Let me just say this,<P>When everyone first heard of the news of the existance of mx-3 Altezza lights everyone assumed it was Pakeifer that manufactured them.<P>It wasn't until later on once people like Oscar started ordering them part of the group buy that he discovered Pakfeifer didn't actually make them and it was some Tiawan company instead.<P>Who is this Tiawan company that makes them, I don't think anyone really knows for sure other than Pakfeifer and a few other vendors that are selling them.<P>All I am saying is that everyone kind of initially made the assumption that Pakfeifer made them without really asking more about it.<P>Anyways, like anything else in life, Buyer Beware.

i recieved this email from IMSA:<P><B>Pakfeifer does not make the lights. He buys them at the same manufacturer I do, in Taiwan. So, in reality, they are the same lights, but my company is IMSA GROUP and he is PAKFEIFER.</B><P>i'm guessing, he read this post on the board.<BR>i was under the impression that pakfeifer made the lights themselves...but now i know. i have my own customizing shop..so for everybody in the US..i'm tryin to get a contract with PAKFEIFER to be a US distributor. i'll let ya know when i hear somethin :)<BR>tiffany

the reason for the high price is that the Mx-3 is a fairly rare car. the high price is a result of the price they pay to make the mold for the tails compared to the amount that will be purchased a classic case of supply and demand. You can buy some of tthese altezzas at frigin pepboys at autozone for the most popular imports. The rarenss of MX-3's is what makes us love them it's sometimes called in articles "the Car people forgot to buy"

I was able to find out some more info on the Altezza style tail lights for the MX3...<BR>After being turned off to the fact that the Austrian based company wanted me to pay around $400 for the tails, I decided to check elsewhere. I found a website specializing in import parts, and a new addition to their inventory is the Altezza style euros for the Mazda MX3(92-96...<P>You can order them in the <A HREF="http://www.IMSA-GROUP.com" TARGET=_blank>www.IMSA-GROUP.com</A> website...<BR>They are $269.95 USD and can be ordered via PayPal. I find this better than paying $400 plus S&H...<P>here is the page:<BR><A HREF="http://www.imsa-group.com/Tail_lights2.htm" TARGET=_blank>IMSA-Group.com - Altezza</A><P>I hope that helps some...<BR>~Mike<p>[ August 02, 2002: Message edited by: CivicFearsMX3 ]
Why did I smoke 2 01' Honda Civics at a stoplight w/ my stock 96' MX3? Cause the drivers were too busy rev'in up their engines to hear their $hitty mufflers!
