Sequential Tail Lights
I installed the sequential rear turn signal kit from Zip in the Z06 yesterday, very easy mod to do and the lights look pretty cool now.

Seems to me it would look better with a three tail light set up. With only two they will just alternate off and on. Or do they do something else?

Thanks for the post. I was looking at the Kit versus the individual parts and thought if it worked I rather do the kit. I am also adding the window valet....

Cool mod. I did the "blink blinks" with my Red/Amber Euro's. Nice look.
Add the "flashing" brake light kit and your set

You mean like the Mercury Cougars and Ford Thunderbirds of the late 60's? Anybody remember those? Or did I just show my age??

I had a '68 Cougar, loved that car, wish I still had it. Those sequential lights were awesome. Saw that available for the Vette and intrigued me. Don't like to over do it with cosmetic mod's but I think that would be a nice touch.

Personally, sequential turn signals look good or atleast ok when there are three lights. With two lights the effect is more Police car caution.
It's just my opinion...

With three lights they are sequential. With only two lights they are alternating. I like the effect of three much better.

I was just about to post that I agree with you guys, but then I saw this...

...and it doesn't look bad. I do agree that 3 lights has a better effect, but since the kit holds both lights on for a second, it does make it sequential, not alternating.

I saw a set of these on E-Bay and they really caught my eye. I was wondering if anyone had these for any length of time and if they had any problems?
