I was going to order a "Light in Sight" but thought I would see if there's enough interest to put a group buy together. Based on the last group buy it looks like we need about 25 to make it worth while. I emailed them to find out if this is still the case.

If you have not seen the product you can see it here http://www.lightinsight.com/about_us.htm.

Let me know if you are interested so I can get an approximate count.

Thanks

How much are they?  I might be interested, too.

Others have these?  Are they as big as they look in their picture????

They look big in the picture but are actually pretty discrete. They go for 12.50 + about $3.00 shipping. I believe in the last group buy they got down to around $10.00ea but I'm waiting to hear back from them if we can get a similar deal.

For those who may be questioning whether it is worth the money. I bought one on my own a while back for $12.50 and can say it was well worth it. The pic that they have on their site is deceaving, but the product does the job. (it is also another topic point when non-Mini owners check out the Mini
MINI-less... If God allows, I will have one again some day. :D

The club has been asked about these from new members.  So that being said; the club will ensure we get 20.  When you get ready to stop the group buy let me know and I will ensure you get to 20. This will make the cost to each person $10.20 if I figured this correctly.

I'm in for one.  I guess something that makes seeing lights easier is a great first mod before my case of mod-itis really kicks in.

    Light In Sight update:

    "I sent it yesterday, Priority Mail. I apologize for it being later than I said. I threw in a couple of extra lenses to try and make up for it. I just do this part time... I'm really a pastor. I'm also a new dad, and my wife is starting a business and has roped me into a bunch of stuff. So I'm over my head right now. That's why the lenses are late. The post office said 2-3 days to Washington from South Dakota. Expect it tomorrow or Saturday, I'd say. Monday at the latest."

    I'll get them out as soon as I see them,

    Good news....they showed up today and I was able to package them up and get to the post office in time to get them out. Bad news is I was in such a hurry to make it to the post office in time I didn't notice the pack of instruction sheets. Fortunately it's pretty easy but if you need it the exact instructions are as follows:

    1. Clean the inside of the windshield in front of the driver near the top.

    2. Wet the inside of the windshield thoroughly.

    3. Place the smooth side of the light in sight against the glass.

    4. Carefully push all the air bubbles to the glass.

    Light In Sight may appear cloudy until all moisture has evaporated. It will turn perfectly clear in 16-24 hours.

    Enjoy!

    Between this and the antennas possibly being ready by the car show, I may have to make an effort to stop by for just a few minutes...
