Rear Tail Light Idea/Question
Ok what i would like to do is get rid of the reverse lights and replace them with stock tail lights. So then I would have 4 stock tail lights working as tail lights, brake lights and turning signals. My questions are, where is a good place to get rear lights for a 1980, and how to wire it all up, and is there a snowballs chance in hell that the C6 lights could work with some mod.? I think this set up would be bad ***, but if you guys have any ideas about where to put a reverse light would be great cuz i have no idea. THANKS

Buy some cheap, low-profile fog/driving lights to use for the backups. mount them under the bumper. The taillight housings are available from any of the vendors. I'd recommend using the LED bulbs so that the new lenses last longer - the heat from the taillight bulbs wrecked my originals.
