led marker lights installation

#1 by WeeTim , Sat Jan 21, 2017 9:52 am

I am going to install the Amber LED marker lights on the running boards. I am wanting them to come on with my side lights and was wondering what wires and location this would be best to cut into ??


If it ain't broke don't touch it

Just pull the tail lights out and look, or use a test light or power probe.

If you take the light cluster off find the rear tail light live run the wire down connect each led continue the wire over the chassis and repeat on the other step
