E-bay?
Need to get a Paypal account and I am not sure about merchandise purchased there. Anyone have any bad experiences using that system?

Since I won't be buying a used 2015 for 3 years I'm going to purchase LED tail lights then tint them. Also I'm going to install some two tone seat covers.

The red tail lights look so clean with a light tint, this should have been a refresh item on some of the later year C6's

Sorry, these are tinted - not the black ones.

Installed my new set of Eagle Eyes on my GS today. 15 minutes and up and running. One of the easiest mods to do and the car looks great.
I had these on my other vette, but sold it last week. I didn't waste any time purchasing another set.
Flea-bay $232.

By tinting those tail lights won't you get stopped by the CHP? They always come after us for tinted windows and no front plate.

Go to flea bay and type in corvette c6 led tail lights, and you will have a ton of vendors ( all different prices, got mine for about $240 with shipping) Make sure they are Eagle Eyes, as they list the manufacturer. Awesome mod, they look great. In a few years every new car will have these

I moved to Laguna Beach from MN in August and I don't plan on registering my car. I have a lot of bolt on mods such as headers that won't pass the inspection and if I can keep registration in MN until I buy a C7 I should be ok. Now having tinted tail lights and no front plate could cause me some problems...

CHP is a sticker for this kind of stuff.

Just installed the Eagle Eye LED tail lights on my 2011 Grand Sport. There is indeed a small
(1/8"?) gap at the bottom of the light housing compared to the stock lights preventing it from sitting tight up against the rear end. A simple application of a small piece of velcro at the bottom of the opening easily remedies this situation. They are definitely RED and MUCH brighter than the originals. Look AWESOME on or off! Should be stock on all Vettes. Mike

Yup!!!
