    I assumed they came with all bulbs, but they only came with the actual taillight bulbs (no turn signal or reverse), but I transplanted those from the stock taillights...

    So I’d previously dropped two of the original screws holding the stereo in behind the dash (this happened when I was trying to troubleshoot issues with the radio and speakers last spring)...

    :facepalm:

    And was the using the dinky screws seem above (which I got for free from the dealer; One my first times inside a building other than my house since before the COVID lockdown began)!

    Last week, while doing a dry run to see what needed to be done to install the new taillights, I discovered that the screws for the taillights and the screws for the stereo brackets were pretty much the same; I went to the dealer, obtained three taillight screws for free, and finally got around to putting them in today!
