Need Help with 05 altezza tails install.

Hey bros. Just received my lenses today . The outside lenses bolted on without a hitch, bit the inner lenses on the trunk are a pain in the ass. I can't seem to get ahold of the mounting brackets to release them from the trunk. Does anyone know a way of releasing the brackets to get the old lenses off? One of the brackets on the altezza's was broken during shipping so I need to replace them with the existing brackets. Any help would be appreciated...I'm anxious to get these suckers on there. Thanks

my problem is that I can't physically get to the brackets so that I can release them from the trunk. The brackets need to be pinched so they can release but the light housing is in the way. Does that make sense?

I'll post some pics for the Altezza haters out there . I have a phantom grey rolla so I went for the carbon fibre model. I'm not a flashy kind of guy ; I like the understated look.

That I'd love to see. I was thinking of going with the darker carbon fibre for my Silverstreak Mica rolla but wanted to see it in action first.

To date, the best one's I've see are here - but carbon fibre isn't available anymore and I heard that 4CarOption was a dishonorable vendor.

Carbon Fibre



Silver

That's where I got them from bro. They are a bit shady if you ask me. Not once did they return my emails and they wouldn't help me with the bracket that was broken off during shipping. I ended up bolting the bad boys on anyways. They look bad-ass bro. They make the ass end of my ride look like an IS 300. I'll post pics tomorrow.

i want silver/white tailights. where are they the cheapest? do u think ebay will carry them? i used to have some for my s10. only cost me $60 w/shipping. (org. azzletta too, not off brand). i wonder if they will look good on a black 05 rolla though. hmmmm.......
