Very intriguing indeed! We need to see more pics with it mounted and from all sorts of angles!

The turn signals I have are from John@Motorcepts. The ones I have are most definitely brighter than stock by a lot.

our current V4 is about as bright as you can get on the market.
But in 3 weeks, after development and testing is finished, we will be releasing a V5 (one that should not require a resistor).

Hmmmm -- I told you there is more to that guide.

Will keep you guys posted
Just opened up a headlight and I am stuck on this part. I have a pre-lci so it's my understanding that there are no screws to remove the black housing. I have to drill to break the seals. I have a couple of questions:

1) How many areas/seals to i need to break to remove the black housing and where are they located? I found a seal on the underside of the light and I'm pretty sure the top is secured somehow, are there others?

2) I plan on using epoxy or glue gun to reattach the black housing (though it might not be necessary as the tabs seem secure enough to hold it in place). Is this what some of you have done with a pre-lci install?

Thanks for any advice.

Just ordered the Orion V2 and the clear projector lens. Hope I get the right connection boxes and rings from Umnitza. Hope all goes well. I just practiced cutting the headlight on a broken halogen set. Can't wait to start this mod.
