It comes down to form vs function, I guess. Compared to the MB look, it
is quite a bit longer so yes, it can be viewed as more 'in your face' and
gaudy. On the flip side, the longer light bar isn't all that out of place when
compared to other cars with blinker mirrors. Can be seen a little easier. So
I dont see it so much as 'cheap' vs different than the original. Then again,
I have no qualms about driving a 23 yr old pick up truck either.

i see your point (quality of construction) if it's that shoddily made. i saw
one similar but different brand and the cover was thick and well constructed,
the LED lens was well sealed w/silicon and mounted securely on the inside.
thought it was just same OEM or something, but maybe not. tnx i still think
they can be a good alternative to OEM w/o spending several hundred $

son's car? uhh.....that's a bit of a stretch.
thinking.....don't buy them because if I put them on, someone will steal
them. uhh......these are penny ante items, not forged rims, or HID
headlights....for goodness sake.
I think you're being a bit of a drama queen on this one.

Yeah... $2200.00 worth of drama queen. A friend of mine has had two pair stolen. They break off the whole mirror usually scratching and denting the doors. That is the facts.

Yeah... $2200.00 worth of drama queen. That is the cost of replacement after they rip them off of your car. I have the reciepts to prove it ...but I don't have to. Check with your friendly MB dealer.

Assuming you're not aware of what Alex is doing with his car or what he has done so far, it is definitely not "boring"......the extent and money spent on it is by no means mundane and will definitely "shock" you. And BTW the teasing is really the result of technical difficulties encountered with very innovative ideas and not intended...so back off and enjoy the rest of this forum.

In the same light, who are you to tell me I don't have the rights to tell someone to back off anyway?
This forum has never been this abusive until so many newbies started to come on, that is probably why so many old timers don't come here anymore...losing a lot of useful experience and knowledge, sad.................

It's just so sad that this forum has someone like you. Insulting people and tell others to back off or leave. May I ask you a question. Is this forum yours? This is a public place and people should behave themselves and respect others.
Wow, what is the difference between a newbie to the forum and an old timer like you? Is there any differences in position in this forum? Is an old timer entitled to more rights like telling new memebers to back off blah blah blah?

We all have rights to put in what we think and feel in this forum. whether you like it or not, you can choose to ignore it if it doesn't tickle your fancy. If anyones been out of line, I'm sure the Moderator's will know how to do their job.
And looking at the no. of times you've posted here, i think you'll need to scan through the forum and see how the forum works before you shoot off your mouth next time and telling people that they have a bad attitude.

Son, I don't even want to go there, you know what I mean.
[quote]Buddy...you need to read the threads carefully and conscientiously before you mouth out like that. He didn't tell anyone to pi$$ off.

You also should read my post carefully. I said "Telling people to back off is impolite and telling people to pi$$ off is even worse" It means it's impolite that he tells someone to backoff and it WILL (not happened luckily) be even worst to tell others to pi$$ off.
That's the problem I wanted to point out. Old timers always stereotype on new comers. What ashame! I think new comers should be more welcomed and encouraged to input more knowledge. You have to understand that "there will be no old timers if there ain't any new comers coming in" Yeah, you have more posts than I do, you win, whatever!
