Thinking about getting the blackout kit, but there website doesn't show any pics with the lights on. Has anybody that had these installed got a ticket?

Never gotten a ticket for them, but have been pulled over before. It's another thing like your front plate not being on. They don't make a habbit of pulling you over, but when you leave downtown at night its what they will pull you over for to see if you have been drinking.

I've been pulled over a couple times for other reasons I'll not get into..... and they have never mentioned the 'Blacked-Out' tail lights...
Mine are also from 'Corvette Enhancements'.

Patches,

Are your corners this item?


Smoked Chrome with Amber
Front Markers
$159.95

Your corners look awesome. The pics on corvette enhancements site shows quite a bit of the amber lense, but it doesn't show in your pictures.

Mine are the straight smoked stock corners. Not sure what those you posted are unless they are something like the clear corners with a light smoke coating. You may want to contact Richard at CE and ask him what those are.
