LED Tail Lights
Has anyone tried installing LED tail lights on a C4? If so, where did you buy them and do you like them?

I have the LED kit from Adjure and I love it. I bought them from Corvette Central.

About 30min. It replaces the stock lens. When i painted my stock ones a few weeks ago they did not come out easy so I ended up removing the housing. You probably will have to add about another 30 min if you have to do that.

'84 to '90 had round tail lights. In '91 the rear bumper changed and uses square(ish) shaped tail lights up to '96.
