Kit Includes:

Installation:

1. Remove the three screws that secure the tail light lens and remove the lens.

2. Remove the light bulb

3. Push and twist to remove the plastic wire socket from the back side of the housing.

4. Now is a good time to clean the lens and housing. If lenses are in bad shape a new set is
recommended.

5. Remove the lock nut and flat plastic back plate from the back of the new LED assembly.

6. Make sure that one wire is still going through each hole in the
aluminum spacer. Insert the new LED assembly through the hole
where the original bulb and connector were located. Use caution
when feeding the wires through to avoid damaging the wire
insulation.

7. Guide the wires through the larger hole in the plastic back plate and slide
the back plate onto the stud sticking out the back side of the housing.
Ensure wires are not pinched to avoid shorting!

8. Secure the plastic back plate from the back side of the tail light housing
with the supplied #6 lock nut.

9. Make sure the original lens gasket is in place and replace the tail light
lens. Tighten the screws down carefully.

wires from LED assembly to appropriate length once mounted, making sure wires are routed
cleanly and securely.

11. Use the supplied moisture resistant pigtail connectors* to attach the wires from the new LED
assembly to the existing vehicle harness. Insert appropriate wire from vehicle harness and
mating LED assembly wire into a connector and crimp following instructions below.

*For the best connection, soldering is recommended. But to simplify installation, the supplied connectors will

provide a fast weather resistant connection.

The correct crimp method for the supplied connectors is:

1.) Insert UNSTRIPPED wires into the connector and ensure they are all they way in by
observing the clear bottom of the connector to see the wires are touching the end.

2.) Use pliers to push the blue cap down flush with the edge of the clear body, completing the
connection. The connection will only be correct if pressed firmly down with pliers.

12. Repeat for the other side.

13. Test the tail lights, brake lights, and turn signals. If the turn signals do not flash you will need
to upgrade your flasher. If you are replacing only the rear turn signals you should be able to
use a heavy duty electronic flasher from your local parts store. If you are replacing both front
and rear or do not have front bulbs you will need a no-load flasher , D akota Digital part number
