Ok so for the most part everything is finished however there are a couple of issues im having. Two of the nutserts popped loose as i was drilling into them. Now the screw just spins with the nutsert as i try and tighten it or loosen it. Is there any way to get the screw out? I can only get to the back of one of the nutserts but the other is by the rear door. Next i used a 4.5" wholesaw to cut my lights but the passenger tailight wont go in all the way. Is there an easy way to get it to fit? I have already made sure to push the metal piece behind it all the way back. Also whats the trick on getting the tire carrier to swing in and out easier? Right now it barely opens and is a real pita to close. I know that you can thread the joint in or out but its still reallllllly tight to the point where its scraping off the powder coat when i close it. Again all of the advice is appreciated

I just ordered the rear rock skins, will have to wait about a month or so to get the tire carrier....(i needed 2 new tires). For taillights, i found a set of 7led 4" lights on ebay for $60.
1 of the led's is white for a reverse light.
I also got the poison spyder led resistor kit after seeing some of the earlier posts.
How much work is needed to get the rock skins to fit halfway decent? will i need body tools, or would a simple hammer, clamps, and ratchet straps work?
