    Thank you sir for the great video! I have been on the fence to do mine. Didn't want to pull the entire front bumper off like everyone says you must do, now after watching your awesome video I'll be doing mine soon with the new C8 carbide ones. Thanks again! Great video!!

    What’s wrong with the headlights on the C7? Those are LED right? I never heard anyone complain about them it’s the C6 headlights that suck and suck they do. This was what HID was 10 years ago although I must say the HID headlights on my 2006 Acura TL were flamethrowers! Great headlights on that car.

    Going to install mine today. Thanks for the video. If I was upper management at gm during the 05-13 years I would fire the guy who thought the stock headlights looked good. The body color in them is hideous, I have a spider in my passenger headlight who got a lot of free rides. Also they make it so difficult to pull them apart to refinish them.

    I like that you were able to do this without taking off the front bumper. Great job! I like even more that were able to do this single handed. Looks like a perfect fall/winter project while the car is stored until next spring. Did the beam pattern require aiming adjustments?

    Wasnt nearly as hard as expected, and I did do it alone, in the garage over winter. Taking the bumper off wouldn't have been much more work but it would have increased the chances of scratching something (doing it alone) Here's the adjustment video. Nothing fancy kzread.info/dash/bejne/c6R3tJJrd8mbYLg.html

    I did have led bulbs in the stock housing. The morimoto ones have a MUCH better cut off line, and are brighter too. However the stock lenses were in pretty rough shape so I'm sure a lot of the light wasn't making it through

    I had Chevy dealer replace lenses on my C6 Corvette and in less than one year the clear coat is already peeling off big time. They say it's still under warranty they say they're going to repaint the clear coat on them. I don't know if that's going to work. What a mess. What should I do?

    Damn! Sounds like they used cheap replacement lens. That sucks! If they're going to try and fix it for free I'd let them. They'll probably just sand the lenses down and respray which should work.. Assuming they sand all the old clear off and don't half ass it they should look as good as new
