Found the answer.
it was in the their video for the C5 Corvette.

They call the piece the LED light bar, and you attach it using a T10 Torque bit (which I had in my tool box).
Simple fix.

Below is the C6 installation YouTube video from Wind Restrictor's YouTube channel, The installation video for their LED lighting kit and a picture of a device that I sourced to control the brightness of the illumination. I found that the brightness can be annoying and a distraction after a while while night driving if it's run with a direct connection off of the taillight circuit. I found that the dimmer offered by WR at the time I bought ours to be bulky and expensive so I sourced my own at a fraction of WR's device. I mounted the remote controller on the underside of my console lid with velcro. The dimmer is variable from 10% to 100% illumination as well as on and off. It also stores its last setting so if you prefer 50% or completely off that is what you get as soon as your tail lights are on.
