  • C5 Corvette LED Reverse Lights Install. Replacing the stock reverse lights on my C5 Corvette with LED. The stock backup lights are not bad, but since I'm changing all exterior to LED, it makes sense. This reverse light LED upgrade to the C5 Corvette is still an improvement over stock.

    I so appreciate this video. My husband did all of these kinds of things to the cars but I lost him November 7th. Maintaining his corvette is just something I feel I have to do. These videos are life savers and I’m becoming a mechanic! Who knew? 🤔🙏🏻❤️

      Sorry for your loss. You'll see after watching my vids and plenty of other ones that you'll be able to fix many common issues. Some might still require someone else to do it, but there's tons of info out there so you won't be taken advantages of. RUclips, Corvetteforum.com and internet in general has more info than you'll ever need. Good luck and have fun with it like he did 🙏

    Great video but I can save you some time....when I replaced my tail lamp bulbs to LED, while they are out of the car you can reach the back up, license plate and rear side marker lamps without having to remove them at all! I love the LED's on my C5!

      Just as good as the more expensive LEDs on other sites. They certainly make it stand out when you hit the unlock button from across a parking lot.

    Big difference. LED lights have changed the game. I did an entire LED swap on the ‘15 Explorer. It just needed it. Lol.

    • @YellowVette04

      Nathan Copeland LED has come a long way in the last few years. Gives each car a refreshed look, IMO.

      YellowVette04 sad thing is some expensive cars are still installing crap lights to meet budget. I actually thought about doing a LED swap on my riding lawn mower. Lol.

    • @YellowVette04
      @YellowVette04  6 лет назад +1

      Nathan Copeland the price keeps coming down as they advance, so no reason for all cars not to have them now. Can't cut the grass and put in nice stripes unless you can see lol.

    are you going to change out your tail light bulbs for leds if so will you do a video of it adding the load resistor

    • @YellowVette04
      @YellowVette04  6 лет назад

      I probably won't. I'd like to change the taillights to the radio flyer halo taillights. Anything is possible tho.

    • @YellowVette04

      Will definitely change the way the rear looks. There's some cool LED options for you C6 guys to replace the taillights and side markers.

  • @SimplyJustRandomness
    @SimplyJustRandomness 3 года назад +1

    Have you upgraded the tag light bulbs to white led also? If so which ones did you go with? I want to get rid of the dull yellows on mine there also.

    • @YellowVette04
      @YellowVette04  3 года назад

      I went with a pack of (10) 194 led bulbs. There's (4) interior bulbs, (2) tag bulbs, (2) in the front corner housings, (2) rear side markers and (1) glove box that all use the 194 bulb so you can choose where to put the other 8 if you want to get a pack of 10.

    • @YellowVette04
      @YellowVette04  3 года назад

      This video shows (4) interior bulbs and the link in the description is what I used all over the car. ruclips.net/video/jnqAysYSfiA/видео.html

  • @lelandbrucehall6572
    @lelandbrucehall6572 3 года назад +1

    Did you have any problems with other messages after replacing the bulbs? I've seen videos where people have to add a balancer after using LED's.

    • @YellowVette04
      @YellowVette04  3 года назад

      no issues with replacing reverse LEDs. If you change taillights or front directional lights to LED then you'll need a hyperflash harness to resolve any hyperflash issues.

    you said they are a 2057? the link you posted on here takes you to Amazon to a 1157?

    • @YellowVette04
      @YellowVette04  6 лет назад

      2057 is in the description of the bulb, it fits a bunch of sockets. The actual size is 2057 but I guess this particular bulb fits many different ones.

    • @ROADWARRIOR21
      @ROADWARRIOR21 6 лет назад

      My question is are they 2057's or 1157's I was about to order a set I click on the link you posted and it only show 1157 there's no 2057

    • @YellowVette04
      @YellowVette04  6 лет назад

      When I click on the link it says 1157 2057 2357 7528. They're 2057 bulbs.

      Wow, you are correct obviously.
      Yes I watched the video up to a certain point, but then skipped to the end to see what the end product looked like and I must have skipped over that part, lol.
      I so sorry, my apologies, must be getting old. I did think it odd no ta-da, here's the results obviously, guess i needed to scroll the video better of get some new lenses ; )
