So far, he has left me with a less than "warm and fuzzy" feeling.
Possibly a $40- lesson learned.
if you paid through paypal.. you can get your money back..

report a problem through paypal.. log into your paypal account.. go to RESOLUTION CENTER and REPORT A PROBLEM

the seller will have to provide tracking info or you will get money back

no lesson to be learned for you he will have to still pay eBay listing/final value fees

I'm surprised to hear that some of you had a bad experience with this ebay seller.
My experience was fine....5 business days later and I got lights.
I would suggest for those of you who are thinking about it , to check around. I'm sure that there are other retailers that will provide the same product. It can't be only one person who is selling these lights.

For those who have ordered from "the ebay guy", would you say these lights are the same (looking for someone else to do business w/)?

He was a great seller for me too. I even contacted him about one of the bulbs not producing the same light spectrum and i sent it back, got a replacement, all in the same week.

check on ebay at http://stores.ebay.com/MotoringMax.

This guy is an expert for LED and HID products. I have got all my HID bulbs, HID foglight and LED interior lights from him.

A very inexpensive and easy upgrade. If you are contemplating in doing it, It is worth it.

I posted this in another thread and thought it would be helpful here.

I just got my lights from the ebay guy yesterday. I was starting to worry a little bit but there the package was in the mailbox.

It took me about an hour to get 8 bulbs in. FWIW, the screwdriver I was using to remove the covers to maps light was too small. That plastic is very soft and I did leave a very slight indentation in the edge of the plastic. Yes I was using a towel like it's illustrated in the manaul. Again that plastic is very very soft even malleable to some extent.

Once I switched out to a wider and larger screwdriver I was able to pop the covers out relatively easily. I was thinking that smaller was better but not in this case.

Just be careful not to mar up the trim edge of the map lights.

Oh yeah, the LEDs look great. Very different glow to them and I think it complements the HIDs immensely.

Just got my plate bulbs from the same motoring max guy on ebay and got the item quickly shipped. Haven't had time to put them on yet. Just curious I haven't looked at the plates can you replace the bulbs from the outside or do you have to go through the trunk to put them in?

For those thinking of ordering these LEDs.

The ebay seller doesn't have the leds anymore, heard they may be on backorder. Here's another alternative, click on "Miniature LED Light" on the left tab. It's the exact same bulb (4th from the bottom in first top section). Just ordered mine for the license plates.

http://www.hid-lights.com/

There was also a long thread about LEDs on the Acura TL forums, someone tested some of the LEDs from autolumination.com and superbrightleds.com, and highly recommended the SuperNova (www.autolumination.com) for license plate, and WLED-WHP (www.superbrightleds.com) for the interior lights.

I bought my 10 pack off of ebay.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...0217776&rd=1,1

The license plate looks great, the interior lights are as not as bright as stock, but the color is much improved. Lot of 10 leaves 1 spare.

The pics of those VLEDs looks to have a slight bluish hue to them. Would you say this is correct or are they pure white?

The VLEDs look pure white to me. The ones above my license plate have the color of fluorescent lighting (very white). I used them on the interior also, not as bright as the stock lighting, but I like the color.
