Help me!!! I dont know how to rewire my tail lights
 
I sent my car to the shop to get the bodywork finished on my restoration project, and the didnt know how to rewire the lights. I dont even know which bulbs are the brake lights, the turn signals, or reverse, or daytime, and night lights. Please, if anyone could maybe take a picture of what wires go where on their working tail lights, that would be great!!!! Or if you can help me at all!

Thanks!!

Here's how I did the same thing you are going through. I got a copy of the electrical diagram from PP here. Then I made a drawing of the back of the light housing with all connections labeled. Then I removed each bulb. Then I used my handy multi meter and tested each bulb center and side (ground) and found which connectors matched. Then I had to clean crud and paint off the wires and resolder several spade lugs. And put small tape labels on each one as to what they went to. Then I put in the housing and attached the lugs to the spade. Dammed if they did not work!! Good luck.
