Did you buy the right taillights? Before it was cause there was only 1 set of lights they sold and our 07/08 tail lights have 2 bulbs and the pre ones have 3 bulbs so the wiring wasnt exactly plug and play for the 07/08.. but I just looked now and they fixed the problem and made 2 diff types of tailights, a set for the 02-06 and a set for the 07-08.. which ones did you buy? they both look the same but the wiring is different

Hmm my keyboard doesnt have that bloody little space on the caps lock, thats why I always hit the damn thing.. POS

You guys bought the right ones then, if you look on the site the first ones that come up for our trucks have a note saying if you have 06-08 then get this part number ....... and that part number when searched goes to the exact same lights but for our trucks..

I would return them and get the ones that are "plug and play" for your specific truck. Maybe get them from somewhere else?! That sucks that you paid for over night shipping though.

Ya I looked at 3 different sites and they all say i need a different wiring for the recon light to work and i did get the 07 08 ones and have a 07. I called recon and they said that the lights are plug and play and would only need more wiring if i had brought the 02 06 to fit on 07-08 so I dont know. I will have to see tomrrow when I get them. Any more help or pics people have let me know. Thanks
