on this post this has the attached write up from oracle. basically either splice or solder black to black and on my 2012 camaro SS the driver side tail light has yellow, brown and black. brown is the park [normal lights] and the yellow is turn signal, hazards and the brake light aswell. on the passenger side same set up expect instead of yellow the wire was green. On the actuall light bulb cut the inner metal tab on the back side of the light bulb to disable the park light function. so if your driving at night only the ring will light up untill you apply the breaks then the light bulb will come on bright. thats how i did mine. hopes this help i just did mine yesterday

I have it rigged up so my afterburners are my tail lights and the bulbs only come on for braking and turn signals. They are so bright that it was difficult to see the difference when I used the turn signals. Legally I am not sure as I am not in the US. and I'm pretty sure what I'm running is not legal here. If you are installing them yourself, be really careful when you separate the lens from the housing. It took me long time and I ended up cracking one lens because I got inpatient.

Cool sounds good , thanks ! Did you go with the 2.0 burners ? And did you get plasma or led ? Can't make up my mind !
