Really hate doing this, but comes down to I think most of you already got your lights so orders have been slowing down dramatically. Just barely broke even last month and made a rule for myself that if I get 2 consecutive months where I'm in the red, I'll close down shop as really just doing this to help the community instead of as a fulltime job. I'd really be making more just working overtime at my current company

No, yours already shipped out like I said.
What I said was more public musing on how much longer I'll sell these LEDs or at least be a sponsor here on MBWorld. Spending hundreds per month just to sponsor here.

Do you have a website where people can submit paypal orders (besides ebay)? I think you would benefit from having a home-base where people can see your products outside of being a member of this forum.

That was one of the things I was considering as costs of advertising here is what's really killer lol.

Responded to your PM
I think I stated that I ship out next business day when order is placed. Your order was placed on the 7th, so order was shipped out on the 8th However, as also stated prior experience with shipping to Canada is your customs can sometimes take rediculously long amount of time to process the package. I've had some customers get theirs in a week, while the longest I've seen has been 3 weeks. That aspect is totally out of my control.

I LOVE the look of the LEDs, but one may have already burnt out. Mike, you mentioned something about not pushing the LEDs in too far? I haven't had the chance to look, maybe the one that isn't working is loose?
Any news on the turn signal bulbs? That will be sure to boost up the business

Either way, shoot me a PM and I'll send replacements
As for turn signals. My manufacturer has come up with a new front turn signal design. They're currently undergoing clean room longevity testing and will shoot me a test set when they finish their rounds of testing for me to do real world testing.

Yup. Shipped out.
I know especially for those in the first batch, we didn't know about some of the potential install issue. I sent an email out to all in the first GB to double check this, but yeah, just double check to see if any components separated. Usually if you see the second resistor separate, it's due to over insertion. Why the second resistor and not the first? Cause over inserting the LED to the point where the voltage plate covers over the first resistor not only heats up the unit, but also holds the first resistor in place, thus only second one appears to have moved and separated.
Either way, shoot me a PM and I'll shoot you a replacement, just pay extra attention to your install.

Hey Mike, do your LEDs fit in the little footwell bulb sockets? I'm looking to change those. But I hear of flickering issues since they're normally so dim. But if they do, please chime in. I'd be down to order a pair of blue LEDs then.

1 set for sidemarker
1 set for license plate
1 set for interior footwell
1 set for trunk light (leaves you one LED as backup)
Total 6 sets. Free shipping.
Althought the correctly 194 bulb, unfortunately these LEDs will be too big for your dome lights. Also note that there is a single festoon bulb in your rear dome light
dude im telling u, u can make a killing on ebay selling these.... the product is too good to toally abandon... the forum is limited with its ridic high overhead, but setup a solid listing on ebay and get a paypal debit card and you will have all your meals covered for free every month at least just from ebay sells...
