Installation Guide

Step 1
Open the vehicle tailgate and fold the third row seats forward.
Remove the scuff panel by pulling out on the bottom and then
up. Take care not to damage the alignment tabs on the back (E).
Step 2
Remove the cargo mount covers (F). Remove
the plastic fasteners securing the side panels (G).
Step 3
Starting on the driver side, pull back on the side panels
to locate the vehicle taillight wiring harness connectors (H).
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 4
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 (I).
Step 5
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 6
Route the custom wiring harness end with the green wire
to the passenger side behind the removed scuff panel.
Repeat steps 3-4 on the passenger side using the harness
end with the green wire.
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
Route the black power wire from the vehicle battery
as shown on the included CME-PCL-INS sheet.
Step 9
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 10
Reinstall all items removed during install. Install the
provided 4-flat dust cover to help prevent corrosion.
