    k.. went out and did the mod..

    driver`s side worked out perfect but i stripped one of the wires in frustration and now i have no right turn signal lol...

    on top of that, when the lights are not turned on and i get on my brakes, one side only comes on with the circle part whereas the other side comes on with both the circle and the one other brake light...wtf

    this has got to be the biggest fail for this mod lol

    time to go back to allpro lol

    how do you strip a wire unplugging it?! its just unplugging (twisting the bulbs out or unclipping them from the back of the bulbs). there is no splicing or cutting?!!??!?!?!

    Do you not know how to use a multi-meter and see what wire is doing what and make it work?

    When I did mine, I had to extend two of the wires because they were stretched too far and not lighting the bulbs. Very crappy pic I know. [​IMG]
