I got the main part of the tails in, it looks great! However, I've run into a problem with the smaller trunk tail peices. It looks like it's on there with a torx screw and of course I don't have any torx bits for any of my screwdrivers. I'll have to go to a store in a bit to pick one up. I won't be getting any pictures today because it's already getting dark.

Hey bud- just double check and make sure you're going after the right screw for those inner lenses. I remember thinking I needed to go after some torx screws in there only to find out they were for the trunk frame and had nothing to do with the lense. You'll know if they're the wrong ones cause they'll be tourqed on there tight.

They are very tight, I tried a square style bit and it turned, but very minimally and it took a lot of force. I can only see that 1 screw, too. Do you remember specifically where the screws are for them?

Trying to visualize it. Those might be the ones that have a kind of plastic sheath that the screw channels through. It'll look like those spare ones that I shipped with the lights. Kind of like a long white square plastic piece. Hard to remember though. Long time ago. Sorry.

Got em done! You were right, no torx screw. I took the new ones out there and put them up next to the old ones to see where the screw holes would be lining up. It turns out you have to click a little snapper on the black casing on the back of them to pop it off to see the 10mm nut, just a single one. After I found that it was a breeze to remove and reinsert. They look awesome! Pictures tomorrow. And my ecs order just arrived, yay!
