tC: WTB Drivers side TYC Tail Any condition.
I know you're looking for one to open up and 'experiment' on, and that's the only thing this one would be good for.
FYI - in case anyone other than the OP was thinking of getting one that looks like that one on craigslist to try to fix, that you may see somewhere else - don't bother.
The craigslist ad says:
The main problem with this light is that the bottom row of the Leds are burnt out and need to be replaced and can be fixed by companies that specialize in leds.
Wrong. They're burnt out, because the light was full of water - classic fail mode on TYCs. The bottom row of LEDs and the reverse light have a brownish residue from the water, it's easy to see all across the bottom of the light in the pics. The PCB will be corroded / rusted at each solder joint, that's why the LEDs don't work. Even if you could bake it to get it open, it's more than likely trash on the inside.
I know, because I already offered the OP a piece of crap passenger side I have that he could experiment on, same condition.

Which is why I said:

I had already PM'd with the OP before that, knew what he was looking for.
