    I’m about to go on a 13 hour road trip all through the night driving. I’ll report back on how they performed for a lengthy trip if there’s any issues.

    Let me check pricing with TRS and see what kind of discount it would be for the group buy. But I would assume it will be under $1000. Also, looks like shipment is expected to arrive mid to late October.

    I ordered a pair today just to see what the shipping wait would be. Says Nov. 14th expected ship date.

    Any dates you see post are estimates. So I'd say they'll be at TRS by November judging by the deliveries of other xb headlights. Though it really depends, the shipment could actually arrive at TRS in October. I'd say to anyone who purchased or planning to purchase, just have patience

    Lol if you order before group buy might mess it up for a group buy and you’d still have to wait.

    Update for everyone. Took 16 total hours of driving and 9 hours of it the lights on straight. No issues. No problems with high beams at all. Saw all kinds of coyotes with the lights. Worked as it should. Had to flash the wonderful people that like to run high beams full time and it made them turn off their high beams so it’s beight enough to flash with a wide 50-100’ gap between instertate roads.

    @BlueRibbon4x4 had been turning out some very very nice retros lately. He's looking to get some paying customers. His work seems to be top notch from what he has posted.

    Yup he did some red ones for a friend of his and did his own blue, retro'd some LED taillights too. His work looks really good, dependability is unknown at this point

    The lights are currently in a shipping container headed this way...
    Happen to know where I can find any pics of these taillights? Willing to get a set done depending on how they look

    I have the halogens so even though the factory led high beams may be brighter once my xbs come in I’ll still be way ahead of the ones I have now. Super excited

    Well, something I found interesting was that HR lowered the lux out reading on the OEM LEDs low beams for that new video, where as in the old one the measurement was higher :confused:

    I have the OEM LED's on my 2018 and I LOVE the high beams and really surprised the these are only 1470. Now the price for my used LED lights with 2650 lux at high beams just went up :hattip:

    Ok from what I gathered from headlight revolution videos here’s the numbers
    Old video factory halogen 460 515
    Old video with factory led 1100 2400
    New video factory halogen 410 780
    New video factory led 960 2650
    Morimoto 1170 1470
    I’m not sure why the numbers have changed on the videos for the factory led anyone know?
