Default Ordered my DEPO Whistler'd lights yesterday, order cancelled due to recall???

Anybody else have this issue? Just got a call from Amazon saying that can't process the order due to a recall on the lights. DAMMIT! I had a car show this weekend, was hoping to be sporting some new parts

I have had 3 orders cancelled by 3 different vendors. Ebay and 2 sellers on Amazon. I even tried getting a set of halos(which i didn't want) and they weren't available either.

I bought a set of black bezeded depo's on ebay and vendor told me they were on back order. It sucks cause I just got my car back from paint and lights are all I need to make my car look factory fresh.

Recalled? For what reason I wonder?

And what impact will this have on BLS and the retrofits they are in the middle of? Delays maybe...?

We asked the same thing when we heard. No answer was given from the supplier but it only affects a particular shipment, not housings that have already been shipped to customers. They are not able to send any housings that are recalled. As it was explained, the recall may be actually for nothing but the company wanting to make sure there actually isn't an issue.

The housings we received look great with no issues. Unfortunately, we are one pair short for our GP run and the customer has been notified of the delay. Thankfully this person is being patient and will wait until these get back in stock.

As for your set, we are working on them as I type this .

And don't even bother trying to buy a used set on here, it's like pulling teeth for people to get back to you on this stuff. If u don't want to sell the ****, don't list it.

Go with tyc, much better housing and worth the price difference. I wonder if they are fixing I think the low beam bulb mount, it screws in and out opposite it should.
