GC,

Glad to help in any way I can... I have tested the front turn signal LEDs at both the parking light setting and with the headlights on at two different times yesterday, while driving around and parked. They work flawlessly. The only thing I notice, is that with only the parking light setting ON, the green turn signal arrows above the Speedo light up dimly (I didn't notice that before, maybe it did it before the LEDs). But when activating the turn signal, they light up brightly in the direction of turn. ... I'll keep testing them this week, and let you know if anything changes.

I can dropbox you a video of them working, if desired. I also took some pics of the DIY process and would be glad to post when you guys are ready.

When looking for bulbs for any of the exterior lights, I do notice a difference between the 90 and the 91-96 fixtures and some bulbs. Also, with the base model Vette going from the L98 to the LT-1 in '92, makes me wonder if there was a change in the electrical system in there somewhere. ??

Absolutely, appreciate Jeff and all those who take the time to dig deeper into all the things that make our machines run great!
