New order sent Mike, I had my side markers burn out. $18/set + $3 for shipping correct? Also, I recently bought your tail light kit and I am getting a msg on my dash saying there is a an issue with my left rear marker. Is that my license plate light or is it one of the bulbs that were in your kit?

As for the left rear marker, that I believe is your rear sidemarker within the tail light assembly which is a single 194 Wedge bulbs. Pull it out and take a look, shoot pictures to me at aznoptics@gmail.com so I can assess.

We have a few here. We're at just over the 1 month mark of live testing, but would really like to get at least 2 months before full release. Shoot me an email at aznoptics@gmail.com and we can work something out if you wish to try out the V3s.

Take a picture of both sides of the bulb and email to us at aznoptics@gmail.com so we can assess the root cause of the failure. Also include your username, name, and address so we have a record.

I've had these for awhile now and I've noticed something weird. The top LED on the driver's side eyebrow, stays on for about 5-10 mins AFTER the car has been turned off. Just that one. Any explanations for that?

Current leak potentially at the socket as car shuts down? You can pull out the LED and send pics to me as well so I can check if it's an LED issue as well.

Ok I have a couple of questions Mike... Since I'm not experienced with LEDs...
First one is The side markers these will work for and the eyebrows and fog lights?
2nd What is the updated cost for these sets...
3rd i'm thinking of getting 8000k's as a saw a picture with 8000k and they really complemented the bi-xenons without looking as just one unit....
4th On avg how long will the shipping take
Regards,
Lucas

2. We can give you a package price depending on how many you order. Just PM me what you want and your paypal email address and we can send you an invoice.
3. Bi-xenons are actually 4300K, so you'd want our 5000K if you want to match. Some do prefer the 8000K with OEM bi-xenons because it offers a bit of contrast so you can make out the eyebrow section.
4. We ship via USPS First Class Parcel which is 2-4 business days.

As our Facebook subscribers already know, we've cut over our 194 Wedge LEDs to our new V3 design.
We're constantly exploring new technologies and techniques to present the best possible product out there for you. This new design utilizes a "box" top design will utilize a larger CREE diode and output slightly more lumen (brighter) and give better 360 degree lighting output. The big thing is we've introduced a new high temp resistant non-conductive gel substrate to the resistor component that has a much higher melting point than solder. This will help keep components in place during all but the largest of current surges which results in heat spikes. This is a problem with all aftermarket LEDs where these heat spikes reach the melting point of the solder which causes the resistors to "float" freely and allow gravity and engine/car vibration to cause component shifting. With this gel, everything is held in place until the current surge passes and the solder re-solidifies with everything held in place.
These have already undergone months of live testing from our volunteers and have met with success.
I'll get pictures posted later this week of the updated design.

Sorry, somehow I didn't get notification of your message. Yes, we do have reverse lights for 2012 tail lights. It's the same 1156 bayonet bulb and are $30/set.
