I bought a set of SS conduit for the rear tail lights. Now I need to know how to attach them to the tail lights. There are no apparent ends for attaching on them so what gives...

Conduit 1

Conduit 2

Conduit 3

your tail lights weren't created for conduits, you need some magic wink

Squirt the end of the conduit full of clear RTV just before you slip it all the way onto the rubber grommet at the back of the light, then tie a knot in the wires at the other end to hold the conduit tight against the back of the tail light. When the RTV hardens, you'll have a semi-permanent installation of the conduit over the wires. If you ever need to remove it, use a heat gun on the outside of the conduit to soften the RTV.
