    I was just searching through all the c5 modified posts an hour ago looking for this. This is super neat. I'd love to try and 3d print something to help with the install.

    I love the look of this and I’m thinking of doing this for daily driver z06 but I’m curious how the functionality is at night. Does it blind everyone like only LED bulbs do or is it better?

    So if you leave it in that position, how does it not open and close when you turn on the light switch from the inside? Is there a harness for the headlight motor that you just leave unplugged? Or how does that work?

    Are you for real, do you expect a true corvette owner to do this to their car. From the looks of this, you have no way of knowing which way the lights are aimed, and to not have the pop up function is crazy. What are you doing for high beams, this would never pass in the states that required vehicle inspections. If you can't afford the real thing, leave it alone.
