10440714 RH euro lens
10440713 LH euro lens

88988117 3 wire plug
88988109 2 wire plug

relays and diodes misc plugs and wire.....

you can also get the euro lens and trim the stock harness to plug into the red part of the euro lens (amber part is not connected)

i had to do that while i was trying to figure out how to make it work...

i have to re-draw what i did with the relays (cant find that paper work... )
basically using the center brake signal to run the red and the regular signal to run the ambers

here are some pictures....

What kind of relays and diodes are you using and where do you get them. If you can re-draw what you did with the relays and diodes, that would be a big help. Thanks.

this is what i had to do.....

relays are "bosch" type with no/nc contacts (spdt)

diodes are 6a rated

rectangles are the relay coils (i used 5 relays)

sorry it took so long... had to redraw it... and i just fixed a mistake...

I'm working on a diagram to show how 2LT hooked up his relays.

Were you able to purchase these pieces seperately, and if so, what are they called and where did you get them? :-)

Thanks so much, Steve

I used the Euro tail lamp harness, modified it for the second amber lamp instead of the rear fogs, and reprogrammed the BCM with a different program to run the lamps. The only issue is that you loose your tire monitor system, or if you don't have XM then you can keep everything working. Also with the non US Spec program you don't have daytime running lamps either which for me is A OK.

Steve,
Evidently 2LT made those pieces by removing the glass bulb from the plastic bulb socket and adding his own wires/connectors. The other brown and gray connectors are pricey...$44 and $36 each from GMPD!
