My problem is with the wiring. I feel confident installing the lights, but I'm not sure how to run it to power. I bought a fuse tap off Amazon and am researching how to run the wire from the trunk to the front of the car. Next week is my final week of class so I should be able to get to it soon. I'll update you when I'm done.
FYI I didn't buy the rear LED light bar accessory (yet). I'm working on an interior LED project first. I didn't want to buy the aftermarket pieces that include either black or light bamboo wood because that doesn't match my new 2022 walnut open pore look pieces. So I'm trying something myself. I am still experimenting so I may not have a "build thread". This is just FYI and a tease I suppose.
Basically I'm changing my dim, nearly-invisible stock "ambient" lighting with brighter colored lighting, more like BMW. I would ideally have ambient lighting as nicely integrated as a Mercedes with as many options but then I'd have to buy a Mercedes and I don't want to do that LOL
OK, Just ordered mine, it came out to roughly $410 with shipping. Hope to get it soon so i can give the install a try and hopefully provide more help on this thread

if you get it installed and like it I very well might buy one too, I’ve just been waiting for someone to get it installed and make sure it works before I go to the trouble.
I fixed it. Just needed to splice into the yellow turn signal wire.
I also didn't need to run the red power wire. The LED worked just fine without it.
Here's an updated video
I'm pretty impressed with the fit & finish.
The alignment of the pieces are slightly off but not enough to bother me.
There are also no gaps between the light and the body.
I might connect the red wire eventually. I think this powers the animation when I turn the car off.
It's almost 110 degrees in TX right now. It was tough finishing this yesterday while trying not to drip too much sweat and fighting off the mosquitos.
