Eagle eye tailights
What vendor is the best place to buy eagle eye tailights w hyperflash resistors. Corvette Mods $270. And $29/set is what I found so far. Any better ideals

I wouldn't suggest buying anything from Corvettemods. They have a horrible customer service reputation and are no longer a forum vendor.

I bought mine on e-bay, I also bidded and won!
I can tell you they don't come with instructions for installation.
If you look at the back of light assembly they either have numbers or letters, cause they need to be installed in certain position.

Ebay. 1st one is the dreaded by some members Corvette Mods. $249.99 and free shipping. Second one is not Corvette mods and $244.99 and free shipping. They are all made buy the same Company and are drop shipped from a vendor. Hope this helps. Any questions on install PM me.

They don't stand behind their supplier's products and make any kind of problem seem like it's the buyer's fault. The only way they would stand behind a supplier is if they were trying to pick his pocket.

Not entirely true. I purchased Lights from Cmods Dec 15 2015. Did not open them in factory sealed carton till Oct. 2016. The carton had 3 LH lights and ! RH light. Called them and talked to Kaley, They asked for pictures of the rears and I sent them Pictures. They contacted supplier I sent them and had new ones within 2 weeks. Not all transactions are as bad as some people make them out to be.

Don't even get me started on the $20 shipping charge to ship an item in an envelope with total weight of a few ounces about 20 miles away.

Not trying to **** you off Ed. If I lived 20 miles away I would have driven there. I live in the Great Pacific North West so not an option for me.

FYI - All of the Eagle Eyes LED tail lights are manufactured in the same place so regardless of where you buy them from, you are essentially getting the same lights.
When they first became popular some vendors were asking $400 for them while you could buy them on Ebay for $230.
The only advantage of buying them and paying more is if the vendor will warrant them for a period of time.
I have bought several sets (some were tinted by forum vendor and cost more) from different sellers (including Ebay) and they are all manufactured exactly the same.
Suggestion -If you buy a set, get something (epoxy, etc) to seal up the wiring where the wiring goes into the light housing. That will help keep moisture from getting into the lights and will prevent possible moisture problems down the road.

Maybe you should swing by there and checkout what they can do with custom paint and hydro parts, you'd be amazed at the quality...
You may need a mental reset if its been that long and you're still lugging around a complaint from 5 years ago or whatever relax!

They didn't when I ordered from them, so my original point is still valid.
No thanks. Same owner, same crappy customer service from someone who does not care about the customers that make his business possible. He had his chance to make a lasting impression, and it was one that did not earn repeat business. Do a search and you'll see how many people he's treated similarly.
