Step 1
Open the vehicle tailgate. Remove all trunk floor coverings (A).
Step 2
Remove the two push fasteners securing the rear scuff panel.
Remove the scuff panel by pulling out on the bottom and then
up (B,C). Note: It may be necessary to push in the center of the
push fastener to release it from the panel.
Step 3
Starting on the driver side, remove the rear cargo loop and two
plastic fasteners securing the rear trim panel. Remove the two
screws securing the seat release handle (D).
Step 4
Pull back on the rear trim panel to locate the vehicle taillight wiring
harness connectors (E). The connectors will be similar to those
on the custom wiring harness. On some models the harness may
be located further up in the trim panel. Gently pull back on the
upper trim panel to expose the harness connectors. Separate the
connectors from the taillight housing taking care not to damage
the locking tabs.
Step 5
Insert the custom wiring harness end between the separated
connectors. Make sure the connectors are fully inserted with
locking tabs in place (F). Note: It may be necessary to remove the
finish panel behind the driver side rear seat to allow better access
the connectors behind the rear trim panel.
Step 6
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 7
Locate a flat spot inside the vehicle, near the taillight. Adhere
the black converter box using the provided double-sided tape.
Step 8
Install the 10 amp fuse provided in the fuse holder and install the
fuse holder cap. 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.
Step 9
Reinstall all items removed during install.
Step 10
Locate the vehicle’s fuse panel under the dash and insert the
10 amp low profile mini fuse into the fuse panel in position 10 (G).
Step 11
Reinstall all items removed during install. Install the
provided 4-flat dust cover to help prevent corrosion.
