Finally had a chance to remove one of my taillights. After tracing the wires, and the printed circuits, I in fact found the LED bulbs from Autolumination to be manufactured wrong. They were in fact dead shorted to ground. After re-bending one of the power contacts back across the bulb base....I had to angle it at 45 degrees for it to make contact to it's correct wire. The ground circuit in the bulb socket is "ganged" together, you can't just "re-wire" the socket as Autolumination claimed I should. Anyone want pics for proof to back up my words. I'll gladly provide. I'm about to order some additional LED's, my funds are going to Superbright LED's and Oznium (Oznium's service is awesome!).

Anyone ever change out burned out LED's on the bulbs that have the color anodized heatsinks?
