    I think I might have aimed my headlights a bit too high. I was getting flashed by multiple drivers on my way to work this morning.

    Did you adjust them per instructions or just eyeball it and think "close enough"?

    Their shipping weekly as I explained in the previous post! Once your order is next up you'll receive a shipping email.

    When did you order? This group buy didn't start until end of February and everyone that ordered earlier this year received their lights. There's only July-August left not including new orders.

    4 projector. However the REX part looks pretty cheap and generic. Unlike the new 2020 head lights r MESO’s.

    Competition of course! They know Morimoto is the leading aftermarket lighting company and needs to compete. But their quality and performance is no where near Morimoto which is why the headlights are cheaper. Some people only want looks so they buy cheaper lights but they lose performance and reliability. That's why Morimoto have 5 year warranty and other companies only warranty for a few months if they offer a warranty.

    Any news on the shipping for the folks that did not get their preoder ship yet?

    how come the folks who preorder before the deadline still have to wait?

    How is it that if you pay full price now you’ll get them ship right away... but if they preorder with you since June/July they have to wait until everything is sort out?

    sounds like trs order now is taking priorty over the folks who preorder...

    Unless you have 1 million preorder to fulfill...

    Because group buy has to be shipped in groups. Regular orders are shipped individually and therefore able to shio immediately. Because there's such a huge discount with the orders, they are processed differently and require a bit more time to get processed. And yes there's alot of orders to get processed, way more than was expected. Especially after sending so many lights out at the same time in the first batch, things are being handled differently this time around.

    Again there shipping out weekly, not all at once like with the first batch. Patience is the price you pay for a huge discount. Especially on these headlights as you won't ever find another deal on these like in the group buy.

    But that's why there's options for those who don't want to wait. This is also a reason why TRS changed there Pre-order policy lol.
