hmm all you need to do is remove the old ones and put in the new ones. on mine it's pretty straight forward: for the part on the trunk i got 3 screws, and for the part in the qurter pannels i got 4 screws hidden behind the trunk lining.

Could you be a little bit more specific? I can see a couple of screws and nuts under the lights. Am I going to have to pull up the trunk lining or what? Im so confused!

Honestly, just start unscrewing things that look like they would hold lights on, and eventually they'll come off. Its really not hard and I'm sure you could figure it out with no problems. If they still won't come off, I'll find a diagram or something to help out.

There are a couple of plugs that are on my stock tail lights that I guess turn the lights on/off. But they have nowhere to be plugged into on altezza tail lights. Where the hell am I supposed to plug them into? 94_AcCoRd_EX, could u help me out? Thanks a bunch!!

You should plug the stock lights directly into the altezzas. Are you saying that there are too many stock bulbs?

Yah I think there are 3 stock plugs that are connected to the bulbs. On the altezza lights, there arent any plugs to put them the stocks into. Its just open holes to stick the stock bulbs into. I don't know if I got the wrong lights, or I'm just stupid!!

I don't know if I'm understanding you. Leave the stock bulbs in the stock harnesses. You then put that whole assembly in the new tails. Maybe someone else understands a little better?
