Just make sure you find all of the screws and plug everything back in the way it was before and you will be alright Lights are easy mods, especially when you are just replacing the entire stock unit, just be cautious not to remove screws that are not necessary to take out because that creates the possibility of losing screws that did not even need to be removed in the first place

1..unscrew 2 screws from each light assembly under trunk lid.
2. pull gently yet forcefully, it is held in with some clips.
3. unplug all light bulbs
4. reverse directions to install new lights.

easier than cake

I thought that those ones on ebay required some fitment, which might cause you some problems, so don't just think it will be the easiest thing in the world if there isn't good documentation on whether or not they are direct replacements.
Not puttin everyone else down, but there have been threads about altezza on ebay I believe...just don't want to see you get screwed over.

I kinda like these, but...

1. The red plastic looks cheap (in the pic anyhow)
2. That little red reflector on the side irks me

If they look good on your ride, I might get em though.

I say save your money. Im tempted to get rid of my altezza lights for the evoviii and get the lights for the evovii. I think the solid non-altezza lights look tougher. Just preference, but think about all the cars out with altezzas now, and how many people are getting after-market altezzas.
