Yep, I just installed mine last week and I really like them a lot. I wasn't too sure at first because I've always liked them better with 3 bulbs instead of 2,.....but after biting the bullet and getting them, I'm really glad I did!!!

Below is a thread I started last week in which I included a link to a company that sells (IMO) the best product out there. It's a simple "Plug & Play" wiring harness that took me less than 15 minutes to install. If at anytime you decide to remove it, it simply unplugs from your existing socket and that's it......No splicing, No cutting, just plug it in or unplug it!

I was thinking about getting one of those too.

I went out a few minutes ago and took a quick video with my VERY CHEAP camera, so don't expect much.

I have had mine just over two years.
Easy installation.
Loads of comments.
The right side died after about 15 months... No issue relaced under lifetime warranty.

I have them. They are ok . I wish the delay between lights was a tad slower. I contacted the manufacture and was told because of the fast blinker the C5 has already that they can't get them any slower.

Had mine for 2 years+. Love um too...along with the 3rd brake light pulser. The sequentials are just some neat looking bling... the pulser is, IMO, a good safety reminder and I could not care less if it bothers someone behind me - if it does, then it is doing exactly what I want them to..... Draw attention that the car in front IS breaking, so slow your A@@ down and get off my bumper.

I had mine for a little over two years. Loved them. Only problem I have is that if you aren't extremely careful, water can get into the main socket. Since I've taken my taillights out several times (to install the flush tailight kit and change the rubber seal a few times) and apparently didn't get it tucked in just right to avoid water getting into the socket.

The result was that the socket had to be changed out. The sequential harness needs to be changed out too but I've decided against putting it back in.

I've also got the third brake light flasher (had that for about 3 years) and noticed the other night that it no longer flashes for a few seconds and stops (just keeps flashing). Guess I'm gonna have to work on that now too.

Default Sequential turn lights and third brake light pulser !

I just installed both items from webelectric.com and I don't know how the kits could be any easier and better (unless they sent the torx driver with the kits ). No cutting, no wire splices, just unplug, plug and play. My vote for easiest mod or the year. Only down side is you never get to see how cool they look while you are driving.
