The smoke tail lights

I went with the Halo Runners... I think they look the best! Super bright, but not obnoxiously bright...lol. I've had them on my '01 C5 for the past three years and they keep getting better and better looking with age... There's something about the way they look at night that gives you a modern look with a nostalgic feel, if you know what I mean... Thoroughly enjoyed this upload! Thumbs up from me as usual... Stay safe... Rico ('01 Millennium Yellow C5)

Hello, Rubber City Motoring, I also live in Akron, and I went with the smoked lens. I also went with the smoked in the front. Thank you for the video.

Very cool! I’ll keep my eyes open for you. Thanks for watching!

Went for the smoke..looks great.

Thanks for this video. I have a 96 C4 and vette lights recently released the laser style tails for us and I wanted to see how they performed before pulling the trigger on ordering them for my car.

U can add little ohm transistor things to dim those lights. I added 3 and they're much better now.

Can you elaborate?

Thanks for posting this video!! I’ve been wanting LED’s in the rear, but didn’t see any videos comparing the different styles on a C5. I like Vette Lights, bought quite a few LED’s from them

Smoke all the way

Off the black looks great. Lights on is the same. Thx for making this video.

Awesome! That’ll look perfect

No doubt the most detailed and comprehensive explanation of these lights. Im liking the Halo runners but not doing any exterior lighting upgrades yet, maybe a few years from now. I’ll most likely upgrade the interior lights to LED’s where possible. I know myself and if I change one thing the list will grow!! Subscribed last night. Stephen D. From Staten Island NY

Your review was so good, I bought a full set! Went with Smoked from corners and red laser rear and sides. I will install soon. Question - do you need to install the hyper flash harness? I didn’t see that in your video. Thanks.

I had a hyper flash already installed by previous owner. Both light sets though have you covered. One came with a harness, the other has it built in with resistors.

I believe diagnostics when they test it/program it from the build. It was not used during the install.

Can the center laser be turned off?
