i put in altezzia tail lights for my 02' celica. and many may not care but when i put it in ive noteced that when you push the brake and turn on your signal. it still blinks but you also see the brake light on at the same time. any one know how to fix?

umm... if your pushing the brakes down then the brake light should be on whether the turn signal is or not. Why would you want the brake lights go off when the turn signal is on
and the brakes are being pressed? that doesn't make sense.

well it looks like this. the brake light and signal light are both in the same place.

the way it works is your blinker and brake/running light are in the same red circle area. your brake/running light is the same bulb i.e the light stays on then gets brighter when you press the brakes. the only way to get what you are after if i read it right is to get a pair of tyc tails. they have 3 seperate areas for the bulbs. 1 for blinker 1 for reverse and 1 for your brake/running light. i add a pic of my retrofitted tyc's to give you the idea

does it occur in both taillights?
Is something occurring in one talkilight and not the other?
Otherwise if that is not the case they are working fine.

I hate people like you. I was at a 4 way stop tonight and I was going straight and the person in front, coming towards me appeared to be doing the same. We waited the the other vehicle from my left to go and then we started to go.
The person I'm assuming is going to drive right by me turns their signal on at the last second and almost hits me. I hate people that don't know how to use their signals and that don't know how to drive.
