Fitting 04+ clears on my 03 3.0!
I'm not sure if anybody did this, but here is what I did to make it work:
I bought my clears on ebay and when I got them they turned out to be the clearer 04+ lenses...so i put them in anyways and plugged it in...but the middle brake/parkin light would not work (the bottom light and blinker worked fine). So i tried moving the bulb around but nothing worked..I pulled out the new clear and compared the wiring to my ambers and here is what i found: The connector used is a 6 pin connecter but only has 4 wires running to pins(female end): On the right side: 2,3,5,6 On the left side: 1,2,4,5 The actual 04+ clear taillights only had 4 prongs inside the connector (male end): On Right had prongs on: 2,3,4,5 On Left had prongs on : 2,3,4,5 So terminal 4 on the Right, and terminal 3 on the left were never connected to any power...Next I took the female part of the connector (attached to the car wires) removed the white clip/cover and exposed the wires/snap connector... On the right hand side I unsnapped the wire in position 6, and resnapped it into position 4 On the left hand side I unsnapped the wire in position 1, and resnapped it into position 3 Put the white snap in covers back on and now all the tailights and brake lights work just like they are suppossed too!! I am asuming that everybodies 03- wiring harness/connector looks like mine, and that all the 04+ clears have the same female connector as mine...either way it worked for me and it was completely freeeee....i was getting nervous that I would have to send back my clears!!
