				so... did anyone take Steven up on his offer and try the HID in the wingtip?  Hopefully my QB wings and Fuse should leave Vans in the next couple weeks and I'm trying to finalize "stuff" to get ordered.  I've included the wing tip lights in the kit but reading the reports tends to make me change back to the duckworths.   That's what I have in the -7A and they've been okay for 500 hours.  Guess I was just looking for the "new"stuff.

  	  | Quote: | 	 		  I am very interested in the shadowing of headlights from the wingtip 
 position. i have taken a lot of time and energy to develop and make a direct 
 replacement hid kit for the wingtip light position. as a matter of fact i 
 just received my stocking order last week (after 6 mo's of delay) and I've 
 been testing the product on the bench. the results have been very good. What 
 we ended up with was a 50watt 5000k hid lamp and ballast to drop in place 
 with no modifications required. 
 I'd like to recruit two flying rv10 owners who'd like to get a special deal 
 on some hid lights in exchange for some real world feedback on the kit. the 
 light output is awesome but if there is any coverage issues i may make a 
 fiberglass cowl light as a third. at 3.5 amp each running two or three 
 shouldn't pose ant problems from a current standpoint.... 
 what has the general feeling been about the standard lights mounted in the 
 wingtips. this is the first i heard about light coverage (shadowing) 
 issues....
