There was a thread about the LED headlights for the C5 some time ago and the consensus was worst lighting than stock lights.
End of story.

I saw these at a local show last year. They remind me of something that would look better on the Mars rover. Not my style. Heck, this may be the model car on the advertisement based on the Tigershark bumper.

That could be a really nice looking C5 with different headlights in my opinion, You can't beat the hidden headlights.
I was thinking it might be the same also.
