To all:
We are starting this new thread as an update, given that the other threads have gotten so long - it should make for an easier read. It is also a place to record customer sign-ups :clap:
There has been discussion in the forum about two types of projector kits that people would like to see - one being an opaque, paintable ABS housing that carries the projectors (which we are dealing with here) and the second being projectors behind clear acrylic (which we cannot unfortunately produce).
We're moving, by the way, on lights for the CURRENT body style Neon / SRT. The prior generation is very close but uses different mounting brackets... modification may be possible but we're not sure just yet.
Anyway - for those of you who have been following the issue, here's the scoop: to go any further we must make a significant financial committment to make the projectors happen (we must commit to 300 units).
We'd like to ask for 40 people as a minimum to commit to orders with a modest deposit of 40 bucks. The deposit will be non-refundable, unless of course something unforseen were to happen that would stop ultimate production.
If we have 50 or more committed deposits, we will offer the 40 bucks back in a discount off the final retail. We realize that there is a large signup on another forum, but that forum shows two kinds of projectors... and we're just talking about the one style (concept photos and more info below)
Here's the procedure if you want in:
1.) Copy this as a subject line: NEON PROJECTOR DEPOSIT
2.) Send an email to us at [email protected]
3.) Include your name, billing address, shipping address if different, and PHONE NUMBER.
4.) We will contact you for payment information for your deposit. If you wish to use PayPal, you may PayPal the 40.00 to us at [email protected], but please still email us above.
5.) You will be placed on the list, and will receive your lights in the order we received your emails when they ship.
6.) (Optional) come back here and post "I'M IN" for fun
TIMELINE:
After we have 40 solid signups with deposits, we will run cards for the 40.00 deposit payment and our partners in Europe will get us a prototype for fitment (4 weeks schedule). As soon as we receive prototypes we will post photos separate and on a vehicle. The production lights will be ready in 6 to 7 weeks following the prototype. We will take complete payment for the light orders sometime in that period (this payment WILL be refundable however).
COST:
The retail for the lights will be between $560.00 and $590.00. Anyone in the initial purchase will receive $40.00 off retail as above (provided we have 50 minimum as above). Shipping on these is typically 14 - 17 bucks in the lower 48 states.
ABOUT PROJECTORS: The projector lights come with halogen bulbs, and not HID (some folks get confused on the difference between projectors and HIDs). An HID kit would go nicely in them however...
OTHER DETAIL:
1.) The light assemblies are DOT approved;
2.) These are NOT the cheap projectors available for the first gen. Neon... these are a high quality ABS housing that looks great even unpainted. The mounting points are strong and we have three years' experience selling these kits for other cars.
3.) Each projector assembly can be independently aimed
4.) We offer clear protective lens tape kits for these for other cars and will do the same for these
5.) We will carry a stock of spare / replacement parts in the US for them
6.) This is not just an appearance mod - the lights do improve foul weather vision as they have a solid cutoff line on low beam, and the highs are stronger than stock.
