Subject: Why I sell the E-Code lights as a kit
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed
I have been approached by folks many times when they find that I sell a
headlight kit for the square e-code lights by folks wanting me to sell
them just the lens housings only and not the rest of the kit. I guess
they figure that they can save some money by not buying the whole kit.
However the reason why I put the kit together is that when you go to
install your lights you have everything you need and you can fully
install the lights and start using and enjoying them right away. Also
there are holes in the light housings that require the proper boots and
sockets to be installed in them. Without these parts your expensive
lenses become junk in just a few years since this would allow water to
enter the housings every time it rains. I know the kit is not cheap but
is it a good deal to buy just the housings and then have them become
junk because water is getting inside? Is it a good deal to go to
install them and all of your adjusters break and now you have no
headlights while you wait for new adjusters to come from the dealer?
If this sounds like a good deal to you then go ahead, it is a free
country. I will continue to provide a quality kit for those that want
things to work properly the first time and don't have time/money to waste.
Just my opinion.
