Clear LED third brake light
I was wondering if anyone has done this mod if so could you post a few pictures.
Here is one but I would like a better picture.

I saw it in person... they look good. But, I think it will vary with car color.
I think it will go well with your blue, since you already have the clear side markers.

I also think that it would go good with the clear sidemarker and my red/clear taillights. I am also going to get the clear front turn signals.

actually, I used the side markers from GS Creations. They are flush mount in quicksilver with the Corvette emblem etched out from behind. It includes red led bulbs, so when I turn on the lights, you see the emblem light up. I need to take some pictures of them...if I can get all my hurricane prep done quickly, I will try to get them up. Thanks for the compliments!

WHo makes that rear led brake light? It looks good on your car, quikzilver.
Also I would like to see the pics of your sidemarker lights. Do you have a website for GS creations?
Thanks

Check the properties of the picture I posted..
Here is a picture of the sidemarkers...
Google GS creation not a forum vendor.

Thanks. That sidemarker looks great. It has always bothered me how the stock ones are not flush.

Oooh, it looks cleeeeeean like that.
I have it on my black vert but I also have a Caravaggio spoiler so its hardly noticeable.
IMO, those side flush mount marker lights are tacky as hell. They would be great if they were flush mount diamond cut but NO emblem. TOO much c5 emblems all over your car is a bad thing. Unless you have mudflaps and 13" rims that are 5" too wide for your car.
