Website is good, I love it. So glad to see someone doing well with some wicked skills.

Some thoughts...
I would reduce the size of the main image at the top. 1.2 mb is way to big.... slow load time.

Also, make sure you setup some analytics on the site so you can see how people are using it. Easy to setup.

I would recommend adding a favicon and changing your title in the HTML to remove the word "Home".

Also, being able to pick from a list of options (via drop down menus) would be awesome. Makes it easier for your customer.

I am sure you are probably aware of this and it is still not done. I hope you don't feel I am knocking your site... just giving some thoughts.... take them with a grain of sand.... or is it salt. :waytogo:

I didnt realize you were on mid perch, sorry I would have lowered them for you. They will be close but may be a little high. Drive around the first night and see what you think, if you need to lower pull up to a large wall about 25 feet away. to lower turn the stock adjustment clockwise. Bring one side down a few inches then bring the other down to match.

Basically they should be high enough so your not having to turn your brights on all the time but not so high that they shine in the back of other cars windows.

Took the truck out tonight without having any time to aim them. pulled up behind an explorer at a stoplight and the cutoff was right below his rear window (still in the paint). So, I might be good. One cutoff seems a little higher than the other, but that's just a little tweaking job. Thanks again man. I already love the illumination it gives me at night as well as the dirtyness it adds to the truck.

Nice, thank you for the input. Obviously Im no pro, hahaha, just using one of those online website host's.

Couple questions - what exactly is a favicon ? lol, I think there was a option to add one. What would you replace home with ?

Not sure if there is a option to add drop down menu's but Ill check it out.

Im not the most computer savvy guy in the world so I really appreciate the help.

Highest quality bulb's you can buy. The 35w SVS has almost the same lumen output as a 50w bulb but runs cool because its 35w.
CBI is also brighter then standard 35w bulbs and has the purest 5000K white output there is.

SVS - D2S: Osram Xenarc 66240 SVS - HID Bulbs from The Retrofit Source Inc

CBI - D2S: Osram Xenarc 66240 CBI - HID Bulbs from The Retrofit Source Inc


- Osram SVS(4300K) or CBI(5000K) + $150

Can you educate me on these?

the favicon is what shows up in the URL bar or in the tabs.... just like this
favicon.jpg

I would just remove the word home. When someone drags your URL to their bookmarks bar, the TITLE will show up as the name. You should keep it simple and short. Remember, some people will be using mobile devices to get to your site.


Not sure if there is a option to add drop down menu's but Ill check it out.

You should have to have the ability to have an online form, which most of the time means you need a database backend to store the information. That is why a Google spreadsheet form is so simple and easy... it dumps its information into a spreadsheet. You may have the ability to insert a form into your site from another place. You can usually put your own CODE into a site from vendors, which means you could use some online form creators like JotForm · Easiest Form Builder to create it and add it.

Im not the most computer savvy guy in the world so I really appreciate the help.

I am a Director of Technology at an advertising agency, so I have been around this stuff for a long time. PM me if you want any more help... I would be willing to give you any comments.

Ducati - ur lights are awesome. My black SCREW shows up 10 Sep. I have a few questions.

- I'm in military and have Ohio plates but live in California. What are the laws for blacking out the side ambers for me? I'm looking at blacked out all the way around with amber LED rings. I certainly don't want a fix it ticket.

- what color of shroud should I go with? A silver or a black?

Thanks and would have PM'd u but don't have enuff posts.
