Add taillight bulbs or use Plug and Play?
Recently purchased a 2006 Honda CRV to use as a toad. I am thinking about the possibility of adding taillight bulbs, or, using Plug and Play modules. Has anyone else done either of these on a 2006 C...

Hi, everyone. I am back. I am a bit disappointed because I called Hopkins this afternoon and the person told me they don't have a plug and play that will fit a 2006 CRV. Gottem for '07 - '14, but not '06 and under. Bummer. They said I could splice the harness into the existing lights but not sure I can do that. May try to get the harness and run it in the car and then take it to a professional to splice. Just don't know at this point.
LewTeam,
Splicing into the factory wiring is not very hard at all. As stated before, I've done it countless times with absolutely ZERO negative effects. But, much of this type of thing all depends on ones skill and experience level. I've been doing this type stuff for decades and decades. It's all old hat to me. But, if you're not sure if you want to tackle this sort of thing, well, I'd bet dollars to donuts that you could find a friend who's got the talent/skills/experience that would help you out in this situation.
Even doing it the harder way, which I did forever by utilizing Radio Shack diodes for $3.50 a pack for 4 of them, (only used two per car) it would take me from start to finish, completed wiring and plug up front for towing, about 1/2 to 3/4 of a day. They ALWAYS worked perfectly, for a measly amount.
