New tail lights don’t fit

[massivespl]

I bought some spec d tail lights off eBay. They fit the truck but where u twist the bulbs into the tail light housing doesn’t fit. The bulbs don’t go into the hole.. I could cut the holes out and glue the lights in place but who wants to do that to tail lights that should be plug n play.... anyone else deal with this problem?

Use a utility knife and cut the socket hole to match the light bulb socket.

I’m prly just going to return the tail lights. They should be plug n play and there not.... I don’t wanna have to cut them up and glue the bulbs in because when u twist them to lock them in they don’t lock. I bought spec d tail lights but the lights don’t say spec d on them they say junyan so I think eBay got me ripped off

Any thoughts on these? Howcome some led taillights come with little electrical boxes with them and these ones don’t?

So should I buy a set with them built it? Or is that set I posted for $102 decent?

use them, the bulb sockets being a little small is normal for repops, just use a box cutter and trim the holes just enough to fit your socket in, it's just plastic I've had to do it numerous times.

The spyders I bought were 179 or 225 not sure now but they were p&p with resistors and fit perfect.... nate, i cant tell you if the ones you picked are ok.... I didn’t see if it said resistors included but if you like ‘em get ‘em....
