Anyone use DEPO Taillights?

Have the smoked DEPO LED taillghts. I did a bit of re-wiring so the inboard and outboard LEDs function as brake lights. No issues with fitment or function.

How did you wire it? I would like to do the same thing. Thanks.

I did it last summer, but recall it involved cutting the + and - wires from the parking light, splicing-in extensions to each of those wires, and then splicing into the + and - from the brake lights. There is not much room to work with inside each light fixture. Hope this helps.

That sounds simple enough, thanks!

So I tapped into the brake leads and then tapped into the outside LED/parking LED. It works, but not all the time. Sometimes, the first press of the brakes results in only the original brake LED's coming on. The second press results in both the inside and outside LED' illuminating. Does yours do this?
