I was referring to TheRadioFlyer, the gentlemen that already posted in this thread. From what I have seen / read, he is a master at these cars and their systems.

I also have the sequentials from EHay... I've actually been refraining from LED tails because the stock bulbs have a slower flash then the LEDs and IMO look better with sequentials...

I like sequentials but not with LED's. They look too "artificial" or "gimmicky" somehow. Too jerky in motion or too "digital", maybe.

Get both. - I first took notice of these lighting modifications when I was behind my friend’s corvette. IMO, I will tell you that from a safety point of view, it definitely stands out in the evening for the guy behind you. You're not going to notice the difference (because you're in the car)... BUT to the driver(s) behind you, they're going to notice the sequential taillights (you're directional intention) and the flashing third brake light because it catches their eyes quicker.

Please post up an install Thread when you do!

I installed LED bars in my side brake vents and then tied them into my turn signals, that's quite the attention getter at night! This is possibly the worst video of all time but you get the idea;
