    Could I get an estimate of how long the entire retrofit process would take?

    he's a busy guy with a day job....patience is a virtue.
    im sure everyone knows at this point that its a 3-4 month endeavor. but i've met and seen his work in person and he doesn't half-ass it...takes his time to make sure everyone is satisfied with the product.

    When you're done with mine let me know. I have a different address for you to ship them to. I'll be in and out of state for a while. Thanks, man.

    With the amount of money spent on these, what does everyone do to prevent the oxidation of the lenses?

    I haven't heard from him for a few weeks, despite phone call, sms, email, and pm. And that's after he missed three appointments with me. Hope he's ok, but I'm moving on to another installer now.

    I talked to Burt just now and he has been busy and said he will be back next week. Bare with him.

    Hello TW,

    I must apologize to everyone for my lack of communication and really lack of being around the last few weeks. I'm not going to go fully into detail regarding why but I'll say that I've been dealing with some personal things outside of trucks that include the family business (which is priority) and a recent death of my long time quality inspector. I've known him since I was 15. Really put some things into perspective for me and what goals I see for myself long term.

    I am committed to completing the orders I have on the table for those that have sent deposits. However, I am no longer taking future orders. I will still be retrofitting but doing it on my own terms. Once my current orders are completed, I will be offering one off completed retrofits to TW one at a time on a first come first serve basis.

    This will allow me to 1) work on my free time 2) be completely creative in things I want to see done 3) free myself to other opportunities

    While retrofits are important, I can no longer see making it a full time job. Thank you everyone that has reached out and thanks to those that have been patient and understanding.

    I'll be back up and running full force once my shop is fully moved over (done by next Friday).

    Again, my apologies for my absence and thanks to everyone that's been waiting. I did not mean to worry you.
