Step 1
Venza
Open the vehicle tailgate. Remove the rubber mat, trunk floor
panels, rear scuff panel and trays (A,B). Set aside all items
removed taking care not to damage parts. On both sides of
the vehicle, remove the cargo loops so the trim panels can be
carefully pulled away from the vehicle (C).
Avalon and Camry
Open the vehicle tailgate. Remove the floor coverings. Remove
the two plastic fasteners securing the rear scuff panel (D). Push
on the center of the fastener while pulling to remove it. Remove
the scuff panel by pulling out on the bottom and then up. Take
care not to damage the alignment tabs on the back.
Step 2
Starting on the driver side, 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. Separate the connectors from the taillight housing
taking care not to damage the locking tabs.
Step 3
Insert the custom wiring harness end with yellow wire between
the separated connectors. Make sure the connectors are fully
inserted with locking tabs in place (F).
Step 4
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 5
Route the custom wiring harness end with the green wire
to the passenger side behind the removed scuff panels.
Repeat steps 2-3 on the passenger side using the harness
end with the green wire.
Step 6
Locate a flat spot inside the vehicle, near the taillight. Adhere
the black converter box using the provided double-sided tape.
Step 7
Route the black power wire from the vehicle battery
as shown on the included CME-PCL-INS sheet.
Step 8
When in use, route the 4-flat to the center of the vehicle and out
of the trunk. When not in use, roll up and store in a convenient,
out of the way location inside the trunk. Secure any loose wires
with the provided cable ties.
Step 9
Reinstall all items removed during install. Install the
provided 4-flat dust cover to help prevent corrosion.
