I'm hoping that EP is not like a number of other fledgling companies.

Startups will take business from anyone just to get started, once they have a toehold, often their roots are forgotten and they're after the profit possible by serving the larger markets once those groups have discovered the startup company does great work.

AMC being the little guy on the playing field is the first to be forgotten by some. Thank goodness some companies have not forgotten AMC.

The interesting thing about EP is that their store shows the 68/69 Javelin/AMX and the 70 Javelin/AMX lights first before even Camaro ! YAY !  LOL alphabetical order ROCKS !

When I talked to the owner, my impression was that he was trying to fill the void of lesser known brands as long as it’s feasible. By having guys like you step up to pay to have them made, it does get them brought to market.

As the 71 lense and housing assembly is about 3" narrower than the 70, can the EP boards be mounted closer together to fit a 71?  Can the boards be mounted on the lense?

Have you tried calling them to see if they have them available for a 71-72? I thought someone on here was getting some made for their car. If they did, they should have them.

I have not tried calling them and will now do so, but they do not currently have them listed on their Website.

They didn't have the LED kit for the 70 Javelin/AMX listed either until I sent in a housing and asked them to make a kit.

From the reports I've read, (mostly off of facebook) they are easy to install. Most have drilled holes in the housings. I'm not sure that's the method I will go with.

I can understand why they make them as the orders come in. Who knows how many they can sell before the market is saturated, probably not many. I requested people to contact them if they wanted LED tail lights when I first discussed it with them. I was hoping to get 10 up front orders, I think we got three or four tops. Ten would have gotten us a substantial discount. There wasn't even enough interest at that time for them to make ten units. Go figure....
My guess is they've made less than 20 units total.
