Default Tail Light problem (with aftermarket LED tails on 01-03)

I Just installed my LED tail light for my 01 LS430 and on the Outer Driver tail light on the bottom row the light only lights up when i press on the brake. Then i tried turning it 180 degrees where you are supposed to connect the wires and then the light works but whenever i press on the brake it just turns off while the other side brightens. I don't know what the problem is any help is appreciated

I wanted the LED tail light, but so far the feedbacks are very very disappointing. The manufacturer need to step up their quality big time. I'm just gonna get the regular ones... But good luck with your tail light, hope you can get it to work properly.

check the light bulbs (tight fit, secure, etc.). try the lights out before you reinstall the LED ones completely. one side at a time. R-n-R 101

I got a different kind of problem.

I'm looking for the tail light cover of a 2006 LS430.

The one behind the driver side, it cracked.

Any ideas where I could get them ?

Thanks.

You might check out ebay. A lot of people sell OEM products and sometimes sell lights individually.
