Fender Tip LED Bulb Replacement
Bought the smoked lens and LED fender tip bulb. All good.
Got the amber lens cover off. All good.
Removed the old bulb. All good.
LED amber replacement doesn't easily insert into the bulb slot and it's not exactly heavy duty. I don't want to force it and snap it off.
Before I apply too much pressure--is there a proper side out with the LED or is it a universal fit? There are LED's on both sides.
The bulb has a "+" and a "-" but I don't see a corresponding symbol on the bulb slot.

I put the stock bulb in both directions and it fit either way. I'm guessing it doesn't matter or there would have been more specific instructions...

I'm going to give it another try later this afternoon. I thought I was just so pissed I couldn't see straight. I may pick up another LED at auto parts to see if it's any better.
