C5 Corvette Halo Tail Lights, Installation and Hyper-Flash Harness, 1997-2004
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Welcome to 4K Motoring!
Today we are installing the ever popular "Halo" LED tail lights on our 2001 Corvette. These lights were sourced with the "mod" completed allowing only the external ring to illuminate with the running lights while the entire light illuminates with the brakes. Included with this kit was the hyperflash harness, allowing the LED turn signals to function with the stock electronics. That kit ( www.ebay.com/itm/255384780302 ) was paired with the side marker "laser" LEDs ( amzn.to/385MUi0 ) give the old Corvette a more modern look. We install these lights and the hyperflash harness all in this one video!
At the time of filming, we are still waiting on our new center brake light ( amzn.to/3P4roL1 ) and LED license plate lights ( amzn.to/390KAZJ ). Stay tuned for the completed video coming out soon!

I bought the same set 😊 and all new led bulbs ❤ can’t wait to install them.
Very good video with fantastic explanation. I will be doing this soon on my C-5.

Nice...
Nice video
OG halo tails look good 👍. Have you seen the newer laser tails that match your rear side marker lights? I recently switched from halos to burgers and they're bright as hell If the burgers are not your cup of tea, they also recently came out with a laser version forthe 3rd brake light which also matches your laser side marker lights and that thing's sick ✌️

I've seen the burger lights and wasn't really a fan, but they still look awesome. If you see my follow up video, I added the laser 3rd brake light with F1 strobing feature, as well as LED license plate lights. It all comes together to really update the back of the car!
Your lights look amazing. I installed the same LED light on my C5. They worked perfectly when I first installed them. The brake portion on one of the lights doesn't work. I can't find a place that sells a single LED light. Either buy a set of 4 or buy a kit. Do you know how the Kit works?

Were you able to reach out to the place you got yours from?
Does anyone know of a c6 style factory light upgrade/conversion for the c5? that’s kinda what I’m visualizing for my c5 build

What can I do about just one of my LED lights doesn’t work when pressing the brake. What is a kit?

search Ebay to see if you can find a replacement. I would also recommend swapping two of your lights to ensure it's not just a bad connection
I can't find these on Ebay, they are same but different. The Ebay ones now don't have the same looking back

I got check gages indicator on dash with just doing the DRLs but no hyperflash. Not sure what the fix is.

They may need an inline resistor, have you tried checking codes?

I also installed the harness. Then I went back to the incandescent and check gages o dash was still on. My guess is the harness might not be right

I think the harness controls only the turn signals. There may be an issue with the DRL circuit. Pull the codes to see what's flagged

@@4KMotoring actually there would be no codes. But when you start the engine, guage check message goes out. All good. Thanks for your help.
are you serious with the added weight stuff?
I’m assuming this hyper flash harness works on a C6 too ?

There's a good chance, since the two share the majority of their architecture
They didn’t seem to hyper flash?

They didn't hyperflash with the 4-way flashers on but did with the turn signals
They look identical to the vettelights

The modern ones have a center bar that also illuminate with the running lights. Very similar, subtly different. Both are great options!
OG is better buts thats just me ..keeping it timeless as much possible

Modifying a car is definitely a fine line to walk between classic style and modern technology. That's why the C5 platform is perfect as there are a plethora of choices and styles? to choose from
