I need to finish filling out the paper work, but it looks like it will be around 120 with free shipping.

It's only "urban" if you hit the strobe function, till then they are just kick arse rock lights.

Chris, ditto on getting that site up! :flipoff: << I know that doesn't work here, but you know what it's supposed to look like.

real urban is a outside mounted loud speaker playing the Main St. Electrical Parade music with the music sync on while cruising the main strip in town...

I'm just thinking, the website says that the system is "water resistant"
Anyone have any experience with how water resistant they really are?

For some reason, my remote wasn't working this last weekend when I went to Superstition 11. I'll try a new battery, but it shouldn't be dead and the indicator light on the keyfob still lights up when I hit the buttons.? If the battery doesn't work, I guess I'll be checking out their warranty, lol.

Other than that they worked great this past weekend. I just had to get my butt out of the camp chair to play with them.

Emailed VisionX and they got back to me very quickly. Turns out I just needed to reprogram my remote as it probably wasn't correctly programed before it left the factory. They emailed me the simple instructions, and the cool thing is that you could use this method to use the same remote with two kits if you had two kits on your rig.

It all works now.

That would be cool! You could have a set of lights under your truck, and in your interior and they would both do the same things at the same time!!!

Sounds like they're a quality company if they got back to you so soon with instructions and an explenation as to what was wrong and how to fix it. I can't wait till I can get my set

Yes, they have been great and super fast in replying to my emails.

Just an FYI, I asked about adding additional pods to the kit as they sell individual pods. They informed me that the individual pods just come with a two wire (red and black), and they can be spliced into the wires on the kit. They suggest only adding two pods per channel on the D block as any more might pull more amperage than the master control could handle. This is great as I want to just add a few more lights, but didn't want to put them on a different switch. :thumbup:

Definately hit up Tofer for these, they are fun and can't get any easier to install.

You can speed up the strobes and that one pattern gets fast at 1:20 LOL, having the remote is cool.
