    That was my issue at first. It could stuff without popping the panel back out.

    So I removed the harness clip that the female oem connector was attached too and now they fit just fine.

    Install. Is. Complete.

    Rofl omg I did that too! I felt like such a dumbass. :frusty: so I just pulled it back from the driver side and ran it through the hole on the cab and shoved it from passenger side to driver side under the carpet/behind console. I wasn't running that through the boot again!

    Nope, you're not alone! I sliced the crap out of my thumb cutting the tape on the passenger side boot. Blood was gushing everywhere. Fun times.

    Got it done! Took a little less than three hours.

    No other lights on in the garage except the puddles! Absolutely love this mod. Thank you @MESO!

    I usually use a straightened out metal coat hanger for feeding wires. Tape the wire to the end and feed it through. That’s what I’m gonna try.

    Did you put the cables in the wrong spots when you put the door panel back on ?

    Well we are about to find out if I mixed the cables I actually drove out to other side of town for quick appointment and realized the issue.

    I also didn’t plug my driver speaker back in. So I Clearly was too excited to finish the install I forgot simple steps. Shoutout to my brain for always functioning at top performances

    Just don't expect me to admit why I would consider that as the problem.
