Any pics of the Plasma in action? Preferably with the camera setting adjusted to see actual light output and against objects?

Unfortunately no. We had 2 initial buyers for our test units who were supposed to send us pictures, after install, but only reported everything worked great. They never sent me pics.

Yes that would be nice. I still hesitate for my fog lights. The price is interesting compared to the HID's but at the same time I wouldn't mind seeing the road better, especially knowing that HID's on the fog application won't blind others. It's a dilema.

We're still looking for volunteer to send us pictures of their application with these new bulbs, but after being burned twice already, will restructure out deal where the volunteer purchases at full price and discount would be given after pictures are delivered instead of applying discount up front.

Do I have any warranty left? 3 of the 4 on my eyebrow led's are flickering after about 3-4 minutes of them being on. I look like a police vehicle. I can try the new ones too if they look as good and will last. Changing these is a pain in the rear.

You're technically out of warranty, but just out, so I'll take care of you. Send me an email at aznoptics@gmail.com

Hey everybody,

I just wanted to share that I just installed AZNOptics interior LED and they really made a difference. If you want your w204 to stand, I highly recommend getting a set for your car, it was a inexpensive mod that really shows.

Thank again AZNOptics.

Do the LED lights dim when you close the doors? (or do they just turn off)


And do they stay «on» at the feet panels while you drive just like the OEM bulbs?


Thx

The lights do dim when I close the doors. I didn't install the foot panel, I just did all the ones the the headliner.

AZN, I've noticed 2 of my eye brows are flickering. I read somewhere this can be an installation issue, but also maybe a bad bulb? Any trick to ensure I have them installed correctly? The others seem to working just fine

Over insertion could cause flickering if the clip goes over the gel and not make good contact to the voltage plate. Or could just be a faulty diode. Try pulling out the bulb and reseating them. If that doesn't resolve, shoot me pics of both sides of the unit at aznoptics@gmail.com so we can assess and warranty.

We've been working with a new manufacturing plant in South Korea on a new design based off COB technology. We pulled some of lessons learned as we continually improve including taking best parts of our V4 technology paired with single PCB to reduce solder joints. We're in initial testing and have already deployed on a few vehicles.

I'm looking for a w204 volunteer who has purchased from us in the past. We have a set that we would provide for free for eyebrow use and would like to get feedback and bi-weekly reports on performance. Please PM me if interested.

hey mike, I was checking out your store for some replacements and couldn't find what I was looking for. Did you discontinue the h7 hid kit line? I purchased two sets from you when you started up one a 5000k and one 8000k. I have had the 5000ks installed since then and about 2 months ago 1 bulb burnt out so I replaced them with the 8000k set. The color of the 8000k is by far my favorite and was loving it until recently when a bulb went out. I'm not sure why it stopped working it doesn't seem to be burnt out and the ballast seems good as I tried switching sides. Anyway I'm sorry for the long story but I'm hoping you can point me to a solution if there's any other 8000k kits or if they are just not in stock at the moment. thank you.

We discontinued our personal line of HIDs due to constant issues with customs. We've become distributors for high end Morimoto units though. Their 6000K runs close to our 8000K color.

@AZN. I have a pair of faulty LEDs. 1 is in an eyebrow and I can't get it to stop flickering regardless of position and the 2nd is currently in my trunk for the license plate. The 2nd LED is missing the top "led" looks like it came off at some point. I should still be in warranty can I get another pair? Paypal used was rakestraw1982@gmail.com

Shoot us an email (aznoptics@gmail.com) to process a claim. I mentioned in the other thread, all V3s will be extended to 2 year warranty because of issues with our old manufacturer and their QA process allowed some faulty Toyoda Gosei SMDs through.

@AZN

Hey man what's the chance I can swap my 4-5 sets of the old versions for 3 sets of the new V5s? I'm so tired of plugging and unplugging due to blinking etc. We replaced em once and they work well for a period of time but just don't hold up. If the new V5's are that much better my sanity would be saved!
