Hi, I'm Mike from 1AAuto. We've been selling auto parts for over 30 years! We're dedicated to delivering quality auto parts, expert customer service, and fast and free shipping, all backed by our 100% satisfaction guarantee. We've created thousands of videos to help you install our parts with confidence. That saves you time and money, so visit us at 1AAuto.com, your trusted source for quality auto parts.
In this video, we're going to be working with our 2012 GMC Acadia. We're going to replace the outer tail light assembly here. This is on the passenger's side, but this process is going to be exactly the same on the driver's side. This is an LED assembly, meaning if it burns out, you change the whole housing. There's no bulb in there for you to switch.
If you like this video, please click "Subscribe." We have a ton more information on this vehicle, as well as many other makes and models. If you need this part for your vehicle, you can follow the link down in the description over to 1AAuto.com.
Here are the items you'll need for this repair: 7mm socket, ratchet, socket extension, and flat blade screwdriver.
Open your tailgate. Using a small flat blade screwdriver, carefully remove the covers for the hardware that secures the tail light into place. Remove the two screws located down inside of these holes with the 7 millimeter socket, ratchet, and extension. Pull the tail light housing straight back, and use the small flat blade screwdriver to carefully pry up on this connector. Remove it from the back of the outer tail light assembly.
To install your new outer tail light assembly, simply plug it back in. Line up these pins with the corresponding holes here in the quarter panel. Snap it back into place and reinstall your two 7 millimeter screws. Line up the plastic covers and snap them back into place. Check for proper operation of your tail lights, close your tailgate, and you're good to go.
Thanks for watching. Visit us at 1AAuto.com for quality auto parts, fast and free shipping, and the best customer service in the industry.

I was totally amazed with the video showing the installation and how easy it was. When I received the light, it was well packed. I followed the instructions to the letter and my wife was so amazed at my skills (yours of course) in stalling the light. Superb video and you have a customer for life.
Great Service

Finding the correct part, ordering, shipping and delivery were good. The surface appearance of the part is fine. The fit stinks. The auto has never been wrecked so this tail light should fit fine. It was difficult to align the screw holes. Once installed the upper edge of assembly is not flush to the panel. The vehicle is a 2008 model and about to be traded in. If this had been a newer model with fewer miles I would have sent the part back and opted to spend more on a AC Delco part.
Greatest service ever

Besides arriving in a beat to hell box..contents not harmed, fast delivery. Easy install. Looks great with one small note..it sits 1/8 or so inch lower than light to the left..the inner light. Not very noticeable but i notice, closeup at least. I might try to shim it somehow or just leave as is.
Great product and fast shipping
