    So, we need the H4/9003 relay, correct? Everything else is pretty much personal choice (except LHD of course)?

    For those of you with orders in this round:

    We have a two week period in limbo where we're waiting for our revised harnesses to come in. Would you prefer to:

    1) Close this round, ship ASAP when harnesses arrive.
    2) Keep round open, ship all that make it in the next two weeks together.

    Improvements:

    All new Motocontrol Box, slightly more compact with better weatherproofing
    All new control board
    All new weatherproof connector between relay box and harness body, more compact, stronger, and quick disconnect
    All new injection molded and waterproof fuse holder
    Thicker wiring for all outputs

    Please advise!

    hey Andrew
    placed my purchased last night for this round. and if im reading the options correctly, either option I choose, we (those who ordered for this round) still get our kits shipped as soon as the new harness arrives, correct? it's just a matter of keeping the round open so more members can make their purchase while we wait?

    Correct. Either way it will be two weeks, but do you all who are already of the ten want to keep it open or close it off?

    since this is a group buy for all 10 members who just made their purchased, ill go with the what the majority of the 9 members decide to do.

    my vote is im ok with option 2 and keeping it open, as long as the first 10 of this group gets their kit shipped first in the event that there is a harness supply shortage.

    thanks andrew
