Dan:

The parking lights are at the center top. It's the single led, next half ring of 5, and the 3rd ring of 9(total 15 led's)

The brake/turn is the rest of the board.

Because of how the neon is wired from the factory, you cant seperate all 3 because the brake and turn signal is the same circuit. People have converted their cars to the "euro" setup where the brake and turn are seperate, and usually then end up using their reverse light section as a turn signal, but other than that, this is how it is.

Also, a few corrections:

1. BTR misquoted the price he paid($55 shipped)
2. That price was limited time for the units I had in stock. A new price will be given for any future releases(as they'll also be plug n play capable with a 3157 bulb base)
3. While BTR's procedure was fairly straightforward, i recommend the following steps:

- Preheat oven to 210degrees
- Please tails on cookie sheet, with the metal bolts facing down and lens facing up...NO TOWELS...fire hazard even if only in there for a few minutes.
- Allow tail light to bake for 10 minutes. This is long enough to get the sealant good and soft, but not long enough to damage the plastic of the tail light.
- Bake ONE at a time.
- The use of a buffer knife is ok here, but there is a black tar that DCx used to seal the tails up, I recommend a flathead screwdriver.
- Once you've got the board in there and its ready to go, you can just press the lens back in place until its locking tabs have reseated.

Again, this is just what I recommend...it's not the definitive way of doing things.

Nah, I tried that route from them back when I did those LED tails for everyone

They wouldn't budge

Would be ideal though

Can't you use a empty bulb base socket and solder the wires from the board into it that way you can just plug it into the stock harness? Wouldn't this eliminate the need for a resistor?

the resistor he was talking about is those big heavy ones used to control fast flash, but like i said, thats already been covered, no need to wire in one of those things anymore...

as for the empty bulb base, thats basically what figure releases will have already on them.

the bulb base has nothing to do with resistors...

hey BTR, you want to make your tails just plug in like normal?

go buy a couple empty 3157 bulb bases from autolumination, cut off the round part(youll understand what i mean and insert the wires in this order:
RED | WHITE ...........BLACK | (empty)

i also recommend soldering the ends of the wire so that they become solid instead of being individual strands(makes the bulb base stay on)

here's a pic to show you what i mean...ZukesSRT4 now owns this set of tails...
