Short answer: YES!

Our 1966 Corvette has been in the family since the 80s and for as long as I can remember, my father disliked the headlights. They light output and the hideaway motors not working optimally always seemed to come up in conversation. So what did that lead to? Never driving it after dark. Well this all changed this summer.

Our friends over at VetteLights sent over some Holley Retrobright sealed bulbs for the old ‘66 and boy was I excited. I really have never worked on this car or a car this old before, so I was nervous and excited all at the same time. With this type of setup, they are plug and play, but you have to think a bit. I used an old wiring diagram to figure out which color wires were high vs. low and got to work installing these things.

If I could explain to you how amazingly bright and white these were compared to the old Halogens and T9s, imagine an old flashlight with a dull bulb and dying batteries compared to a new LED flashlight that is fully charged and ready to use. I’m going to stop writing and just tell you to watch the video. I go through how to install and also show you some before/after views at night. If you are on the fence, just do it so you can fully enjoy your old
