there is a shop off of Glover Rd in Langley by the bypass that is the distributor for them.  They aren't the greatest at answering phone messages or any means of getting back to you.  I can't remember the shop's name but if you go West on the last street before the bypass as you head South.  They are in the first or second driveway on the left.

Thats good to know, I thought they had closed down from a fire? Dan if you read this I think you should get out to the GCVWS and let the people know your shop is open  and going strong.

roger that. i keep forgetting that this place even exists because there is absolutely no advertising/marketing for it. i dont think i'm the only one either....

i know it's a tough run owning and operating a small independent shop in a limited market...but you gotta get your face/product/flyers/name/work out there. ;)

Concept 1 isn't an official distributor of the panels, but he buys enough of Gersons stuff for his own projects he may as well be. If an order is being placed I'm sure he would add it to the list.

yeah the Guy in langley is the new distributor in Canada but can be real hard to get stuff from. I was sick of waiting so went with Ronnie at old volks in Arizona. Shipped pretty much next day and has my stuff within a week. I use a freight forwarder on the Island Seawings Express, ship ups to their Blaine address then they bring it in bonded. This way you do all your own customs work and sav e $$$$ By the way no duty on parts for vintage vehicles only taxes. I have done this a few times with Ronnie and he is great to deal with.
