Default * * * * C5 MODIFIED "HALO" TAIL LIGHTS * * * * Group Purchase Round # 2

Hi Guys,

Fresh thread for ROUND 2 of the Modified C5 "Halo" Tail Lights Group Purchase...
We are running it the same way however shipping prices have gone up a bit on Jon's end (KOLDNRG) who performs the modifications.

This is also known as the "Radioflyer" Mod who will perform this modification as well for those that already have the Halo Tail Lights

STOCK C5 "HALO" TAIL LIGHTS: $279 Shipped to Jon
MODIFICATION FEE: $60 Shipped to you...
Total For Both: $339.00

For our brothers to the North (Canada) add $20 for international shipping.

I also recommend you pick up a LED Relay Flasher Bypass from Richard @ Corvette Enhancements to totally protect against the possibility of a hyper-flash scenario. About $49 I believe...

Link to First Round post 127

Here is the Round 2 List:

Randolph: Paid (Lights & Mod Fee)
Dan R: Payment Info Received (Lights & Mod Fee)
Larry W: Paid (Lights & Mod Fee)
George H: Will call Saturday

Will: Calling me
Ivan: Left you a message...

I don't think I am missing anyone, if so, please post and I will adjust.

It is not too late to get involved in Round 2, sets will be shipped to Jon on either Monday or Tuesday.

PM me your phone # to order.

I will update this thread regularly....

Have a great weekend !!!

Brian

If I order just the tail lights for $279 do they ship immediately? Also, what shipping do you use for Canada orders with the +$20 fee? UPS robs us on brokerage fees!

The modified package gets the lower price because I ship in bulk to Jon... Normal setup is 289 plus shipping. PM me your phone number and shipping address and I will see what stock LED halo's would be shipped to your door.

Brian

As far as customs goes, I can clue you in via PM.

What does the mod do? Hyperflash? Sorry but there are a million threads on the issue and I honestly don't want to sift through all of them.

No No, hyperflash is a small problem solved by a relay if needed and usually not... This mod makes the Halo Ring the only thing lit when not on the brake or turn signals/hazard... $339 Shipped to you door after modification.

See the link in the first post.

Probably the last from Round 1 to get mine installed.

Very happy with these lights and the modification. They look great.

Just a quick update for everyone, Someone broke into my garage, stole a bunch of tools "including my soldering iron" but thankfully all the tail lights were inside the house locked up. Been dealing with that mess and still trying to get these lights modified for everyone, been getting about 1-2 sets done a night after work depending on when I get off. I also managed to grab onto a hot soldering gun yesterday and burned/blistered the entire palm of my right hand "thought it was off, found out real quick that it wasn't". I just wanted to let everyone know that I plan on having all of round 3 shipped out by friday, Once I get the mailing list from Brian I have 4 sets ready to ship today. Just wanted to let everyone know what is going on incase I run into a delay. If you have any questions shoot me an email at koldnrg@gmail.com and I will get right back to you, I check my mail about 10 times a day.

Jon,

Sorry to hear about your hand AND your break in. That all sucks. Glad it wasn't anything worse though... I am on the list for the third round. I was LAST to get in.. I can't speak for everyone but I would rather you delay a bit than push to get my lights out. I can imagine you are a bit stressed and would prefer you to not feel you have folks wanting you to just hurry up with their lights bro.

take care and when you get them out you get them out!
