‘57 R60 Wiring has me Stumped

[ferrarirobinson]

Follow-up:

The LED TAIL LIGHT from Benchmark Works was defective. In fact the whole batch they had were defective. Should not have been up to me to tell them. Each of the two functions worked independently but not together.

For safety reasons I still wanted a bright tail and brake light.

So, being the Electrical Genius that I an not, I used a hardwire 1 7/8” 2 function Red Hardwire Cluster from Custom Dynamics. A little creative mounting was called for. I have used lots of their hardwire clusters for years. Lifetime Warranty too.(Hard site to navigate as they have so many different products).
Also used 2 $10 6v to 12v converters. There was probably a way to use only 1 converter but what I know about electricity will shock you. Now the brightness of both functions are great.

Too bad there was so much wasted time on my part, but the outcome is great.
In fact, the LEDs are so bright, my next 2 safety additions will be 6v rear turn signals and front visibility (Yellow) LED lights.

Thanks to all for your responses.
