I got the tail lights installed. Super easy. The first one took about 20 minutes and the second one about 10.
I have an OR-Fab tire carrier and they clear it really well. You can see where the factory light was rubbing on the bracket for the carrier.
And they don't stick out very far.
They are very bright. They have a built in back up light that is brighter than the stock light. They include a bracket that retains the stock bulb to take care of the fast flash that happens with most LED conversions. The instructions show to leave the stock reverse light socket there so that you can revert to the stock lights and remove the LED lights if you want. But I removed the stock socket to free up a little room. You don't have to modify the tail light opening at all to install the lights. So if you are leasing a vehicle then these would be the lights for you because you retain all the factory wiring and sockets and make no modification to the body.

Finally got the lugs pressed on the HD tire carrier and finished the install. No more squeak after every bump.
BTW holy crap to the 40s above my post. Looks sick!
