How do i install the led circuit board into my 3rd light? i got it from hidwerks.com but there website is down, please help asap! is there a thread on here on how to?

Thanks

 

There are two threads here on that.

 

i cant find them, can you please? thanks

 

I'm looking....

I asked the same question. He usually links them in his Group buy threads.

 

did you install them>

 

Yes, but I'm not good at How To. I took the 3rd brake light out of the trunk. Unsnapped the bulb bar, then took the lens off. Then I laid the circuit board in and looked at where it sits in the reflector. It only hits in 2 small places to I flattened those 4 spots to make them give better surface area. I laid some hot glue on the 4 spots and placed the circuit board in place. Then I hot glued the edges of the circuit board to make sure it was not going to move. I fed the wires out the back then reassembled the lens on the housing. Put the while thing back into the car and pushed the two wires into the plug and taped them securely.

Oh, after I secured the housing into the trunk I used some DAP black rubberized marine caulking to seal it.

Not much of a writeup.

and a few more.

 

i used zip ties and hot glue just to be safe.

 

I got it on woo hoo

 

I wonder if it looks better than my impala led retro fit lol

 

Mine stopped working today. I have to look at it this afternoon.

 

Bad luck lol

 

Isnt this supposed to be a plug and play item?

 

Yeah plug it in and play around with it for 30 min lol just gotta hot glue it to the reflector and plug the two wire in, it's easy

 

Ain't nothing plug and play about it.

I think the resistor in mine is shot or something. It's giving me a MIL.

 

Hey Matt, I was gonna jump in here and help you but it looks like you got it all figured out lol. I have an LED third brake light board that I took out of an Impala. I used double-sided tape to keep it in. Has been perfect for over a year.
