ahhh those LED tail lights are meant for older civics with "twist" style bulbs. You'll either have to hardwire them or get different ones

I hardwired the LED tail lights but now when i have the running lights on and hit the brakes the LED's do not get any brighter...they seem like they are always lit up as if i am hitting my breaks.
