Default Vette Lights Oracle side marker

Oracle side marker lights, How long has the lead time been from the people who have purchased them? Was told 4-6 weeks since ghost painted. Past that now. How long did it take for your orders?

Mine took almost 2 months I think.

Ordered before Christmas, got them 2 weeks ago.

Painted and tinted.


EDIT: OK, I lied. Ordered 12/27, shipped 02/20 (received 02/22 but I am in Canada). 8 Weeks from order to ship. Not bad considering holiday season.

I ordered mine on 2-3-19. Received them on 3-5-19. I ordered tinted and painted, not ghosted. I haven't install yet but excellent paint match and finish.

If I recall it was 2-3 weeks at most. I recommend them.

I guess I got lucky and they either had them in stock or liked me. It took me 7days from order to install TR/tint. Regardless, I'll do it again on the C8 if they look like OEM crap.

I ordered my a few years ago. Ghosted in Torch Red. They shipped them in two days and I got them inside a week from order. Paint was perfect! I guess I was just lucky?

you fellas with the ghosted versions. Would you post some pics of the lights on? Maybe around just after sunset and at night. I've seen pics of the clear ones....super bright. Just wanna see the ghosted ones illuminated.

Thanks guys...

Custom-painted orders do take much longer. Mine in Sebring Orange took 6-8 weeks as I recall. They installed easily and work perfectly. Side visibility is dramatically improved, and it's a much cleaner look.

Same here, and yes they are a vendor. Vette Lights is the retailer, but Oracle does the painting.

Easy install. The GS and Z)6 have an extra bolt at the bottom that attaches the front splitter that also needs to be removed.

With the lights on:
