Hi guys!
I know this is pretty straightforward and easy, but creating a specific thread could help someone when searching for it.

There is a great video from CJPonyParts that shows the roush quad-tip rear valance, and it starts with removing taillights :D
You need the video from start until about 6:35 min.

I took some pictures when removing mine. Please note that since mine is EU model I had clear taillights but I have applied a red vinyl kit to get a more 'american' look :D

These are the bolts to be removed



the third one



and the connector



connector on the other side (with that green "FM rear" box, probably only in EU model)



Done!





:cheers:

Unfortunately Ford makes it very hard to swap between EU and US: different connector with different number of wires, and different behaviour (no sequential turn, brake lights only on two bars)..

I plan to send my V6 to europe nexo year and i will have to go through some conversion.

Clear light is not a direct swap but shouldn't be so difficult.

Also I have seen a few companies in Europe doing the conversion to eu specs from the us tail lights.

Fog light goes with the reverse light. No fog light in the tail lights

That looks very good, which red vinyl kit did you use?
