    You may be able to find someone selling V2"s on the ultimate turn signal thread. I have both but keeping my V2"s as backups.

    What is your opinion on the difference between V2 and V3 since you have both? Whats the total cost again? $100?

    They are both great with the V2's a little darker making the signal more orange/red which some people may like. The V2'S cost more because they were completely hand made using OEM signal covers. I like them both but the signal on the V3 is much more noticeable.

    Ohhh ok! Not bad I see the difference better now. Ok V3 isn't bad at all and since they are cheaper I'd probably just go that route. Thanks for Sharing.

    Already know parts for vehicles come from subs from everywhere. Where’s “Plant #3” located at?
    What I found.....looks like Tijuana to me.

    So if the V2's are OEM, what are the V3's made from? Why do you have both?

    Those are some of his Ultimate mirrors. Those are built in Rigid ditch lights. On the bottom of the mirror are puddle lamps that come on automatically as you approach vehicle or when doors are opened.

    He contacted the manufacturer directly and had smoked signals made with no raised letters and no chrome. They are a brand new product, not modified stock lenses like the first two versions.

    They are made few and far between with all his other mods and you have to be lucky to get them when posted. He doesn't take orders so just have to watch for them. I bought the white ones because I couldn't wait and painted the covers lol.. they are awesome :yay:

    Looks so good! Would you please post exactly which VLED package you went with and then if you don't mind, a night time picture showing the projection and cutoff line. Thanks.

    There are several different options from what my dealer told me.
    1. You can sell to someone else and pay the lease off, just like you were buying the truck.
    2.You can opt to keep the truck.
    3. You can trade the truck in for another lease.
    4. You can just turn the keys in and walk away.

    I just don't know how detailed the service department guys when I take in the truck to be serviced. Do they communicate to the sales manager about modifications on leases? Also, I would hate to spend money on the truck for stuff like, wheels (which I REALLY want.....) only to take them off and sell them for lower than what I bought them for. I dunno. It could just be me being a princess, too..... BUT..... I do have a Harley Street Glide in the garage that is begging for parts too......
