How to install your LED Tails.
We had a nice little thread on TF, and I figured I'd make a new one since the tails don't come with any instructions.
For this model, they have a clear version and a red version. Both come normal or smoked.
When you install your taillights, I would suggest numbering you light sockets and writing the corresponding # on the housing, just incase you need to install your old tail and to make things easier.
There are two metal clips that the screws catch on. These are located on your old taillights. You will pull these off, takes a little muscle and prying. But be careful, so you don’t break the plastic on your taillights.
When you hook up the harness' you want to follow the order above.
The Running lights/Brake light will be at the top.
The Blink will be in the middle.
The reverse light will be at the bottom and you will use the bulb for this.
If your lights aren't working check your fuses under the hood. I had a problem with my brake light switch, and it needed to be replaced.
(Don't remember his name off the top of my head, but on TF.com he had a little wiring diagram to have both the blinker and brake light to work in unison like the esky lights) Hopefully he'll join up and chime in.
Here's some pics of the non smoked version:
They can be purchased on ebay:

Feel free to add on other LED brands/models and if I forgot something add it.
