This was difficult for me to install myself because the wires coming out of my ceiling were so short. I also have to say in the most laymens terms possible that it was difficult to take 2 tiny wires (one from each light socket in the fixture) and twist them together to connect to the one coming from the ceiling. They kept falling off until I got the hang of it. I eventually got it, after a lot of swearing and watching YouTube how to videos. To be fair, this was only the third light fixture Ive ever installed ever, so others may have an easier time. I like the fixture and it looks much better than the one I used to have.
