If those are brand new LED's... Polarity, polarity, polarity... Try flipping the bulbs that aren't lighting up around...

there's no switch, it turns on when you open the trunk. if you mean the sensor, i believe it is the latch itself.

so i got the led flasher unit from superbrightleds, the pins are correct and fit, however the unit as a whole is slightly larger then the stock unit, as such, it won't push in all the way. how did you go about solving this issue if you had it as well? btw mine is a 98, not sure if there were any differences between the years.

I didn't want to deal with the hassle of shipping it back if it didn't fit so I just dealt with local guys, DDM Tuning and we got it right the first time. The part number of the digital/electronic flasher I got is CF13GL-02. My guess is they should be the same, because upon researching this I found out that the make of cars usually use the same parts, but I'm not sure.
