I skimmed through this post.... Wow 22 pages.

I'm a habitual Troll, but these are definitely worth putting money into.

I sent my PayPal ca$h today.

People... you really need to get on board!! What more do you want?? This is proven tech from a proven company. Get with it.

 

"WHOO HOO" another deposit made.....how many more do we need??? I lost count a long time ago.

 

please make some time to post the list that u said u were going to post, of people who paid.....you got me flinging a dead duck trying to figure out if we are close to the count or not

 

bump

 

Ruthless, you people are

We didn't get pictures - this is actually strangely good news.

We decided to proceed with the NRE part of the product (aka Non-Recurring Expense) which means that we are designing the clips.

I want to let you know that there is ONLY one way to make it work, and it's not for the faint of heart. Due to the nature of the headlight design, it will be necessary to drill 1mil width holes on your headlights' trim rings. The clips will have holes pre-molded into them, and there will be a little "plug" that goes into the holes in the rings and slots into the trim ring.

This, so far, is the only way to guarantee that the rings are going to stay in place regardless of the road conditions.

Here's the list as requested:
G Corra
M Zaiderman
K Woodruf
O Duyan
J Hsai
W Riley
J Hauser
L Cash
F Cacucciolo
S Abraham
T Meadows
N Desai
D Alvarado
E Ahn
J Maddocks
C Sandoval
S Cho
D Euashachai
B Davis
------------------
I beleive we have 20 so far (the list is 19, but one is long since paid).

 

Waiting on pics. Oh by the way you spelled my last name wrong. It’s Riley

 

Wow .. not even half way there!

 

Didnt realize you were actually coming up with something like that. I was just planning on glueing them to the housing. What you are talking about is even better.

Jimmy

 

why do you think this thread exists. the cost of the clips is why the $50 deposit was needed. the rings we had nothign worry about because the current rings are the right size (we're lucky) for us. it was the clip molding which costs money.

i'm still being patient. good things come to those who wait.

 

Marco is right.
We'll do this, we are proceeding as if we will get close and pull the trigger anyways.

BUT, since we gave the headlight to the mold maker for measurements, we won't get it back. It's hard to explain why or how, but sometimes, we have to make decisions based on what we think is best to proceed. So, the toss-up was - get the engineering done or spend another 2-3 days setting up the headlight and losing the engineers time for another 2 weeks (they had a window of opportunity which we took advantage of).

We NEVER glue our setups. Glue weakens over time, is sloppy, and has too many variables (weather related).

So, we persevere

It's really as easy as "click, click, pay"

 

what do you mean i'm not gettin my headlight back..........

j/k, i said you could have it anyways...i guess i'm glad i didn't give you the ballast, cause i actually did need that.

i emailed you, reply back when you get a chance. and thanx again.

 

Ok so if you no longer have the headlight what are you going to use to take the pic?

 

we're supposed to get it back by Wednesday.

 

Wednesday is here and no light

But one more depositor

Have faith guys, we're still proceeding as if this is GOING to work out.

We think we may just give you a smoking deal (like something free) in return for your patience.
How about some blue bulbs to make it easy to change colors?

B Dunne is included.

 

bumpity bump

 

Free is good .. Free is always good =-D .. these lights would be good too .. if ppl actually started to jump in on the deal .. no rush though i suppose .. since its gonna snow again in nyc GRRRRRR ...

 

TTT....

 

umnitza, have you considered returning deposits to those people who have paid $50 and start the GD all over again? This time, collect $100 for deposit.


~limsandy

 

He'll still need the same amount of $$$ though right? but I'm game for whatever, I'll pay more, make a bigger deposit, listen to country music... whatever it takes

 

Polo .. your PayPal link has an error ... can you check it out? I'll deposit $50 as soon as it's fixed. Tkx!

Unitzma .. you should put the same but corrected link in your signature.

Where those pix at n e ways?

 

If i have HID on my car can I still install the Demon eyes if so where do i sign?!?

 

these demon eyes are only for HID (02-03) maxima's.
sign up by finding a link in one of these threads or emailing and asking him where to send payment.

thank you for jumpin in and joining this deal.

