side marker lights...wiring help

[mopardude318]

Okay, I just got a wonderful set of 68 side marker lights for my cuda, from another member!


(These pics are from BEA Parts) But my question is why doesn't the rear assemblies come with pigtails and light sockets? My cuda doesn't have them, the wiring is trashed...And if you were to look on BEA's site, the rears don't come with them...So what do I use, if I have nothing to work from?

The "pigtails and sockets" for the rear are part of the wiring harness and are not sealed like the fronts. They just use a snap in socket. You should be able to take the rear light to a store like NAPA and find an appropriate snap in socket and then wire into your harness.

Yep, the rear fixtures are inside the trunk so they aren't quite the same.
