well lol i plan to actually do away with the reverse lights completely. i thought about just buying some rectangle piaa's and smoke them and try to place them about in the same area as the g5's but im not sure how that would look. so i think im just going to do without them first and see how that goes. has anyone else done this ?

I have thought about this in the past. Best thing to do is to locate some autozone lights behind the rear vents on the stock body kit. Rather easy and will work fine if you want to do whats in the pictar
Not having reverse Light is Illegal just about anywhere on earth
Thats what I am going to do for when i eventually do this...

hahaha i know. im good friends with the lieutenant in town ... but i dont think any cop would ever pay attention to something like that. but who knows my luck i would get pulled over the same day it gets finished. i was backing out of my parking spot today and i rolled forward a bit and there was a metal rod coming up from the median and it hit my lip and tore it all to hell ! i was the guy who had the lt front bumper on my cobalt ss/sc and i just bought the lip and ss/sc bumper from gm and had it painted TUESDAY ! a total of $1200 ! and today, 2 days later my lip is already messed up. i might post pics so everyone can cry or laugh. depending on who you are ....

Yep. They're plugged with the rubber things that hold the mat onto the trunk lid. I just sanded a couple of them down, painted them 95U silver, and stuck them in there. They're held in with wing nuts.

i kinda want to do g5 tail lights and paint them so all you see is the circle.but keep my reverse lights and shave the rest of the trunk..they look smoother than the cobalt and i think they would blend better yet still be able to look good w the inner lights..and my inside lights are running and brake lights as well...i think your idea would look good tho, with a smooth bumper and trunk tho, not like the g5 reverse lights which clutter the bumper a bit...just my.02
