Marshall, first, thanks for taking the lead on this.

My sense is that a group buy should result in a savings in either base cost or shipping. Since the headlights aren't actually made in Australia perhaps they could be drop shipped by the manufacturer. It might be possible to have a shipment to each coast and Europe and then have a volunteer redistribute. I am willing to serve as the east cost volunteer. That should result in a significant reduction in shipping cost.

One thing you might want to confirm with them is that you can specify that the headlights are for a left hand or right hand drive vehicle. Another thing to clarify is if payment is on a group basis or individually.

I do have one other thing you could ask them. Their listing and the photos seem to suggest that the lens is black. I am curious if it is available in clear and if the top of the housing is silver like OEM.

Thanks again for your initiative.
