Default Export (euro) tails

Let me introduce myself. I recently purchased a great c5 and am trying to keep it stock, but I really like the export tails...

Searched for it, and seems like there are good instructions out there, and some good write up.

Seems like there are several vendors selling them. What vendor would you recommend? I ask since I don't want to waste my time on fraudulent/unreliable merchant sites.

I am also considering used ones with a harness if any of you want to sell it.

I am looking for the red/clear set with a harness, not the red/amber.

thanks for ur help.

LAPD. Do NOT get a kit that does not have a plug-n-play harness.

While you're back there, add a blinking 3rd brake light. You can stop a lot faster than anything else out there.

Mid America had them for $200 with the harness (red and clear. Red and yellow are more exp for some reason). Was going to pull the trigger on them myself a few months ago and never did.

They are still on their website at that price, but it says low inventory.

What does that look like ? I just put a painted plexiglass piece over my reverse lights and added a LED reverse license frame.Tons brighter than stock.
