    I'm interested in seeing what you do with the Web site this time around.

    By the way, my IP is still banned on your site.

    I'm definitely hoping the E36 deluxe kit hits clearance and I can pick up that set down in HB soon.

    Just to summarize your message, you can make more money selling other things and will stop selling things for breakeven? Sure you were not undercutting the Market for the extra cash-flow?

    I am looking for e39 DEPO headlights. I know you have them on the site but for the rings, it gives those other options that I don't know anything about... And I'm assuming that the rings that come with the headlight according to the site are powers by 4 or 5 halogen bulbs so I think it will look funny. There are no pictures for it so I can't really tell... Can you tell me?

    Also, for the upgrade to chromuims, what are they?

    Also, the DDE Ultra HD, how many LED's are those? 60? 80? I saw on your website rings that have more than 80 LED's... So if I upgrade the rings with my purchase, which HD rings am I getting?.

    Also, there used to be an option to upgrade to DDM HID kit, so I guess you guys are out of those now?

    One last question about the e39 LED tail light... Do you or anyone have pictures of how those lights look like when they are working?

    Please let me know so I can make the proper purchase.

    Thanks a bunch.

    For the potential new LED products, would you be able to manufacture anything similar to these: http://www.visionxusa.com/LED/c1/index.html This is one of the only companies making these types of lights. Besides my E36 M3, I have a 4runner that I would like to put some of these on. But, at $400 for each light it's a bit too much.

    Any thoughts Jim? There's a huge aftermarket lighting category for jeeps, trucks, and off-road racing....

    Seems like no answer is coming.

    Anyways, I just placed an order on DDMTuning for e39 DEPO headlights with chromuims and 55W raptors... I did some search and found out that chromuims are basically CCFL which I really like and prefer over LED's and also since your website does not specify how many LED's are going to on the rings. I wouldn't go with anything less than 80. I hate that dot like look.

    Anyways, looking forward to see them. Btw, I didn't order the DEPO tail lights and side markers yet from you... I just wanted to see the headlights and get a taste of the quality of these things... I know everyone say good things about them but I'm not in a rush on those.

    Thank you!

    Will you guys be doing anything with specs close to the CREE 3w XP-G/XR-E LEDs? What about optics and drivers?

    I ask because these are pretty much all the rage right now for Reef Aquarium lighting but they are expensice as hell($6-$8 per LED, and $1-$2 for each lens) and with 1 led per 5-10 sqin even small tanks get up there fast in cost.
    M5 because why not have a 700hp baby mover?

    Garbage. Looks like someone made that junk piece of forgery in 5 minutes. People need to remember that DDM is a business and whether you like it or not, they are going to do what makes them money. Why do anything but? The coilover issue is in the past and thats the reason they were discontinued. The hid issue is laughable because who cares? Its rather displeasing to see people hate on others business strategies when Jim is the one that made himself and his company a goal and achieved it. Especially when those bashing him for it are sitting on one end of a computer dreaming of doing what he has already done.

    Jim-

    What's the word on the DJ Auto e39 headlights? I know my friend ordered a set back in december, and I also ordered a set for myself. He told me ya'll were on back order, but could you provide me with some sort of expectation as to when they will be arriving?

    Thanks

    Greyhound shipping works very well. If you ship a lot with greyhound you can sign up for a student discount and save a lot on shipping. Best part is you do not have to be a student to get it. I can ship big stuff for as low as 30.00 !
