[DML] Re: Help--Lost all Brakelights! Fixed, sort of

["lakelanier20" <derek4567@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Patrick,
    I have two of those JC Whitney "wing-eye" third brake lights 
sitting on my desk, waiting to be installed in my car when I get it 
in the next couple weeks.  They are this model:

160587/mediaCode-ZX/appId-386080

Did you get the same ones?

I have looked them over of course, and noticed that the "wire 
distribution diargram" on the back of the package is a joke and next 
to useless as instructions.  You say they only work when wired one 
way?  Because it's hard to tell which wire is + and which is -, since 
one is black, and the other is black with grey dashes.  I don't think 
they are a bad looking unit, but have you determined what caused the 
smoking when you installed them on your car?  Was it the JC Whitney 
lights themselves that caused the problem?

Thanks,
-Derek
