Default Looking for dealer - OMP parts

I'm looking for a warehouse in the states which is big enough to have lots of OMP stuff inSTOCK...

I want a special steering wheel. OMP America was helpful but sent me back to our German dealers. But they have nothing in stock and are unable or not willing to order parts from Italy. It's stupid when I as an European must import European stuff from the states I know... but nobody wants to help me here... They don't know anything, they can't find that wheel in their lists, they say they call back but they don't... man... I'm tired of this.

All I can do is check the websites of dealers but they don't tell me if parts are in stock. So which warehouse is big enough (and sends parts to a military address? )

I've had good success with Driving impressions:

http://www.ompusa.com/

&

The Drivers Edge:

http://www.ompwins.com/

Don't let the site names fool you, they link to the companies websites.

Good luck

yes and no...

The wheel "Quadro" is legal on my car... But the OD/1970 is not longer offered. It has been replaced by a newer generation, I would like to purchase:

Here:
http://www.ompracing.com/detai...%2004



Nobody seems to have it in stock and ompwins.com doesn`t sell to the public

Dear Sven,
thank you for your interest in OMP products. Unfortunately, we do not sell to the public and it would be more economical and faster for you to order from one of our German distributors.
I have attached a link to the Sandtler website (www.sandtler.de) for the product you are looking for.
Please let me know if I can be of further assistance.

Best regards,

</TD></TR></TABLE>

So what does this http://www.sandtler.de site/company say?

How about: http://www.primmracing.com/catalog/

Gotta admit I'm having trouble finding the exact wheel you want but if we can get it and you can't, do you want one of us to try and get it and ship it to you?

OMPWINS.COM is run by Frank at Driver's Edge here in Vancouver.

He has the new Quadro wheels in stock - even hanging on the wall - I saw the new ones there when I was at the shop on Thursday.

Call him at (604) 298 5575 - he won't take orders off the internet - just the phone.

He is the major distributor of OMP in Canada and the Western US.

Those dealers here just talk bla bla bla.....

I even don`t know the price of this wheel hahaha ! It`s crazy.

Yeah, if somebody could get it for me, I surely would send a paypal payment to a guy I trust..

I'm working with Demon-Tweeks to see if I can get the wheel for you. I will have an answer later today or tomorrow.

ttt.

And still there`s no solution is sight... I really wonder why in the world it is so difficult to sell a simple wheel to a customer who wants to pay the price and shipping in the year 2004....

I sent a mail to OMP-Italy. No reaction.

Have you tried contacting demon-tweeks yourself ? I go there very often and they are very helpful and send parts all over the world.

try this link http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/...d=OMP

or just http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk

Phone them if you want be sure of a result.

Thats funny, almost every single interior mod on my car was bought there, I consider myself public.

Call him. If he can't help you out, I'll go there and buy it for you.

Something unexpected happened...... a miracle.

A lady of http://www.Sandtler.de called me today and spoke to my mailbox. She said she had a call with italy and they can get the wheel until mid of July. It`s price is 162 Euros.....

Thanks to you all. It seems the problem can be solved.
