I have been searching for quite a while but 59 pages is a lot. Can some one please help me on how to wire the 180sx kouki tail lights, or if you have a site with instructions.

aren't they plug and play?

No.

Should be really simple to figure out. Look at old harnesses... see where wires go. Look at new kouki harnesses.

Splice accordingly.

I don't know. Just look at where they go to on the actual bulbs. Then cross reference.

^did that with mine, but only 1 reverse works, both have fresh bulbs.

The plugs match up exactly the same, they're just a different size, just go from pin to pin from old plug to new. Takes less than 5 minutes.

Find out what the problem is, does the ground wire on the non working bulb see ground? Does the power wire not get power when the light should be on? If the groundwire dont see ground then ground it. If it does not get power steal the power from the working side.
