Thanks Bleen. I couldn't have done this without your well documented instructions.

I agree. Thanks Bleen. The roadster was a bit different in taking out the back panels but managed to get it done!

Sure, crop the picture so we can't see the mattress by the curb across the street. LOL

Looks like you might still need adjusting. On Vantage both lights should be almost flush with the boot lid..meaning, if you put your hand on the section of the boot lid between the lights, you should be able to slide your hand onto the lights without much of a grade level change.

I'm reviewing this thread while considering replacing one tail light that likes to let water in. Hadn't seen this comment til today. And you know, happy as I am to have moved back to CA from a stint in Orlando, I really didn't miss the garbage strewn streets and highways of Southern California. To remind myself that it's a fair trade off, I drive on winding mountain roads every weekend. Then I can ignore the lumber and appliances that fill the shoulder of the highway on my drive home.

Upgrade looks great guys. Just wondering, anyone who has upgraded to the clears - are you willing to sell your stock LH red tails?
