That upset me but no biggie till I looked at my bank account and they took the money out for it while its out of stock and not shipped... what the hell kind of shady business practice is that? Sent an email and am going to call them in the morning, that order will be canceled and the money needs to be back in my account by monday morning. Not impressed HPT.

Somewhat normal for a back order to be pre-paid. Still not right that it was shown as in stock though...

Always-On from Diode Dyanmics, and a quick spot shine of the windows and hood since California is in a serious drought.

Thats where I have a problem. If i knew it was back ordered and it would be a pre paid I would be upset over it. But I ordered from them thinking it was in stock and would ship, and the conformation showed an expected delivery date of this week.

How was the install? Did you remove the stock third brake light? What do you use to cover the holes in the rear deck?

TiC delrin steering rack bushings. Must have driven back to O'Reilly's at least 2 times before finding the right size tool to pop those old bushings out ~____~

So far they came out pretty well. I still need to wetsand and buff the clear, just letting them dry for a few days before I do that though!

Install is fairly simple. To install I only removed the cover on the passenger side C pillar to route the wire to the trunk, there is a hole just big enough to get the connector thru to the trunk without taking everything apart.
I removed the top half of the third brake light since the bottom half comes out with the rear deck. The only reason I haven't removed the rear deck to totally get rid of the housing is time/help to do it without bending it.
As far as the holes, the intec light comes with pieces to cover the holes once you remove the stock light.

I literally was just researching this yesterday! Looks sweet. A little pricey though.

View out of the back is so much better with the stock light removed.
