Just got those eBay tails for my is yesturday and wondered if anyone knew how long it takes to get these puppies in? Reason why I ask is my buddy is letting me use his shop to install(tools and such) and needs to know how long I'll be since they gotta book clients around me.

 

I just recently installed only the inner tail lights (the ones on the trunk) and it probably took a half hour, but I could re-do it in 5 minutes. Can't speak to the outers but I think they're the same process, very straightforward.

 

It'll probably take a person who never done it, about an hour to two. If the harness isn't plug and play, then I got no idea how long it'll take then. I can probably do it in half an hour now but the first time, it took an hour or more. Why do you need a shop though? All you need is the factory toolbox wrenches, a ratchet, extension, and a 8,10, or 12mm socket. Hardest part is reaching a bolt or two for the outer tails that a ratchet cannot fit to.

 

30min......

 

30-45 min doing it slowly and correctly with no problems.

 

30 minutes for a first timer, but give yourself an hour to be safe.

 

as others stated give yourself a hour just incase you get stuck but its pretty straight forward i think its 3 bolts and a few clips..

 

Definitely shouldn't need more than an hour. Even if its your first time.

 

Thx guys, I took some pix with the headlights resting on my trunk parallel to the oem, it should look nice, I'll post pix in about 5-6hrs when I get home from my clinic

 

Srry for the poor quality, forgot to set HDR on my iphone

 

Did my swap to 2009 tail lights and I must tell you it will only take you an hour tops.

 

funny enough...my car is completely dirty...yet in those pix it doesn't seem so...

 

Just finished the job, it's beautiful but the harnesses were tough to get in and stay put, the manufacture of this product didn't do so well on this one and customer service was not very good engrish, but I'm still satisfied

 

not feeling them. Stocks > those.



by far.

 

To each his own
