Open the vehicle tailgate. Remove the rear scuff panel, trunk
floor coverings, storage covers and the privacy screen (A,B).

On both sides, remove all trim fasteners and slightly pull
out on the rear trim panels to locate the vehicle taillight wiring

Step 3
Starting on the driver side, separate the connectors from the
taillight housing taking care not to damage the locking tabs.

Insert the custom wiring harness end with yellow wire
between the separated connectors. Make sure the
connectors are fully inserted with locking tabs in place.
Step 5
Locate a suitable grounding point near the connector such as
an existing screw with nut in the vehicle frame or drill a 3/32"
pilot hole for the provided screw. The area should be free of
rust, dirt and paint. Secure the white ground wire using the ring
terminal and provided screw.
WARNING:
Check for miscellaneous items that may be
hidden behind or under any surface before drilling to avoid
damage and / or personal injury.
Step 6
Route the custom wiring harness end with the green wire to the
passenger side behind the removed scuff panel. Repeat steps

Route the black power wire from the vehicle battery
as shown on the included CME-PCL-INS sheet.
Step 8
Locate a flat spot inside the vehicle, near the taillight. Adhere
the black converter box using the provided double-sided tape.

When in use, route the 4-flat to the center of the vehicle. When
not in use, roll up and store in a convenient, out of the way
location. Secure any loose wires with the provided cable ties.
