Not sure that I could afford them anyway, but as I drive rural state highways the majority of the time, I would be very interested in these lights. I hate, hate, hate those stupid frog-eye monstrosities others are putting out and like the idea of a lower opening system that provides high quality illumination and keeps the integrity of the original pop-ups.

Roughly, what does this system cost?

Hey Michael, Thanks for keeping track; I'd forgotten that I was an early adopter. I just remember that I was drooling over these lights, following the beta test and pressing the order button the first moment it was available.

Still worth waiting for!

The shroudless sets will be available next week. We're delaying it just a bit to keep the wait time down. Pricing will be posted once we have them ready to sell.

Unlike previous offerings of these lights, there will not be a long wait this time. 2-3 days processing time (if that) will be all


Once previous orders of shrouds are taken care of (and inventory increases) we'll offer shrouds to those that purchase starting next week. From there we hope inventory increases to where we can offer complete headlight kits with shrouds.

Can't wait to get them. My ZO6 in Florida will be ready in April after a four year build. Has the lights and now will be complete.

My Maine corvette should be coming out of storage in April so now that one will be complete.

Great job! Know it took a long time but this has to be the best mod anyone could do. Have been able to drive and see at night - now I can see and look good. Thanks

"...early folks..." You understate how important your "early" involvement was bradda T. You and the 5 others who took a leap of faith...


I'll be in touch pretty quickly, if things go smoothly with UPS this weekend.

You and Doug are overall #2 and #3, respectively.

Hi Lou!
To answer your first question, just ask as you have here.
You sir are #20
In fact I encourage everyone that wants to get an idea ahead of time and is subscribed here, to ask. Whether here, pm, visitor message, email, tec... Be great to see some more pictures of everyone's set up before this thread closes too.
The other two are the big questions and honestly we're still working on finalizing those details.

I'll tell you Lou, I'm very happy to be this far and at the same time very apprehensive to give in to that feeling considering the road getting to this point.
I will say to you that I see an end to your wait. I will also say thank you. Thank you for persistently staying engaged in this thread. The shrouds and getting them finished IS the reason this thread remains open and your a big reason it has remained active and updated to the extent it has. Not easy being that guy sometimes, you've earned my thanks and respect for that.

Whoa!! I'm speechless! How the heck you been bradda Tim? Well, I hope? Thanks for poking your head in and checking on this marathon!

I hope you're not referring to anything specific, and you're right! It will feel somewhat bittersweet like divorce when the last sets go out and JW turns the lights off on this thread.
