I purchased the Light Saver for my C4S and I'm also having fitment issues with the bottom of the trunk touching the LS. I tried removing the lights and dropping down the light mounting brackets per the video. I also raised up the trunk bump stops as much as possible (raise them too much, and the lid won't latch closed).

Right now, I think I have the right light's mounting brackets dropped as low as possible and the LSs still touch the bottom portion trunk when closed -- as in, I can't even slide a credit card through the gap.

I'm going to fiddle more with the mounting brackets to see if I can get more clearance, but right now, I'm a bit frustrated at what I expected to be a 10 minute install.

mine fit pretty good on my turbo, but of course that is a different lid.
