Thanks. And thanks for the great deal on the tail lights. I ended up taking apart that crazy wiring harness and attaching some 3157 sockets from a salvage yard cavalier to make it work.

And thanks to the radio flyer for hooking me up with my fog lights and giving me tips to wire up my corner lights

They really suit your car. I finally got mine wired in yesterday. I do like the look but maybe I'll tint them as they are really bright on the brakes.
