Mank, I too totally dislike Scrappy Dog, not because of pricing, but because they ship parts that have previously been installed (master cylinder), and they don't know how parts are supposed to work and they don't test them (Helix PTC coolant sensor).

John on the other hand is a good man, an honest parts seller, takes constructive criticism well, and offers help freely without any personal motives. He tests many of the parts before shipping, runs an honest company and keeps his shipping costs in line.

He gave you a good answer, just because you don't like it, please don't slam him.

Everything, I purchase in life can be had at a lower price. The point here is about the seller not the price. You pointed out something you feel is negative. I pointed out something positive and asked a question.

Based on all the mods to your scooter, I suspect you know what to do with the two wires. Parts of the post might be for other reasons. and this is my .02

sorry about the "slamming" john i guess i just misunderstood what you were saying, i really should have just replied and see what you had to say vs ripping your head off / bad mouthing you just because i got a little pissy = p. I'm quite interested in what you may have to offer parts wise John, that is if you would even want to deal with me.

I wasn't inclined to reply to the original posting here, as the lights are pretty straight forward DC wires, and they are polarity protected, and the comment about something cheaper on ebay doesn't bother me either. While we do keep our price points better than most, there are some things that aren't. The reason for this is there are different grades of parts made in china, and many of our parts are of taiwanese origin. While parts may look the same to the unskilled eye, or over the internet in a picture, they are not the same. If price is your only concern, and not quality or support, etc, then you will likely find some cheapo parts on ebay, and it's your choice to seek those cheap parts if you wish.
What was disturbing and confusing, was the post 'bull', who stated a few things incorrectly. We do not sell used parts, period, and not sure where that came from, and I don't recall anyone complaining about such a thing. That part didn't need responding to either. The statement that I do not know what our parts are or how they work was the offensive part. I myself have over 30 years in the professional motorcycle parts and repair business, and have been in scooter parts/repair for 8 of those years. I hold several patents for motorcycle/scooter engineering designs, and some of our parts are actually design and blueprinted by myself. Our tech, MO, who is available to everyone, free of charge, at tech@scrappydogscooters.com, has himself been in the continuous professional repair business for over 25 years. I'm not sure how that accusation could be made, but perhaps Bull was referring to one of our gals that answer the phones and are not tech's on hand and are trained in order placement and customer service. All of our parts are inspected, but not tested, except electronic items. Things like master cylinders, or cylinders, or cranks and such are not tested, as they would then become used, and with the price point of such items, it is not viable to test every single part. We're not talking about $1200 BMW cranks here, and even BMW doesn't test their cranks, or any other part.
Just thought I'd make that clear, that while you are not going to get a tech, or a mechanic over the phone that knows everything about your scooter, or how to fix it for you, you can be assured that the owner, and it's online tech, are far from not knowing what they are selling, or how the parts work.

Thanks a ton for clearing that up Rick, I didn't mean to spark any sort of fires or anything for what its worth ( coming from me ) i ( along with MANY others ) consider Scrappy Dog Scooters / Chinese scooter parts .com to be a UPSTANDING,and PROFESSIONAL establishment. I really singled you out on the intake price and i apologize for jumping to conclusions as i really didn't even take a minute to consider the customer support that you all provide VS these automated listing - Chinese sellers ( who are ok for the most part but MANY do not operate legitimately and their almost non existent customer correspondence ). Best Wishes and thanks for the answer regarding the dc wires!
