Still running the headlights at some point I'm going to run a better set of halos and maybe a new sequential turn signal, stay tuned.

Talk about every tool in its place! And those lights look amazing,they really make the C5 pop! Not that your car needed any help.

Yes, we still sell these. (However, we don't offer the LED strip option anymore due to quality control issues with the strips)

^ that's too bad because the strip really sets them off. What about using the strip you use in your current corner light modification? https://radioflyerinnovations.com/sh...p-modification

The strip we were using could bend and twist and have upward-firing LEDs through a silicone tube diffuser.....that was the only way we could make it work. The strips for the corner lights can only bend one direction, won't twist and cover only a 180 degree output range.

Thank you. Yes, the location of the weight is what makes it appealing to me. I've been on the fence with this one for years. I can't help but like the old fashioned pop ups but for function yours are undeniably superior in every way. If I ever decide, yours are what I would buy without any doubt.