 

Can you use one more person.... where do i send the 50 bucks too

 

https://www.paypal.com/xclick/busine...rency_code=USD

that is umnitza's link on his sig. i clicked it and it worked
in the comments, put your name, .org name, and address. in the subject, put "maxima demon eyes deposit"

i think that would be all. do we need more people, yes. we always need more people. the last count was around the mid 20's, and the original goal was 50, although he said he's tryin to do it without NEEDING 50, but that still shouldn't stop other from helping out. adding more people will help speed up the process, as costs are probably limiting him from doing as much as he wants to do. like maybe only make a few at a time as compared to making 30 sets.

but again, thanx for jumping and helping out.

 

Yes, he needs $2500. Therefore, at $50 deposit, he needs 50 people. If he raised the deposit to $100, he would need only 25 people. And I think we already have 25 people, including me.


~limsandy

 

I got's another $50 for the $2500 sac! Anyone else who has already paid want to do this?

 

i don't hink you people understand. take $180 final cost and x 50 gets you the total cost for this whole project. the 100 deposit no wmay help, but it's the after costs that's really gonnna complete everything. we will still need $180 from 25 other people to complete the cost for this whole project. it's not just deposit that's making this work out. it's also the after costs....hope this makes sense.

 

PayPal took $55, not $50.

 

Seriously .. what's up with that?

I cancelled my payment because it prompted payment for $55.

 

Isn't that what paypay charges you to take the money out of you account. (checking, saving, CC. Which ever you setup)

 

10%? No .. it's a charge that the vendor has automatically set up for shipping & handling.

$5 is nothing ... but I absolutely detest hidden charges or undisclosed charges of any sort.

If you tell me it's $50 .. then make sure it's that and that only.

 

You could skip the link and just paypal the above address. That's what I did anyway.

 

True ... but I don't know why it's automatically prompting for that additional $5 ... at the end of the day I'll pay the $180 plus whatever shipping ... .. like I said though .. I hate hidden charges.

 

I think Paypal does that based on "settings" - so for example, if you assume that ALL payments are $50, you have to set up the Paypal account to either exclude or include shipping based on a flat fee or a percentage.

I suspect Jim has it set to %, so Paypal adds 10% to whatever your payment.

I don't know why that is

I can set up the payment to be $50, but I can't predict how it works from there.

No worries, it just brings us that much closer.

We just added Kevin C. to the list - that makes 21 or 2.

But I have great news, we are proceeding with the deposit on the mold anyways, call it fortuitous circumstance.

In any case, I can send an email to y'all but what's going to happen, once the mold is made, it will cost a set amount.

Those that contributed early (before the completion of the mold) will get in at the price that we stated already $180 TOTAL + shipping.

Those that get in after the mold is made, I'll determine price but it will be $225 TOTAL + shipping.

TOTAL = $50+130=$180.

 

Do you know the approx time we have to submit to still get in at the 180 dollar rate? I'm waiting for payment this coming week that's why.

 

Yeah what he said

 

Exactly, dont use the paypal link, just go to www.paypal.com, log in, click on send money, and put in his email address and "Maxima DDE deposit." That is what I did and you can send whatever dollar amount you want.

Jimmy

By the way, if this thing goes through, I will be stoked...

 

R u in Nathan?

I have US funds in my PayPal account so lemme know ... ciao!

 

You keep mentioning "quality" over and over again. What materials and processes do you use that are different than the diy? (ref: http://www.geocities.com/jvxdriver/angel_eyes.htm )

Also, there's a $30 kit out now by StreetGlow (ref: http://www.streetglow.com/site/image...e/powerpak.jpg ) that can achieve similar effect for a fraction of the cost. What makes your kit $280 special?

 

I haven't even paid Unitzma .. but I'd prefer to pay the $180 (not $280 as you originally mentioned) over the two that you brought up.

1. These don't even go all the way around ... they look foolish .. 3/4 rings.

2. They don't appear as brite as Unitzma's (but .. I guess the brightness can be played with using an image enhancing program)

1. How are the powerpak's powered? I wouldn't want to keep opening and resealing my assembly .. I "think" that with the $180 kit .. it's much more permanent ... sort of a one shot deal?
