Also got a "dam they are cool and bright"! I had to speed to catch up to you to see what kind of car had those leds!!

Thanks for all of the interest guys. At this point I'm not sure if all of the kits will be spoken for. I still have to contact people who originally showed interest and see if they are still interested. Usually some people drop out and it opens up spots for others. I will put you on the list in the order that I receive messages / pms / emails and will let you know!

Thanks again!

Thanks for the continued interest everyone.

Slowly but surely I'm making my way through the list here. I've received a lot of pms, emails, and messages in this thread so I have it organized in a spread sheet. You're all on the list, so not to worry!

Just hold tight and your turn in line will come up

Thanks!

Does anyone know what the signal plugs in to and what the brake light plugs in to????

There are 2 white sockets and 2 gray sockets


The signals have never lit or flashed in any of the sockets and the brake light will light with the lights on, but when the brake it pressed they dont brighten.

I think I have a defective set, it shouldnt be this hard.

Any tips? The pdf doesnt help

It refers to top and bottom contacts, which doesnt help when they can be held top or bottom easily depending on how you hold it.

busa, is this Jeremy?

I sent you an email in response to the one you had sent me.

The turn signal socket is the single contact, and the dual contact is your brake socket. Take a look inside the socket and you will see two contacts or one. The bulb connectors respectively have two contacts or one.

I saw in your email you just ordered the LED flasher. This could be the root of your problems. The stock flasher does not like LEDs as the load is very small compared to the incandescent bulbs. Let me know how this works out and we'll get it figured out for you. Don't worry!

The actual tail light housings are definitely are not included. GT lights command a pretty high premium these days and they are few and far between. Fully assembled means that you will not have to solder anything. Just take your tail lights apart, pop the panels in, and plug in your sockets.

I apologize for the delay on the notchback kits. I'm in the process of putting them together so they're on the way. All of you notchy people who have shown interest will be getting messages soon!

Thanks again guys!

Hi mental, I have here documented that I replied to you after your pm on 11-19-2014 and I haven't heard anything since. I assumed you were no longer interested?

If you'd still like a kit, I have one more GT kit left. Someone has messaged me about it, but I haven't heard back from them either. So right now it's first come first serve. Also, I have enough parts here to put together another kit if it comes down to it.

Just let me know

Thanks!

Thanks for the response and offer. PM sent. I hadn't changed my mind. Last contact I got was from 11-18-2014 answering my question:

"Hi, I still have you on the list here!
...I'll be in touch shortly. You wanted a kit, correct? Not fully assembled?
..."

Your response must've gone to someone else by mistake because I've checked PMs and even checked my PM notifications by email which I never delete. Nothing was received. Got your PM from today, though. Thanks again.

Should add that I was wondering on pricing. The link and sight just says $250 kit form and 335 assembled, but doesn't mention shipped or not. Thanks for any clarification if the shipping additional.

EDIT: Got it. Payment sent.

Yeah that's me, they work now. I didn't think I had to upgrade the flasher, but after ordering and installing the hd flasher they work fine.

I also had a lot of that goop inside the sockets so they would twist in the sockets
