Tail lights
I need some information/advice on replacing my taillights (07 C6). I want them to be brighter and am considering LED lights. Any recomendations on brands and instillations? I have heard they blink faster than the stock ones unless you install something to prevent this. Any help would be appreciated.

You have a few options.
You can replace just the bulbs with LED 'bulbs'. Check VLED'S V-Star for example.
Or you can replace the entire taillight. Eagle Eyes is a popular replacement with Forum Members.
In either case load resistors are required. The LED's do not present enough of a load for the 'flasher' to work correctly (hyper-flash).
If you Search 'LED tailights' you'll find a wealth of info and pics.

The Eagle Eyes LED tail lights are used by MANY members of the forum. They are VERY bright, especially at night.
You can find these for around $270-300 shipped on the web auction site.
I've had mine for 2 years.
Here is my thread on them.

Eagle Eyes, available on E-bay, have their own resistors, and are plug and play. Much brighter and are instant on.
ncvette beat me to it.
