 Repeat this process for the remaining flares.

Step 2. LED Light Installation

Take the front driver and passenger side flares to the work bench. Note: Make sure the bench is properly padded to ensure the flares do not get damaged during installation process.

Locate the supplied LED lights. Place the light into the formed pocket at the front of the flare. Push the hot and neutral wires through the center hole in the pocket. Fig.1

Turn the flare over. Adjust LED light until the mounting holes on the lights line up with the holes in the flares.

If you are not qualified to make the proper connections we highly recommend that you contact an installation expert to complete the connections. The hardware kit comes complete with a wiring harness. This harness can be used to connect the LED lights to your power supply. They are included for your convenience but your specific installation may require additional wiring and other components not supplied in our hardware kit.
