8.  Secure the back plate with the supplied #6 screw and lock washer. 

 

 

 

 

 
9.  Place the original lens gasket into place and replace the tail light lens.  Tighten the screws 

down carefully. 

 
 

  

  

  

 

 

 
Cut off the existing light socket as it will not be used.  Do not strip the wires.  Trim the wires from 
LED assembly to appropriate length once mounted, making sure wires are routed cleanly and 
securely. 
10. 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.
