Agreed 100% on how much modern the rear end looks... especially at night!

You can just go for the center bolt and the light assembly just slides right out.

Two bolts to get the old one out, one bolt to transfer clip to new lights, one plug (make sure you push in the pin to make it easy to remove) and voila !!

They look excellent !!!

Yep - and I wondered exactly the same thing. I don't have an answer though.

The lights come with the resistors needed to prevent the error codes.

Just ordered a set from Frank at OT. 597.95US with today's exchange rate. Probably the best looking aftermarket lights I have seen. I hesitated yesterday on ordering and it probably cost me in getting them quickly as OT's stock is running low. However yesterday exchange rate was $607US so I saved $10 by waiting.
