Don't be alarmed USPS tracking is just like that. They will likely show no progress, then show "delivered" the day after you receive it.

usps doesnt have realtime tracking. Their scanners upload to their mainframe when all the carriers return from that days deliveries. And since every station runs a little differently, some are more strict about the scanning policies, while some are more lax. Outside of that, they deliver to every address in the book, while ups and fedex doesnt-that's when they pass it off to usps and they focus on their bread and butter-next day or 2nd day deliveries-a premium over usps prices.
:tongue (2):

Ummm....so what does that mean for my 2004 TL? I am still trying to find out if that silver cap on the front of my fogs will affect the cree's. Just waiting to find that out before pulling the trigger...its a go for my fx, just dont want to pay twice for shipping:frown:
 
Hey guys so I received the bulbs and tried installing them but they won't light up. The bulb base looks just like the turn signal bulbs (only two prongs). When I plugged the oem dtrl bulbs to the turn signal it lit and when I plugged the LEDs into the turn signal they work but not when I put it in in the dtrl slot.

I once read that you can modify the base to make it work but can someone help me out here?

Hey guys,

Sorry, I just realized the problem that eJay mentioned. Sometimes the pins might be in different directions where it does not make contact with the harness connectors. So flipping the pin in this case would be the perfect way to solve the problem. Here are some pics to illustrate what I mean, thanks guys!

Make sure you don't flip them too many times. The contact pins will break off
 
Please let me know if you guys have questions. Thanks![/quote]

how do i place my order for this. im in the group buy just a lil lost. please help. i want to pimp my ride:ninja:
 
I tried bending them backwards and made sure that the wires are in contact with the connector in both configurations (original position & bent back) but nothing worked. If anyone else gets it to with, please let me know!

Thanks!

You flipped them too right? I remember something about they don't work one way, but if you rotate them they do. Or maybe a blown fuse?

Biggest question is how did you get them already, if you're in VA!

Haha I have no idea of how I got it so fast. Anyways yes I tried flipping the wires. And its not a blown fuse because I put back the original bulbs and they light up just fine. Ill play with it some more and see if I can get it to work! I hope no one else has this problem!
