    you see a grand am when you look at my car?

    yes, the PLACEMENT may be somewhat similar to 1g avenger, but then again, one can look at the 1g avenger as an evolution of the stealth (albeit a mostly poor evolution). the plan is to tint/polish the garnish & tails, which will render the reverse lights invisible unless lit.

    i don't think evan had too much difficulty with it. i believe he dremeled the garnish so that the donor light sockets would fit snugly, and then super-glued them into place.

    I was referring to the reverse lights in two locations, I never understood why GM didn't eliminate at least one pair of them.

    I don't think you could do it in the two stages. Most of that is actually in the bulb itself. Unless you ran a complete different power source and I'm not knowledgable enough to do that.
    You can wire it to come on with the brakes or the tails. I wanted it to show up ALL the time, that's why I went the route I did.

    You'd have to have a set of led's for running and another set for braking, two seperate circuits, same as a bulb, two filaments

    I didn't look to see if they had different intensities on the LEDs. I guess it'd be possible to do if they DO have them that way.
    Just have to wire in the second strand to the break light bulb wire.

    You can get 1w led's or use a shit ton of the regular ones

    Two stage is possible but you need a controller. The controller would control the voltage amount going to the leds. Lower voltage for running lights and higher for brake lights.
