After I installed my new head unit with a back up camera and my tinted windows I couldn’t see a thing behind me on a dark night with no ambient light I ordered back up LED’s from Vette Lights. Installed them in a 1/2 hour and tested that night on a very dark road. I actually couldn’t imagine them working as well as they did. Still going strong after 2 years.
I ran my car up on two 2x10” to give me a little more wiggle room underneath and they went in quickly.

I agree, jacking the car up makes the install a breeze. You can’t really see what your doing but can kind of feel out the bulb location for the LED replacement. I also recommend Vette lights.
As long as you know the LED bulb type, you can buy them anywhere, like Amazon or Ebay. As soon as you buy from a "Corvette parts retailer" you get charged up to 50% or higher price. It's the Corvette Tax. This goes for any part for the Corvette. I hate being raped like that.
I just installed some amazon ibrightstar bulbs this morning. Much brighter than stock, but probably not as bright as the higher priced ones. Will see how they last. Guess I will be backing up everywhere i go to test the longevity.

Amazon bulbs have been in mine for about 2 years and no issues, and they were considerably cheaper than any specialty bulb store.
