Default Anyone Using a Sequential Tailight Adaptor With LED Tailights???

I've swapped every bulb in my Vette with LEDs (except the UV tubes in the IPC) but I've been holding off getting Halos because I have a tail light sequencher and I always thought the faster switching of the LEDs would look odd. But perhaps I'm wrong!

I would appreciate any and all opinions of anyone having them or did have this combo...

Thanx!

I own Adjure led tail lights. I had the sequential as well and it does not work. I called everyone I could think of and they say it does not work. I didn't get it to work and I have the cable to make your leds blink properly as well. That doesn't help the problem. I was hoping it would though. I like the look of the sequential blink like the old Thunderbirds.

Hmmm!

I have the Halo LED taillights. I had the sequential and the third brake light flasher with the stock lights. When I switched to the Halo LED taillights. I installed Richard's ( Corvette Enhancements ) Flasher harness. Only took 15 or 20 minutes and everything worked just fine. No problems at all.

I have the flasher harness and it didn't work out for me? I will have to check everything again, although everything works perfectly except the tail light sequential.

Thanx for the input... How does the flashing sequence look? The incandescents have a smooth transition although they are faster then what I would like. The LEDs are instant on and off but may actually show a bit more of a delay because of it, at least I think they would...

The modification for sequencing is $300. I use brand new LEDs and custom designed PCBs. takes about a week to build a set. you WILL need a hyperflash bypass harness.

Yes, they look awesome in smoked cherry. C5vetteLS1 did the tinting on these:

Thanx for the info Tony... I'll check it out. I think I went through the same people.

I already bought a two prong LED frirndly Flasher for $8... I'm just gonna cut the two wires for the flasher and crimp female spade lugs unto the ends and hook em up to the flasher. KISS!
