You're in the wrong forum. This is where you ask questions on how to use the site. Don't worry about this post, a moderator will eventually move it into the correct forum.

Go to the main menu page and scroll down to the correct forum for your generation of Corvette...post your question in C4 Tech for assistance.

Compared to a halogen bulb, then yes it will show a noticable difference and best of all leds use less power than most of your stock bulbs do.

My neighbor put them in his C-5 and they are a lot brighter than stock. I was behind him in parade at night and they were bright.

You can use them, They are brighter and you will need to change your flasher/turnsignal unit to an electronic style vs a mechanical style in order for them to work correctly. The mechanical style flasher isnt fast enough for the Leds to work correctly.

Answer to next question most parts houses, Autozone, Checker auto has the flasher unit you will need about $5
