Hello Fellow Forum Members and Visitors!

RE: Dealership deals and the Hyundai Accessory Mall

My nick is "partguy'...my name is Kevin and I'm the parts manager and import purchaser for the Van Horn "Hyundai Accessory Mall". I have over 16 years in import purchasing and sourcing in the bicycle and automotive industries. We opened our dealership in late May of '03 and at that time it was apparent to me that little was being offered in accessories for the Santa Fe and I began looking at what was out there and available. I think Kotowong at TFR has done an amazing job at sourcing and putting together a great selection. Hats off to you!

Our primary reason for wanting to import Domestic Korean accessories was to put together new custom Santy's that few other dealers in the whole country are doing so we could set ourselves apart from the rest of the dealers that are just pumping cars out. To stand out from the crowd you might say. Problems of product availability and lead times for container shipments from half way around the world have left gaps in product supply to meet accessory demand also...so naturally we are seeking customers for the products we import. Because we are also a Hyundai dealer we also offer the items the Hyundai Motor America is offering. So we have more of a one stop shop.

Gopack told me to make a posting when I was finished getting up our new site and it is now completed. You can now see the Hyundai Accessory Mall and our selection at this address: fdlhyundai.com/accessorymall/home.html
Or click on our banner at the top of the Dealership Deals section.

You can visit our custom creation cars at:
fdlhyundai.com/customcreations1.html
At this time there are two santys pictured here and we have just finished shooting more that have been loaded up and we
will be posting them shortly so check back from time-to-time.
If you are in the market to purchase...visit our dealership homepage.

There is a link on our site to email questions if you may have them or you can call the tollfree number on the site and ask for Kevin or Brad and we will be happy to answer any questions that you may have. We can also service any of your parts needs and I beleive that for the most part we can and will be competitve on pricing. If there are items that you'ld like to see us add...just drop us a note and we'll make an effort to do so. We have plans to add lighting products and there are a huge number of domestic items that we are planning to add in future shipments so please visit us from time to time. We will be building on this site and evetually take it to e-mall store status. We will add more indepth product discriptions and more pictures of parts installed on Santys as well.

I am amazed at the community, openess and sharing that takes place on this forum. I've been telling my contacts at Hyundai that they need to get someone monitoring this site so they can have a better grasp on who there customers are and what they want. I think Jason and the mod squad are doing great things and it can only get better as more people own and enjoy the Santa Fe...

Happy Motoring!
