Received it yesterday UPS, but it's been too cold to install it. In the low 30s yesterday and currently 26. Supposed to get into the 40s today.

Might back it into the garage this afternoon (can't fully open liftgate when pulled in due to overhead garage door being in way) and turn the heat up to 60-70 and hope that rubber seal strip becomes more pliable.

Got it warmed up in the garage this afternoon and didn't realize that for install you only have to open the rear glass, not the liftgate.... Doh! Oh well.

OE came off no problem. New one went on no problem. It came with 3 new screws and washers but I used the OE flat torx screws. Only took about 15 mins, including cleaning the dirty glass thats underneath.

Fits well and is really bright especially when combined with the tall esky tails.

Did notice that the red light lense isn't perfect in the housing. The drivers side fits flush but passenger side hangs down a bit leaving a slight lip at the bottom in the corner and a bigger gap on the top.

Here's the pics....
