Tom's tail light gap
 
Just received my Tom's tail lamp from @RavSpec, they look great! Except the right passenger trail light seems to have a gap from manufacturer. Doesn't seem to be a way to push the tab in :-(

I'll contact @RavSpec and figure this out in meantime. Anyone else have this?

I have the same gap on the same side. It doesn't really bother me anymore. But I've seen others with perfect fitment.

U need to push it all the way into place before tightening. Thats what I did at least

Were you able to flex the whole tail light to push that in?! I'll give that a try.

I'm definitely OCD, can't have the gap!

I pushed it flush with my car while my wife tightened the bolts, may need 2 ppl.

There is a long protruding "stick" on the back of the taillights that needs to go into a hole to make it sit flush. Make sure that's in correctly. Make sure you didn't break it either trying to jam the tail light in there.

:cheers:

Definitely have someone else push the tail in place while you tighten the bolts. Much easier to do and will ensure a tight fit. After having my wife help out, mine sit perfectly flush now as well.

It's actually not the taillight against the body. That part is fine.

There is a tab on the side marker that is not seated. I would have to open the tail light and push it snapped closed.

I had these shreds of plastic in my clear tom's. It wasn't a big deal, but man it looked like it was scratched from the inside and very annoying to look at. Will@486power took care of it right away and I got it replaced within a week. Great customer service going on over there.
