    I believe tail lights are in the works. Did you manage to get them adjusted properly without issues?

    Smart move. I think I’m also going to raise high beams a bit. Three cranks with the ratchet for peace of mind.;)

    It's not necessary based on no one else mentioning them. I gave them a good flex when installing mine and nothing of concern.

    His setup was three Bi-LED projectors, each of which is probably 2-3x the weight of the existing XB LED projectors.

    As mentioned above some will ship this week but not all. Please have patience guys after all this is a group buy and organizing these are a pain. For those who are impatient you can always cancel and reorder at regular price and they'll ship probably same day or tomorrow. Again patience is key guys :ballchain:

    Guess im waiting another month. It went from folks who order from January to May will get theirs first.

    Then the 2nd batch will ship the week of October 14.

    Now only the folks who order in June is consider in the 2nd batch.

    Let me know when you find out for the folks who order in July...

    Only reason i waited so long was due to all of the delay... i was hoping that if i just wait until deadline to order i would be good. I guess that is not the case... i am not apart of the folks who ordered after the deadline........

    Second batch is end of June until August. Some of the second batch will ship this week but not all. Since the first batch, I've learned a few things. Imagine 50 people receiving their lights at the same time and most having some issues or small problems and need things fix. I'm still trying to get a few orders fixed from the first batch. So this is why the second batch has been delayed but. Those thar are impatient, what if you received your lights this week only to see you have some issues and can't use them still? So again guys have patience please. Some will begin shipping this week

    Does this mean you are now doing QC on all lights going forward as to prevent these issues from happening? In the event of an unfix-able issue are you just shipping out replacement headlights?

    I think my Christmas gift this year is stress. And it doesn't help when people are impatient even after receiving a huge discount which can't be found anywhere else. :annoyed:
