They are probably stolen and have no bulbs, but it is at least paypal vs money order, so may be legit, or he may just take the money and close the paypal account and then they can't get your money back when you get a brick in the mail!

Hello.

Ha ha.

spdy330 · 08-14-2010, 08:50 AM

I would be careful on this one. Yes they have 100% feedback but they only have 1 feedback.

Positive Feedback (last 12 months): 100%
[How is Feedback Percentage calculated?]

Member since: Dec-24-07 in Poland

Also the guy has been a member since 2007 and only has done 1 transaction and lives in Poland. Not sure if that would be enough to make me want to gamble on this. If someone here does jump on them good luck and I hope you really get them.

If it is legit, it will be bid up

Best : JB3 + DCI
Worst :Purple Fuzzy Dice, too hang from rear view mirror

NiVeDh · 08-14-2010, 01:39 PM

No bulbs, ballast, turn signals, AHL module and other controllers I'm guessing. Basically, housings only.

mathu.bala · 08-14-2010, 01:44 PM

That price is about right. Everything is missing including the computer

. You will spend atleast 700 more so I guess it makes sense.

Are these AHLs (I'm almost positive, just making sure as it's not explicitly written anywhere in the auction)?

If so, how much more stuff will I need if I have pre-lci AHLs in perfect working order and would be willing to swap all my hardware to the new lamps? I know I'll need LED turns, but how much of the rest is interchangeable?

Also, is there a way to reprogram my computer or solder some electrical component into the lights so the LED turns don't throw any lights/codes? I've read because of the lower voltage they tend to...

If this is reasonable, I may be interested in buying. I have a great relationship with paypal as I run a side-business on eBay.
