C7 Corvette RGB Side Markers: Lighting Options and Matching Aero

The C7 Corvette has four long, curved side markers, two up front and two at the rear, and they’re one of the easiest ways to change how the car looks from the side. Factory markers are bright amber and red lenses that stand out against most paint colors. Smoked LED markers blend into the body when they’re off, and RGB or Flow Series markers let you pick the color or run chase effects for meets and shows.

This guide walks through every C7 side marker we carry, from a plain smoked LED set up to Bluetooth-controlled Flow Series markers. Then it covers the lighting and aero parts that pair well with them. Every price, build time, and fitment note below comes from the live product pages on October 8, 2026. Prices and stock change, so check the product page before you order.

Smoked LED side markers: the clean starting point

Next-Gen Speed smoked LED side markers for the 2014-2019 C7 Corvette with amber front and red rear LEDs lit

If you like the factory light colors but not the bright orange and red lenses, this is the simplest fix. The Smoked LED Side Markers keep amber up front and red at the rear, but the smoked housing goes dark when the lights are off.

  • What’s in the box: 2 amber LED front side markers and 2 red LED rear side markers.
  • Install: the listing says plug-n-play with direct bolt-on OE fitment.
  • Listing notes: the page says the set is S.A.E. and D.O.T. approved, and it comes with a 6-month warranty.
  • Price checked 10/8/26: $124.99 (marked down from $150.00).

Pick this if you want a stealthier C7 that still looks like it left the factory that way.

Smoked RGB LED side markers: color control with a remote

The Smoked RGB LED Side Markers are the most affordable way to get color on all four corners. With the lights off they look like a smoked set. Turn them on and you can pick a solid color or run fade, flash, and strobe modes from the included wireless remote.

  • What’s in the box: 4 RGB LED side markers (front and rear), 1 wireless remote, and plug-and-play wiring.
  • Fitment as listed: all 2014–2019 C7 Corvette models, including Stingray, Grand Sport, Z06, and ZR1. The page lists OEM part numbers 22771196, 22771197, 23210929, and 23210930 as the parts it replaces.
  • Electrical notes: the listing calls them CANBUS safe, with no hyper-flash or error codes.
  • Warranty: 6 months.
  • Price checked 10/8/26: $145.00 (marked down from $250.00).

Pick this if you want RGB for shows and meets without paying for app control or a build wait.

Smoked RGB/Flow Series side markers: chasing effects from your phone

Smoked RGB Flow Series LED side markers for the C7 Corvette shown off and lit with multi-color flow chasing LEDs

“Flow” means the LEDs inside the marker can each show a different color at the same time, so the light can chase, sweep, and run multi-color patterns instead of glowing one color at a time. The Smoked RGB/Flow Series Side Markers are the most custom side marker we carry for the C7.

  • What’s in the box: all 4 markers, 2 front and 2 rear, with a smoked/clear style lens.
  • Control: Bluetooth app control, with thousands of colors and effects according to the listing.
  • Fitment as listed: any 2014–2019 C7 Corvette, including Stingray, Grand Sport, Z06, and ZR1.
  • Build time: the page lists a 7–12 day build time. Shipping notes say to allow up to 8–15 days for the order to arrive.
  • Install: the page says easy plug-and-play, but it also says professional installation is recommended.
  • Warranty: 6 months.
  • Price checked 10/8/26: $300.00 (marked down from $400.00).

Pick this if you want the side markers to move with the rest of an RGB Flow build.

RGB vs Flow Series: what’s the difference?

Both sets replace all four markers and use smoked lenses. The difference is how the light behaves and how you control it.

  • RGB shows one color across the whole marker at a time. You switch colors and modes with a wireless remote.
  • Flow Series can show several colors in one marker and animate them, like a chase or a rainbow sweep. You control it from a phone app over Bluetooth.

Morimoto front side markers: fronts only

The Morimoto Smoked LED Front Side Markers are a single pair for the front of the car. They’re a good fit if you’ve already upgraded headlights, fogs, or tails and want the front markers to match.

  • What’s in the box: 2 XB LED side markers (one pair) and a plug-and-play harness.
  • Build notes as listed: Osram LEDs behind an optical lens, with a UV-coated polycarbonate lens.
  • Electrical notes: the listing says no error codes, flickering, hyper-flashing, or radio interference.
  • Fitment as listed: 2014–2019 Chevrolet Corvette C7.
  • Price checked 10/8/26: $103.99 (marked down from $125.00).

This is not a four-piece set. If you want the rear markers smoked too, look at one of the four-piece sets above.

Matching lighting for the rest of the car

Side markers look best when the rest of the lighting matches. These C7 parts pair naturally with a smoked or RGB marker set.

Matching aero: spoilers and diffusers

Smoked markers make the car look darker and more aggressive, and a lot of owners pair them with aero in black or carbon. Here’s what we carry for the C7.

  • ZR1 Carbon Fiber Rear Wing Spoiler: sold as the upper spoiler, the base spoiler, or both, for $799.99 (was $899.99). Check the year fitment on the product page before ordering.

Do they cause hyperflash or error codes?

The Smoked RGB set is listed as CANBUS safe with no hyper-flash or error codes. The Morimoto front markers are listed with no error codes, flickering, hyper-flashing, or radio interference. If you have a question about a specific set, call us before you order.

Should I get the Morimoto fronts or a full four-piece RGB set?

Get the Morimoto pair if you only want to change the front markers. If you want all four corners to match, or you want color control, go with one of the four-piece sets. The Smoked RGB set was $145.00 on October 8, 2026, and the Morimoto pair was $103.99.

Can I color-match the side markers to underglow or interior RGB?

You can pick colors to match. The RGB set uses its own remote, and the Flow Series parts use Bluetooth app control. If you want everything to run from one controller, call us before ordering and we’ll help you plan it. We also carry RGB/Flow underglow kits and interior ambient lighting.

What aero pairs well with smoked C7 markers?

Black and carbon aero matches the smoked look. Popular picks are the Stage 2 Rear Spoiler, the ZR1 ZTK high wing, and a rear diffuser add-on in gloss black, matte black, or carbon.

Are colored side markers street-legal?

Lighting laws vary by state, and many restrict which colors a vehicle can show while it’s driving. Check your local rules before running RGB colors on the road. The plain Smoked LED set keeps amber front and red rear light, and its listing says it’s S.A.E. and D.O.T. approved.
