WOW, very smooth. Was it difficult to break it open?

Would it be possible to have the modified OEM lights in its own thread so we can try to remain on topic and not confuse anyone?

The lens from the OP do not seem to be on track to ship by the 30th day. I’ve reached out to the supplier and the smoked lens are still not ready for shipping. June 30th would be 30 days but I don’t have my hopes up that they will shipboard the timeframe given.

I will echo a remark that I made earlier: do not buy until they’re actually in someone’s hands stateside that can take more photos, videos showing operation and attest to the initial quality.

Timeframe update

I’m not being told another 3 weeks, so mid-July as the new ship date.

Becarful ordering from Vland

I ordered the smoked set Back on June 1st I waited the 30 days, E-mailed "David" about estimated shipping and he says they have no order and requested I email order info. Emailed him 3 times now with no update. Will give him another day or two then will get refund thru Allibaba.

I reached out to the supplier on Monday and again on Tuesday. Thus far, no reply. If I don’t hear back soon I’ll be applying for a refund.

The supplier got back to me. They are not ready yet. I’m being told by the end of the month so another week and a half.

I’ll reiterate, I would hold off on ordering until they are readily available and at least 1 of us have them in hand.

Let’s not all signup to be the guinea pigs.

Another minor update, the supplier and I have agreed that if the end of month shipping target is not met then the order will be canceled and I will receive a refund.

As a rundown:

Ordered on 6/1 - Initial shipping estimate was 6/15. Supplier asked to give it until 6/30 to ship.
6/30 - I followed up with the supplier and was told mid-July.
7/16 - I followed up with the supplier and was told end of July.

I assume that the red lens is available for immediate shipping. The wait/backorder/production is for the smoked/dark lens.

I had ordered the smoked lights on June 1st. Last week I filed for a refund. I received a call last night from the Alibaba trade assurance people and agreed to 1 additional week if they could ship. E-mail this morning stating that company could not fulfill order and my refund was being processed. That's a shame as these would have looked great on my yellow 2016 convertible...
