from outside the vehicle or inside the vehicle depending on the make and model.
•Outside — remove the screws holding the tail light covers. Remove the covers and work the
taillight assemblies loose to expose the wiring.
•Inside — remove the plastic or fabric covering the assemblies to expose the wiring.
3) Plug the the wiring harness into the controller.
4) Route the DRIVER side wiring harness (yellow and brown wires in a bundle) to the DRIVER side
tail light wiring. Route behind interior panels as practical.
5) Route the PASSENGER side wiring harness (green and brown wires in a bundle) to the
PASSENGER tail light wiring. Route behind interior panels as practical.
6) Route the 4-wire FLAT cable to the front of the vehicle. Wire tie every 8 inches to 12 inches as
necessary to insure good mechanical connection to vehicle frame.
