Cool Need Two People For Testing New Headlights

Need Two People For Testing New Headlights:

As some of you know I deal with serveal companies, We are in process of making and testing new headlight design for the cobalts. We need two people and two people only. We will need your stock headlights and a new pair will be sent to you and photos after installed will be required along with phone calls. You will need at least 20 posts to be considered. Izn Trbl is the company http://izntrbl.vstore.ca// we will not make or sell headlights at this time for the general public. These will be true hids. Complete hid system, fiberglassed inside painted to match your car, and your choice of halo ring color. We will choose two cars based on the info you give us.

1. why should we choose you?
2. what mods do you have?
3. are you 18 years or older?
4 what car shows have you been to and what do you plan to go to in near future? ( this includes local event and meets)

We will choose two people monday. Then we will pm those people to get all the details etc setup. Once we get the testing done in about 2 weeks we will be a vendor here and start selling. These lights include true hid setup with halo rings and are a direct fit (bolt on) and some wiring required, we just need a few more people to finish up testing. Thanks and have a great day

below is the vette which will be similar to the cobalt lights painted your choice of color


below is a sample of lights the cobalts will have a clear cover


Please note: We will not choose people based on who posts first, last, etc. Also being male or female or of any race is fine. We do not discriminate.

1) You should pick me because I replied early (early bird gets the worm). Also, I won't f up the installation.
2) I only have the ETD for now. I have a pretty extensive wish list and continually researching different mods I want to make sure it's what I want. Take a look in my VBGarage to see more.
3) I am 35 years old.
4) I volunteer at LeMay Car Museum, check them out! www.lemaymuseum.org They have all kinds of events such as parades, shows, they even sponser race teams.

1. I have a pretty well modded car, I attend as many car shows as i can, My car gets alot of exposure to the racing public. I am pretty knowledgeable of my car, its parts, and it's capability's. My car is a daily driver. I do my own installations, the hour I recieve my headlights they will be installed and thouroughly tested. AND I'm from New York, one of the most strict states in the US If noone complains about them here, theyre pretty much legal anywhere.

2. Vinyls, Rims, Tires, Intake, Suspension, Stereo System, Underglow kit,

3. Yes

4. I got to several car meets, I go to races in a nearby major city (Syracuse) every saturday which a hundred or so people go, with lots of exposure to my car. And I attend a local car show every thursday. I have the only modified cobalt in my area, so anything new that gets done gets alot of attention. Sport Compact and Truck Blast show (East Coast Tuners) this summer, looking to get all new parts installed by late july.

yes they are dot approved and all new versions will be. Also the first design will be the same as the corvette, two humps and the turn signal painted your choice. We can make any and all styles but i will not go into details as we are not a vendor yet, also the people who test will be without lights for a max of 2 days. The 2 week period is to see how they actualy hold up on daily driving conditions etc. We have great test results as of now, just wana get some more from daily drivers etc. These will not be retro fit, but we can do retro fit. These will be true hid system setup, the parts we are using are in testing and will not be for sale until two weeks thats why they are not listed on the site. Any other questions feel free to ask!!! Snowbred we can do something like that once we become vendor or pm me, but ours will be like the vette with true hid and your choice of angel eye also a projector turn signal too. As said look just like the vette but we can retro fit for cheaper.

^ Longest sentence in history.

Here's an idea, why doesn't this company buy headlights off eBay or from a dealership and give those away. That way, you don't have customers missing headlights for 2 weeks.

Because he's asking people to send in their headlights as apposed to a core charge, it’s just ridiculous.

it is gonna be a core charge in the future we are testing a design using some parts from the stock headlight ie the clear cover needs to be measured and a couple more things we cut off the stock ones to make our molds instead of paying 550 for true hid lights we are doing it free then you come along and complain go back to time out

so what you are getting headlights for FREE. This guy is going to make your headlights into projectors with HIDs and all you have to do to get him started is send in your headlights so they can use them. It is a very simple way to start out and establish a good customer base. You give some people something for free and use theres as your template and then when you start to make money they will reccomend you since they got your equipment for free. Then you can buy headlights and make customer pay a core charge. VERY GOOD IDEA IMHO.
