Had a set of them and I won't go into details about them. Don't buy them. Go with George Argel of Radioflyer innovation where you get the real deal. I have installed 2 sets one for a friend and one for myself. I can tell you all there is to know about the V-2 Cannons.

I'm sorry. To me they give the car a "bug eyed" look. I'd rather upgrade my stock lights.

Thank you.

The "Stealth light cannons Version 2" are the apex of lighting technology for the C5. Better optics, 55w Bi-xenon technology, Impact resistant UV-treated lens, many built-in ways to adjust fitment and aiming as well as many options make this kit a must-have for someone looking for aftermarket high-performance lighting.

Has the front of this Corvette been wrecked? Or is that just a poor installation?

No, it just needs a slight adjustment near the front bumper. It has since been adjusted after the picture was taken. I guess i should have put my car black car in it as an example. As you can see on my Avitar that it still shows the Depo Head Lights which now have the Cannon V2s on them.
