Looks like you found it, you have to attack it from the rear end. Reach way up in the hole, almost to your elbow. Wiggle your arm around and you should feel it, a little flash light will help. Wash your hand afterwards, it gets a little dirty!

:cheers:

Mine works great!

los7883,

We have these LED taillight kits in stock and they make the C5 look different over any other set-up available.

They are also brighter than stock and light up faster over the stock lights when you step on the brakes.

You can see a bunch of pictures of the kit here:
http://www.stores.yahoo.com/corvette...7presc5le.html

Here is a lighted pic of the kit:



ENJOY!

Shawn

Can't tell from the pics, do the lenses have built in reflectors? And are they DOT certified?

You are thinking of a different prodcuct. This is a rapid flash controller for the brake light.

I'm asking if they meet DOT standards, and if the lens has a built in reflector (like a bike reflector). The reflectors are required by DOT and are necessary in order to be visible to other drivers when the car is parked on a street at night for example. All stock taillight lenses that are DOT compliant have built in reflectors.

Fox,

Yes, these taillights are DOT approved and have built in reflectors in them. They are the circular ring you see in the picture around the LED pattern.
