Whose fault is it anyway?

[Alpine Warthog]

Before I lose my mind on a manufacturer..... please tell me if I screwed up or they did. I ordered LED turnsignals for the gladi. Making sure I ordered the version for overland/sahara/sport S. They arrived, im trying to install. Gutted the fenders and try to put the lights in and....

I think they sent me the ones for RUBIs.

I can't even grasp what I'm looking at.

They are fender chop brackets with LED turn signals. Chopped the fender and the brackets don't line up.

I think they have sent you the wrong part. On the front fenders here, the LED turn signals and running lights are level and straight; no curves. From your pics, it looks like they would fit here.

Yup it's the Rubicon bracket all right. I scoured the website looking for pics and yup, the non rubicon part is definitely different. AND, since I gutted my fenders and tossed the stuff I can't put it together again. So now I'm stuck driving around without a proper turn signal. Lets hope they fix this quick and overnight me the correct brackets.

That super sucks. Hope they send the right part very fast.

Not sure which brand, but it looks like you're attempting to install it backwards? All the ones I've seen have the bolt/bracket on the hood side and the amber section is the outboard edge. That looks upside down and backwards in your 1st pic.

I just looked back at the first pic and you might be right. Looks like if flipped and moved to passenger it might work.

You can see the manufacturer logo in the front view (American Adventure Lab) and the logo is right side up. The LED light is a sequential so it starts inboard and moves out. The pic caught the light just as it was starting to move to the outside. They open in an hour so hopefully, I'll have an email or phone call soon.

That makes sense. So you had them right. We didn’t notice that.

Well at least you still have the turn signal attached to your left shoulder

Murphy's Law - it's inevitable.
