Thanks nick. Yeah I know it's a big bracket, but I can't think of anything else at this point since it's a new clutch pedal and bushing.

That would be awesome if possible. If that's not it, it's got to be my third brake light. You around tomorrow after 5ish?

in terms of the brake light issue.. i would start poking around in the tail light harness.. assuming that you rule out the tails, the bulbs. the sockets.

nick's lights are for a sedan.. so not sure if the plug is the same. the light is definitely not.

yeah i checked out the bulbs and sockets... they look good. What do you mean by brake light harness; the plug that goes into the tails?

yeh. it ends up at the tails but it does travel through the car.


i would use a multimeter to confirm 12v through all neccessary wires.

Yeah man, i'll be around...as Ben re-iterated, they're different lights. But i'm pretty sure the connectors are the same, so they should just plug in. They'll be sitting in the trunk, but they should plug in.

Cool. I know they're way different lights, but yeah I would think they would use identical connectors for manufacturing simplicity's sake. Thanks man
