installs on these will be easy. I personally didn't install mine but after looking at it and how it was installed explained to me.. it shouldn't take more than 15 mins max. they are easier than the 5th gen that for sure lol
also yeah I also I got reverse lights and license plate lights installed! you I will not be disappointed I promise!

Alright cool I'm going to take care of the lighting situation all at once. smoked led everywhere!

I'll get a better pic tomorrow not in the parking structure, but so far they look sweet. The only thing, the plug didn't feel like it fit in super tight. Did anyone else have that issue?

Yeah, my connector didn't seem to fit super snug or there wasn't any clip or snap to confirm the solid connection.

Yes...a few of us felt the same way. The connections were very wiggly. I'm actually thinking about re-doing mine and adding some type of rubber glue, maybe use a glue gun.

Good feedback guys, thank you. We will add some solder to the connector to made it a tad bigger/wider to fit more snugly. However, please know that with the way the connector is pointed straight out, it is physically impossible for the connector to fall out because there's not enough room to do so once you lock the connector back into the sidemarker. Thanks!

I'm not worried in the least, fit snugly enough.
