The install is a fairly, wait make that incredibly easy job to do in about
8 minutes. Just go back to the hatch, peel away that cheapo carpet we have
covering everything, take a socket wrench and unscrew 3 or 4 bolts and then
disconnect the wires and pull the light from the outside, take the new
light, put it in the place. rescrew everything, plug the wires back in and
test everything. My friend and i did this on two cars in under ten minutes.
It was our first time too, incredibly easy.

        It is so easy. In the time I am taking to write this it could be done!
First pull back the trim panels in the rear hatch that cover the lights.
Squeeze the tabs that hold the harnesses to the lights to disconnect them from
the lights.. Use a 8mm or 5/16" socket to remove the three nuts and the light
just pops out. That's all there is to it! Good luck.
