I did that before. It turned out that I put in the wrong size bulb, even though it still lit up Not all of those bulbs are the same in the taillight. They look the same but their the connections at the bottom are different.

is there anyway to bypass this because i looked at the lights and they look the exact same. i went to autozone and they looked it up and got it for me also. its really weird. how strict are the germans when it comes to the parts.

Signal lights and brake lights are perhaps the most vital means for a driver to exchange a few words what he or she is burden or strategies to do. Lacking brake lights, it is hard to directly tell if somebody is slowing down, and without signal lights drivers have no way of knowing if or when a car plans to change direction. Car lights or aftermarket tail lights are therefore an essential source for communication between drivers and, when used properly, can greatly reduce the risk of an accident.
