Each flasher can control 2 LED heads

The LED light heads must be installed inside an existing light assembly on the vehicle.

Unidirectional LED light heads must be vertical to ensure proper light distribution.

Spherical LED light heads can be installed in any direction.

Unidirectional LED light heads should only be installed in a 1” hole on a top or bottom
surface that allows the base of the head to be horizontal. Both the Unidirectional and
Spherical LED light heads should have 3” diameter total clearance inside the housing (allows
1” clearance on all sides of the head).


1. Establish a location for each flasher unit that is close to the LED heads it will operate The

location should have limited exposure to the environment (e.g. trunk, engine compartment, cab,
etc.). Use the enclosed hex head screw (P30053-46) to attach the flasher to the vehicle.

2. Determine a path for the Power and Ground wires from each unit (as well as the WHITE sync

wires if installing and synchronizing multiple flashers or other synchronizable heads).

3. Remove the headlight or taillight assembly according to the vehicle manufacturer’s instructions.

4. Find a location on each light

assembly that will
accommodate the light head,
as well as not interfere with
other components.

Remember that Unidirectional LED heads must be installed on a horizontal surface.

5. Using a #40 bit, drill your holes according to the diagrams below. For the Unidirectional

LED light heads, take care to drill the screw holes so that when installed, the heads will
be directed out of the corners at a 45º angle to

the vehicle (see diagram below).

6. Place a gasket over each head and install the heads using the 5/8” Philips head screws

included.

7. Re-assemble the light housings on your vehicle.

Installation

WARNING!! The heat output of the LED
head can melt plastic if it is not installed
with adequate space around the unit. A
minimum of 1” clearance is recommended.
