Found my camaro has afterburner tail lights - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Been learning new stuff here and there on my new to me camaro and found my factory tail lights have non working afterburner LEDs and a super crappy DIY glue job.

I was debating tossing them for factory tails but I wanted to see what these look like turned on. When I look at the back of my tails where are these LEDs supposed to be wired into for proper operation?

Probably tackle this this weekend.

They were likely disconnected for a reason. The biggest being that the earlier version of these had random LED failure. My guess is the person that had these noticed a few missing LEDs and disconnected them. But only one way to find out. Not sure where they connect.

I'm guessing the same. I found the wiring which is pretty simple but I bet a few are burnt out.

I would also say they are burnt out. I have them on my car if you have any wiring questions.
