Note: Beginning in July 2021, New EU IOSS regulations were implemented that require us to ship orders €150 or less, including shipping (EU) to business addresses only. EU orders shipping to private parties must be more than €150. If you are a private party that needs items that total less than €150, if you can find a business that will receive your shipment, we will ship to them. The business does not need to be automotive-related.

We have discovered that shipping via Postal service does not hold up these less than €150  shipments, so we may substitute USPS shipping at our discretion.

MWR Economy Shipping (Domestic) Approximately five days in transit, possibly longer. No guarantees for service levels.
