I just spoke to JW Speaker and they are having trouble building the lenses for the 8700 lights currently. They said it is going to be 3-4 weeks before they ship any of these to anybody. on a good note we do have tons of trucklights available to ship with the anti flicker harness..

My JW Speaker headlamps for my JK took three weeks from the time I ordered them from Quadratec. That was back in August. The matching fog lamps took two months! I just received them two weeks ago. Both are awesome and worth the wait though. Make sure you get the anti-flicker harness. They flicker pretty bad. Its a joke that they don't ship the lights with the anti-flicker harness, considering we are spending a shit-load for these lights!

I totally agree! I have the harnesses on order, waiting to purchase the lights when I can find a better deal.

Anyone have any updates on the JW Speaker Evolution 8700 backorder situation? I ordered mine from 4wd.com on Nov 1. I'm still waiting on mine.

Can't wait for the headlights to arrive. My Truck-Lite PWM harnesses for the install are sitting on the floor behind my desk and are starting to mock me.

I ordered my 6145 fogs on Oct 27. Received them on Nov 8. The fogs are great!

Well, guess I should start ordering from y'all now! Especially since there's a shop in Longmont.
