my housings got cracked or something and one day when it rained one of my fogs was completly full of water.....looked like a little aquarium!
What is the difference between the superwhites and the ions?
I want to get in on this GB. I looked at your how-to, not being to mechanically inclined it was a bit confusing with just the pictues
When and where do I send my money? I didn't think this was going through because not many people posted that they were in, but I guess I was wrong. Good
ok let me rephrase my other post.
I AM IN Still would like to know the differnce between the superwhites and the Ions. And maybe some help with the how-to
thanks
PIAA 510 There are two PIAA 510's the Ion Crystal Fog and the Super White Driving. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but what I understand of them is that the ion crystal is more of a yellowish light, an actual fog light. The super white driving are a... super white light used for driving, kinda like a second set of headlights.

Correct the ION's are very similar to the IS300 fogs, they have a widespread YELLOW light (NOT FOR DISTANCE) and the superwhites are strictly for distance but IMO they light up the side of the road just fine for me. BTW they are WHITE LIGHTS.
Here is the price:
$170.00 for the SUPERWHITES
175.00 for the ION'S
Excluding shipping!!!
SHONUFF I can get the 1700's for $180.00, It's a plasma blue light. REG price: $220.00
From here on i need a YES or NO.
YES-Super Whites
What time frame we looking at here? Assuming we get 10 today/tomorrow, when will you need the money and when will we see the product? Just need to plan the budget.
BTW this GB will be by CREDIT CARD ONLY!
I will post a phone # for everyone to call and place their order, when there is 10 or more buyers.
Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.
As soon as i have 10 solid buyers i'll call my contact and set up a date, shouldn't be no longer then a week or two.
Turn around should be 2 weeks. My contact will tell you how long.
YES- I am definately in for the SuperWhites Driving lights (for distance). Just tell me the time and the number to call.
Look out Elk! Here I come! (there are a lot of Elk out at night where I live)
Thanks again Slim!
YES - I think I'll go with the super whites instead of the ions though
YES! 40 bucks off sounds good to me!
out...sadly...too many things going on now
YES I am in on the superwhite driving lights
Sorry guys but I needed these about 2 weeks ago when I changed my whole front end
I have to say I"m out. Thanks

I was quite please with the service and the speedy delivery. But now I have to wait till I get my paws on a Dremel so that I can do the install.

no

No problems here, I received and installed mine on Monday.

yup mine were 200++ after shipping. And I haven't got mine yet, I was told monday because they were coming from piaa directly not from Lane automotive. So you could say I'm pissed but I have bigger fish to fry. and life goes on...........
I've had mine installed for a couple of days now and I love them very much!!
Just don't go and post prices and pics of the 510's and better PIAA's for a comparable price to what we all paid in a GB. Reinforcement after a purchase like this is what we need, we don't need buyer's remorse.
Havent got mine yet

prices from yahoo shopping
You are so right those look FACTORY and these look like they definitely don't fit, Thank you for finding the right fit
You know this is the third GB that i did for the PIAA 510's i even had them in my SVT and loved them, everyone else in the prvious GB's loved them and didn't once complain about anything, Go and try to find prices better then that at any store not the internet and i guarantee thye won't come close.
The very first GB that i set up the price we payed was 160.00 IIRC
The second was 165.00 IIRC
Now the third 170.00
So i guess every year it might go up, I have no clue
BTW i make NO MONEY off this, i just wanted a set back in the day and called up and got a price, Then just to help out other CEG'ers i inquired to see if anyone else would want a set of piaa's and thats how it evolved.
This will be the last GB i set up for the PIAA 510's
To those that are happy with them, I'm glad i could help you out.
To those who are not well send them back or cancel your order and go somewhere else.
Because i'm not a [censored] i will still help anyone with there installation if need be.
BTW: This is as factory as you'll get!
Those say that they're for the Contour and they may work even though they don't look like they would. And as for the prices, the price I got in this buy was less than those yahoo shopping prices.
Slimshady: don't say that
seems like I have caused a bit of a tiff
did not mean to
guess those internet sights offered free shipping
Anyway slim
since you will not be doing a GB anymore on the 510 will you be doing a GB on the 910 and 959 if that is they do fit properly which I am sure you are able to find out for us.
Are you being a true [censored] or are you really that stupid....
hmmm,
what is this reason for being so harsh
explain please MapOfTaziFoSho
Originally posted by contour_phoenix_when:

Because you come onto this GB thread and make posts about other lights with prices from where ever and then have the balls to ask slim to start another GB. Think before you speak and don't hijack threads your not involved with. Especially considering the GB is done and product has been shipped.

Are you serious you come in and post prices of some internet company from yahoo and say you have the fogs that fit the tour?
Meanwhile this is the 3rd GB i've done for the PIAA 510 and have had them on my tour for 3 years with no problems, Had about 45 CEG'ers in all buy them, install them, PM and post that they love them and that its one of the best mods they've done on there tours.
One of the easier and smoother GB's they've been in.
Here's a tip before you speak THINK
forget about the azzclown slim...he's obviously not too bright.....
STF !!!!
opps look what I have started
name calling
can u wire these like u can w/ the stock fogs to be able to come on w/ parking lights.
got mine Thanks again Tony
SLIMSHADY
Thanks for the GB. I finally got to drive my car at night.
WOW these things kick azz. My friends are very jealous, one has a stock SVt with the origional fogs damn they are pathetic compared to the piaa's. I lit his whole driveway up with them. Thanks to you I now am a BIOTCH because of my bright fogs
PS I tried wiring them for fogs on wit hparking lights and coiuldn't get it to work. I think my car is just immune to some mods. Thanks again for the excellent GB and awesome write up on the install.
i just got my hands on the 510 fogs. do they wire up to the stock connections? i wanted to do this and the fog light mod/parking light setup.
