    Is there any list to see how many people to go until the group buy ships out? I just joined the site and came looking for TRS info on which shrouds would fit and this came up. What an awesome deal! Thanks to TRS for the discount!

    I helped a buddy put an H1 kit in his silverado and really want to put one in my truck now! I'd love to save some coin too though, so if the list is getting full, I may jump on board!

    Looking at a retro in the near future: anyone got pics with gatling gun shrouds and xb halos? also what size for the halos.

    also for the d2s kit linked in op are the xb halos standard or do they need to be ordered separately.

    I have some in my build thread, I know the interior halo size is 100mm not sure about the exterior. TRS has them on their website though

    If i just wanted to replace my existing Halogens Can i just purchase the HID and just replace it and is that the one its discounted? Was thinking about purchasing HID headlights and get the fog light that you guys have. Let me know which ones you recommend and I will be ordering very soon! Thank you

    According to the first post, you can't just purchase the HID kit with the discounted price. The only way to get it discounted is if you purchase it along side the Stage III kit

    "
    - Mini H1 Stage III
    - Mini D2S Stage III
    - FX-R Stage III

    We can add in an elite kit and also apply it to that discount, but you must also have a Stage III kit in your cart to do so. "

    Sorry for the delay here guys, in a panic over the open house and ensuring it goes smoothly.

    They ship as they're placed. No delay!

    If you have a 2012+ and thus can run the Type T LED fogs I strongly recommend those, otherwise you will need to retrofit in something. :)

    They ship as they're placed. No delay!

    Andrew, what is going to pack the most performance with the 5000k bulbs as far as the shrouds are concerned? What would the ultimate setup be in the constraints of this GB using the Morimoto parts and ballasts?
    Thanks!

    When selecting halos, what size is correct for tacomas? I'd like them to look like this:

    Depends on your shroud choice

    I would personally go with 50w / 5000K for the best performance, which falls within the confines of the group buy still.

    Depends on the shroud ultimately, but this guide should help: http://www.theretrofitsource.com/diy-installation-guides/xb-led-halos-sizing-guide.html.

    Remember guys, even if it's not going on a Tacoma, it's technically still valid since you're a TW member. Let's start retrofitting relatives' cars and neighbors too!

    You mean I just ordered a kit and paid full price because I couldn't wait for there to be 25 people and now you aren't waiting for there to be 25 people? :confused:

    I'm not sure as I didn't help you directly when you placed your order--did you order right off the website?

    For a little perspective, this is the generic H1 projectors you can find all over ebay (top) versus our tuned Morimoto Mini H1 6.0s:

    This is the same bulb and ballast with the same camera settings.
