Gen6

Check the bulbs and wiring/connectors all the way back to the instrument panel.

Your tail lights are different than the 07-09, your trunk pieces do not light up, they only light up when in reverse.

Probably. It would require making a whole a rewiring into the trunk. Not to mention, weird looking as the brake light on the body is at the bottom and on the trunk is at the top.

If you didnt want your taillights like that, maybe you should of looked into getting a used Gen 6 (2007-2009)

Too much work, even the gen 6's trunk lights do not light up when braking.

He said brake and signal. That's impossible.

Not impossible, just takes a bit of work with rewiring it with relay switches and whatnot. If I'm honest, LED's + halogen as brakes might look a bit off to me, but to each their own right?
