    Has anyone looked into getting a few together to reduce the shipping?

    If a group of us going to DCS could organize an order, maybe reduce the shipping significantly.

    Do we have an overseas shipping guru that can help with a plan?

    Samuel and I are splitting shipping. Since my car is in Melbourne where Eddie and he are located, that works out well. I plan on installing it the same time I install a new 140MPH speedometer.

    I'm not about to wait til DCS for this. I am an American, and I demand nearly instantaneous gratification .

    Actual snippet of a conversation from Sept 2013:

    Me: Eddie, I can't wait to get the car back when you're done with it.

    Eddie: Yeah, you'll be able to give the car gas, and it won't be - like - embarrassing....

    If there are any other NorCal orders that are interested in shipping together I'd be interested depending on where you live.

    Any SEDOC guys want to go in together on shipping? I could have them shipped to my office in Roswell, GA and then ship them on from there.

    Perfect! Let's give it a couple days to see who else might want to coordinate. Not sure what the savings on shipping would be, but I'd assume it would make it worth our effort. I don't get to Santa Cruz often but perhaps we could meet halfway, such as Livermore, to make the exchange. We can talk more via PM.

    If you have a few others joining you, I might also be interested to join the party if it significantly reduces the shipping.....I can get it from you at DCS.

    Very quick update- just back from my fibreglass guy placing order. He did some more research with his supplier and the high temperature resistant resin he is going to be using in the binnacles is resistant to temperatures of 100-120 celsius which is 212- 248 fahrenheit. He told me the name of it but i forget it.
    It's a little more expensive but I hope to be able to absorb the extra cost.
    I dont think warping will be an issue!
