6LE Clear Honeycombs
6LE Clear Honeycombs What happened to the thread about these taillights? Also they are not listed on his site anymore? Did he give up on them altogether. Have not been in this section in a while but remember it being a hot subject for a while, but the thread seemed to have disappeared.
I've got a cluster **** of a story with them being an early backer, but basically the end product turned out to be a low quality product with lots of defects, and maybe that's why they took them out all together.
it seams like the honeycomb part was the cluster **** from what I remember of the thread, if they only sold them as clear "blanks" then people used those to create custom designs it would have worked better, there was just to much curve in to many directions to properly recreate the honeycomb on a flat sheet of vinyl that then had to be stretched to fit.

If you're looking for frosted tail lights... You could be super awesome and do frosted grids like yours truly

Thread was a cluster f@ck so we took it down. They're not dead, just still f@cking problematic.
Crooked part is fixed. Just still trying to find the best way to lay the vinyl so it doesn't bubble over time.

^^I can get some pics when we get back from AZ. Basically thought we had it ALL solved. Mailed out some of our lenses only while we were getting ready to do some of our installed housings. By the time they got to where they were going the bubbled.
The ones we still had sitting here did NOT. Driving us nuts. They were from the same batch so now we can't figure out if it is a fluke or some environment during shipping

lenses 6LE,
So if I wanted just clear lenses only would you sell them? I have some ideas I'd like to try. Also if I bought just the lenses and later down the road wanted to go with the honeycomb vinyl would you sell just that as well?

Restoration companies do this all the time. YearOne, OER, and many other companies have made a mint by doing this.
This idea could possibly work for other areas that 4th gen owners are having problems with that are discontinued such as dash pads, and other interior parts.

My biggest complaint with the grids is just that - they're grids. They will delaminate. I'm not going to spend a decent amount of money/time on stock looking tail lights that will delaminate.
