L.E.D. Tailights for C5 ?
O.K. so I've installed L.E.D. headlights for better visability and interior lights now looking to change out rear stock tailights for L.E.D.'s. Anyone have any leads where I might be able to order some ? A plug and play option would work best for my C5 . Thanks In Advance !

Try one of the forum lighting vendors - the radioflyer, JW Motorsports, West Coast Corvettes, Ecklers, Mid-America and perhaps others all sell LED taillights.

Bought the Halo LED taillights from Radioflyer for both of my C5s, excellent quality and lighting from both. I think they have a CREE LED bulb option as well if you're not looking to swap out the whole lens.

+1 for Radioflyer!! I bought the rear LED lamp set for my '02 about 2 years ago and they work and look great. Get the "Halo Mod" if you go with Radioflyer. That separates the brake lights/turn signals from the tail lights. It was a true "plug-n-play" install. Resistors are pre-installed so there is no hyperflash.

Bought mine on auction web site and they came with resistors. I was afraid of the heat issue with the resistors so instead I bought and installed the hyperflash harness under the dash.
Taillights and turn signals now LED's and work beautifully. About $50.00...
