"A Few Extra Brake Lights - Can anyone spot them all?"
I see the 4 in the back, led bar across top halo, two in the side vents.

Great job overall!

Yep, thanks, and it's actually interesting how many people talk to me in traffic about how mice it is to be able to see my brake lights while driving on one of my rear quarters where they normally would not see my taillights.

Durango_boy very very nice mods on your 77! Cudo's! I keep up with your mods on another forum too and have tried to replicate a few of your mods on my 76. For those that don't know his work and his knowledge...he will be has to be a big asset here as well. I was trying to find information on installing some LED bulbs in my rear markers and it took me to the Corvette Forum and one of your inspiring threads. Great work!

Thanks so much, I'll just try to be a good forum member and help who I can.

Here's a 'sneak peak' of my marker lights as they will be when I'm finished. Basically I wanted 1157 bulbs in my markers so I could piggy back them off of the driving and signal lights so they do what the front and rear lights do. The housing was too small for a standard 1157 socket so I improvised. I ended up with a very visible LED 1157 solution. I have amber for the front two and red for the rear two.

I'll start a thread when I get them finished and installed. Very easy to see and very bright when they blink with the signals and hazards.
