any local members want to help me install my LED tails? i'm picking up a set this weekend but i don't have the tools to extend the wire harness

i'll bring beer and pizza

TIA

 

I'll help. I can do all of that stuff. I'm 19 but I'll take some beer and pizza XP. PM me...

 

you can come to my place and I'll help you with that, I have LED tails too installed it myself and at the same time we can swap our exhaust.

 

Charlie-
I'd do it, but I'm 6-7 hrs. away. Looks like you have plenty of help available. P.S. Check your PM's- good photos waiting.

 

I dont know if there is a DIY on led tail lights but U should take picks and post, i would help if I had the knowledge/ tools but GOOD luck.

 

thanks for the responses everyone!

Saiko - i'll be in Torrance when i pick up the tail lights. i'll shoot you a PM

Will - i got your voice mail but couldn't call you back because i'm having trouble with my "new" iPhone... stupid iTunes crash

i wasn't expecting so many offers for help ... you guys are awesome

 

yeah, i had searched for a DIY LED install but couldn't find one . pretty surprising considering how many Fits have them. i'll bring my camera along for pics + a DIY when i can get around to it

 

thanks for the offer David, if i'm ever near Boulder Creek i'll make sure to shoot you a message!

YGPM

 

hey can i come BS for fun too? hahaha i can remove the rear bumper... lol and i can bring soldering iron if needed... sorry i've been bored... hahaha OHH i was supposed to pick up LED tails from the guy who is parting out, david something i believe it is? I dunno i know he has a thread in the socal section and he lives in Torrance as well... havent been able to reach him in a while

 

he's probably not responding to the LED offers anymore because i sent him a PM for the LED's and locked in the sale literally 2 minutes after he opened the thread

the more the merrier - i always say.. i gotta figure out where/when we can install the tail lights. my dad has a garage full of tools so we can do it at his house, but Saiko is doing me the favor and i'll drive to his place if need be. i'll PM you with more details when we find out when and where we're going to get these on.

 

y0 dude. come to my house i'm only 15 minutes from ya. I got all tools i can extend it for ya + align em. I've done it to my fit so don't worry. =]

 

haha can't get more convenient than that. whatever is fine with me. just let me know

 

sweet, hahah i was kinda hoping you would chime in kevin

i should be picking up these LED's today. i'll PM you, as soon as i get them in my hands, and find out what works best for your schedule. since you're so close to burbank we should hit up In-n-Out (my treat) then head to that park in Glendale(?) that you were talking about snapping pics at

Saiko - if you're still interested, come through and we'll turn this into a mini-meet. i know a few 818 Fits that have been trying to get together since May

 

Well I'm down. I work mon, tues, thurs, friday from 6-2. sometimes ill work 6-10 but just let me know

 

I got the clear OEM LED tail in my Fit and LOVE 'em

Take off the bumper....a LOT easier, trust me. hahaha

 

i read somewhere that a 12" screwdriver would be long enough to remove the screw behind the bumper

 

well, with a long enough screw driver you can remove that screw but will be a biatch to align back up and reinsert. BUT thats not the problem. The problem is getting the guide pins in the tail light assembly to line up with the bumper.

I didnt wanna remove the bumper either but was forced to and then once I did I was like OH SNAP that was easy. The removal of the rear bumper is like 30 seconds...no joke. It's a snap.

 

ah, i see. i really don't know that i'm getting into yet - thats why i need kevin's help .

Rep Kevin up yo!!!!
