Setup and Installation
Follow these steps for proper installation of your Nilight RGB LED Rock Lights Kit:
- Choose Mounting Location: Select a suitable location on your vehicle's undercarriage, wheel wells, or other desired areas. Ensure the surface is clean and dry.
- Attach Rubber Pads: Each light pod comes with two types of rubber pads (flat and bull bar). Choose the appropriate pad for your mounting surface and seat the light pod onto it, ensuring the wire leads out from the side channel.
- Mount the Lights: Securely mount each light pod in position using the provided screws and nuts.
- Connect Wiring Harnesses: Connect the wiring harness from each light pod to the 8-way splitter on the main controller wiring. Ensure all 4 rock lights are connected to the splitter before connecting the main power. This prevents strong current from damaging the lights.
- Connect Controller to Power: Connect the main controller box to your vehicle's 12V power source. It is recommended to connect to a switch first to avoid draining the battery when the vehicle is off.
- Download and Connect App:
- Scan the QR code provided on the controller or search for "Happy Lighting" in your device's app store.
- Enable Bluetooth on your smartphone.
- Open the "Happy Lighting" app and connect to the light device from the app menu.
- Once connected, you can turn on and control the lights via the app.

Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Nilight RGB LED Rock Lights, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Regular Cleaning: Periodically clean the light pods with a soft cloth and mild detergent to remove dirt, mud, and debris. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the toughened glass.
- Inspect Wiring and Connections: Regularly check all wiring harnesses and connections for any signs of wear, corrosion, or damage. Ensure connections remain secure and waterproof.
- Check Mounting: Verify that the light pods are still securely mounted and that the screws and nuts are tight. Re-tighten if necessary.
- Waterproof Integrity: Although the lights are IP68 waterproof, avoid directing high-pressure water jets directly at the light pods or controller during washing, especially at close range.
The robust construction and IP68 waterproof rating ensure the lights can withstand harsh conditions, but regular inspection and cleaning will prolong their lifespan.
