    I have a vacuum forming machine could try to use a thin amber colored sheet and mold around the light. Haven't seen any covers for these just yet.

    Shipment still coming tomorrow Jasper?

    ^ i thought about that as well, i have one sitting in my garage, but.. wait. i was originally worried about it melting with HIDs. the led bars won't put out enough heat from the front to have to worry about that though. that's a possibility. but where to find the sheets locally would be the problem. sure you can order them online, but you can also order pre-made covers online too. and if you vacuum form, though i've only done thin stuff, i'd be worried about the strength from a tree smack or a giant rock flying up.

    i'd still rather have amber LEDs though lol

    The amber leds would be better. But sheets of petg, lexan or whatever are relatively cheap so if it broke making another would be easy. They sell 4'x8' sheets where I get my sheets for r/c car bodies. Just a thought.

    Have you seen covers for these online somewhere?

    not these exact bars, but the sizing can't be off much if any from all the other LED bars and pods. those covers are readily available online. ebay and Amazon have a ton.
    yeah but what about colored lexan? i wish lowes or home depot sold those!

    What is up with the 6" single row LED? Is it back in stock yet? The website still shows "New shipment expected Jan 25th"

    Also I am interested in both the spot and flood 3" LED light pods but it seems that only the spot focus is available online. What is up with that?

    Don't know. Brightest ones that I know of are XML. But those are expensive and I doubt are used on these.

    6" pods did not come in as expected. Guaranteed arrival date (to me), Feb 5th!

    I will start emailing people that had separate orders but the general idea is this:

    Anyone who had an order with 6" pods was being held for combined shipping. Since the pods are not here, we will be breaking up the shipments. Anything else you ordered will be shipped out tomorrow. Everything is packed up and ready to be picked up. There are a couple of options for the 6" pods. If you want to continue to wait for them, they will ship out on the 5th USPS priority which gets to you in 2-3 days. If you want to cancel the 6" pods, we can do that as well. I just want people to be happy.

    For those that are nervous (I'm calling you out bkmcinty :D), I have been in business since 2007 with nearly 100% happy customers. I really think that customer service is a huge priority and I will do everything in my power to keep that reputation. Here is a quick snap of some orders waiting to see Mr. Mailman (only a very small portion of this is TW orders, most is just normal off-road stuff). Many people have already received their orders and have posted photos of the lights here as well.

    Whew! Sigh of relief :D I was not quite to the "F it I lost my money and learned my lesson" but was starting to worry! Don't worry about the delayed responses I'm sure you are very busy and yes so far your service has been great from the emails we have exchanged. Still waiting on those tracking numbers and yes I'm busting balls here ;) mine was supposed to be here today but did not come I have no idea where they are but hoping they will come in tomorrow as I doubt they will be moving on the weekends!! As soon as I get mine there will be a woot woot post and I will be posting pics of them installed THE DAY I get them :D cheers I'm mixing another one.....
