Default Help ASAP with Export Taillights

I just got my export taillights in and the socket for the bulb isn't the same one. Liek the lil clip that goes inside the bulb that holds the socket in, one of them (the big one) is a lil too big. Did yall trim yalls or what? What do I do to put them on? Thanks! -Kenny M.

yea you just have to trim the notches a little to make the bulb sockets fit into the taillight. I just used an xacto-knife.
