i cant find it on the site. The '07 has those little plug dowel plastic things that clip the housing in place on the inside of the lift gate.

whats up with the attachments on the LED housings? how do i make them work?

haha what?

you use a drill to open up the LEDs so you can use the plastic rivets.
i got ya... i figured i could just use a bolt to go into the little holders...

thanks fellas. "installed" it but wasnt able to fully get the 2nd piece totally in. Didnt want to get my drill n do it again in the middle of the night so ill get to it when i can. Its secure so no worries.

Question for the 07+ guys: When you signal i see only the top part blinks, but what about when you BRAKE? does the whole LED light up or just the top portion? I did it in middle of the night and couldnt get anyone to test it but i did rec a short clip which look like only the top lights up when brake.

thanks Paul! Dang, kinda wished the whole thing would light up if you brake. no point in the bottom half of the lights except filling in the space lol :(

wait a minute.

if you have 0506 LED tails

ON AN 05 06 it works JUST LIKE STOCK. the top half is blink the bottom is brake. the whole thing lights dim with park lights on.


same ones on an 07....... park lamps lighht up whole thing dim.....BRAKE OR BLINK LIGHT UP BOTH TOP AND BOTTOM.

so if that not happening just add the major wire to the bottom half too.
