Install Wire Harness
Attach the headlight wire harness to the light receptacles starting with the longer leads to the right hand side. The terminals are the same so the wire connectors may be attached to either side of receptacle (Fig. 2).
Route the headlight wire harness across the lower side of the air intake duct and along the right hand side of the engine (Fig. 2).
