Default Aerocatch Flush fit Bonnet pins - Group Buy

Guys,

I am looking to buy some Aerocatch flush fit locking bonnet pins and after speaking to a couple of people they would be interested also so I am looking to run a groupbuy on them.

Link to the website with info is here:

AeroCatch® - new design of bonnet pin, available in locking or non-locking versions – see how it works.........

I have fired of a few emails to several stockists to see what they are willing to offer.

When I get anything back I will post up on here with prices, so as a starter can you post if you maybe interested.

Dave, get in touch with Alyn at AS performance. He's always keen for a group buy and always offers good reliable service.

Be aware that these come in flush (fit under the panel) and plus flush (fit ontop of the panel)

I would offer to help Dan, but I know what a perfectionist you are with your car and I'd hate to screw it up. Although it looks more time-consuming than difficult

That seems to be about a standard discount for S-net on most things so there won't be a minimum number. Dave Featherstone is always a good guy to speak to if you want discount from DTs.

As said before give Alyn at AS Performance a ring thats where I got mine
tell him the deal on offer and there is a fairly good chance he will beat the deal on offer

I'm out at that price TBH.
With 15% off the product price thats £39.57 + £8.33 delivery. Total = £47.90.

I was looking into a group buy on these for my local club and I had a supplier willing to sell them at £42 delivered all to 1 address,
OR at £43.50 to different addresses.
That was only based on buying 3 sets.
If you like I could check with him and see if this prices are still available and if there would be further discounts if numbers were increased?

Incidently, I also managed to get 10% off Merlin Motorsport if numbers were above 10, which still works out cheaper than demon tweaks due to the more realistic postage cost.
