components (i.e. open trunks or compartment doors), or other obstructions. Proper installation
is vital to the performance of this device and the safe operation of the vehicle.

Unpacking And Pre-Installation

Carefully remove the light head from its protective packaging. Inspect the unit for transit damage( broken lamps,
scratched lenses, etc.). Report any damage to the carrier and keep the shipping carton.

Verify that there are four (4) #6 X 1-1/2” mounting screws included for each lighthead.

If the three wire cable package was also purchased, verify that each end is terminated with AMP #60619-1 pin
sockets and the parts bag contains two (2) AMP #1-480303-0 Mate-N-Lock socket housings and one #8
noninsulated ring terminal.

equipped. (No opening necessary for 41SPKG.)

4. With one end on the cable at the light head mounting location, route the wire cable back to the cab of the
vehicle or route to connect into the existing stop/tail, turn signal, and reverse light wire circuitry at the rear
of the vehicle.

5. At the light head end of the cable, insert the AMP sockets into the AMP socket housing as shown in
Figure 3. Cut the shield wire flush with the jacket.

6. Allow at least 3 inches of slack at the light head to facilitate lamp replacement.

7. At the power source end of the cable determine if the cable length is acceptable. If a shorter length is
required, cut the cable to the proper length and strip back the outer jacket three inches.
