Default Halo Tail Lights: JWM vs Corvette Envy vs Radioflyer

What’s the consensus here. Three different vendors selling similar rear halo mod taillights. Looking to update the butt of my Spiral Gray 2004. There seems to be a variance in price across the three vendors. Is there a difference in quality? Had anyone had a set from multiple vendors? Looking for what is going to look best and hold up.

RadioFlyer customer here. Happy, with no complaints. Always get compliments on my modified halos.

Haven't dealt with the other 2 vendors yet.

I have had the RadioFlyer modified LED tail lamp package on my C5 for about 3 years now and never had one problem. These lights include built-in resistors so there was no need for any separate hyperflash harness. Also a true "plug-n-play" deal.

All come from the same source. There might be differences in how they mod it, but it shouldn't significantly impact quality.

I bought Corvette Envy's lights the day after I picked up my C5. They've worked great, great quality, and I personally haven't noticed any difference between my modded halos compared to other modded halos. Very happy with their service too. He was able to rush them to me by a saturday so I was able to fully enjoy the newly purchased car with them before the weekend was over.

Thanks for the feedback! Glad to be able to get them to you to enjoy as soon as possible.

Yes they are the same product, we ship from CA while the others ship from TX and OK.
If you're interested, check out the for sale posts I've made with the promo code.

One of these companies created the "Halo mod", Euro halo mod and 3-stage Sequencing modification.
....and only one of these companies offers electronic repairs on the rare instance a single or group of LEDs goes out.

I bought my tail lights from Envy and planning on ordering the Bi Xenons from RadioFlyer very soon. I don't see how you can go wrong with either vendor.

Been around CF for quite awhile.
IMO, George (Radioflyer), who has also been around CF for quite awhile, is both highly skilled and an honest guy who stands behind his products.

I’ve had a couple things needing repaired on mine and he is the only place that offers any repairs on them. I originally bought my halos from JW. Then sent them off to RadioFlyer for the sequencing mod. So I can vouch for either one. I have no dealings with the other company though.

I agree, Radio Flyer (George) was a pleasure to deal with and the quality of their product is outstanding.
