Alright, here's where I'm lost:

I got the board built no problem. I don't understand why I need to run a signal wire from the front running light all the way to the rear. Why can't I just use the running signal from the REAR, where everything is?

because your running lights dont turn off when your signal is activated. The running lamp in the front signals turn off when the blinker on that side is engaged.

I built one of these, but ended up doing something totally different with my tail , so I'm selling it.

$20 shipped to the US. Guaranteed functional. PM me.

Ok so i need some help. I did the right side following hangfire's write up and it worked perfect. The i did the left side and now the left bright wont work. I swapped relays and that didnt fix it. I redid my green/yellow connections on the left side and that didnt fix it. I even tried putting the orange blinker wire on the 87 post and the Green/Yellow Bright wire on the 87a post but then the bright worked and the blinker wouldnt work. I swapped bulbs and that didnt fix it. Anyone have any ideas cause i am going nuts tryin to figure it out.. Thanks

It'd be way easier to just do a voltage check on the proper wires. Start from the bulb receptacle, and work your way backwards.
