Very nice, however I thought tail light seals were only needed when you performed the flush mount mod?

They look good, however in this pic, and others on your website, the illumination doesnt seem to be consistent between taillights.

It is.....it is just the way the camera captures the light....they are exactly identical from light to light...

Would it defeat the purpose of getting these LED tail lights by putting black out covers over them? Or will they shine just as bright

Per your description, the light draw less energy from the electrical system. Will the car's computer interpret that as a problem, and throw a code?

These lights are very nice. They look amazing. I have these on my C5 and am about to do the Halo ring mod. I can't wait until they are done!

Curious ... another vendor that sells these same LED halos states that you have to change out your turn signal flasher AND your hazard flaster. Is that true ?

Default They do Hyper Flash

They are the best tail lights out there and get more comments than anything. These will hyper flash but that is easily solved by plugging in a hyper flash harness under the dash.
I also did clear front corners with LED Yellow / White bulbs and no hyper flash after the harness

Okay which is true. Ralm1953 says they do hyper flash and a harness is needed to eliminate it ?
