Hi Jay.

Unless I'm missing something, I can't see any prices on your export website. Euros, dollars, pounds...

Hi Shambles,

Below each picture there seems to be a suggested cost for the item.
Look for something like this, 가 격 = 99 000 원, below the picture of the item:

Pretty sure this means the item cost is 99 000 Korean Won ( which, in Aussie Dollars, is about $99)
I guess there would be extra taxes, fees, handling costs, delivery costs , etc, etc

10x a lot for your interest in this club, I really want to buy some stuff from you but I need all the details, 10x a lot mate

I'm from Kyungkido Bundang. Actually i used to live in Australia as well. Lived in Brisbane for about 6month, Sydney 3years, Canberra about a year. Gash canberra was such a boring town. By the way this is how we do it.
We charge 20% service fee. So lets say item cost $10. $10+($10 of 20%=$2)+shipping (example $3)=$15
We only send items in EMS which you can track it down. Also we don't charge shipping per item. We charge shipping all together. So will save money if you purchase 1+.

Could do worse than use Google, like this...

Does anyone know if I can add in steering wheel controls for the SX as an after-thought? I'm the sort of the girl who NEVER changes volume or tracks... just thought it might be fun if I do decide to get it after some time..

Wow a girl

Never saw a girl here!

Well, here's what I think. My i30 also doesn't has the steering wheel controls. And I also want it. But I think it will not be easy to install these. Because our i30 probably doesn't have the wires to control the volume from the radio to the steering wheel. So we'll have to place wires to the radio, probably removing the whole dashboard ...
And also, does the radio have the connectors to connect the modules?
I should go to the dealer if you really want to add them.

Here's were you can get them:

Hey Nick,

About 17% of those who answered our Male or Female Poll are female (11 out of about 65 "votes")

So we could have more than 50 female members now

I was looking at Honda Jazz, Yaris and I30 before I took the leap the bought I30.. kinda wish sometimes I got the Jazz coz for the same price I paid I could have gotten the top of the range with alloys and steering wheel controls. Only prob is I was looking for a safer car than my pulsar and the Jazz was fun but felt unsafe. So I went to the I30. When my guy friend saw the cars I tested, he said, "You're determined to get a chick's car, hey?" So yup, I'm actually surprised that more blokes drives the i30. It's too cute to be a bloke's car...

Well, I agree with you. I also see the car more as a car for a girl. The car is smooth just like a woman

It's really easy to drive says my gf.

And I think you mean boyfriend instead of guyfriend

Close but no cigar! Guy friend is my boyfriend's brother. My boyfriend is just sick of me worrying about my car! I find something to worry about each day--> price, colour, no steering wheel controls...but it's true that I DO still, at times, kick myself for not getting Honda Jazz...better resale and cuter! but not that safe...

You're probably not old enough to remember this .... But what you talkin' about Willis

New model Jazz looks better than the previous one but i30 has more character (and resale will be surprisingly good - by all accounts)

Cazza · **Reply #18: January 21, 2009, 21:57:39**

Hmm.. I'm probably older than you think...

Nah, overall I'm glad I didn't get the Jazz coz it's becoming a "beige" car. I saw like 10 on the road just driving home from Uni... Just like the Mazda 3s, the corollas... yuck yuck yuck! Maybe it's because the Honda people were so nice but the Hyundai people I went to wouldn't budge on price or anything. Maybe it's because ALL my freaking guy friends are Honda or Mazda fans. Maybe it's because when I told Dad my final choice is a Hyundai, he said "Sell it in 3 years before it completely breaks down."

Don't think he has seen the i30 yet!

I just want to know now if I can put steering wheel controls on. Not too fussed if I can't. I'll just add alloy wheels to make it up! Writing an email to Hyundai now to ask about that... and also telling them to get their act together to send a couple more units of SX with those airbags stuff so people like me don't have to choose between taking floor stock or waiting 3 months.

As for resale, I really hope Hyundai keep pushing the Getz or Santa Fe something else to increase their bottom line this year and leave the i30 alone... I'm worried all the time about impending factory discounts on the i30 come March when they need to clear the 08 MY09s...that will definitely kill resale value. Like my boyfriend's spanking new Mazda 6...we bought it at a 3 k discount and 4 months later, they gave him free servicing to 60000k because they dropped the price to... shock... 32000! He bought it for 36k! It was still a very nice car though.

Diva · **Reply #19: February 04, 2009, 11:13:42**

i30 definetely has character.... my i30 sr was well worth every cent as i dont need to add a single thing.

STILL LOVIN` IT!!!!!

To late Cazza, The i30 just went drive away this month. It would always happen at some point, but I wouldnt have picked it to happen right now as its just come off winning Australias best mid size car. Dont worry about resale. Its really only an issue if you wish to sell inside the first couple of years. Hyundai resale is actually not that bad, but like most things, when it comes to hyundai, the public perception is lower than reality.

Unfortunately the public perception (whether right or wrong) largely determines the second-hand value!

All this really means is that the smart people (assuming perception is lower than reality) will get a bargain up the track... so long as the cars hold up and do not earn a really bad reputation by falling apart in which case we are all stuffed!

I've driven several cars from new to 3 years old and so far this one is at least as good as any, and from my evaluation the best so far! :-)

No, I've not had a MB or BMW or in fact anything over $35K but this is a different market and I suspect few here have bothered with the top-end stuff - or have had the where-with-all.

Enjoy what you have while you have it!

I have to say that the i30 is every bit as well built as my previous 3 Imprezas, if not slightly better.

Greetings..

I also want to add this control to my wife's car. I went to the web site mentioned and I see the price for the control is $49 and some cents, not sure what postage will be??
I was also wondering if all i30 models have a standard wiring harness and all that is required is to add the audio steering control and maybe an audio plug to the radio?

Where are the i30 auto electricians ... or someone who has a manual that can check the wiring diagrams?

Any advice will be much appreciated.
