FAO C4 Owners Who Have Passed SVA!!
Discussion
The US cars have flat beam headlamps and should pass without change. At best, you may have to adjust them so the hot spot of the beam falls into the corner of the lower left quadrant of an imaginary four box quad ahead of the car. 2 Z06's passed without adjustment. Black triangles are a fail.
Clear as mud.
On the C5, you buy a set of Euro lamps for the back but fitting them means you have to cut a wire on the brake pedal so the brake lights don't flash as ordinarily the brake lights flash on the respective side. It's a white wire.
I'm not sure how the C4 set-up works, whether it's a replacement set of rear lamps using the same installation procedure.There are specific Euro-lenses which you can get on the later facelift C5's which had half-orange rear lenses instead of the all-red afterburner lights of US models. You may end up chopping the wiring so the outer lenses are orange indicators and the inners are red - as on the earlier C4 conversions I've seen but I don't know if that kit comes with the details of the wiring mods. South Edmonton Corvettes used to sell the kits if they're still in business. You could try ringing Claremont Corvette. I always found Tom Falconer to be exceptionally helpful and not in any rush to fleece you of your money, preferring to encourage Corvette ownership.
