These are being replicated as soon as possible. I actually plan on using these lights myself so I'm in just as much of a hurry to have them produced as everyone else. I expect we'll be providing updates very shortly...

I really just need the fiberglass shell; don't need the brackets/lights/etc. As soon as the shell is completed, let me know.

Also, since I'll be heavily modifying them, a blemished shell would be fine by me! I just need the mounting tabs intact.

Hey everyone, I've been in contact with Ramy regarding production of these. We're hoping to have pricing finalized very shortly. One of the reasons for the slight delay is that we're making improvements on the structural design of the kit i.e. strengthening the buckets and reinforcing the brackets. As soon as I have more information, I will post it up. Thanks!

Lighting is the one thing being finalized right now. We are currently working out the details on this and as soon as I know, I'll relay that information.


UPDATE: The new buckets and brackets are complete. We're working out the details on the lighting and headlight covers. I'm hoping the pricing will be finalized within this week so we can start the official GB. Thanks for being patient

Headlight covers? You mean clear headlight lenses?

Yes, that's exactly what I meant. Sorry for not being more specific. We're working on optional clear headlight lenses for this kit.

Got any pics of what you got so far? Don't be shy, c-mon now! Could you hint on a ball-park price as well? Thanks.

Cool, thanks for making that an option.

Can we order the buckets now? I don't need lights.

What's the diameter of the original headlamps?

Probably the best match would be the Hella 5-1/4" http://www.rallylights.com/detail.aspx?ID=351 for the lows and the Hella 90mm for the highs http://www.rallylights.com/detail.aspx?ID=127

or go with the more expensive IPFs (which the orginals were anyways, at least the old version, I think)
