Anyone have the diamond cut clear back up lights? How do you like them? How do they look? What bulbs did you use? Any pics? Thanks!

I like the clean look, I used chrome bulbs but I might switch to LED's for the back up lights and also the license plate light.

I have LED plate and back up lights and they are brighter than stock.
I was also thinking of getting the diamond cut clear back up lens. Now after seeing Bill Vett's I'm going too!

These cars look GREAT!!
You can get these at Ecklers, Corvette Central or Mid America Motorsports. Ecklers seems to be about the cheapest though at $119.00.

Who sells these and how much? They look pretty slick, would love to see some side-by-side comparisons to a vette that doesn't have them.
