Smarting off to Kev is not the wisest. Should have stated it in the main post. *a

How do you know the bulbs are fine? Put a voltage across them and see if they light up.

Did you really check the wiring? Continuity test? Or did you just look at it and say "yeeupp.. thats some good wiring."

It means, get clear taillights.

You didn't say that you have.
Drop your attitude, it's unneccesary.
