Just done an lci rear conversion

The outside bulb in the cluster on both sides was illuminated super bright and couldn't see the brake lights.....so I took them out. What are these bulbs for? Because i have tail lights (led) and now the brake lights are working.

I have not changed any of the terminal connections on the outer light wiring terminal block, I just plugged them in as they are. I changed the terminal block on the inners (boot) as according to the images ive seen and the inners are working fine with no problems.

Any solutions? Any ideas? Anyone had this problem before?

Pretty sure you need to rewire the taillights/use the adapter.

When you brake, do the running lights act as brake lights?

I took the outside bulbs out of the clusters now i have brake lights that turn on and off as they are meant to . I have no bulbs in my outside position of the clusters now. Have no idea what them bulbs are meant to be?
