Question So I changed out all my lights...

I changed out all my lights on the '99 for the 2000+ clear lenses. Everything went great until I started it and stepped on the break and my passenger side headlight went on.
Headlight goes on when break is stepped on.....what did I do??

I even took it out and installed it over and over. Still the same results.
Anyone, Bueller?

New headlights, side markers, or taillights? Check your bulbs if one or more are blown, then funny things happen. Usually a turn sugnal comes on to indicate a bad brake light, but maybe if a few are out then your headlight may turn on.

Talking Thank goodness!!

I was beginning to get worried!! You know your having a bad day when you turn your stereo on and the windshied wipers work. You turn on your heater and your air conditioning starts, Push in the Cigar lighter and the horn blows and finally when your good and pissed-off and you put the key in the ignition , step on the clutch to start and it back fires and the ejection seat works. Ah F@#K it I'm walking...
