Brake lamp for the 1000000th time

[Gunslinger]

Got the tabs out and the light assembly off and got it all taken care of. Put the bulb in, it worked, put it all back together except for the last stupid tab at the top. Holy mother of sasquatch, is there a trick to getting that sucker in? The bottom one went in no problem, but this one is like trying to stuff a rhino in a keyhole; it may fit, but it just won't stay in there. Before I go all Mt Vesuvius, which I am in close proximity of mentally, I thought I would ask all of you for some wisdome.

Your assistance is appreciated

Not sure why you are having an issue. Maybe damaged? Can you place the top in first? Have done this myself and never any problem. I had to remove both to install new tail lamp bezels. Maybe remove both lamps and compare what is different to help you decide what is the problem in your re-install is. Sorry, best I can do. Good Luck.
