LOL!
I was trying to call both of you guys this weekend.
Mark, don't worry. I'll figure out how to nail that sucker.
As you mentioned half the job is done. In my mind even mor then that.
Finding the problem is the difficult part, solving it, will require a little bit of innovation.
I'm always up for a challenge.
Tony. Now I understand what you are talking about. Your tail lights are not DEPO.
it's another brand (better build in my opinion)
with the DEPO, you have to use the OEM plate.
So I have two options:
1. Just like Tony side. Cut the conducting lines, solder wires to them, and revers the polarity on each bulb.
2. find a way to mount the bulbs on the taillight assembly using bulb sockets with wires, and plug it the OEM socket. (in revers polarity)
Just like the LED brake lights connects to the OEM plate.
In fact, I already have it in mind. Not only that, I think I will be able to fit 3 bulbs to the running light position. Just need to confirm it will not be too bright.
It will be funny if because this issue it will come out nicer then I expected.
