Default Front License insert Lights

For Christmas, I got a Gift Cert from Eckers, with the intent of getting Front Bumper License lights.

Ecklers HAD them here

In the last month, they have been discontinued.



I spoke to chickie-poo on the phone, and she said that they sent the work out, but didnt know to whom, or why they discontinued it.
(She also offered to refund the gift cert value back to my GF's Credit card, but I will use it for other things, so its not lost money)

Anyone know where I may get these from?

Any/All help is appreciated.

Thanks

Could be that they were discontinued because they may be illegal. The vehicle code in most states will list the lights that are permitted and/or required on a vehicle.
Then again, I might be full of swampwater but I gave it a shot.

"breathless" didnt have them listed on there web page, but I emailed them anyway.. who knows?

They seem to have a lot of stuff along those lines, and they may be able to point me in the right direction.

Could be some good SwampWater.
I once got an infraction-type of ticket for having blue running lights on my car. Only amber and white allowed in the front, red and amber on the sides and rear, plus white back-up in the back. Wi DMV law.

Spoke with the tech at Ecklers today, and they used to sub the work out to some guy named dave, that lived local...

I guess they had a falling out, and he dosent do the lights for Ecklers anymore.

I live in Orlando, and the local vette club members know EVERYONE that does something with vettes local here. I will ask them.. Its fairly close.
In the mean time;I'm going to email the Titusville corvette club and see if they may know the guy...
