No no, I didnt post this to ruin calvin's business!! I am just trying to get some help on putting them in properly. I know quite a few people have them on, but who knows if they are in perfect or not. I dont know if there is a trick, I guess I Will try putting them in from the corner and work the way in?

yellow_lancer sent me some pics of the lights. They look pretty decent, I didn't notice anything wrong with them once you put tape or glue on it I guess...

Hey yellow lancer, could you be more specific as to what the 3m sticky stuff is? Like the actual product name? Also is it permanent? I dont want to use epoxy or any of the other permanent crap that people are sugesting. In the event i need to change a bulb, i would be screwed.

Mine came out great without any tape or velcro. If you look closely at the tyc light and the stock lights you can see whats wrong. Look at the pole looking things on the stock light and the TYC lights. You see the difference?
