So evidentally I can't read an electrical diagram for s#%t. The diagram shows 5 terminals in a row. In the photo as you can see there is a front row of 3 and a back row of 2. Which go where?

I tried a couple different combinations, but then stopped incase I hook up something wrong and fry something.

Here are the photos. Image 1 is supposed to say driver-side.

Jorge - sens me an email that I can reply to your email & I'll send you the pix which I took before I disconnected mine. The wire coloring isn't real clear, as in your pix, but they're hi enough rez to zoom if you need to, but way too big to post here! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

Being an old fart afflicted with half-zymers (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) , an 8GB memory card to document everything seemed like cheap puck-up insurance! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

You're not going to fry anything. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)

I'll see if I can use the search to find your info. It's not something I store in the front of my brain. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Jorge - this link courtesy of Mc-google-Mark has a good pic with the wire colors near the bottom, plus Jeff Bowlsby's "taillight wiring diagram for dummies"! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

These will do as well or better than what I was going to email you, but feel free to contact me if you still need the pix.

Mc "google" mark thank you for the link! I had been searching 'brake light' with no hits. This is perfect.

Thanks again guys!
