Default Free leds in Denver

I've done quite a few led mods for my c5 buddies and would like to do some projects on c6's. Many of these mods will adapt right into the c6's I believe. So heres the deal. I'll supply the leds and the labor to tastefully light up someones c6. I need installation pictures to show other people how to do it also. I'll even buy some beer if you get thirsty watchingHeres a couple pics of some c5's to show whats possible. Some of the pics are a little overexposed but led are difficult to get good pictures of.







here a c6

If it's free it's for me . I might be interested in doing the interior in white if that's available, not interested in the fender lights though . LMK.

Can you make LED taillights? I've got a Crystal Red vert if you want to do some experiments.

Some of these mods will work in any corvette. Do the c3's have courtesy lights in the footwells? Obviously you have fender coves so some of the same mods can be adapted to c3's. Pm me.

I have a lemans blue c6 coming over on friday to try a few things. I ran into an issue with the 1watt floodlights I use in the footwells interfering with the key fob function on the c6's so I'm trying something different. Stay tuned. I'm keeping everybody in mind untill I get things worked out. Stay tuned! I will have pictures on saturday I hope!

Default c6 footwell leds

I had Michael's (astronomer) lemans blue vette over to try some footwell leds. Turned out very nice I think, and so did he! Here's some shots of different colors we tried. He settled on the blue of course!



The red and white are using some sample strips I have that are very bright. I hope to have some more soon.

You'll notice what a wide pattern they put out compared to the 194 style led bulbs many people put in their factor light housing. These kick their a$$..

They work great! I even got an "Ooooo" from someone walking by at a 7-11 last night when I opened the doors.

Thanks again for the work and it was great meeting you.

Michael

Default c6 leds

I had Amanda Rae bring her lemans blue c6 over to try out a couple mods that I've done on the c5's. First we installed a red fender cove kit. I say we because her thinner arms were a great help! We painted the cove shields torch red to offset the blue. It made a huge difference in the brightness of the leds.

This is the panel we removed and painted. Notice the front of the shield is held on by adhesive patches.



Next we moved on to the footwell lighting. I installed some led strips with factory style connectors that plug directly int0 the factory housing.

Then I remembered having some 194 led bulbs that would work in the rearview mirror. These really made the interior complete and red!!




Now I need someone with a c6 with an exhaust plate not an exhaust filler panel that they would like lit up. My labor is free, any takers??
