Stainless Steel Taillight Guards (Patent Pending)
Time To Install: Approx. 40 Minutes
Step 1.
Removing Factory Taillight
Open the rear door and locate the two Phillips head
screws that are holding the tail light to the vehicle.
Next using a Phillips head screwdriver remove these
two screws. (See Fig. 1A) Then using two hands,
wedge your fingers behind the top part of the taillight
and pull the top of the taillight out. (See Fig. 1B)
Then repeat the same process for the bottom portion
of the taillight, and pull the tail light completely out
from the body. (See Fig. 1C) Next, by turning the
light bulb connectors counter clockwise remove the
upper and lower light bulbs from the taillight. (See
Figs. 1D & 1E) Note: Leave the light bulbs hanging
by their wires until you are ready to reinstall them.

Step 2. Cleaning, Priming &
Loosely Re-installing Taillight
Using Windex, clean the entire taillight, especially the
bottom black plastic section of the taillight. (See Fig.
2A) Next using the primer stick included, thoroughly
prime the black lower section of the taillight. (See
Fig. 2B) Note: The primer has to sit for 5 minutes
before installing the taillight guard onto taillight.
Next reinstall light bulbs, (See Figs. 2C & 2D) Then
loosely reinstall the taillight onto the vehicle. (See
Figs. 2E, 2F, 2G, & 2H.) Note: Fig. 2G is a close up
showing one of the lower clips before it gets completely installed into one of the lower connectors.

Step 3. Cleaning, Priming &
Loosely Re-installing Taillight
Begin by removing the backing from the 3M double
sided tape from the bottom portions of the Taillight
Guard. (See Fig. 3A) Note: Once the backing is
removed, take care not to let this exposed tape touch
any part of the taillight at this point, because it will
get pushed into place later in Step 3. Next, place the
Taillight Guard onto the top portion of the taillight.
Align the Taillight Guard so the Taillight Guard Shear
Form Clip is under the inside edge of the taillight lens.
(See Figs. 3B, 3C & 3D) Next, holding the Taillight
Guard in place on the taillight begin pushing the taillight back into place. Note: At this point find the slot
on top of the Taillight Guard, and looking into the
body of the vehicle align this slot with the vertical section of the body. (See Fig. 3D) Once the alignment is
made with this slot, continue pushing the taillight and
Taillight Guard back onto the vehicle. (See Figs. 3E &
3F) Then push the bottom portion of the Taillight
Guard where the backing of the double sided tape
was previously removed and push on the Taillight
Guard until it seats against the bottom edge of the
taillight. Once it is seated into place push and hold
pressure against this section of the Taillight Guard for
a several seconds. (See Fig. 3G) Next replace the
two Phillips head screws and you are finished with
one side. (See Figs. 3H & 3I) Repeat the same
process on the other side.
