Default Ghost Lights Installed

I finished installing the ghost lights on my 1987 Convertible.

I think they turned out rather nice

For anyone else wanting to install these remember to use the orange and white wire from the door light to power the ghost light projector. This will turn the light off when the door closes.

I will post more pics later on a howto for it.

Seems the site is having youtube issues at least for me.

Maybe this one will do better.

Thanks !

One thing you will need to do to work with the C4's doors is to black out the circle part with a sharpee marker or paint. The outer circle part of the light will hit the door edge and look weird. Blacking the circle out just leaves the inner logo and the word Corvette which worked great in my opinion.

Close to the of the door length wise and fully to the edge at the door panel side. I'll shoot a pic of it in the daytime tomorrow.
