I cant even imagine what all had to happen for it to take that long. Did you stop in the middle and take an Alaskan cruise or something?

Your not the only one it takes a while for. It litterally took 2 sets of hands to push pry and get the frc to snap down. Then to make mattters worse, the drivers side clips wouldn't hold down so I had to fab some up w/ little heat tape to keep it from popping up. So your not the only one that it take some time to install these.

Wow, those look real good. Do they actually light up or do they just glow in the dark?

they are led lit. the material is called day-glo or flourescent acrylic, anywhere it has a cut edge is where it lights.
