Default Do your Eg hatch red / clear tails fit GOOD??

I ordered a set of the red / clear tails off ebay and just installed them.
I will post some pics in a few minutes but mine are not fitting that great.
The outer ones when tightened down are sitting too deep on the car. Not really a problem since I will add washers underneath the light bolt which will allow the tail to come out further to amtch the exterior panels.

Drivers side outer tail light: Opening for the small bulb on the red reflector part is too small for the bulb to get in I probably can dremel the plastic out a little bit, but I shouldn't have to do this

Both the inner tails are sitting flush on the car, but the gaps along the top edge are kind of big as well as towards the inside next to the license plate. The gap along the bottom is perfect, but you can't hardly see it unless you get down low to the ground

So far I have to give my red / clears a

I'm going to e-mail the guy I purchased them from and show him pics. Maybe he can get me a new outer drivers and both inner tails

I just would like to know how your red / clear tails fit and where you got them from? If ebay, please say who the person was. Thanks!

Here are the pics:

I would rather have that problem then fitment problems.
Just get some clear all weather silicone and go to work on the seams
Problem solved
