It is a slight adjustment and may not be necessary for all, but I noticed they are aimed a little high without that ability to pull them in from the bottom a bit. One nut on the inside of the insert, the other on the outside allowing you to adjust the angle. The lighting is superb. The housings are top notch engineering and the cutoff it just perfect. They are really a nice add and have a great look. GO FOR IT!!! And again, the promise of pictures tonight....

Thanks for the info and can't wait for the pictures.

Anyone else interested?

Looks nice, but it doesn't look like I would be able to transfer over my halos into those very easily the way I did with my current ones

You are correct, there is really no room inside the housing for halo rings, nor would you want to break these open. The housings are of very high quality.

Very nice shots and thanks for the pictures!

I spoke with TRS and they mentioned that there's a need for 25 people in the group buy to get 20% off. That would bring the total to $160 with a 10-year warranty.

So far, as of 05/24/2016, the interest is as follows here at Camaro5:
  • CamALot
  • Eddiefuzz - maybe?
  • foo.fighter
  • Arogg
And over at G8Board:
  • orkrule1
  • s/c'd cav
  • 6 litre
  • GXP25
  • MGMGXP

That's 9 people total. 16 more to go.

Unfortunately, the guy that I spoke with mentioned that that was the deal. Unless we can find a vendor out there that can source these and get us 15% off.

UPDATE: I found another vendor who is willing to sell these for $155 shipped with a minimum of 10 people. We're currently at 13 so as far as I'm concerned we're good to go. The slight caveat is that everyone would need to make sure their orders are in and paid for before we could get them at said price.

  • GXP25
  • MGMGXP
  • di11avou
  • JessMan
  • CamaroSS27
At GM-Trucks:
  • BIGDOGx

That's 13 people total. New minimum goal of 10 reached.

Anyone else?

Seriously? Lets do it. Are you sure this new vendor has the exact model we need for our Camaro's? I have a 2013 Camaro 2SS/RS. How do we process this?

I'm in for these. I was going to purchase them at regular price until I saw this thread. I'm curious who the other vendor is.

All of the round GM model LED housings that Morimoto makes (Chevrolet, GMC, Pontiac) are the same except for the following [square] housings that are tailored for the trucks without the round fog light assembly.

These won't work on an RS with DRL, the DRL's are a different bulb so the connector won't fit.
