So I installed my LEDs tonight. After blowing a couple of fuses I got them installed. Now I have no brake lights. All the other functions work( turn, reverse, and third light) except the brake lights. I'm at a lost! Any ideas?

There is a difference because our barndoor tahoes have a hinge for the door that gets in the way behind the taillight

Have you checked to see if silverado/sierra tails would fit? Just an idea because I have never really checked on that.

There are barn door led taillights available, they are identifiable by the bottom of the light being a reflector which allow for the hinge to work. Do a search for led taillights and you will find them because I saw them the other week on this forum.

Yes they look like this

Notice how the reflectors stick out from the light, this allows for the door hinge.
