[QUOTE="machoheadgames, post: 437629, member: 18789"] The LEDs are the issue, due to the way their circuitry works (or doesn’t work in this case). LEDs only let power flow through them in one direction in most cases. Some LEDs on the market are built in a way that power and ground can be hooked up to either side, but not most bulbs. The ones you got weren’t made that way. The side marker harness feeds the bulb power from both sides depending on headlights on or off. So you either need a non polar LED or you need to stick to stock incandescents. If you ever put LEDs in the front grille locations, it’s an even bigger ordeal where you have to rewire the side markers. [/QUOTE]
