pansontw, I'd be interested in purchasing some of these from you, as I really like the styling. I'm concerned about the quality of the lights. Has the manufacturer informed you on the issue and whether it will be permanently fixed?

When an issue arises from us with these taillights, we respond quickly and the inventory ships out of the United States, where we are located since we hold the only US inventory currently. If an issue does arise, you don't have to wait for something to be shipped out from another country which of course can take a long while. With that said though, I haven't seen too many failures with these Valenti's, not more than I have seen taillights fail on other vehicles using other aftermarket brands.

I'd say you're going to have to contact your seller for assistance.

Anyone who buys from us that has an issue, we replace the taillight. Ask anyone who might have purchased from us that might have had any issues, and you'll see we respond quickly and get replacements sent out fast. No need to worry when you purchase from us

I've had 2 lights with manufacturer date 04/2014 on them and still working on getting working replacements. The initial tail light allowed condensation to form. The replacement light I received was pinned incorrectly and the turn signal lights up as the parking lights and vice versa when I hit the turn signal on the steering wheel. I did not purchase from modbargains but just stating my experience. My advice? Just pay the extra cash and go with some TOMs tail lights. They're way more proven and much more reliable than the Valenti's as of now.

@ModBargains.com

I ordered a pair of the smoked Valenti's through you guys back in August/September, I believe. I recently noticed that a few of the brake light bulbs had gone out on the driver's side.

Are you guys still able to help me out?

@modbargins.com @pansontw I don't suppose that there is anyway to help me out with my lights? I am dealing with Black Beat Motors (formerly Zeta Performance) and they are kind of being less than useless. Any chance that mine could be sent in under your company? Is there anything that maybe you could think of for me to do, or help me in anyway? I appreciate any and all help.
