Seems like those were issues on earlier batches a few months back. I hope these were resolved. OT said their batches are brand new. But with these coming from Taiwan and all who knows... it should be interesting to see the longevity on these things. So far they look and work great.

Got my lights today. Orange Tuning came through very fast. Shipped out from Germany last Friday , in my hands this afternoon.

Installation was pretty straight forward but disconnecting the old tail lights required some patience. Disconnecting the socket was hard for me, hell maybe i'm weak. Anyhow once they were out easy to put in. 20 minutes later, got beautiful oem looking led tails. Big props to this forum for discovering Orange Tuning and imo, the best looking tails out there at the best price!

There is a plastic pin you have to pull on for the socket to disconnect... otherwise it can be very hard to wrestle through it.

No Wonder haha, my hands are hurting right now from messing with that. FYI, I just got an email from Frank this morning. He has found a source to get us the DRL LEDs for the front lights. Not cheap though, I think it came out to $199EURO for each side, plus $349 EURO for the wiring harness.

How different will they be from THESE LED's from SpeedArt? http://www.gmpperformance.com/index....ail&PID=205678

Looks to be about the same price when you factor in the exchange rate of the US$ and Euro....

Pulled the trigger!

I made contact with Frank on Friday and sent a few messages back and forth over the weekend. I have to say Franks customer service, timely responses, and fellow 6speeders experiences to date have made ordering these lights an easier desicion. The price helped to .
I pulled the trigger late Monday night through Paypal and by the time I woke up and checked my email Tuesday morning the lights had been shipped! Great service in my books!

Edlinyo - I see you posted pics of the DRL's but I don't see any pics of the front of them, can you post them if you have them.

Also, I have sent an email to Frank this morning asking for a picture of the fronts as well as about maybe setting up a group buy for the DRL's if he can get the price down from the 747,00 EURO ......
