These lights are junk. Read all 4 pages, and see all the issues with the lights. Why do people keep buying such a terrible product? Yea it looks cool, but the defective product out weighs that in my mind. I don't want to spend $400 bucks to have a constent problem on my car.

For $400.00 I should not have to do any thing but do the install. They could say the warranty is no good by me resealing the lights.

Sorry, just got back to the thread. Got a new job. Anyway, there are resistors noted in the addendum that must be installed for the unit to work properly. I did not do it first and got crazy results. Then found the addendum and added the little metal boxes and their connections into the mix, wonderful results.

If I may ask, who was the company that had the lights on sale? Obviously it wasn't Technostalgia the company that makes them. I know I saw a recent post by Apex saying they had them in stock "No line no wait" essentially and I know there was yet another vendor on another forum that had them in a group buy from inception of their availability. When the lights first came out there was a wait list from a group buy and I skip shift this and went directly to Technostalgia and got mine before the 'Group Buy' people did. Technostalgia called me when they were ready, took my payment and I had lights within 4 days. The transaction was fast and complete and I've had nothing but good things to say about Technostalgia and Todd.
![]() Todd of Technostalgia and I shoot emails back and forth since the company used to be located here in Indiana before they relocated to their current facility and he knows I'm state law enforcement and has asked me some legal questions about lights since I have a perspective on DOT and NHTSA. Reading partially though this thread its my understanding someone did a 'Holiday Sale' without having inventory or even seeing if they could in fact meet the demand with their supply. Piss poor planning on their part does not constitute an emergency on Techno's part. That would be like me planning a dinner at Shula's, jazz club afterward before checking with my girl to see if she's even availabe. ![]() The water ![]() ![]() All this said, I hope that Technostalgia is not carrying the brunt of this debate on not having supply available. They also provide a very professional package that I kept to place my original tail lights in just in case I sell them. The color directions they give are thourough and huge for my then 52yr old eyes three years ago. ![]() I have no dog in the fight here but just believe fair is fair. Hold those accountable, accountabe and the others blameless.

The Company is... Year One . They have been around a very long time and a major supplier of restoration parts . With that being said They still Dropped the ball on this Huge Sale .

I hope everyone gets the lights if this in fact what you want. I would not let anything or anyone hold me back on something I want. I've gone many directions and variations to get what I want, short of selling my soul to the devil. I suggest going direct to the maker and avoid the middleman as I did.
