 The installer must have a firm knowledge of basic electricity, vehicle electrical systems,
and emergency equipment.
 If you need to drill any holes when installing this light, please take care to check that
BOTH SIDES of your drilling surface are clear from obstructions, to ensure that you do
not damage your vehicle and or pre-existing wiring.
 Choose a mounting location away from any air bag deployment areas.
 Controls should be placed within convenient reach of the driver.
 Use only soap and water when cleaning this product. Use of other chemicals may
discolor the lens and/or housing, thus diminishing the output of the light. Lenses that
have become discolored should be replaced immediately!
 DO NOT use a pressure washer to clean this light. Use of a pressure washer may
damage the light and WILL VOID THE WARRANTY.
nstallation Notes
Wiring Notes
When wiring your lights, it is recommended that you take the following
precautions to reduce any Electromagnetic Interference (EMI).
 Keep LED modules and any radios as far away from each other as possible.
 Separate the radio wires and the LED wires.
 Any excess wires should be cut short.
 The Ground, Power, and Synchronization wires should be bound tightly together as
they run from light to light, through your switchbox, and finally to the battery.
 Do not ground each unit independently to the chassis. Run the ground for each unit
in a “bus” like structure, to the negative terminal on the battery.
Steady Burn Programming
Programming Steady urn Pattern in Single Mode:
1. Power the light up - Red wire to power
Black wire and Green/White wire to Ground.
2. Hold Green wire to Ground until the light blinks six times (approximately 1 seconds),
then release it. The light should change to the Steady Burn pattern.
3. To exit Steady Burn pattern: Touch and release the Green wire to Ground.
Programming Steady urn Pattern in Split Mode:
1. Power the light up (both Red and Green/White wire to power). Touch and hold the
Green wire to Ground until the light blinks six times (approximately 1 seconds), then
release it. One of the two halves will become steady, while the other flashes.
2. To change the pattern on the flashing side, touch and release the Green wire to Ground.
3. To flip-flop the steady side and the flashing sides, hold the Green wire to Ground until
the light flashes 5 times (approximately 15 seconds) and then release it.
4. To exit Steady Burn pattern: Touch and release the Green wire to Ground.
Power MUST be applied to all synchronized lights
simultaneously. Excessive switch bounce or attempting to
power the units up independently will result in erratic operation.

3. Route the wires as
shown to the right:
4. Seal the wire hole with
silicone to prevent your
wires from becoming
damaged.
5. If you are using the well nuts, push the
enclosed rubber well nuts through the
holes until the bottom side of the wider
lip rests on the surface of the vehicle.
6. Review the mounting diagram and use the appropriate screws to mount the bezel.
 Check the gasket to ensure it is resting flat and that there are no gaps
between the light and the mounting surface.
 Take extreme caution not to over tighten the screws!!! Over tightening
of the screws can strip the holes and result in a faulty mount.
7. Once the bezel is firmly attached to the mounting surface, seat the foam compression
gasket inside of it. Carefully feed any loose wire into the wire hole and press the LED
head into the bezel.
1. Use the gasket as a template
to mark your mounting holes.
2. Determine whether you are going to use the self-tapping screws or the machine screws
and well nuts..
 Use the self tapping screws for applications where the mounting surface is a minimum
of .060” (1/16”) thick and is composed of a material that will provide sufficient “bite” for
the self tapping screw.
 Use the machine screws and well nuts if your surface is less than .060” thick and/or
composed of a material insufficient for securing with self tapping screws.
