Hey guys,
I just ordered mine.
But a quick question.
I heard somewhere, but it could have been regarding other assembly, that there is a turn signal hyper flash issue.
Then I read those are direct plug in - so which one is it?
Also, your take on light intensity vs OEM?

No hyper flashing issues.
Light output is way lower than stock. At least on the smoked version.
Was completely plug and play though.
My only issue was the bolts aren't long enough to reattach the plastic carpet washers in the trunk.
But so far happy.

Thanks for the quick response.
I ordered clear ones. Smoked, although the car is black, did not "talk" to me.
I hope the light intensity will be better... but this is what I was afraid of - too little light vs stock taillights.
We will see.

On the smoked lights (and yes it's black on black, tinted windows and smoked LED side markers and third brake light) I would say that it's adequate for driving but not much more.
I would very seriously doubt that you could pass inspection with them in any state that takes lights seriously.
But they do look good, and all my lights were shot. Both housings, gaskets and bulb carriers.
So I had to buy completely new lights and this seemed like the best option.
No regrets so far.
But yeah. They are kinda dim.
