How many of the rear red sections are lit up when the lights or on (not braking)? All four or just two? LCI cars use all four rear sections as low-intensity tail lights, the lower two red sections as high-intensity brake lights (normal braking) and all four red sections as high-intensity brake lights (rapid brake application/ABS activated etc.) I wonder if this force-dependent braking feature works with these? Hard to check/test! ![]() The best feature of these aftermarket tails is they do away with the poor steel/zinc lamp circuit connections! ![]()

I just double-checked and all four red lights on the outer sections come on with running lights on. I know the regular brake lights work, but haven't had an opportunity to verify that the high-intensity ones do. I expect they will since I'm using the same bulb type as before and the wiring is the same.
I used LEDs for the indicator and reversing lights. They're super-bright and more than make up for the moderately smoked out lenses. Mine is a 10/03 build LCI. I can't say for sure that these lights will work for subsequent revisions. The best feature for me is that they make the rear of the car look much more modern ![]() |
