Anybody interested in the hyperwhite (mild blue tint) PMB, send me a PM. Long sent an extra hyperwhite as a demo, and I fell in love with the pure white.

This way you can pay longtran, and then I will ship it out... Long, let me know if you want to ship this elsewhere for you.

Longtran: question and also possible idea for additional R&D on the PMBs....yesterday, while we were doing our install, couldn't help wonder if the OEM angel eyes bulb could be upgraded to a higher intensity/wattage. Is this something you are looking into or maybe something that can be easily sourced? I think that brighter bulbs would really bring out the PMBs...

yes, i was thinking about that. but this a risky. it will be too hot for that area. not sure if that bulb can handle it or the plastic around that area wont start melting. but there is a way.

yeah, it is not PMB's fault.

i didnt even touch anything about electric.
anyway, need to back to dealer.

Oooh I can't wait for Longtran to reverse and re-engineer those angel bright kit....and he will/should sell it to us at below $60 bucks rather than $350 (based on PMBs being about 17% of Brex Prices)

I live in Toluca Lake and have the Hyperwhite's installed. Long personally installed mine and I have his autograph on my inner wheel fender; can't see it because it's dark but it's there so I say!
