I assume they were working on the old lights right? Fuse check?

thanks for the help guys..for some reason after I replaced the bulbs on both they both started working. Not entirely sure how they both went out at once but that seems to be the case. Thanks so much for the help!

Glad they are working. Now, if you can figure out how to make the outside LED's light up as brake lights, let me know. I haven't had a chance to play with them yet.

my smoked set just arrived. THe build quality on these is really good. Definitely looks OEM. I'm impressed for the $150 price.
Question, the orange bulbs are old school Edison bulbs. Can these be swapped for orange LEDs?

Not plug and play, but it's not even slightly difficult to switch the polarity. I'm going to make my own

I just got these lights, and I am having the same issue as everyone, where the outer lights do not come on with brake. The person who solved it with the 50Watt resistor did not explain what they did to make it work.

The fog lights are not supposed to come on with the brake lights. Use them as designed and the problem goes away.

I have the smoked ones on my 2001 and love the looks. I’ve had them about a year. I also have the LED projector headlights and a smoke LED third brake light.
Here’s my problem. My wife was driving behind me the other night and she told me one of my brake lights has stopped working. That’s the inside (toward the license plate) LED bank, of the passenger side (right) assembly. I don’t really know where to begin troubleshooting.
