Installation Instructions
Step 1 — Remove Factory Fog Light
Access your factory fog lights by reaching down near the headlight or pulling back the wheel well liner. Disconnect the fog light connector from the vehicle wiring harness and remove the factory fog light housing. Keep the factory hardware — you'll reuse it.
Step 2 — Install Elite Series Fog Light
Mount the new Elite Series fog light using the factory hardware. If your vehicle has side-specific lights, the correct side is indicated on the back of the lamp. The tabs and holes on the bracket align with the factory mounting points. Tighten securely.
Step 3 — Connect Wiring
Use the included wire adapters to connect the fog light to the vehicle wiring harness. Test function — if the light doesn't turn on, flip the connector 180°. Connect the backlight power wire to a fused 12V source (such as a parking light or side marker circuit) using the included T-taps to enable the amber accent backlight. Note: The power source must be fused — do not connect directly to the battery. Check local laws for on-road use of the backlight feature.
Step 4 — Repeat for the other side.
Aiming Instructions
Aiming Video:
Step 1 — Park on a level surface 25 feet from a wall or garage door.
Step 2 — Measure the distance from the ground to the center of your fog lamp (mounting height).
Step 3 — Mark the mounting height on the wall with tape.
Step 4 — Add a second piece of tape four inches below the mounting height — this is your fog light cutoff line.
Step 5 — Using the integrated adjustment screw, aim each fog light so the top of the beam pattern aligns with the cutoff line.
