Sportzfan76 & I just completed the installation of Bruce's cables to our non-OEM LCI Tail Lights this weekend. Together we took photos and created this DIY. Thanks to Bruce for creating the cables, help & instructions. Installation is quite easy. Enjoy!

Any pictures of how it lights up now? I'm close to getting this setup myself and pics would help. Are your lights the Sonar Brand?

I have two sets of these cables for anyone who is interested. I had made them up because there was huge interest but then I guess the price was not attractive enough especially when the lights themselves were so cheap.

My price of £150 was pretty close to the cost I've incurred to produce these. But instead of just sitting on these items at home I'm accepting any reasonable offer on them. If anyone is interested, I can bundle these with a set of Brand New lights (which I bought just for testing my cables).
