for those of you that have jdm led tail lights.

lol, I did the same thing. I found it alot easier by removing the plastic panels because you have WAY more space to work with.

I can't take pics untill Monday if can wait that long, but I don't know how to explain it any more clearer. put the blinker (amber/orange) bulb at the top and the reverse (white/clear) bulb at the bottom. easy as that.

Leave it backwards then. It wont hurt or cause any problems. The signals, reverse, and brake lights are still clearly visible.

ahh, ok I see. lol

The only drawback that I see from having them reversed is that people in your blind spot won't be able to see you signaling. very minor though, just look over your shoulders and you'll be ok.

sorry, I don't have a pic and won't be able to take one for you till Monday but I'm sure if you search the forum you'll be able to find at least one pic.
