Thanks guys

It's done, we just need to get enough units produced for the release... I would say 2 weeks till units are shipping in the professional packaging.

I buy OEM from NewEgg all of the time, so I'm sure most of us will be happy with a cardboard box and a paper installation guide.

SV Concepts III · 09-12-2007, 09:28 PM

You guys might be satisfied with that but we aren't

A premium product deserves premium packaging and presentation.

Cis · 09-12-2007, 09:40 PM

if its done why are there no pics?

dArNeLLi · 09-12-2007, 10:57 PM

premium packaging at a cost up for the consumer

Former_Boosted_IS · 09-13-2007, 06:37 AM

Having done business with Umnitza in the past I can say the guy does create quality products. I have spoken with Matt at Umnitza many times and he is a good guy. I actually simply LOVED the product he produced for my Lexus IS300.

At the same time, it seems people are being teased with deadlines on here that you guys do not seem to be meeting. Teaser pics are probably the single most important thing if you want guys to put this mod on their list and not move on since the wait seems to be forever.

SV Concepts III · 09-13-2007, 11:17 AM

I can assure you that we are not trying to tease you guys, we are just relaying information based on Umnitza's ETA of when they will be available. Unfortunately with product development comes delays, we are trying to minimize these as much as possible but we are also trying to prevent the same issue we ran into with the first version, namely premature release.

Dude, read man. JLevi is just a reseller of their product. They don't make the lights. They are just passing on the info.

BaLLzZz · 09-13-2007, 05:18 PM

we want themMMmM

Shinchan · 09-14-2007, 11:44 AM

Here are important factors for E92 and need to be verified before most of us will buy it.

1. NO Error on Dash when Running it as DRL.
2. No Error on Dash when the HID is on. (Coz.. we know when the HID is ON, the power is cut by 1/3 for the Angel)
3. In DRL, the outter ring must be bright enough.... or equal to aftermarket H8 bulb brightness. No point to swap it if the outter ring is not going to be seen at all.
4. When HID is on... its it somewhat bright to see the outter ring.

xxballinboi786 · 09-16-2007, 09:41 PM

any updates?

they would be greatly appreaciated so i can move on with my life! lol

Very well put....

SV Concepts · 09-17-2007, 08:50 PM

OK guys - Umnitza has a tester unit.

If you're in the bay area and are able to drive to concord for a test (and the opportunity to buy the first unit), call Umnitza at 925•521•0577 and ask for Matt!

dArNeLLi · 09-19-2007, 12:09 AM

anyone on this? i personally don't feel like volunteering after my third attempt

09-19-2007, 02:09 AM

posting this in the california section would help.... maybe ill do so myself

timn · 09-19-2007, 01:12 PM

I was going to go, but they are in Concord (about 50 minutes from me). I can't get away from work to get down there.

Nyulak · 09-19-2007, 09:41 PM

If you need a cold weather tester, I'm available.

It's almost October in Ohio, it's only a matter of weeks before the snow starts piling around here.

SV Concepts · 09-20-2007, 12:03 PM

These will not be affected by cold weather

Have they tested them out yet? Any pics?

"07"BobbyBimmer · 09-20-2007, 12:13 PM

I definitely think at this point when pictures are posted, there needs to be a shot of this product on one side of the car and a GP Thunder 8500k in the other side to show a comparison. If you dont do it now your going to have to do it later as you know this is the comparison most people will want to see. Alot of people are running the GP Thunders right now and will want to see the difference, especially since the GP's can be bought for around 15.00 a set. Just thought I would give you a heads up on one of the pics you should be including in any that you post.
