Taillights

Hey guys

I bought a set of tail lights online last week and when i got them the passenger light only had 3 bulb sockets. The driver side had 4 bulb sockets.

Has anyone seen a set of lights like this before?
What do i need to do with the stock harness to get this to work?
They are just like the ones at this link.

The driver side light housing that i have only has 4 bulb openings,
7443 bulb which the bulb socket is to small
7440 bulb which fits ok
1156A bulb which fits ok
194 rear side marker which fits ok.

The passenger tail light housing only has 3 bulb openings
7443 bulb which again the bulb socket is to small
1156A which fits ok
7440 which fits ok.

So how do i mod the stock wire harness to make these lights work?
What size stop light bulb (7443) socket do i use?

thanks

My Sport 20 Lights have 4 bulbs, but the short harness that came with them plugs directly into the OEM plug on the ADM car..

Works perfect.

perhaps you are missing some wiring.

The only thing about these i never got a wiring harness with them. I found a guy on the U.S board who made his own harness and got them to work but he never pm'd me back yet. By the way i was on your blog the other day and u got one sick pro. U got alot of knowledge about cars.
