LED lights
Good morning
Last month I changed my 2010 coupe for a 2017 Grand sport. I am super happy so far
I had somoene change all my interior lights to LEDs on my C6
It seems to me that the GS has most of them except the trunk
Can someone confirm if that is the case and if they know what type of light bulbs I need to replace the two in the trunk?
Thank you in advance

I don't know about the 2017 GS, but the only non-LED lights in my 2016 are the trunk and license plate lights. I ordered replacements as soon as I got my Corvette. They are plug and play. Very easy installation. Not sure what the #'s are, but you can find them on this forum. The LED's are much brighter.

are they the same light bulbs for all?
Thank you!

Check out this thread from a forum vendor. Have not done it myself yet, but thinking about the trunk replacement (no need for me to make my license plate more visible 
)

Part # is T10 for trunk and license plate bulbs. I bought all four from same vendor. I highly recommend changing them to LED's. I think I paid about $10 for all 4 bulbs. Remember if you install them and they don't light up, reverse the bulb 180 degrees and try them again. Good hint is to try them before putting lens cover back on.

Go to VLEDS they sell the brightest leds on the market. They rate there bulbs by actual brightness (Lumens). Buy the flank kind, you will see what I mean. Not the cheapest option, but the best.

I may be in the minority here but I'm not a fan of the LED license plate lights. Some of the ones I've seen are so bright it makes the license plate the focal point at night.
I did replace my trunk lights.

I guess we both may be in the minority. I only replaced the trunk lights as well. I don't understand the desire to make the license plate light brighter.

I went to install the replacement LED bulbs for the license plate today and had a slight issue: one of the bulbs flickered repeatedly. I think it's actually just a quality issue with the no-name bulbs I bought from a Forum vendor. I guess I'll return these bulbs and buy higher quality ones and hope they don't have the same issue.
