I wanted to have all 4  working. I worked over the wiring and installed two red 1156 Led bulbs in the inner lights.  Now I have 4 lights for braking and turn signals. I&#8217;ll replace the inner sockets with 1157 units later so that I also have 4 parking lights as well.  That will mean some rewiring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I also tried to tie in the backup lights so that I would have 4 brake lights shining  for reverse. No luck. I am getting back feed and all four lights flash with the turn signal.  Not a problem. I&#8217;m going to install two diodes on the backup light feeds so I will get 4 bright red lights for backing up.  Should be passable and I get to keep the original lens look \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Corvette actually has a working light under the rear bumper to show the spare tire at night.
