Since we're being frank, I'm not crazy about the tiny projectors and half-open popups you're developing.
The scale of the tiny projector lamps looks really strange on the C5 and definitely more "after market" as opposed to something that could have conceivably been OEM.
I don't much care for the "professional" versus "garage built" comments I've seen you repeat in other threads, because you're never specific as to what you're referring to AND because a lot of cool things have come out of the imagination of guys working out of their garages. You might also keep in mind the whole "people in glass houses" thing, since all of this is highly subjective anyway and some may consider your kit to look more "garage built" in appearance than some of the other stuff I've seen marketed.
If you want to offer some real world data or compelling arguments that enhances your marketing efforts and demonstrates why yours is the better platform, then terrific, but just poo-pooing what others are doing doesn't exactly elevate your case.

The second version was the "garage built" using the same projectors but the frame was a flat sheet of aluminum and the shroud was a flat piece with holes cut in it (not contoured) The cost of this kit was significantly less, but it lacked the finish of the more expensive kit.

I don't know what "garage built" look you are referring to, but it cannot be the Light Cannons.

I have no problem with people working in the garage. I do it myself. When it comes to a lighting housing I have standards set for it. I want people to be able to show off the housing in the day. I want it to look like a professional big company designed it even though I'm nothing big like that.
