The harness was easy to install.
I stared at the plug that plugs into the module for a second before I realized that you have to slide it up to reveal the actual plug, then attach it to the module and slide it back down which locks it into place.
Have something soft like a few towels near by to lay the bumper on. You have to roll it onto the paint side to access the 20 little fasteners in order to remove the old bumper and reinstall the new metal bumper.
Before you reinstall the bumper, tighten all the bolts EXCEPT the four longest ones that attach the bumper bracket to the tow bar. The brackets can slide almost an inch either direction so you can center the bumper. keep the bolts loose enough so the bracket can slide. Install the bumper and tighten down the two t-55 bolts, then position the bumper so its centered...shouldnt take much. Now tighten those four bolts down inside the trunk and it will close the gap between the bumper and the bottom of the tailgate.
Good luck.
