5. Installation Instructions

Follow these steps carefully for proper installation:

1. Preparation: Ensure the vehicle is off and the parking brake is engaged. Disconnect the negative terminal of the car battery to prevent electrical shorts.
2. Locate Existing Lights: Identify the original license plate lights on the rear of your Hyundai i30 CW.
3. Remove Original Lights: Depending on your vehicle's design, the original lights are typically held in place by clips or screws. Carefully pry them out using a plastic trim removal tool or unscrew them. Disconnect the electrical connector from the original light.
4. Connect New LED Lights: Take one Recambo LED module. Connect its electrical connector to the vehicle's wiring harness. Ensure a secure connection.
5. Test Functionality: Before fully securing the new LED module, temporarily reconnect the car battery and turn on your vehicle's lights to verify that the new LED license plate light illuminates correctly. If it does not light up, check the connection and ensure the polarity is correct (though these modules are typically non-polar).
6. Secure New LED Lights: Once tested, carefully insert the new Recambo LED module into the housing, ensuring it clicks into place or is secured with screws, just like the original.
7. Repeat for Second Light: Follow steps 3-6 for the second license plate light.
8. Final Check: Reconnect the car battery's negative terminal. Test both LED license plate lights to ensure they function correctly and are securely mounted.
