If the bulbs are the same it dosent matter

Choose the same position

Example. Lower bulb tail, upper brake/stop

Not very bright

The brake/stop in no brighter than the tail

If I remember correctly one is mounted upside down opposite from the other side.

I bought a set of trailer lights and removed the "innards" and fitted them into the stock housings. So I had running lights, brake lights and turn signals. the trailer light parts were quite a bit heavier than the stock replacements.

sorry no pics... I bought stock type lights and was not happy with the flimsey inside parts. the trailer lights are typical of those found in any auto parts store.
