1. Remove the core-support trim

Release the thirteen push rivets by pressing their centres down, then lift out the trim panel. Reset each rivet before reuse.

2. Remove the four mounting-hole rivets

Use a plastic trim tool or flat screwdriver to remove the four additional rivets shown in the original photo.

3. Attach the application brackets

Use the supplied M8 hardware to install the brackets at the newly exposed holes. The two source photos show the position and bracket orientation.

4. Mount the SS6 lights

Install the six-inch lights with the supplied M6 hardware and a 10 mm wrench. The manufacturer shows both an older SS6 Classic mount and the current SS6 with its adapter. Use the arrangement supplied for your lights, not a pictured older component by assumption.

Wiring diagram

5. Mount the relay

Choose a secure relay location near the battery or main power terminal.

6. Connect fused power

Connect red to battery positive or the main positive terminal and black to battery negative or a factory ground. Retain the harness fuse protection.

7. Connect the control switch

If using a compatible auxiliary switch, disconnect the toggle lead at the white connector, fit the supplied pigtail and connect its yellow wire to the switch lead. The switch controls the relay; lamp power is supplied at the battery. Otherwise use the included toggle arrangement.

8. Route the outputs

Keep the wiring away from heat and moving parts. Connect each output to its lightbar.

9. Test and aim the selected optic

Check both lights and aim them for their selected Driving or Fog/Wide function. Follow the applicable installation and road-use requirements; the guide supplies no universal numeric aiming measurement for this kit.

10. Refit the trim

Reinstall the core-support trim with its thirteen original rivets. Press their centres flush to lock them.
