Gen6 Weekend Camry Makeover (LED Tails and MORE!)

I had a very productive weekend. I installed all new interior LED lights -- overhead (front and rear), doors, trunk, and tag lights. I will be changing the glovebox and the vanity lights as soon as the lights are delivered. Keeping with the LED theme, I installed my new LED tail lights (pictures included). What a pain that was!! Additionally, I had the windows tinted (pictured) and installed a chrome trunk deck piece (pictured). My last project will be the TRD springs. I'm just waiting to hear from Corey (CorCamrySE):hypnosis: LOOK INTO MY EYES.....

Not a garage, it's an old tobacco barn that I own.

As other have said and warned, the tab on the bottom of the tail lights catches on the bumper. If you remove the bumper cover it isn't a pain. The finish of the new tails is good, but not as good as factory IMHO.
