Got burned on some tails for my vantage, help?

Hey guys,

So I had the condensation issue with the tails in my V8V so I went ahead and bought another (red) set (not from a user.) Got them in the mail today and ONLY the turn signals work, no brake lights or running lights. Unless anyone has any suggestions it looks like I will be needing to buy ANOTHER set, that being said does anyone have their red ones laying around from swapping to clears?

Thanks a lot guys!

I don't know a thing about Aston Martins, but if the taillights are LEDs and have individual circuits or plugs for each light in the housing, like the Porsche 997 ones, LEDs only work with proper polarity, unlike regular incandescent bulbs. Maybe try reversing the connector if that's even possible.

Just a thought.
