I have no idea what it looks like. Sounds like it will make my car go faster so I think I am in.
Question is what is the $$$ per Pound.

I would be interested depending on price ($300-$400 would be cool, $600+ would not).

Please elaborate on the advantages of a GT style kit. Is it just for the cool factor? or for those looking to precisely replicate a factory GT? or shave a few ounces? AFAIK, there aren't any issues with the stock headlight motor/relay/mechanisms are there?
TIA

Well the head light stuff has worked well for my car. being 36 1/2 years old I'd say that pretty good.
But I am looking to lose the motors and stuff to cut pound not ounces.

It does shave weight about 8lbs. per motor, and of course it all about the GT cool factor (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smoke.gif)

This is the GT kit that was recently up for bid on German Ebay.
Bidding began at 250. euros and ended at 550. euros

Very very interested here! Have been looking for a kit for more than a year. I have been talking to aircooledracing for at least a year, they have said many times they are going to make a kit, still waiting. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) If you have source, great!! Put me on the list.
