Installing Altezza Lights?

This is a really simple question, how do I install Altezza tail lights? I just got them tonight and there are no instructions on the site or in the box. Thanks for any help you can give me.

1. Put Altezzas back in box.
2. Place box in front of right rear tire.
3. Enter the vehicle, and prodceed to turn it on.
4. Shift into drive and accelerate.
5. Shift into reverse and accelerate.
6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 until it is not possible anymore.
7. OR do what Ravq said.

Hey, I noticed that you live in NJ. Where abouts? If you're close enough, I could help you with the install. E-mail me if you're still interested.

HAHAHAHA!! OK I figured out how to install them but all the harnesses(wrong spelling) only have two outlets when the side light has three bulbs. Did they send me the wrong parts?

No, the side light should be on the stock harness from what I remember. When you disconnected the stock lights, do you remember how the side bulb was disconnected? (been awhile since I've installed a set)

N/M, I'm an idiot. There should have been a single wiring harness supplied with the lights which goes to the side marker light. So in total, there should have been three wiring harnesses for each side (6 in all).
