tailgate and slip the bracket over the two studs of the handle assembly.

so that it is accessible for tailgate removal. Make sure that the tailgate cannot pinch the harness when
opened or closed.

OEM body harness to the firewall, into the fender well and to the engine
compartment. Make sure to use enough cable ties to prevent the wiring
