    So to clarify there is no good place to buy ready to install retrofits w/o getting ripped off? I was looking until I read this and other places have similar practices.

    It’s a dicey mod. Headlights and armor seem to have the highest business failure rates.

    I'm glad I didn't jump in to order too quick. I read the thread first then go from there. I would hate to wait too long for my order.

    Its not a difficult thing to do. I did mine and it only took a weekend. Anyone who is comfortable working with their hands, painting, and doing a little bit of electrical can do it. Very easy process and save a ton of time and frustration.

    Bxbuilt headlight and TEQ Customs are both good vendors IMO. I have bxbuilt and very happy with the communication and turn around time.

    I'm happy to give any help I can. I just watched youtube videos on it and just basically followed them. theretrofitsource.com has lots of great info and parts.

    So you've been saying since March that you'll have all order done by the end of summer but in that amount of time you've only completed 2? 3? orders. you still have 6 more orders to do. AND you have yet to rectify the situation with @Sterdog and @owl0990
    So let's do the math... 3 orders in 4 months. and 6 more orders to go. at your current rate of completion thats another 8 months out at least. Well past summer. there's only 2-1/2 months left to the end of summer. how do you plan on getting all of those orders done in that span of time? pick up the pace or start giving refunds. sell your boat, truck, a kidney, i don't give a shit. raise the money somehow to get these people their money back.
    and don't say that you've already stated you'll have the orders done. WE DON'T BELIEVE YOU.
