Greeting everyone. Doing just a quick update on the lens production.
I have received lens samples from the supplier and we are working out a few final details. Some changes were made in the design to produce a near perfect lens unlike the iffy quality I was dealing with with the factory lens. A higher grade of poly-carbonate and UV protection.
We are on track to receive the first order by the end of December. While pricing hasn't been establish it will be in line with what the OEM pricing was.
I will be doing a major update in several forums as well as eBay and my website as soon as I know shipping is in progress. You can help spread the word as you see threads asking about the lens. I definitely appreciate it.

Sweet!! I just bought my 3rd C6 and the lenses need replaced. Im pretty sure I bought my lenses from you a couple years ago for my 1st C6. I was searching all over trying to figure out where I bought them from, then found this thread. New lenses are on my winter plans when I pull it apart for the cam install and other misc stuff. Cant wait for updates.

I posted all over the forums starting last October, 2015, that GM rescinded my agreement with them concerning the lens and wouldn't make them available to anyone and wouldn't offer them themselves. My inventory ran out last June and I didn't want to say anything concerning what I was doing until I had them ready. The person starting the Kickstarter campaign caused me to to spill the beans a little earlier than planned.
I'll be posting up a few pics tomorrow so everyone can see these are for real.

Here's a teaser pic of one of the samples I received seeking approval for production. I wanted everyone to know that this real. The lens is about 98%. The optical quality is very good (as good as any factory lens ever was) but I am going to see if they can bring it to perfect.
Keep posting and look for any updates mostly here or unless I direct to a new thread. Thanks for all the good words and support.
I'll get better shots as well.

Will it be very visible once installed?
Can't blame the guy for putting it on there..

Will you be able to order them without the www.rlsebring.com on them? - don't think many will like that
