any problems with your kit.?
i just ordered dr.x kit, but i still like to know.. :D
i am sure sam's kit is up there when it comes to the quality, but a look wise, it's hard to compare it with the hightech one.. imo..
tidbit 04-21-2003, 08:02 PM the hightech speed kit.. is crap.. I was lucky I was savvy enought to salvage what I had to make it still work.. :fact
martinc 04-21-2003, 08:04 PM 6 months later,did HTS finally came up with a plan to deliver all the paid/ordered tail kits?
That is the question.....
VPREATR 04-21-2003, 08:09 PM martinc:
Mine arrived, latest revision without complaint. Quality appears solid. The owner stayed in contact with me during the wait.
Thanks!

hehe.. i take that as the quality blows.. but as far as it works, it looks the best.. :)
JasonC 04-21-2003, 10:09 PM Doesn't McCoy Motorsports have one on their site for 159.99??? BTW, I would not recommend the Hightec Speed kit. Basically, a real bitch to install, and the control unit is not waterproof.
02R1Phreak 04-21-2003, 10:10 PM links?

scroll down to the lighting section.
Magnus 04-21-2003, 10:13 PM Its not hard to do at all...really its not... If you get one I will walk you through step by step if you want.
tidbit 04-21-2003, 10:19 PM Personally HTS has solved many of their problems now.. They basically sold over 100 units.. (and yes it took over 4 months) to test them.. We e-mailed them back with all the problems.. Like.. I myself.. had about 6 connectors pop out.. and these things are little as **** (mind my french)
Like hell was I going to send back the units to them.. and wait another 4 months.. The first few that got the kits from HTS basically have flawed units.. Bad connectors... No waterproofing.. so on so forth.. If you order their kit now.. I'm betting it wont be as bad.. But I myself would never buy a product from a company that uses a "non" finished product to sell and test the market.. and still doens't offer us to upgrade for free...
Would never buy another product from HTS no matter how good it is.. :fact
02R1Phreak 04-22-2003, 08:19 PM hoghtechspeeds looks a hell of alot better...... damn i dunno...... have to think about this one.... anyone else have an opinion?
Buy the Dussault and have done with it. Besides, YOU won't be looking at it. :fact
02R1Phreak 04-23-2003, 02:29 PM so wahts so really bad about the hightechspeed one... just connectors? if so man thats an easy fix no problem...... comon tid and jason help me out here :) i really love that tail!

02R1Phreak 04-23-2003, 07:58 PM This the tail you guys are talking about?
http://www.customled.com/ must say i like the looks of hightechspeed better but i like this one also because it looks brighter and safer..... but no cool designs.... thanks guys.
tidbit 04-23-2003, 08:58 PM if you want cool designs HTS is the only way to go..

i ordered mine about a week ago. i guess i still like the hightech better for its variety of light patterns, but went for something different.. :D
i had to send out a money order cause they only take master for now. :crash
`bertr1` 04-23-2003, 09:56 PM I made my own tail light, I kinda ripped off the custom led design, but mine is half the cost!

and my LEDs are brighter...he takes off too many red ones, I like things as stock as possible...I had to do something cause my highmount wouldnt go with stock signals
02R1Phreak 04-23-2003, 11:00 PM wow that thing i sweet....... i may have to go with that one!
tidbit 04-23-2003, 11:02 PM Your LED's are crap :fact
I ordered the CustomLed unit and it was on back order plus I did not like how many red LED's were eliminated. In addition, the price is a bit high in my opinion. I wanted the Samanna kit but did not want to wait. I purchased the Amber Flux LED boards from http://www.graphicartmotodesign.com/ and installed them today. It took me over four hours because I took my time and made sure everything was done top notch. I must say, it looks great and I saved a ton of money. The flux boards only cost $59.95 plus $7.00 s/h and they are very high quality. Check out the pics below.

I only eliminated four red led's and it is hard to tell when you look at it. The only problem was that Graphic Art took a long time to get the LED's to me but I am also pretty impatient ;)
tidbit 04-23-2003, 11:25 PM Oh that reminds me... I got 2 of thoes boards sitting on my desk.. Bob never got back t me on em.. So you can have them Trey.. Just returning a favor ;)
`bertr1` 04-23-2003, 11:35 PM my LEDs are crap? why do you say that...they are brighter than the stock red ones...tidbit can I buy those flux led off ya? how much?
tidbit 04-23-2003, 11:50 PM uh.. Depends on if trey wants em or not :P
