It is illegal to have any white light emitting from the rear of the vehicle while driving in most states, unless you are reversing.

Still a bit puzzled so didn't order the:
  • From 2024 Pricing File
  • Under Exterior Options
  • GM DV3 Engine Lighting
  • Coupe Only,
  • MSRP = $100, Dealer cost = $80
Nothing ever is a ~$100 Option!

See from several GM Parts dealer they are selling a "lighting kit" for ~$200. Two lights and two wiring harnesses, depends on model. Looks like what was more money in 2020. BUT the install instructions has many parts requiring removal.




For my 2020 C8, like many I installed remote operated battery power lights and attached with 3M Dual Lock. But after the novelty of using to show the engine when driving at night, I removed. Don't need for my E-Ray,

But still puzzled what you get for $100 and hard to envision it being installed on the assembly line!
