To be perfectly clear...... I want the tail lights to sequence like the 2010. I DO NOT want to install the plastic housings, just the sequencing system.
I've found it's pretty damn hard to get a straight answer around this place.
It's just my preference, basically thinking that OEM is maybe a little better engineered than aftermarket items. If they are LED as mentioned in a post above, then it's probably out of the question. I was just poking around to see if we had any Ford insiders that were "in the know".Bullitt 736 said:The initial thread title was misleading. When I saw the title I thought the same thing. Yes those who erred should have probably read your thread a little more thoroughly. Maybe they deserve a little bit of a break.
Hope you can find something OEM that works. Any particular reason you only want OEM???

Yes, the initial title might have been misleading, but it was all explained in the narrative. It's not just my threads that my comments are targeted at, it seems to be a common problem, even when you see questions posted by newcomers. Jokes, personal opinions/preferences, & off-topic replies come first, serious answers to the posted question always come later it seems.
Your initial post was not at all clear. Between the vague post and the title of the thread, it is obvious how someone could misunderstand you. In fact, it should have been expected. You cannot expect people to be able to read your mind. Now that you have edited the post to indicate just the harness and not the housing it is clear what you meant.JrzyBullitt said:Ok.

It is crystal clear to you what you meant because you know. However, by saying sequential tail lights, it is not at all clear to someone else reading it that you mean just the harness or electronics. It is very easy for someone to think you were referring to the whole assembly, because you didn't specify otherwise. It would be like going to Autozone and asking for wheel bearings, most people would assume you need a wheel hub assembly. This is no different. The edited post is much more precise and understandable.JrzyBullitt said:Maybe the title was vague, but they have to be short and the post below it was crystal clear. It's a matter of people reading only the title or maybe the first line and then responding. No mind reading was necessary here. I said sequential tail lights initially.
