When people do this mod, what is usually done: replace just the blinker/drl or along with that replace also the clear bulb behind the amber lens?
If one of the benefits pursued here is heat reduction in order to avoid damaging the housing, then it would make sense to replace both, right?
Is there a LED replacement for the white parking bulb?

Now add the the clear corners, clear marker lights, and the switchbacks and it's the real deal!

I get many compliments on them! Thanks Corvette Mods!

No, the switchbacks are installed in the clear part of your DRL assembly. Although, clear lenses really do look much better in general.

Sorry if this is a stupid set of questions

Do I need a pair for the car or a pair for each side?

Is the $49.99 price still good?

Do I need two resistors?

Where do the resistors go?
