wth i had to hound the dealership for 3 months to get them to put them in because they mysteriously never called me when the tails got off "national backorder"

 

Kinda feel like I just caught 2 sentences of a long conversation.

Enlighten us a bit more?

 

sorry lol i bought tyc tails with my car 7 months ago along wit ped. spoiler. had my ped spoiler installed less than a month later but no tails cuz they were on "national backorder". i was like okay fine...months go by...i keep calling...nobody calls me back or has any answers. i finally go in for my second oil change and i'm like look it's been 7 months i'm about to get really ticked off people and miraculously my tails are here *sigh*

don't mind me just ranting lol

 

hahah well at least you got them in now. be happy.

 

yeah though i dont think i really want them now lol i like the look of the newer tails that have come out but i can't put them in myself and i am not paying extra money to have the dealership put them in lol

 

Why can't you do them yourself. Pretty easy! Do you just need instructions?

 

i have never done anything on my car. no putting oil in checkin the oil nada. most i've done is unscrew the stupid dealership license plate frame they gave me and put a scionlife one on lol i do't want to mess anything up and have to pay to have someone else fix it and there's no one in my house who has enough car knowledge to help me out

 

Hmmm I see. Well....if you lived in our neck of the woods I would help. Surely someone on here lives buy you that can help. Anyone?????

On a side note. Honsetly I think this would be a good thing for you to do if you wanted to learn. Just be patient and take your time and you will have a feeling of confidence that you didn't have before. Don't go working on the engine or suspension, but tailights....AHHH You can do it! YOU JUST GOTTA BELEIVE!!!!!

 

Wait a second....are they already in??? I thought you were saying you still need to put them in?

 

You should have bought them on Sparks and driven a few miles west to my house.

 

Are you talking about the Anzo tails or the new one on RS3? The new one from RS3 is bascically the TYC.

Just buy a new set of taillights that you like. I'm sure there's a lot of guys on SL (including me if you live in OC, CA ;) ) who will be more than happy to install the taillights for you

 

naw i'm talkin bout the old tycs and i don't know anyone in jerz who lives that close that wants to install anything for me. what's a girl to do *cries*

 

sometimes i think those dealership monkeys do no better work than your average joe on the street, and they charge up the a$$ for labor.

 

I agree. Any idiot can pull off a bumper with instructions.

 

exactly, all they do is follow directions and pictures, which anyone with 2 hands can do. they know nothing more than anyone else about your car.

 

Maybe she doesn't have the tools to take off the bumper. I could have installed mine myself but I don't have any tools.

 

yeah i don't have anything in my house. i might have a flathead screwdriver somewhere but that's about it lol
