Default 08 si sedan brake lights inop

Just swapped the tail lights for 09 tinted ones and now all the brake lights except the center spoiler don't work. Any ideas???

Do you get voltage to the bulbs? - verified by a multimeter?

Have you checked fuses?

You are going to need to give more information

Check the bulbs and like the op said check for power at the sockets, I would start at any connections you had apart.

I feel dumb but it was the bulbs. It was weird they would go on then off so I just replaced the bulbs and it's fine. And just to help out anyone else, the 09-11 tails have a different socket set up for the bulbs than the 07-08 si sedan. Just another small issue I found that was throwing me off.
