4. Starting from the middle of the vehicle, pull up the sealing strip above the edge of the inner panel of the trunk lid.
5. Pry open the trunk lid light located on the rear interior trim panel and disconnect the wiring harness of the light assembly. Set the light assembly aside and tuck the wiring harness back behind the panel.

Taillight Installation
16. Place one of the magnetic resistors in the cavity between the vehicle body and the rear bumper cover, as shown in the diagram below.
(WARNING: Resistors get extremely HOT. Mount them to a metal surface away from wires or plastic to prevent melting)
17. Lift the new taillight assembly onto the vehicle and connect the taillight wiring harness and the resistor.
18. Push the taillight assembly into the taillight recess of the vehicle, being careful not to squeeze or jam the wires. Reinstall the two 10mm bolts that secure the taillight to the vehicle.
19. When installing the taillights, you can place the mode switch wires in the gap shown in the image below so that you can still easily change them later.
20. Repeat steps 16-19 on the other side of the car.
21. Enter the vehicle and confirm that all functions are working properly.
22. Reassemble the car in the reverse order of disassembly.
If you are experiencing connection or control issues with the RGB app, please check the following:
Phone Settings & Power: Ensure your phone's Bluetooth is turned ON.
Ensure Location Services (GPS) are turned ON (required for Bluetooth scanning on Android).
Important: The vehicle's Running Lights (Parking Lights) must be turned ON to power the Bluetooth module. Signal Interference:
Make sure there are no other strong signal sources inside or near the vehicle that could interfere with the connection.
App Installation:
Android Users: Please scan the QR code provided to download the App.
iOS Users: You can scan the QR code or search for the App name in the Apple App Store.
💡 Pro Tip: If you previously used the "Light Running" app and are having issues, please try downloading "Star Light Running". This is the enhanced/upgraded version of the App. Synchronization Issues (One side not working):
Most RGB kits use a physical wire to sync the left and right lights. If you can only control one side via the App, please check the Sync Signal Wire connecting the two lights to ensure it is plugged in securely.
