2009 Dealer Expo Show!

March 23rd, 2009 by Scott (General Manager)

  2009 Dealer Expo Show!

 

In the midst of a February Deep-Freeze, four members of the ElectroSport team left the comfort of our warm California Sunshine to head into the freezing cold of our Nations Mid-West. 

 

Scott, our General Manager, Laura, our Operations Manager, Eric, from Research and Development and Trent, Technical Sales all packed up and headed into frigid nine degree weather.  In addition to arctic shock, we also enjoyed long work days and sleepless nights….  Why? To attend the biggest blow-out-bash industry show of the year of course!

Ford F350 HID lighting conversion kit

March 17th, 2009 by Eric (R&D)

Ok… so, it took a while to recover my sight after burning my retinas during the last HID installation on the Jeep Jeepster but, I am back at it.

Colby, the Service Manager at Anaheim Harley in Orange County, CA asked about lights for his Ford F350 after seeing all of the HID kits that were being installed in the Harleys going through his service department.  Colby’s truck has it all… a lift, custom interior, billet wheels, and even retracting steps to climb up into the cab.  Our HID light conversion kit was an obvious choice.  Not only is it much brighter than the original bulbs, it is twice as bright as the single bulb HID kits being sold out there when on high beam.  You see, our high end kit has two bulbs packed into one :)   When high beam is on, both lights scorch the road!  When on low, there is a solid area of light in front of the car or truck but, because of the way that they are designed… oncoming traffic is not blinded.  Pretty cool.

Jeep Jeepster HID Sealed Beam Headlight Conversion

March 9th, 2009 by Eric (R&D)

Let’s face it, old jeeps are just plain cool.  Like any vehicle that has years of use on it, things get old and technology that once was state of the art becomes a relic of a bygone era.  Don’t get me wrong, I am a fan of vintage stuff but, every once in a while something comes along that transforms the way that you see things.

When Pete from JP Magazine contacted us about doing a HID kit in his Jeep Jeepster to replace his original headlights, we jumped at the chance.  Pete is a complete Jeep addict with something like twelve or thirteen Jeeps.  He uses his Jeeps the way that they were meant to be used… hard.  He wanted bright lights but he also wanted to keep the original look.

Headlights on classic vehicles are anemic at best.  Sure, it is a step up from a whale oil lantern but not much of a step up.  I knew from my own classic cars over the years that Pete was in for a treat.  Moab is going to be fun this year…
