Can someone from the previous group buy confirm:
1) No errors
2) No color change/fading after use
3) Warm white is indeed really white and not purple at all?
Thanks!

sorry for dumb question.

is everyone getting WARM WHITE to match their OEM hid?
so, if I've changed OEM hid bulb to 6000k, I should get COOL WHITE. right?

Damn, you're still waiting? I hope they're just somewhere in customs or something. I thought everyone already got them. I know there are some in canada that have already reported receiving theirs.

yeah, it could be up to 10 business days, not including customs delay. So I guess we're not in panic time yet.

Off topic, do they make CanBus LED for front signal light bulb 3457 that produce orange color? We will have clean signal light.

Are these simple installs that just swap with current bulbs? Been reading alot around forums and gathered that changing them will result in errors. So for the eyelids will I need something else other than just bulbs? For the plates will it still require a resistor?

Where have you read anywhere about these LEDs that have ever stated they throw errors from anyone? It's already been stated over and over again that they do NOT throw errors and are simple plug and play. Read the first post. Sorry if I'm sounding mean or anything, but posts like this mislead others to thinking that they throw errors or need extra resistors to work.
