You may have to epoxy the new caps to keep them from flying off. I have also read that the wiring is different colored from factory and the brake / tail light wiring sometimes gets mixed up at the plug. So test them before putting the bumper back into place.
Thanks, you’re 100% right. The wire colors are nowhere near the originals. So far all I know is that the brake lights are functional. I still need to get my reverse switch in place to test. Hopefully I can track down all those caps that popped off or things are really going to get complicated. If things don’t work out maybe I’ll be trying to source out some LeMans lenses till I find some real GTO housings. As long as I can hit the road soon I’m happy… lol
