Those look awesome SIXJAK!

I've been looking at those tail lights on Ebay myself.

On a side note, I'm planning on ordering my Hurst STS soon, but I will have my dealership install it.

There are 2 torx screws that hold them in under the rubber shift boot. I cut the boot a little to get a socket in there to undo them . I didnt replace them. You have to undo them of the stock shifter will not come down on the V6 . The directions are extremely vague on how to release the springs.

Is it still functional if you dont replace the springs??

The install took 45 mins. I jacked up one of my chrome bezels. It's always the guinea pig i.e the first one. I ordered the black bezels which I think will look way better anyway. Those should be here any day.

Yes,it works just fine.

what's the deal with the rattle problem Hurst was causing? I know plenty of folks in the past that was furious because of rattling issue.

Chevy originally offered these in new cars and I think those guys were expecting "factory" level sophistication. A performance shifter will not be silent at all times!

However, I didn't use any of the stick-on vibration dampers and my Hurst rarely hums and never rattles.

It also centers just fine and functions normally without the "centering" springs.

In exchange you get short, precise throws and alot more driving satisfaction...

Thank you . I got them off eBay. Just search 2010 Camaro sequential taillights. They are an easy DIY mod if you just take your time unclipping the OEM bezels and tailights. They are made in Taiwan and seem to be pretty decent quality. The smoked taillights work better with the flat black bezels, IMO. Those are sold separately. They do look good. My bro has them and I've driven behind him and I like how they look.

Dunno. One of the reasons I went with white ball. It's NEVER too hot.
