Thanks! by the way is that left to right or right to left, looking staright at it? And, i noticed that my brake lights don't work. All of the lights work except for the brake lights. is there a switch somewhere or something else?

Left-to-right, looking straight at it. The brake light switch is located on the pedal cluster. Not too easy to get to, but not impossible once you remove the pedal board.

Very easy to check (basically you short the 2 leads together), but make sure the fuse isn't blown and that the correct single and dual filament tail light bulbs are installed. You'd be surprised how often the wrong type bulb is installed.
