    FYI with the tail lights. If you leave the two smaller wires unplug it will give the sequential lighting. The light will blink in a circular motion. Looks cool😊

    Love your videos! I recently purchased a 2013 Grand Sport and last week I upgraded the interior, fog, and reverse lights to LED. The vanity bulbs were the most difficult to remove. I found some good information on the Corvette Forum on how to change them. Morimotos are on my wish list.

    Top Flight is the best. I did the same upgrade that you did. To me if you're going to be lit, you might as well be well lit! 😁 I also upgraded every single interior light with LED's. If you go the same route, don't forget the glove box light and the vanity mirror lights in the sun visor. 😊 Well done my friend 👍👍and always stay lit. 😁

    wrap a small zip tie around the base of the bulb and with the tail of the zip tie you pull it out. So it would be like lasso around the base of the bulb.

    Another good way to get the bulbs out from under the rear view mirror is take some duct tape and make a tiny circle with it. Put it around the bulb and have a little extra duct tape to pull on and it pulls out.
