wlgreen64
Hey y'all. I am starting a new thread on this to see if we can get another gb started for the mirrors. Here's what happened last time...
Group buy - Muth Signal Mirror
Anybody interested???
wlgreen64
So Chris Wedge (the same contact with Muth as before) has contacted me, so it is a possibility. I am down for this...anyone else interested?
maddawg995
I'm interested but it would help if you can provide more details such as the price.
Copout221
If we can get them for $199.00 again I will do it !!! ;)

Okay, Chris has gotten back with me with the following:

"Dear wlgreen64,

Thank you for your reply and efforts!

If you can generate interest from at least 6 members (including yourself) we can offer the same buy as last time. Once you have at least 6 members, please contact me and I'll provide you with a new code and the details and pricing (which should be the same as last time).


Sincerely,
Chris Wedge
Sales Specialist"


So we need six people to make this happen; I'll be the first to commit.
1. wlgreen64
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.

I am assuming that it would be the $199.00 plus shipping, but I have sent an email to cofirm that. Will let ya know...
wlgreen64
Okay, I just got confirmation that it would be $199.99 plus shipping... so come on guys, lets git er done! How about it maddawg & copout? That would be half way there!
maddawg995
I'm in.

I'd be interested if they offered an amber colored turn signal. I know I'm anal, but I don't like the look of red turn signals on the mirror with amber turn signals on the X.:(

Okay, so far this is what we have:

1. wlgreen64
2. maddawg995
3. copout221
4. kastilyo
5.
6.

Just two more people to commit. We can justify this as a safety improvement to the vehicle. We would be saving over 22% off the regular price, too!

Can this be installed without taking the entire door apart? I've been looking over the installation posts and don't feel comfortable taking everything apart. I just know I'll screw something up.

No, the door must be taken apart. It is not bad at all. Just take your time and follow those instructions and you will be just fine. It's that or pay an "authorized" installer another couple hundred is what I think I remember people saying.
maddawg995
If I'm not mistaken, these would work in the Pilots and Odys are well, right? Maybe some people in those forums would be interested since it is a "safety" feature.

I recalled when we did our GB anyone could join regardless of vehicle but THEY NEED TO ORDER THE MIRROR THAT WOULD FIT THEIR VEHICLE. AS for installation, it is EASY!!!! Just tedious or alot of parts nothing really you can break. Follow the other threads on install.
maddawg995
Any updates on the GB? It seems like we had 4 people on the list right away and nada for the past week or so.
BWSmith201
Sign me up! I'll be number 5.
Copout221
Sorry everyone I am out. The Acura dealer (Arlington Acura in Palatine Illinois) damaged the rear bumper on my 05 and will not pay for the damage to be fixed . This means I have to dig into my pockets for the $500.00 deductable and make the claim with my own insurance. The dealer told me that because I did not notice the damage until the next day after I left they could not be held responsible. I should have never bought this truck from Arlington Acura in Palatine Illinois, they suck !!!! If by some chance the dealer decides to pay for the bumper to be fixed I will still follow through with the signal mirrors. :3: :3:

Bummer.
maddawg995
Is this GB officially dead or still squirming?
Warzau
I;d say wait for another person and email and see what kind of break they would give you.

maddawg995
Anyone else want a set of these?
RL in Florida

maddawg995

Hi, I'm from Honda-Pilot.org Forums.
I'm in if this is still on for $199 (I just checked Muth website and they are giving Free Shipping for Month of June, wonder if they going to give us that w/ the Group Buy)
I will spread the word at the Pilot Forums.
rx5zigen
Here is a another Pilot.org member interested, but some reason he was not able to post eventhough he registered. So just passing on the msg.

Screen Name: Samuel2003
Hey Guys,

Coming over to the dark side from HondaPilot.org. I'm interested in jumping on the wagon!

Does the same mirror fit all three vehicles?
http://www.muthco.com./products/kits/220-0183.htm

My mirrors aren't heated. I'm assuming the 199 price is off the 269 heated kit. Would I be able to purchase the non-heated kit for 149 (219-70)? (And like Rx5, I'm also curious if we can get the GB discount AND free shipping...)

For those of you who made the switch, have you noticed any decrease in optical "performance" or any other drawbacks?

Thanks!
JAC03
Is the GB still on, if so I'm in
maddawg995
Ok, lets get this rolling again. It seems wlgreen64 is MIA. Does any of the kind hearted (not to mention handsome), senior members want to help us set this up? Yes, I'm looking at you Warzau. :D

Hey, I'm here and still wanna get this going...Everybody who is still in please repl;y.
maddawg995
Woohoo!!! Welcome back... We may have enough people now but let's confirm first.
rx5zigen
I'm In.

Also Samuel2003 from HondaPilot.org Forums is in also. He said he wasn't able to post for some reason.

Also wlgreen64 can you find out if we get the free shipping special they have for month of June on their website.

Hi Guys,

(Hoping this post goes through)

I spoke with and emailed Chris at Muth earlier today to see what he could do for us folks without heated mirrors. He said he'd return my email tomorrow but I won't be able to check it until Monday.

As soon as he gets back to me, I'll be posting the info on HondaPilot.org to gauge interest over there.

(If any Pilot owners are reading this, Muth offers two options: 1. a non-heated kit, and 2. a non-heated kit + an upgrade module to make them heated - for vehicles that didn't originally come with heated mirrors)

Please count me in for 1 non-heated kit.

Thanks!


rx5, thanks!
BWSmith201
I'm still in! :2:
Copout221
I am still in !!! ;)
wlgreen64
OKAY! THIS IS IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please read CAREFULLY the email I am pasting, it gives all the details for free shipping AND the discount. DEADLINE TO PLACE ORDERS IS SUNDAY @ MIDNIGHT!

"Thank you for your update! I have had several members of acuramdx.org contact me and indicate they would like to have a special price available for the unheated version too. We will extend a price of $165.00 for the unheated kit and $60.00 for the H-Mod (this kit provides the additional wiring, electronics and switch to safely add the heated SignalŪ mirrors to a vehicle with unheated mirrors).

Here is the information to participate in the group buy:

"When placing the order, please enter the code #MDX0605 in the appropriate box when completing the online form. The pricing will not change on the web, but we will adjust each order manually here once received to reflect the correct group buy price. The question was asked about receiving the "free shipping" special. Normally, a group buy will supercede any web specials meaning it's either the group buy or the web special, not both. In this case, we will make a short exception; forum members can take the free UPS ground shipping special (details) and group buy for any orders placed by 11:59PM CST June 12, 2005. Starting June 13th, shipping charges will apply as normal, no exceptions. The group buy pricing is available from June 10, 2005 through July 10, 2005.

The group buy pricing is as follows:
Heated Signal MirrorŪ kit #220-0183-H $199.00
Unheated Signal MirrorŪ kit #220-0183-0 $165.00
H-Mod #200-0221-0 $60.00"

Please contact me directly with any questions or comments. "

Chris Wedge

Your welcome, maddawg. Glad it finally worked out. Ordered mine tonight, too. I guess we'll all be revisiting that installation thread now :yesyes:

BWSmith201
Mine are ordered up...now on to the installation bit... :2:
Copout221
My order has also been placed. These mirrors better be cool, my wife is going to kill me when she finds out I spent $200.00 on mirrors !!! I also hope the installation is not that difficult. ;)
Warzau
In all reality not really. Just follow the directions and the links here for helpful tips. Also get a wire pull coat the inside of the rubber boot of the door with wd-40 and it will be easy to pull.
Copout221
How many wires need to be routed into the car on each side ? I am guessing only one for the turn signal function !!!
