EASY INSTALLATION, SAVE MONEY $$

2016 Dodge Charger - Very disappointed with how quickly the original burned out. Over $100 on auto parts store websites, god knows how much the store will charge. Open the trunk, take a look. There's a dark gray box with two torx screws - remove them ($10 multi-tool available, look for a torx wrench). Use a little force to pry the trunk panel out, bypassing the existing latch, it is not necessary to remove it completely. It's highly recommended not to have anything in the trunk because if you drop a screw, good luck finding it. To diagnose, press the trunk release button. If the little white plastic semi-circle moves a little, it's time to replace it. A wire harness on the back, two 10mm screws hold it, one holds the ground wire. Remove the old one, hammer it in, put in the new one, screw it on, replace everything else, and the trunk opens. VERY HAPPY with it, very easy to replace even if you are not a "car" it's a great way to learn and save money. THANK YOU for a great product at a great price!
