    also this group buy is for complete retrofit kits and not just a plug n play HID kit. i believe that you have to buy at least a complete kit in order to get the group buy discount for your plug n play kits.

    dont quote me on that though. Keep an eye out, these group buys are quite popular. you might get a deal for black friday or christmas :) i dont know. just speculating hehe

    As stated a few posts above yours, it has ended, nor does it cover drop-in HID kits. Projector retrofits only.

    Yep, it arrived at like 10am after leaving GA on friday :eek: I'm planning on trying to take out my grille and lights tonight and bake/paint them tomorrow morning. Then do the final aiming/install on Wednesday if I'm lucky. Going on a drive to a friends cabin this weekend so I want to have it ready for all the dark, windy roads and lake I'll be driving on :D

    Haha, I have no idea. I thought I chose the cheapest USPS shipping, but maybe in my haste to place my order I chose the most expensive? Whatever, I'm not complaining ;) Even though there are tons of write-ups out there, I'll plan on taking pics along the way in case anybody wants another one, lol.

    I wonder if even though you chose cheapest shipping, I doubt they'll do ground to Alaska and upgraded it to air freight. I heard that passenger jets also carry mail and other packages, so your lights probably went straight from Atlanta airport to your closest major airport then out for delivery. Thats the only thing I can think of cause I'm only two states away and two business day delivery for ground shipping is normal.

    Yeah I'm assuming they upgraded the shipping, but I'm not complaining!

    Free shipping? I only saw ground as cheapest but not free. Either way heck of a deal. Got mine today but wont have time to even open the box till prob friday or saturday.
    Amber looks better but just my opinion. I ordered LEDs turn signals and am thinking i may just leave the lens out all together...

    I gave yellow a shot since my fogs and hellas are yellow but now I feel like that would be too much yellow.

    Do you need the resistors for the led blinkers?

    Long store involved in this one, but I ended up not blacking out the housings.

    Overall huge improvement over stock lighting for sure. I love it. I think I need to play around with how the drive side bulb is seated, as the cut-off is not as blue as passenger side. The driver side cut-off is angled slightly towards the passenger side as well. I dunno how it happened, as I aimed it perfectly level and then tightened it up, checked, tightened a tad more, checked levelness again and then sealed them up. Somehow in that process it got tilted a bit.
