Default LED Tail Lights

Wanting to put LED tail lights in my 97.
Anyone have any opinions on who has the best ones out there? Understand the hyper flash issue but also hear that there is a reasonably easy solution for that.
Thanks,
Bob

Mine are from JW Motoring and they are the best. I never had a hyper flash issue. If you get them from JW Motoring you can also get the "Halo mod" added on....it is real cool. When the lights are on, only the halo rings are on....

The LED halo tails are by far the best....

...plus i can do just about anything to them

Hyperflash can be resolved with a 2 minute installation of a "hyperflash bypass harness" under the dash. Check with C5vetteLS1 for the harness.
