5. Guia d'instal·lació

The installation process is designed to be a direct replacement for your factory tail lights. No vehicle modifications are typically required for the light assemblies themselves, however, some wiring routing may require minor adjustments.

5.1 Tools Required (Recommended)

• Plastic automotive interior pry tools
• Joc de claus de sòcol
• Step drill bits (for optional wiring path)
• Zip ties or electrical wrapping tape
• Plastic bushings (for optional wiring path)
• Silicone sealant (for optional wiring path)

5.2 Instal·lació pas a pas

1. Preparació: Park your vehicle on a level surface and engage the parking brake. Disconnect the negative terminal of your vehicle's battery.
2. Access Rear Lights: Open the trunk. Carefully remove any trunk liner panels or access covers to expose the rear of the tail light assemblies. Use plastic pry tools to avoid damaging interior trim.
3. Treure els llums posteriors de fàbrica: Locate and remove the mounting bolts or nuts securing the factory tail lights. Disconnect the electrical connectors by pressing the release tabs and pulling them apart. Carefully remove the old tail light assemblies from the vehicle.
4. Prepare New Tail Lights: Ensure the waterproof pad on the back of the new VLAND tail lights is properly sealed and there are no gaps to prevent moisture ingress.
5. Wiring for Inner Lights (Trunk Lid): For the inner tail lights located on the trunk lid, you will need to route the red and yellow wires from the outboard light electrical harness up the trunk hinge to the inboard lights. There may not be an existing opening in the sheet metal behind the outboard light. If so, drill a small pilot hole (e.g., 1/8") and then carefully use a step drill to enlarge the hole to accommodate a plastic snap bushing. Route the wires through this bushing. It may be necessary to cut and then butt-joint the wires together inside the car for a clean installation. Seal the wires through the bushing with silicone to prevent water seepage. Do NOT run wires across sheet metal edges under rubber trunk trim, as this can cause chafing and wire separation.
6. Connect New Tail Lights: Connect the electrical harnesses of the new VLAND tail lights to the vehicle's wiring. Ensure the connections are firm and secure.
7. Sequential Turn Signal Function: The tail lights come with a plug for the sequential turn signal function. If you prefer not to have the sequential function, disconnect this plug.
8. Muntar nous llums posteriors: Carefully position the new tail light assemblies into their respective openings. Secure them with the original mounting bolts or nuts. Ensure a snug fit. For convertible models, reuse the small mounting panels from the stock tail lights.
9. Funcionalitat de prova: Reconnect the vehicle's battery. Test all light functions: running lights, brake lights, reverse lights, fog lights, and turn signals (both sequential and non-sequential, if applicable).
10. Assemblea final: Once all functions are verified, reinstall any removed trunk liner panels or access covers.
