C'mon now. Install takes 10 minutes, so I can see it taking 10 minutes before you have any pics of the lights on the truck. But, currently, they must be sitting in a box, and yet you have no pics of them! We need to see these, out of the box, and on the truck! Hurry! :)

I know I want them in to, I just had my 3rd back surgery and can't bend over due to the incisions. Everything should be easy but do I have to get under the rear end to unplug the the wire to the factory taillights or can I pull it up by the bumper without having to bend over. Thats the only thing stopping from hooking them up. It's killing me to look at them in the box!!! It figures they come in 2 days early when I can't put them in now if I didn't have the surgery I would probably still be waiting!! Can some advise how far down the plug is and if I have to lay down on the ground to get the factory light unplugged.
Thanks

Nope, you need to get under the truck... There's a plastic clip, as I recall, that tethers half of the harness to the underside of the truck. You'll only have a little bit of slack with the light-end's wiring. You'll want to disconnect the wiring first, and then pull the lights from the truck.

So, sounds like you might need to wait.

I just got mine too. To cold to install. Had one question. Mine has these black covers over the things that slide into the body to snap in place, they look way to big compared to stock. Ill post a pic to show what I'm talking about

I know what you're talking about. I think I had to replace my mom's with the stock parts. Once I did, the right side fit perfectly, but the left side had a gap. It took some tricks to get it in there properly.

Sounds like you need a fellow member to come over help out a friend in time of need. Nobody should have to suffer with having a mod still in the box, and not be able to install!
