This will be my weekend mission. I will post pictures when I finally figure out the exactly position they must sit.

I did it once last summer. I must have gotten lucky as it only took 2-3 tries before I figured it out. It was a tight fit though and I remember that the trunk lid had just enough room to shut and latch. I sure didn't want to have to slam the lid to get it to latch.

I wonder if I have a different style or something, because mine go right in.

The first one goes in like this with the wraparound part pointing to the driver's side taillight...



The second one goes on top of it like this, with the wraparound part pointing to the passenger side taillight...



In the bags, they look like this...

Hey Griz,
are they OEM humps? Mine are and I can't seem to get them to fit in my 02 like that. I can get both in the front trunk though. It's a very tight squeeze but i can do it. Normally I just put one it the front and one in the back.

No, mine aren't factory, they're after-market.
