I've got my car at Mobworks right now getting a kit installed and I was wondering if it's worth another long a$$ drive out there to let them install my '06 LED tail lights.
Or is it something I can do with a screwdriver?
Thanks!

1. open the trunk.
2. 3 tabs on top of the tail light, pop off w/screwdriver, take your time, it can be tricky.
3. use 10mm wrench on the 3 bolts on each tail lamp.
4. when pulling out old lamps...stand to the side of the rear wheel and
pull towards you FIRMLY. Hold on tightly because when it comes out.....it really pops up very hard & it might fall out of your hands. By doing this you won't break off the 2 pegs on the retainer clips.
5. un-clip the harness
6. there are 2 harness plugs. One is a light that is always running and the other changes brightness. The smalller harness (only for the always running light) is not used with the LED tail light. You only hook up one and just cover w/tape & clip the other onto something.
7. that's it!!
Good Luck!
