Dare I do it? Another ECSTuning Group Buy?

[Manaz]

I'm considering running another GB with ECS. Am I crazy? Possibly. Will I use Paypal for this one? Not on your life.

So, if anyone's interested in grabbing some stuff from ECS and saving on shipping costs and potentially getting some discounts on the parts themselves, let me know in here. Maybe we can bring in some Christmas presents for ourselves.

[remy]

I've got a few bits I wanna buy so I'll be in for this.

[Manaz]

OK. I'll put together a "this is how you express interest" post tomorrow (sorry for the delay, I was out of town for my sister's wedding).

[kendog]

All good Manaz, everyone else is probably flat out too (I've been moving house), and still getting ideas of what goodies we want... Can't wait to get some time aside to get my list together..

Among other things, I'm looking at getting a triple square M8 bit for the bolts holding the locking mechanisms in the doors. I was looking at this small kit, would I better off with a different kit that has more sizes? What other sizes of 'triple square' are common on MK4 Golf? The M8 is the only one I have come accross so far that I haven't been able to work around without destroying the bolts..

Actually, this one is probably better value, even though I have most of the other bits.. Unless I need more/different 'triple square' bits?

That set is crap, trust me I have the same one, but in a red box.
The torx bits and screwdrivers stuff is OK, but the Triple Square is just not 'sharp' enough and rounds out when using on the door bolts. I have ****ed up the bolts trerribly and have to drill them out.
Just spend the cash on the individual M8 socket.
