Updated list of payment received.
I'll be shipping out the next batch when my LED shipment come in early next week. Also, installation instructions will be up this weekend. My current webserver the PDF is hosted on is being moved to another location so it's been unavailable currently.

I might need some white LED's soon. I'm getting sick of the interior overhead lighting in my car.
Also, I see the 9500i in your siggy list. You got it installed??? If so, congrats!! Only cool people can have such a badass radar detector.
I'm glad to hear these are being shipped and people are pleased with the quality. That's awesome bro, knew you could pull it off!

ok well i just finished installing 1 puddle light(didnt have other taps to do other side) and i must say anything that couldve gone wrong did. it was a pain in the *** for me. first off i broke one of the pins on the mirror assembly, i couldnt disconnect the damn speaker connector, the led was blown out, i couldnt for the life of my get the puddle light in the mirror housing(didnt see the recess for the tab to go into, the door panel wouldnt go back on and finally the mirror wouldnt adjust down so i had to pull it back off and readjust it
. i figured out all the issues that i was having and i know that the second light will go a lot smoother. so two and a half hours later
i am happy with the light just tired from the install. btw the problems i had were in NO way shazbots fault. ill post pics once i get the second light in.

yes i am not very mechanically inclined but i installed the filter, short shifter, helped with the suspension ,did the strut bar and did the clear corners. nothing major by any means. all the problems i ran into were simple little things and could have been avoided.

If you had said "none", then I would've known.

none taken at all! i think that getting the light into the housing took me the longest to do only because i didnt see the recess in the mirror so i was trying to get the light in every different angle until someone pointed the recess out me. other than that the other problems were resolved smoothly and quickly

I zoom therefore I am.
A few days have gone by and the lights are still making me smile when I go to my car in the dark.
If anyone in the nor cal bay area wants a hand with their install just send me a PM.

nice camera work on the 1st post! I always had a bitch of a time trying to photograph these things.
Note to self: ask Santa for a new camera.

I got mine last week and installed the drivers side on Sunday. The kit is great! I'm going to have to get my car into a heated garage to do the passenger side though. One of the plastic sockets on the back of the mirror broke when I was removing it. I guess it was a little brittle from the cold.
