I’m searching for a set of the newer style tail light lens. The ones with the amber color turn signals. Let me know what you all have

(Do they require any extra wiring to be done? I thought I read somewhere that they need an extra wire ran from them in order for the turn signal to work, or something like that)

Hello J,
Your statement is kind of confusing, when you say "lens", do you mean just the lens, or the complete tail light assembly ?
You can see my thread where I installed all 4 new "EURO" style tail light with the amber turn signals which were plug and play in my 05 A8L W12, no extra wiring needed.

If you get the ones with amber signals, no extra wiring is required, they are the euro style ones. The US spec lights do require an extra wire to be run from the trunk lid lights to the controller next to the battery, it's a pretty easy job.

Pricy things aren’t they lol. My inner light is really dim, and my dash has a warning that say brake light, and everything in the back works, so I have no idea why it keeps popping up.

Weird thing is it’s not all the time either. Maybe 3/4 times I start the car, the warning comes up, but when I check everything works. Just the right inner is pretty dim

My car does the same thing, they are the newer LED style but that one you described on my car has a crack and will sometimes fog up on damp/wet days. Probably starting to corrode inside and trigger the warning here and there.
