It's the easiest install i've ever done.
Removal
Use a flathead to pop the 3 bolt caps on the top of the taillight.
Unscrew the (3) 10mm bolts.
Pop the taillight off (pull toward the side of the car not toward the rear).
Unclip the two harnesses.

Installation.
Only one harness plugs in. That's all that's needed.
Pop the new taillight in.
Screw in the (3) 10mm bolts.
Pop the caps back on.

Cake.

i installed mine this weekend using this post - thanks!

i did, however, have some problems removing the old lights. i couldn't remove the lights without breaking the peg that is closest to the front of the car. both right and left sides i had to break the peg.

$300 with shipping? Did you get some sweet *** deal or something, because they list the sale price on their site at $399 plus shipping. Even at performance it's $350 plus shipping.
