LED TAIL LIGHT INSTALLATION
Poison Spyder Customs 4” LED taillights
are designed to work with Poison Spyder
Crusher Corners that were specically made
for aftermarket LED taillights. They also work
with other manufacturer’s corner protectors, or
on Jeeps without any corner protectors. In all
cases, a 4-1/2” round hole must be cut into corner
protector or sheet metal to install the LED (plus
screw holes for the ange-mount style LED).
These instructions do not cover the procedure
for creating this mounting hole, it is assumed that
it is already present or you purchased Poison
Spyder Crusher Corners already made for LED
taillights.
1. Pull the factory wiring harness taillight plug
through the 4” LED hole to have room to
work.
2. Cut the factory taillight plug from the stock
taillight pigtail (between the plug and the
taillight). You will re-use the taillight side of
this plug. Leave as much wire as possible.
3. Use the information in Table 1 to make
the correct connections between the cut
wires from the factory taillight plug, and the

black and red wires in the supplied LED
pigtail harness. Whether you solder or
crimp-connect, we recommend using heatshrink tubing on all connections. Once the
necessary electrical connections have been
made, plug the OEM pigtail plug (now with
the LED pigtail attached) back into plug in
the Jeep’s chassis harness. Do not plug the
opposite end of the pigtail into the LED lamp
xture at this time.
4. Tape-off unused wires in the stock harness.
These will be the violet/black wire on both
sides (unless you are wiring your own,
separate back-up lights) and the green/red
wire on the passenger side, which is unused.
Stow these wires inside the wire loom or ziptie them securely to the harness.
5. Properly ground the white wire in the LED
pigtail harness to your Jeep’s body. The
push-in style LED’s come with a ring terminal
already connected to the white wire. With
the ange-mount style LED, you will need to
add a ring terminal to the white ground wire.
Use a sheet metal screw or self-tapping
(“tek”) screw to secure the ground. Be sure

not to drill through any sheet metal where
the back side is exposed or visible. Sand or
grind the area where the terminal will contact
the sheet metal to ensure a positive contact.
6. Plug the LED lamp xture into the wiring
harness pigtail, then check for operation
by switching on turn signals, running lights,
brakes. If you have not installed LED-
specic ashers yet, the ash speed may be
incorrect when checking turn signals at this
point. If any light is not working properly, use
a test light or meter to check continuity at
each of the connections you made, and redo as needed.
7. Secure any slack in the wiring harness with
zip ties, split-loom, etc.
8. Install the LED light by either slipping it
into the rubber grommet and pushing it into
the hole (push-in style) or by attaching with
screws (ange-mount style).
INSTALLATION NOTES:
• On CJ8, additional inner wheel well removal
is needed for ush-mount taillight install
• On ’03 and newer TJ’s, the passenger side
taillight may need to be inverted to clear
factory emissions equipment.
LED FLASHER INSTALLATION
LED’s require a special asher module to provide
the correct current resistance for the LED’s as
opposed to the factory incandescent bulbs. If
you install LED’s without the correct asher, you
will notice that your turn signals and ashers will
blink at a faster rate.
The correct LED asher for each year model
Jeep will solve this problem, and is available
separately from Poison Spyder Customs. Each
LED asher is an easy plug-in replacement for
the factory asher.
Locations for the stock ashers are as follows:
1976-96 CJ/YJ: Under dash
1997-2000 TJ: Underneath and to the right of
the steering column, behind dash cover(s).
2001-06 TJ/LJ: On top of steering column,
under steering column cover.
1. Remove any dash or column covers (TJ/LJ)
2. Unplugtheasherfromthe harness.
3. Install Poison Spyder LED Flasher into the
stock asher socket.
4. Check to ensure that all LED’s are working
properly.
5. Replace any dash or column cover(s) that
were removed in step 1.
