we need a video on the new gen 2 c6 tail lights. specifically the dark smoke version!
This is a great upgrade
I love mine. I replaced them because of road rash damage.
These look pretty freaking cool.. Would you say these c8 style lights are brighter than the c7 style ones from morimoto or about the same?
from in shop testing the c8-style was about 5% brighter than the c7-style but both are SUBSTANTIALLY better performing than the stock setup so truly you can't go wrong with either style - just a preference in styling!
@@vettelights4284 hey awesome thanks for the response I appreciate you!
Wish they had round projectors. Square looks rice. I'll keep my LED bulbs in my stock projectors. Plenty bright.
Wow so nice, how much? Will they fit my 05?
Looks great but thats alot of work to do
Agreed. I really want these but I am not paying someone to install. I don't like taking off pieces of my car like that. But I might.
Just got mine today from you guys. Man im nervous removing the bumper haha. What happens if i dont use the drl harness?
Personally, I'd go ahead and route the harness so it's there if you want to use it in the future. Without the harness hooked up, there would be no automatic daytime running light (though this could be manually turned on by engaging the parking lights) and the startup animation would not run at car start but rather when the parking lights first turn on. It's not by any means a terrible install, but there is no shortage of screws on that bumper, that's for sure!
@@vettelights4284 is there a shot of the daytimes in action you could share the timestamp w/ me
Wait you showed the gray plug for the wiring harness running from the fuse box but what about the yellow plugs that weren’t connected to anything?
There are no yellow plugs on these headlights. That would be used to determine sequential or standard turn signal pattern on the C7-style lights (seen here www.vette-lights.com/collections/2005-2013-c6-corvette/products/2005-2013-c6-corvette-morimoto-xb-led-headlights).
@@vettelights4284 I wish I could show you a picture, I’m installing mine while we speak and the extra harness has a gray plug that connects to the headlights and a yellow one that connects to nothing. When you were crossing your harness over the front of the car you can see the yellow connector not connect to anything
@@vettelights4284 unless you’re saying it’s a reused harness for the c7 and c8 lights?

@@vettelights4284 I found the QR code and found out what they’re used for. Thanks for helping
I just purchased these for my 08 and are currently being installed by my service shop. At any times will I have to treat the lenses with a UV coating in order to avoid the very reason why they are replacing the originals?
No additional coatings are mandatory by any means but I always suggest adding clear protective film. www.vette-lights.com/collections/2005-2013-c6-corvette/products/2005-2013-c6-corvette-lamin-x-headlight-clear-protective-film
@@vettelights4284 Thanks for the response. Will this film detract from the crystal clarity of the headlights themselves? Putting a ‘screen protector’ on an iPhone or an iPad looks like there’s a screen protector on them. I would like to avoid that on these new headlights.
@@BlaqViper The PPF does not have any color or "blur" to it, just helps protect the lenses from rock chips, road debris, UV fade, etc. I Actually have most all of my front end wrapped in PPF!
Would these work for a 2009 corvette 1lt
they would indeed fit!
I can do an video for Vette lights
Is there any care needed to keep them from hazing over like the stock headlight?
Adding a clear protective film is always a good idea to protect form rock chips/road debris/and add an extra layer of UV protection but it is not by any means a necessity. If desired, we do offer precut film kits from Lamin-X (www.vette-lights.com/collections/2005-2013-c6-corvette/products/2005-2013-c6-corvette-lamin-x-headlight-clear-protective-film?_pos=1&_sid=68c064e47&_ss=r).
