    I really love the way the Black/Smoke looks on the MGM trucks. Would you be ok if we used your pictures? Do you have an instagram?

    Some time things go wrong. But the way you handle it say a lot about a company and I have to say i am being taken care of and at the end of the day that's what's important

    I went to install the Red ones I bought and there was no 4th contact lead on the drivers side turn signal. Have a pending RMA with tacomabeast.

    Jason is who I've been speaking with. I will say that Winjet has been actively trying to help with this issue. I bought the lights through Amazon from a third party vendor. The vendor MB Auto and Truck accessories looks to be sending me a replacement set.

    Other than the radio reception issues, I don't recall having any other problems with the lights. They worked fine, just couldn't listen to any FM radio stations.

    Sounds like an easy fix to me, stop listening to FM radio. Who listens to OTA radio anymore anyway?! JK........I turned mine on the other day to catch the game. LOL Would be interesting to know if it also happens with other audio sources. Like your phone or a jump drive. Very weird, but also very cool everyone is doing what they can to rectify the issue. Of course forums like this one could make or break a new company so it goes without saying....but it is good testament to their integrity.

    I only listen to FM in the morning! No other sources have been affected. Bluetooth and satellite are all working fine.

    That is great to hear and I apologize that you had that issue in the first place. Please feel free to contact me on here if you have any other questions or concerns

    I am very sorry for this, I will be making a note to our Quality Control personnel about this issue.

    We are hoping that this may be an isolated issue, however, we are trying to actively figure out what could have caused this and if you happen to know anyone else or if anyone else on this thread has this same issue, please contact us. (Winjet)

    I completely understand we are hoping that the issue is an isolated issue as there have only been 2 instances (one of which was resolved by sending out a new set) where this has happened out of all the lights we have sold but we are going to do some tests on the lights when we receive @crashdb lights back

    I don't personally listen to the radio much nowadays, however, we do want to make sure that whoever has our lights on their vehicle has full function of everything

    Got my replacement installed after a week of waiting and I'm having the severe FM reception issue, I took videos of the occurrence(s) was/is there a solution to this?

    ^ I think the solution was to not listen to the radio anymore..
    Man that's a bummer, to aren't the first person with that issue. Last I read, their engineers are looking into it/ trying to source the problem.

    Question: does the reception drop when the brake lights are appplied? Or when the headlights are on? None of the above? Would help us pinpoain't the circuit that is causing this backfeed or radiated interference.
