remove the one that connects to the brake/tail... remove the bulb, then put that hanging plug into the brake/tail socket.
I just tried this option, it didn't work. All it did was keep my brake light's on. It's still the same though, you can't see sh*t during the daytime. Any other experiments I can try to mess around with to see wtf the problem is?

the dangling plugs from the taillight are for the LEDs..... those plugs are supposed to replace the bulbs from the car's stock harness.

i don't know the type if taillights you bought without actually seeing them in person and testing each plugs.

from your picture.... the upper hanging plug with 3 wires is supposed to replace the brake/tail bulb --> yellow socket... while the 2 wire one replaces the turn signal bulb --> white socket.


LEDs are polarized.. so you may need the flip the plug 180 degrees to get it working.
