i have sent that company many emails about there headers trying to find out how to purhase it and how much shipping would be to canada and have never once heard back from them.
if a company cant even give a simple email response back to a potential customer , even if it is a sorry we do not sell internationally email, then they are not a company worth dealing with in my opinion.
especially if something were to be wrong with the product once it actually arrived i would have no faith they would do anything about it with that much lack of communication.
I have sent an email to head office which is based in Queensland Australia. If I do not revcieve a reply I will contact them by phone to try and find out some information for you all. Here is the extract that I sent via email.
Good Afternoon Sir/Maam,
I am contacting you on behalf of a forum website based in America 4x4 wire.com under the sub heading of Kia Sportage and Sorento Tech. This is a link to the particular site.
http://www.4x4wire.com/forums/postlist.php?Cat=&Board=UBB70 . A number of the people using this site are very interested in obtaining information and possible purchase of your headers that you produce for the Kia Sportage.
There has been some disappointment that a number of members have tried to make contact with your company via email but have not received any acknowledgement or reply. The Kia Sportage has a reasonable following in America and there is a potential for a number of sales of your product for the Sportage over there.
Would you be able to reply to this email please with some of the following information?
Do you have a supplier or Rep based in America that the forum would be able to contact?
Would you be able to export to America and what would the approximate cost be?
If a member would like to purchase a set of headers from you via email or phone how can they go about it with transfer of funds, shipping insurance, etc?
I have mentioned your company a couple of times on this site advising them of a possible fix for their dilemmas. The Kia Sportage does not have a lot of aftermarket support around the world and when we do find aftermarket products we like to advise our members that there is a off the shelf solution available.
Appreciate your time and help with this enquiry?
Regards Chris Bainrot
Genie produces a quality product here in Australia and has been in business for a very long time. (usual blurb don't have any ties with the company etc). I have used their headers on a number of vehicles that I have owned and found them to be of very good quality. I have not actually used the 'wildcat' brand before.
Hopefully we will be able to get some answers for you all, with luck it will be good news and a workable and affordable solution.
cheers, Chris
