Hey guys, how did you do the writing from the outer tail light to the inner, I ran through and up into the boot hinge, but noticed the other day that the wire is getting caught in the spring which may cause a problem after a while of opening and closing?

Isn't much grief fitting them tbh and prefer doing it myself as enjoy it, just wondered how people wired it as the wire has to have slack to move with the boot hinge then naturally tends to move into the spring

Tape the cable around the arm as low as possible to the opposite side of the spring then leave plenty of slack so any movement with the boot lid doesn't put tension or stress on the wiring.

Installed these on my lci f32 last night. I can not for the life of me get the inner lights to be flush with the outers. All clips are engaged properly (I think) also, the startup sequence doesn't work on the outer lights.
Any advice? View post on imgur.com |

Had one of my inner lights stop working ended up buying a new set just to replace it. Strange that it’s only the reversing lights makes me think a possible wiring issues, but just guessing.

Example: https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/0aYAA...rj/s-l1600.jpg What about the individual lights on outers? - Break, turn, park? - Working correctly and only the start-up sequence does not work?

Well I would guess that the cheaper leds used have just given out. It’s not like you can even open them to check. Really weird that both have given up at the same time.
