Shoot, sorry Michael, I thought I emailed you I think the big mold is almost done, once that one gets finished we can start getting these out pretty quickly.

Yes, I was there, my 22nd year in a row!
I did have the lights up for a while, and I did show them to several attendees. Sorry I missed you. Everyone I showed the Sun Guns to thought they were pretty cool, which they certainly are.

Carlisle's weather behaved itself this year, but I got the feeling that attendance was down a bit from previous years. Still, the greatest Vette shindig in the world!

Checking in to see if there are updates on when we might be able to order shrouds.

Thanks Lou, Should be soon. I'm waiting to hear if the production molds are complete yet. My understanding is that there will be a set of five production molds created in order to produce the quantities we need faster and reduce some of the labor.

Once I'm certain, I'll get with JW and we'll set up something for everyone to order them. Thanks...

I think this is the last touch I need on my heavily modified vert. I know this thread goes way back, but are the projectors still available? I'd love to drive up to OKC and have you help me install!

JW used to have a modification web site that had full instructions to do the install... Lots of folks asking questions about particular things during installation and Michael would answer all questions as well as JW. I think I have the pdf file saved for the install instructions.

I had never done more than putting vinyl stripes and l.e.d.'s on my car till this install and it went together in a few hours. Double checking from lack of experience is what ate up so much time for me.

Thanks T. I hadn't heard yet what happened to that site. It was a lot of good info...

Got word yesterday the final production shroud molds are done and production starts the beginning of next week!

Unfortunately not enough demand to keep it up.

Good to hear on the shrouds. Lights will be available soon it seems. Just in time for winter mods.
