I just called Sewell and talked with Darryl. They are updating the web site, and it is taking a while to get everything updated. But they are working on it. So let's give them some time. If we dont bug them with emails and phone calls, they'll have more time to finish it.

Oh, he also said something about using your CL profile (user name maybe?) instead of a promo code to get the discount.

Just sayin.

i thought darryl worked for carson i guess not, i always talk to peter though (as long as i dont get stuck with Regan though its all good)

you have to re-register for the site with your CL name. now your discount code pops up immediately...i like seeing the original price compared to my CL discount though.

also where is the search button.....and the rest of the parts? why launch a incomplete website?

Darryl has been the parts manager for sewell for the last seven years or so. All the way back to when he and I used to collaborate with parts..

We're working on it everyone. The site was launch about 2 months earlier than planned, thus a number of categories have yet to be populated.

The GS400 should be the first model, closely followed by the GS300 and GS430 models. All 2nd generation.

Hang in there!
