Good thing to do. We can get more exposure and get the price down if interested (PM if so).
PM incoming! :cool:

Be interested if you could get them with RCZ,
Yep, if everything goes well with these ones I think phase 2 could well be the RCZ logo. Watch this space!

Ha ha - No, they're not going to be any cheaper unless we start buying them in the hundreds so you're OK. But that's by the by - currently you will be 1 of only 10 people in the world with these so that's pretty unique!

Regarding payment, some have paid already and a couple of you have not yet. I don't mind if you want to wait until I have them or even until you have seen pics of them in action but those people who have already sent payment will be receiving theirs straight away after I receive them.

FYI, I spoke to the guys making these again a couple of days ago to check on progress. I figured they wouldn't celebrate Easter in China so there wouldn't have been any public holidays because of that and I was right. BUT it was 'Tomb Sweeping Day' and the 'Festival of Qingming' so, yes, they had 2 days off too! D'oh! :lol:

Ladies and Gentlemen, the filters arrived today and I think you'll agree that (even with my terrible photography skillz) they look AWESOME!!! :dance:


If you have already sent payment for a set of these filters - thank you - they will be in the post to you via Recorded Delivery first thing on Monday morning. :thumbup:

If you have reserved a set but haven't sent payment yet please PM me. There are a couple of sets left too if anyone else wants them - again, PM me if so please.

So, what do these filters look like and how do I fit them I hear you ask?

Well they look like this:


FITTING

So take your projector lights that you purchased from eBay previously and remove the 2 small screws to expose the projector part. Be very careful so that you do not break the red or black wires whilst the light is like this as they are quite delicate and will require soldering back on if you do (I know this because it happened to me! :eek: ):


Remove the filter that is already there by pushing or pulling it out (yours may look slightly different then this one):


And replace with the new one. You may find that it is a very tight fit and/or may not fit all the way inside but that's OK, it will still work - just push it in as far as it will go, like so:


Then simply reassemble and replace it with the ones already in your car doors and you're good to go!! :beer:

There is one more important point but I have reached the maximum number of pictures allowed in a single post so I will continue below...

And that important point was this:

Much like a camera these projector lights flip the image 180 degrees before displaying it on the ground so you need to take this into account when inserting the new filters.

Just make sure yours match the orientation shown below and you will be OK. Trust me on this - it was trial and error figuring this out but this is correct even though it looks wrong! lol :crazy:


So the things to remember are inserting the filter the correct way (as above) and not breaking those wires, OK!

On a personal note, I couldn't be happier with how these have turned out and I'm sure these will make me smile every time I open my door at night for a long while to come. :thumbup:

Just a quick message for everyone who has purchased a set of filters - they have been posted out to you via Recorded Delivery today so should be with you all tomorrow. :thumbup:

If you want to post pics of them in action on here that would be cool (but don't feel like you have to).

johnbmaximus - I don't seem to have your address details so I will hold on to yours until I hear from you.

P. S. There are just 2 sets left now - if anyone wants them, PM me!

Some time thoughts are better left to oneself, if we all wanted the same the world would be one boring place.

Received my recorded packet will pick up from PO tomorrow 2retro :thumbup:

Glad to hear the filters are arriving with you all safely. Here are a couple of better pics of them in action (looks even better in person though as you will soon see for yourselves):

Just fitted mine - looks great.

Can I really be longing for this dark winter nights to return, just so I can enjoy them even more?!
