L.E.D.Taillights
If you haven't got these yet, you got to get'em! They are so bright,that when you step on the brakes,the car behind your's interior is totally lit up. Should be a great deterant from getting rearended. Also thanks to other CF'ers about info on turn signal fix on my C5. I was messing around aweek ago and stumbled upon the "push the hazzard button 5 or 6 times" fix, now I feel whole again. 
L.E.D.'s? Best 350.00 ever spent

Is it possible for you to post the site that offers these?
Next, do you know if there is any affect on the LED's if you have the sequential turn signal mod?

I've seen a few pics of LED taillights - which ones did you get? Some look very good, others not the best.

They are a very cool mod. I got my "halo" LED lights off E-Bay. They are the exact same ones sold by the large vendors.

Those look good. I've been trying to find a different type that uses the stock housing...
Someone one time had a link to a expanding "tree" style of LED replacement bulb, that once you stuck it into the bulb opening it was able to branch out and spread the light around inside a stock housing.
But i can't find the link. Anyone remember the one I'm talking about?

BTW, the LED's I got off of E Bay are the exact ones sold by Mid America and Ecklers's but the price is $199 instead of $349.

I do love the LED's, but may have to pass due to the sequential.
However - what is the link to the e-bay guy?

I got my L.E.D.'S from MIDAMERICA, "halo design" as shown on Stephen T's photos. I had to remove my sequentials also,BUMMER! I dont know if a H.D. flasher is available. That would be the fix for trailer lighting problems.
