Valance Lights
1. Valance measuring/ drilling
If your valance is painted, I would highly recommend covering the surface of the valance with painters tape before drilling. Painters tape on the valance allows you to create your entire layout and check it before drilling.
- Measure your valance and find the center point. Double check each side for accuracy.
Measure twice and drill once!
I recommend drilling a pilot hole first and then use a 3/4 hole saw drill bit to drill your light holes.
2. Installation of lights
Slide black grommet back toward the wiring and push the light through the hole. Slide grommet into valance and push light into the grommet.
- Remove wire loom if you need to move the lights closer or further apart for easier movability of each light.
3. Wiring
Take the extra wire provided and slide on the solder shrink connectors provided. Strip the ends of both of each of those wires and connect them to the wiring harness. Red connects to black and black to
white. (Harness wires white = negative and black = positive)
- Route the wires into the engine bay and choose a good clean bolt to use as a ground. Strip back the coating on the wire and strip the black negative wire by your desired ground and install ground connector by crimping it.
- Please note that everyone's vehicles are different and there are a few ways to attach power to your harness. If you have aux switches, you can simply wire them to an aux switch. If you do not have aux switches you can tap into your running lights, or you can fuse tap them with a rocker switch. There is not one way to do this step because each vehicle is different.

Rock Light Install
Installing rock lights with only a positive and negative wire is a straightforward process. These lights are often used for accent lighting on vehicles, especially underneath the chassis or around the wheel wells. Here's a general guide on how to install them:
Materials Needed:
- Rock lights kit
- Wire stripper
- Crimp connectors or soldering iron and solder
- Heat shrink tubing
- Electrical tape
- Zip ties or mounting brackets
- Power source (12V battery)
Installation Steps:
-
Plan Your Installation:
- Determine the placement of the rock lights. Common locations include underneath the vehicle chassis or around the wheel wells. Make sure to choose spots that are protected from debris and won't get damaged during regular driving.
-
Prepare the Vehicle:
- Disconnect the vehicle's battery to ensure safety during installation.
-
Prepare the Wires:
- Strip a small section of insulation from the end of both the positive and negative wires on each rock light.
-
Connect Wires to Power Source:
- Identify a suitable power source, such as the vehicle's battery or an auxiliary fuse box. Connect the positive wire from each rock light to the positive terminal of the power source.
- Connect the negative wire from each rock light to the negative terminal of the power source.
-
Secure the Connections:
- Use crimp connectors or soldering to secure the connections between the rock lights and the power source. If using crimp connectors, cover them with heat shrink tubing and use a heat source to seal the tubing.
- Alternatively, you can use electrical tape to secure the connections, but this is not as durable as crimping or soldering.
-
Secure the Rock Lights:
- Attach the rock lights to the chosen locations using zip ties or mounting brackets. Ensure they are securely fastened and won't be damaged while driving.
-
Test the Lights:
- Reconnect the vehicle's battery and test the rock lights to ensure they are working correctly.
-
Secure and Conceal Wiring:
- Use zip ties or adhesive clips to secure the wiring along the vehicle's frame, making sure it is out of the way of moving parts and won't be damaged.
-
Final Checks:
- Double-check all connections and make sure the wiring is securely fastened. Ensure that the rock lights are positioned correctly and won't be damaged during regular use.
-
Reconnect the Battery:
- Once you are satisfied with the installation, reconnect the vehicle's battery.
