Default Euro Tail light conversion

If you have seen any of the Euro Model C-6s then I am sure you noticed the tail lights. At the corvette museum, there is a Callaway Speedster on display that has two amber and two red tail lights....looks way sharp! I want something to set my Vette apart. It seems the lowered black C4 rolling on black A molds is getting pretty common. The kit I am looking at would be installed on the outer lenses and splits the lense in half with the red on top and amber on the bottom. I am planning on some of the Euro side marker lights, that should be pretty easy. Question is...has anybody done this taillight conversion? If so, was it hard? And got any pics?

If you have the square lights then I believe there are kits etc - I did mine (88) with the round amber lamps (GM Export) but I don't think that's what you are after as these are then complete camber turn lamps in the outside position and red stop and tail lights in the middle.

Corvette Central has the kit, part# 494167(91-96)
If you have an 84-90 the part# is 494188

When making a post please include the year and model of your C4.
please and thank you.

p.s. the 91-96 light kit requires modification

Thanks Bubba91, I completely forgot to post year!!! It is a 1994. The Corvette Central kit is $88.20 per light (!!) plus like $180 for wiring harness. Seemed a little steep. SteveC4... At the beginning I was looking for the conversion you have done. The car in the Vette museum that has the conversion you have looks SWEET!! The C6s have the split lights. I like both. How hard was it? And more importanly, how deep did you have to cut into the stock wiring harness?
