How to "Flush Mount" your rear tail lights.CHEAPLY
I have seen kits you can buy to flush mount your c5 tail lights.They are quite costly.I went to the hardware store today and spent 15$ on 8 longer screws,weather stripping and small circle velcro pads and 1 foot of 1/4 inch fuel line.I took off the tail lights and the cleaned the area out.Put the weather stripping around the lights and then cutting the fuel line into 1 inch sections and putting the screws through them and putting the lights back into the car.It's that easy and the results are AWESOME.  Hope this helps anyone who ever wanted to do this.  The photos are in the photo gallery.Enjoy.

Thanks,I had to take the doors apart to get to the tail lights.
I had to take them apart to see why the leather is peeling off the door panel.

Wow, I thought that removing the door panels was only necessary when lowering the suspension.
Hmmm..

Taking off the doors is better for aerodynimics.I now the car is faster now that the doors are off and lower to the ground,plus with the rear lights flush,I can hit a top speed of 250 mph.No doors and ac on.
