We probably need a few more because somebody will invariably drop out.

(longtime lurker here... signed up just to get in on this deal )

I'm in!

Two questions:
1. At what point do we choose the LED temperature (5K, 6K, etc.) and lens type?
2. And was it decided what was the safest way for payment for the 20 of us?

I believe we will choose the color temperature and the lens type when we checkout on the exLED website. Once the group buy is complete, it is my understanding that we will get a special coupon code for this group buy to use on the website that will provide the correct discount. All transactions will be handled through the exLED website. Once we have the final list and final details I will post instructions on the forum

If you want in on this group buy, make sure you add yourself to the list by copying the list and adding your name at the end in a new post.

Group Buy Purchase Instructions

THE GROUP BUY IS EXTENDED UNTIL THE END OF THE DAY ON THURSDAY, JUNE 6, 2013 (PACIFIC TIME).

Currently the LED boards are being manufactured and will not be in to exLED until the end of this week or early next week. Because of this we are extending the group buy until the end of the day on Thursday (June 6, 2013). The kits should ship early next week once everyone has completed their purchase for this group buy.

In the mean time, everyone who has signed up on the list should follow the directions below to complete their group buy purchase.

The group buy page is up on the exLED website. You can follow the link below to purchase the kit that you would like. Currently the pricing is set up for 20 people. IF we get up to 30 people on this group buy, then exLED will refund us the difference between the 20 person and 30 person cost.

Directions to complete group buy purchase:
1. Follow the link to the exLED website group buy page: http://www.exledusa.com/acura-tsx-05...y-special.html
2. Choose the kit you would like and note any special request in the memo line during the checkout process.
3. Include a note in the memo line during the checkout process to note the clip lens color you would like (clear white or cream white).
4. Include your Acurazine ID in the memo line at checkout as well for exLED to keep track of the purchases that have been made.

I checked with exLED and typically color choice costs extra, but for this group buy it will be free. Please include a note in the memo if you have any special color requests.

Just ordered - thanks.

There are a few issues though. The site says '05~'13 - that clearly isn't right.

Of a bit more concern is the shipping which is added on as $5 to get to the discounted price of $91.24 but shipping is free at the non-discounted price.

Now we are getting things like the clip on lenses (and different colors if requested) at no cost but the $5 free shipping is a bit of "three card Monte" - I'd rather pay $6 for a lens and retain the "free" shipping rather than lose transparency and have people feel cheated.

As I understand it, the white dissipates the light slightly so multiple LED units look more uniform. The cream is more frosted, giving a slightly more uniform light but reducing output a bit more and warming the light slightly.

Neither should reduce light output appreciably.

I could be completely wrong here but that is what I got from the photos and descriptions.

what ceb said sounds correct for the lenses.

as for the color -- I have 5K which is bright white; 6K will be more blue (how blue IDK).

this is very accurate as I have the clear lens on my front map only to help spread and diffuse the light. its nothing MAJOR and the lens do pop ON and OFF by hand. all other leds do not use the lens.

I placed the order alright!

I saw where it says '05~'13, which is why it is very important to state your yr model, such as Acura TSX CU2, '09~'13 (for 2nd gen) or TSX - CL9 ('05~'08) for first gen.

The notes will come in the step 4 of the check out, and thats' where you will note all you need to place the order....

my

Can't wait now....

Hi, I would also like to get in on this.

Is there anything needed to get on the list, or do I just go ahead and buy from the site using the above link/instructions?

In my excitement to complete this order, I forgot to include my member name in the Memo line (I did include the lens option, however).

My order number is #767.

That depends. Can you get cheaper LEDs on fleabay? Of course but then you also get spotty quality and iffy customer service.

I remember when robpp bought these and worked with them to get the wagon lights right. Every time there is an issue, these guys step up to resolve it.

In addition, the fact that at least one Acura dealer is selling these may go far if there is a warranty dispute.

You have to pay to play. Paying a bit more upfront may save you headaches in the long run.
