What did you use to wire it? Splice and electrical tape or crimp connectors. Also where did you find a connector

Well darn. There's no good way to clean the contacts since the plastic blocks access. And I have no clue about the body harness but I'm inclined to believed the body harness works to an okay degree given the old lights worked fine. I'm going to pick up some corrosion X spray on Amazon because it...

Good and bad news. Good news is I absolutely love the red. It adds the contrast i need so atm I wouldn't even think of tinting it. The bad news. Found green corrosion inside the connector on the oem taillight+ green corssion inside the connector on the car. Tried a nylon brush and WD electric...

Unless you apply the tune after the forscan change then the tune will be overwritten by forscan. For tire size. Also yes it is always worth fixing if it's reading faster. Why you might ask? It may not seem like much but over time it reading faster is going to make your odometer go up quicker...

I'll check it today after work and report back, I completely forgot about it

Yeah prolly not. I did find out that by only tinting the bar straight on (the steep angle of the taillights bars that is only visible from the side glance) means that it doesent block light output at all. Does look weird to see black from one view and red parts from the side. Either way I'll...

Smoked like I have now is dark but visibility is the same as OEM since it's just a grey housing instead of red. But oem with heavy tint is still bright because for ever reason Ford decided to use LED taillights brighter than the sun. Stupid bright lights. To the point I went through an old photo...

I got them cleaned up real nice and boy they look a lot better cleaned up. Tossing them on tonight or TMR night to see what they look like for awhile until I feel like either swapping back or tinting them. Just one issue, both lights have spots like this (circled in blue). I'm not sure what it...

Smoked or or the tinted stock ones? I do love the smoke but I don't want to pay for clearcoat if they will have other issues. Also the red is kinda growing in me for contrast but idk. I'm going to install them for a bit and take photos of both and post them here. Gotta clean up the old lights a...

Only thing not blacked out are badges and rims. But I have to do something about the taillights. They are peeling and since they are cheap off cj pony I'm not sure if I want to pay to repaint them and then have them leak or fail or something. Hence why I'm revisiting my oem lights. The only...

Here are some current photos. I have more photos with better angles if you want but they aren't current mods aka old photos have the lighted rtr grille (just got rid of it last weekend) and a grey hood with a different style vent. The ones I linked here show the car as it sits and will probably...

Jack it up and try to wobble the wheel. If it moves at all then it's bad and needs replacing.

Years? Nah these lights didn't even make it 1.5 and that's only when I noticed it. Looking on forums it's more like replacing every year unless I get them repainted so they are more durable but the fitment is meh. Here are my oem though, chip one one and scratch on the other, worth replacing the...

Yeah the 3rd photo is renegade lights from CJ pony but they are absolute junk. Paints already peeking and fitment is horrible. Looks like the only halfway decent aftermarket is FORM lighting but form does not produce 15-17 taillights which sucks. Debating going red rn but my oem are in worse...

It's just a design defect. Oem fail insanely quick even new replacements. Also made in China is fine with. Timkin. They are still the best manufacturer of bearings of any kind. Bearings always go for timkin. Btw I have family who do large quantity production and have visiting factories in every...

The rear wheel bearings are a known failure. They all fail within 15-50k miles. And often then make 0 noise. Gotta get timkin bearings if you want them to last as OEM have a design defect hence the failure same with the radiator fan bearing. My wheels had over 1.5 inches of wobble when jacked up...

Red vs Tinted vs Smoked taillights on a black car. IMAGES HERE Looking for some insight on taillights. My renegade/winjet lights are peelingand possibly separating on the edges not sure how bad. I went back and found my oem lights (they have a weird film applied which is shown in the one...

The catch can was maybe like an 1/16- 3/32 if an inch full or so. Doesent account for the oil. Im going to take it into my normal mechanic shop because the car is riddled with issues. Ill add mystery dipstick consumption to the list alongside, window whistles and won't seal, door panel rattles...

Here we go, I got the oil before I left plus after I left and this car hasn't moved from where it's been parked and no massive puddles under it although it has been stupid frickin hot I got major sunpoisioning hot even with protection on. Oil level dropped again ont he dipstick BUT. The car has...

Ah ok, I thought it was the dipstick because of the yellow top. But yes that's what my tube looks like from what I can see, I'll snag photos of the pan, and tube later today. Plan to leave where I am kn a few hours so I'll check it all before leaving
