I gotcha. The reason I was planning to order tomorrow instead of today was for stragglers.
Now that everyone is paid in full, I will order today.
I had one person express interest in a PM for two low beam lamps. I have not heard back from them. If you read this, get back to me ASAP.

Verifying from the front list on post 1... I have ordered 58 Low Beam modules, and 54 High beam modules....
The 4 additional low beams were for two people. One set for myself, and one set for someone in the list.
I have asked for photos of the packing/shipping progress for you. It will take up to 10 business days to complete the order and ship, (just what I was told), but expect it to happen a lot sooner as everything is in stock.
I will not be ordering replacement adjuster clips or kits with these lamps. Only the adjusters that come with the lamps themselves will be included. This is everything needed to mount the lamps in a bracket.

If my math is right, it was a lot more than $5k...
Yep... For the lights and the packaging materials I purchased, I am sitting at 5300. Then, the remainder of that is shipping to get it from me to everyone who ordered.

Two people were unable to participate, so I have removed them from the group buy list. We had a total of 30 "yes" and 28 "yes, here is some money".
I spoke with Hella, and was told again up to 10 business days to pack and verify an order of this size, but was also told that since everything was in stock, I should hear something by the end of this week.

Haha, rad. Guess finally having the buckets done and shipped was enough to light some fires under people's asses to get some modules to fill them with.
Updates. Lights are boxed and sitting on the dock for UPS pickup.
The bubble bags were not used by Hella for some reason, they used Peanuts...
I am pricing bags, but may end up just wrapping in foam roll before reboxing.
I had them inspected and packed for me by one of the local to Hella vendors, a smaller shop nearby. I also made sure to pull a few extra lights out of pocket in order to make sure things arrive in good condition. I can then easily replace anything damaged quickly.
