Default Installing Tail Lights - 06 Xb

I'm sorry to bring this up since I know I've seen it before, but, I'm old ! What can I say. Can someone tell me (again) how easy/difficult it is to take off the stock tail lights and install new ones ? Possibly instructions ?
Thanks.

It is not hard at all. There is two bolts and a wiring harness. The hardest part is getting your hand in to access the bolts.

when i replaced my stock tailights, it was my first DIY job. I did it with pretty much no problem. It is a little hard to get the right angle to reach the bolts, but you will be able to get it.

I followed the instructions on the scionlife post and it wasn't that hard at all. Like Murbyrne said, the bolts are a little hard to get to, but overall it's not that hard to do.

not simple yet not arduous. be sure to have proper tools before u start...i made the mestake of not using proper extensions/sockets. if u dont have small hands, coach your kids or little brother/cousin/nephew or day laborer to get their hands in there cuz its really uncomfortable. i just did mine yesterday and my hands still feel boxed in lol

^^^Yes, an extension for your socket is a must have.
