Default euro light conversion

looking for gm part # for euro tail light conversion "kit". the after market suppliers sell it. (i think that it is a "gm" kit). trying to save some $'s by getting direct from gm parts @ discount.

thanks for any help.

p.s. the guys at the chevy garage can't be bothered to try to find this for me.

I can't help with the part number Jim but pretty sure the GM doesn't sell the harness for the second set of bulbs you'll need. Maybe you already know this.

Welcome to the forum! Here is a link that may or may not be helpful: http://www.pfyc.com/store/merchant.m...ode=VTLIGHTING If you're not in a hurry you might try posting a wanted ad in the C5 parts for sale section here. I got mine complete with HD harness and 100 W bulbs cheaper than you want to hear there. It is a great mod. I've heard them called 200MPH lights and they are. I've never had anyone flash their lights at me with the lows on. The brights will just about burn down trees. The only slight drawback is that reflective streetsigns will blind you when you have the brights on.

They also have euro lights for a good price. I have euro lighting in the front and rear.

thanks for the great info!!! i called corvofhouston and they sell the lens assy for $24.95 ea x 4 = 99.80 + $125 for the harness. this is much less (total 224.80) than i've found anywhere. $279.95 is the cheapest (vettegear.com) for complete kit. i could save another $30+- by buying lens assy from COH and the harness from pfyc.com but 224.80 from COH is a good price! these will look very cool on my 04 white/oak/oak vert.

thanks again
