Any issues installing them - Or was it straightforward ?

It is straightforward. But do yourself a favor and get the rubber bump stops that @broncorik shared in the main Flush Mount Taillight thread. You will need 2 for the driver's side. On the OEM taillight you will see Ford used a foam washer/spacer. Oracle provides a collapsible rubber tubing that is frankly garbage. Save yourself the aggravation and get 2 packs of the universal rubber bump stops.

The big one pictured is what you will use. You will drill a hole with 11/32 drill bit. Then take an exacto blade to clean up the hole as rubber doesn't drill cleanly. On the back side, you will note an inside lip. Cut that way. That recessed back opening fits perfectly over the bolt hole and provides a firm but exact spacing needed to gain the flush mount.

Welcome. You can reference @broncorik original post with more photos and description.

Keep in mind that others have used other items ranging form gluing washers together to reusing left over rubber pieces from the wall-mount t.v.

I used the rubber bump stops on mine.

Been eyeing these for the Wife. She really wants them, but we need to find a forscan tool so we can flash the computer for them.
