I don't remember reading anything about getting codes but I do remember people complaining about the rear fog lights ( or whatever the little lights at the top of the taillights are called ) staying on or the brake lights not being bright as they should

I know I did the Euro spec taillights with the yellow l.e.d. blinkers and had Russell recode the SAM and my lights work perfect and are really bright

Bumping an old-ish thread. Looking to put the new tails on an 08. "whipple" says hes not doing it anymore.

Dealerships don't know what I'm talking about. Can anyone code my SAM?
