There are a couple spots left... until inventory is at 0 the website will still take your order, once it runs out you will no longer be able to order for this GB, and we do not have room to make exceptions or squeeze anyone in like in the past, since we have a set number of housings.

To be absolutely honest, we've compared these lights to other OEM's. These blow the OEM Mazda HID's on the RX8 and similar out of the water as far as beam width and throw, and even give the infamous s2K HID's a run for their money for width/even lighting, with the added benefit of not relying on a halogen high beam. These are up there with newer Mercedes projectors (though without the motorized leveling obviously).

Not to toot our own horn, but we cut no corners in maxing out the FD lighting output while conforming to OEM specifications. There isn't a better lighting system for the FD out there, hands down. We realize we're not cheap but you definitely get what you pay for in this instance.

No need to sell us on the product anymore, we already ordered it

Cant wait for them. Its going to be so amazing to have lighting that doesnt absolutely SUCK like the oem FD lighting. (And in fact that gif makes it look like its more even lighting than my wifes Cadillac!)

If the website lets you order one there is an open spot. Once the inventory runs out on the website there are no more available spots left.

Youre probably looking at a 2 hour install plus 45min to aim them. It depends how quickly/carefully you work and how neatly you tuck in the wiring harness. I encourage everyone to read through the installation guide first before starting anything so you've got all the tools on hand.

We're always available by PM/Email to answer installation questions, and there are a couple hundred guys running these lights already so I'm sure other members would be happy to lend a hand if you get hung up. We've tried our best to make it as painless and intuitive as possible to install and aim them.

Now's a bad time to start getting anxious, we don't even have the components in yet. Probably another month or so.

We've already started modifying the housings for projectors. At this rate we'll be finished before the ballasts arrive. Supposedly they are due to arrive in three weeks.

Thanks Guys!

We're still waiting on ballasts to come in so it should be a few more weeks at least, but we're trying to speed up the process and have everything ready to go when they arrive.
