just got to be a little different. i like the way it goes left or right when the blinker is on

Do you have pics of diy mod?

i had watched a you tube video. it was only held in by four screws. super easy. the hard part was the wires. the harness changes colors from inside the trunk to under the car to the blinkers. i used a power probe to find the correct wires.

If you'd have joined forteforums before, you could have reviewed this...LOL!

Installing the ebay trunk reflector light on the 2019-2021 Forte | Kia Forte Forum (forteforums.com)

sometimes its hard to navigate a form but yes. that would have helped. at least its there for those who dont have extra tools.

Yours seemed to go together better than ForteGT2s - where did you get it?

I just ordered it on eBay. it is for the 2019 to 2021
I took a chance and tried to see if it would fit on my 22 and it did. I don’t like that you can’t use the brake light and the blinker at the same time so I did not hook the brake light up to it at all. because I really like the blinkers and the tail light

Are you saying that you didn't have to do any of the drilling or cutting I did? You just installed this light with no modifying?

correct, it still fit. i took the camera and reverse lights off my and put that on the new light and snapped it all on and put the 10mm nuts back on. the ran the wires
