Yeah it adds up what ever you buy make sure it's diffused with multiple SMDs so the pattern goes beyond a single point of light. I remember earlier examples that looked like a nipple for those that used the 89 and earlier lights. Also I suggest you by red and yellow LEDs match the colors

Darrell,

I suppose that's so the lamps don't "bleach" out the lens.

Xfire,
I bought the complete lamp, but he only had two. Wheni I got back to the states I bought two from one of the suppliers. I was also able to buy a complete set for my C6 while I was in Germany, including the marker lights that are not on EU cars.

Yup! Looks nice, especially on a purple-ish color car.

The tail lights, the interior (WOW!), the big brakes, the wheels, the 2-tone motor.... all very tasteful SO FAR. But! You might wanna stop before THIS happens! LOL!

Dammit Paul, you gave it away. That was going to be my next thread.
