Well, this mod and a rear bumper I'm waiting on are high on my "do it to the ride" list.

Yeah... Even with my newly installed HIR lights, I'm ready to lay down the cash for this mod. I'm not sure when it's going to happen though, so that money is also my buffer in case any emergency comes up (like my girlfriend needing a vacation. )

A real shame, because I think it's a very cool setup.
Maybe they will suprise us with a finished product soon. *crosses fingers*

Or at least hand it off to someone who will see it through, like Radioflyer

I had the light s from radiofllyer and i took them out for JWM lights. I think they are better and they are worth the wait. These lights are a hobby for mtndv8 and i'm sure he has other things going on.

The lights are going to happen. I'll contact Michael to see where he is at. I think he just moved.

How can something that doesn't exist be better than something that does? I hate to sound critical but this project has been on the back burner for almost a year. Isn't it time to either "get 'r done", pass the project on to someone that has the time/desire to finish it or toss in the towel?

I have purchased several items from JW and have been very happy with my purchases so I hope he can pull a rabbit out of his hat and get this project off the bench and to market. Time will tell but I get the feeling everyone who wants these lights feels like it is late in the fourth quartet and the clock is starting to run out.

We have several in this thread with test sets.

The project has been going for 3 yrs now. We just won't send it out until it's 100% ready.

I've set a lot of customers up with ACAs that do not want to wait. We understand

I seriously hope that these are available to the rest of us eventually. I've been anxiously waiting since the first thread.
I work nights and drive about 80% of the time depending on the stock lights

Not a finished product so maybe a prototype??? Like I said earlier I enjoy everything that I have purchased from JW and his customer service has been top notch but it is time to get this project moving again or tell everyone that it isn't going to happen. If designing the shrouds are only a hobby for mtndv8 and he doesn't have time to complete the design maybe it is time for him to hand over what he has accomplished so far to someone that can finish the process. I for one have been holding off installing another aftermarket lighting system because I would rather have this one but like others I am loosing faith that the shrouds will be ready anytime in the near future.

JW can you at least give us a best guess honest estimate on when you think your lights will be ready?

That's the exact reason i got them. Driving the back roads to work at 0 dark 30 was dangerous to say the least with the stock lamps. These lights flat out work!
