I purchased a set of the smoked and pulled them out of the box for the first time today. Thought I might install them. One of the lights is missing the rubber gasket and my package did not include the brackets or screws as the directions indicated. I just took pictures and emailed them to Stephen. Has anyone else experienced these problems?
So, I am not sure if I will be sending them back, or if they will send me the missing parts. I hope its the later.

What "brackets and screws" would they be talking about? There are 4 nuts that hold on the stock ones and those are directly replaceable on the new lights. No additional brackets or screws are required. The gasket I can see getting, but even those are a "just in case" measure since the stock lights don't use them.
Let us know what happens.

mine came with the foam gasket thing. Install was easy. Lights work as expected. I really wish I could make the lines brighter and the lights behind them off when not braking though

-Euro-spec LCI retrofit with V6 Bruce cables
-Mtec 2.0 LED Angel Eyes
-Cold Weather/Premium Packages
-20% Tint
mine had gaskets too...although one was glued on and the other had no glue. The bars suck on these lights, best thing about them is the LED turn signal...I sold mine on ebay a few days ago and bought the V6 cables from Bruce at the discounted price. Oh me and my impulse buying...

I just installed mine, the replacement ones had a gasket, the stock ones didn't. They work fine, no errors and we will see how they handle rain/car washes and such. So far so good a HUGE improvement over the look of the stock lights.
