Ok, am I missing something here (besides 8 Gig)? I just installed 16 GB of Crucial RAM and opened up the System Memory screen to see what it said and it's only showing 8. The package shows - 2 - 8GB DDR3L - 1600 SODIMM MAC. I haven't taken it apart again to make sure they are seated correctly but I'm pretty sure they are.
Got a tip for us?

Check the memory tab in "About This Mac"
It shows the two banks of memory and should look like this...

Yeah those clips can be quite annoying. It took me 3 times to sit the bottom stick properly.
I tried several times to seat the ram properly, then took it to the apple store on an unrelated issue (which they couldn't fix) and asked them to check the ram, which they did fix.
