SO first things first, Where to buy??

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/LED-smoked-brake-reflector-brake-light-aurion-sportivo-06-up-kit-bar-bumper-/140856773123?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item20cbb7ca03

The lights come in smoked or red, but both with red lights.

*Also cheaper off bodykitskingdom website*

Paul is a good sort and will help you out.

Okay lets have a go at this.

its a very simple task but helps having a guide.

:excl: FIRSTLY I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR CAR yaddah yaddah yaddah............... :excl:

lets get that bumper off!

I always start with the middle first.

there are four screws. 10mm socket or Phillips head doesn't matter.

next there is 1x 10mm socket tin the reses of the wheel arch.

next 1 screw either side in the corners (there are two each side but just do the ones closest to centre) :g:

lastly two screw under the flaps on the boot/

I took these pics after it was off so bare with me.

If you want to take the whole thing off just undo all the under side clips

Start at one side and peel bar back (few cracks and pops but all is well)

If its not coming you have missed a screw!

Im gonna leave the bar on for this because the bumper has a lot of room and access is easy.

whenever I leave the bar on I always cover up the ends. This avoids scratchy scratchy.

Simply unscrew the existing reflector and put em out.

You can see the different thickness, so make sure you use the screw they send with the lights as these are short and fit perfectly :clap:

note my set of lights is darker because I just put some light black Vinyl on. Also easy an easy job.

Please feed the wires throught the holes first!!

Slot the new reflector lights in and screw into place

Should look like this or the first picture which are both done.....sneaky!!

Now we need to thread the wires through.

On each side there is a rubber plug for wire looms.

On the RIGHT side PULL plug out feed wire through and replace.

The left side you must PUSH is an repeat the process

I wrapped all my wires in shrink wrap but its up to you

Righto the part most people dread....wiring!

SO wires are as follows.

Black - Earth (negative for testing)

Red - Normal lights 6v

Blue - Brake lights 12v

please test first for your own benefit

For connection you are give 6 wire clips. Use them or solder away up to you.

IMG_0014.jpg

The three top wires are the ones you want,

Middle wires are your.indicators and the bottom wires are my rear parking sensors

ON MY CAR

The white with two silver dots was my earth and funnily enough the red and blue both match up :clap:

PLEASE follow your wires back if your not sure!

IMG_1818.jpg

****There are at lease 4 white wires with black strips so be careful****

Clip your wires and test.

note... I wanted to wire both up together but they were not long enough.

So I went middle ish for both, this way its hidden by the plastic boot insert

Right

Once everything is in working order and back to normal wait for the sun to go down then....

Hope this helps

Looks good man, But maybe you should of left the reflectors as just reflectors and not LEDs. Cause you want the tailights to stand out on its own ? Still looks good
