So these are going to make my rears look really old and tired...

 

When shall we start the list for you to do the rears as well?  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  :huh:

 

I want to get the fronts out to everyone before I commit to anything here. As you can see from the group buy section i've already started producing the lenses which doesn't take much of my time. Once these are in hand I have a few ideas...

Tom, I've emailed you a few times already, regarding the problem I have with my headlights for my Speedy ( LHD ) to get them to passed the Belgium MOT. 

 

So YES, i'm very interested in buying a pair of those LHD aligned headlights.

 

Of course if they are better than the originals ( with LED etc ) that's a plus.

 

Thanks,

Werner

Just replied to you Werner, unfortunately your last email was sent while I was in Japan on business for two weeks and had limited access to email, hence the delay in replying.

Outstanding actions:

 

- receive deliver of fresh PU primer to adhere lenses

- identify suitable boxes to package

 

Also need to test if a tether between the outer casing and inner casing would be suitable in the event of a crash

Hi Tom

The headlights are so beautiful that I would want to change from black to carbon.

Still possible or am I too late?

Cheers

Harry

Thanks!
