    A thing or two...
    Are the tail light bolts in? If you seat the pins on the light, do the bolts light up? From the picture, it looks like most of your gap is from the pins not being seated.

    The bolts are in in but the fender is off just enough to where the inside of it doesn’t even touch the pins to allow them to seat.

    Hey so what’s the latest?

    I was doing some wiring on my truck and had the tail light off and I noticed that I installed 2 bolts where as in your image I don’t think I see them. You have any pics inside/behind the tail light?

    Been going back and forth with one of the installation techs. He’s been pretty good since he even texts me from his cell trying to help me get it aligned but I’m running out of patience because there’s nothing I did wrong and I’m 100% positive. But I do have those bolts in and still no luck with that gap. Hell on the passenger’s side one of the bolts can’t even be bolted in because there isn’t enough material to go over the bolt hole.

    Just about every hole I drilled was too close for comfort to the edge.

    You should post all the pics you’ve shared with ADV
