module ?
They said that it might ruin electrical harnesses and it expensive to repair
They made you scare to change anything
I really appreciate your explanation and I have know to put them on again because I was scared a little bit
I am waiting for a solution for the flickering on stratup

I attached pics of the drawings of the OEM carbon engine cover. Complete surprise.

Yes, this was definitely an issue. This is what I thought when he mentioned they’d been at the port for so long. My stuff comes in through California, and I’ve never had an issue.

Got em in. Still flickers despite changing feature 13 and other settings I think are related to the brake lights. Any ideas thatguyM4. They look beautiful though
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1eup...w?usp=drivesdk

I can tinker around more on Thursday if you can think of what we need to look at. Maybe pwm? I'm assuming that's pulse width modulation.

Oh, yours are already separated, because you have a convertible? The convertibles have the wiring to run the tails in the euro config.

Mine were separated because I initially had Jerry's replica CSL-style tails and used his coding guide to separate them. Without the coding from Jerry they would have worked just like yours. but yes the requesite wiring was already present (for some reason) since I have a G83. Hence the reason I really wanted the Euro tails (1 for the amber turn signals and Secondly for the slightly cleaner profile without the side LED

We need to crash Jerry’s place this week with LCi tails. I’m a little north of Sac, so, it would take me a minute to get down there, but I could make it this week.

Yeah I'm decidedly further away, some 2300 miles or so. But I like where your mind's at.
