96-98 taillight mod...?

[94Pro-5.0]

i have seen some people with the 96-98 taillights do a mod that makes the inner vertical part of the lense light up with the other 2 vertical sections when the brake is applied. how is this done?

no. when you press the brake only 2 of the 3 vertical sections light up, but i have heard of a mod you can do to light up all three sections when you apply the brake.

I did it a while ago. I'll find the web site and put it here.
It took longer to empty the trunk than to do the mod!

buy two sockets and make sure the filaments are in line before you close it all up.

I just went to the junk yard and got the extra wires from a taurus.

That would look much cleaner! Its kinda stupid that only two light up anyways..

yeah it always pissed me off they did that, they finally got it right with the 2010 stangs.

Yeah, I saw a 2010 Grabber Blue V6 pull in today at a restaurant and the rear actually looked really nice, the way it lit up and stuff.

i didnt know how to search for it. i had a hard enough time wording what i was trying to ask haha

its not hard... there's two circuits in the tail lights, one for the brakes, one for the turn signals, being why there are two filaments in the bulbs. just find the circuit that is for the brake lights, and run a jumper from the switched leg on the middle bulb to the inner-most bulb. piece-of-cake.
