4. Package Contents
Your package should contain the following items:
- 2x iJDMTOY Full LED Rear Bumper Reflector Light Assemblies (Left and Right)
Note: Wire connectors are not included and must be acquired separately. Posi-taps are recommended for secure connections.
5. Setup and Installation
Installation requires basic automotive wiring knowledge and tools. Professional installation is recommended if you are unfamiliar with vehicle electrical systems.
Required Tools (Not Included):
- Basic hand tools (e.g., screwdriver, trim removal tools)
- Wire strippers/crimpers
- Electrical tape or heat shrink tubing
- Wire connectors (e.g., Posi-taps, T-taps, or solder)
Installation Steps:
- Access OEM Markers: Locate the existing bulb-less reflector markers on the lower rear bumper corners of your Honda Civic Sedan. These are typically secured by fastener clips or screws. Carefully remove them using appropriate trim removal tools or screwdrivers. It may be possible to access these without removing the entire bumper, though this can be challenging and may require smaller hands.
- Prepare Wiring: Each iJDMTOY LED bumper reflector lamp comes with a wiring harness. Identify the wires for connection.
- Route Wires: Carefully route the wires from the new LED bumper reflector lamps to the back of the vehicle's taillamp assembly. Ensure wires are secured and away from moving parts or heat sources.
- Connect Wiring: Connect the wires from the LED bumper reflector lamps to your vehicle's existing taillamp wiring as follows:
- Black Wire: Connect to a reliable ground source.
- Dim/Bright Mode Wires: Connect to the positive (+) wire of your existing tail light and brake/stop light. One wire will activate the dim (running light) function, and the other will activate the bright (brake light) function. Test to confirm correct assignment.
- Green Wire: Connect to the positive (+) wire of your vehicle's turn signal circuit. This will enable the sequential turn signal function.
- Test Functionality: Before fully securing the new lights, test all functions: tail lights, brake lights, and turn signals (left and right) to ensure they operate correctly.
- Secure Lights: Once tested, securely install the new iJDMTOY LED bumper reflector lamps into the bumper openings. Ensure they are firmly seated and all clips/screws are fastened.

6. Operating the Lights
Once installed and wired correctly, the iJDMTOY Full LED Rear Bumper Reflector Lights will operate automatically in conjunction with your vehicle's existing lighting system:
- When your vehicle's headlights/parking lights are on, the LED reflectors will illuminate at a dimmer intensity, functioning as tail lights.
- When the brake pedal is pressed, the LED reflectors will illuminate at a brighter intensity, functioning as brake lights.
- When the turn signal is activated, the LED reflectors will display a dynamic, sequential amber light pattern in the direction of the turn.

7. Maintenance
These LED bumper reflector lights are designed for long-lasting performance with minimal maintenance. To ensure optimal function and appearance:
- Regularly clean the lens with a soft cloth and mild automotive cleaner to remove dirt and debris. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Periodically inspect wiring connections for any signs of wear, corrosion, or looseness. Re-secure or repair as necessary.
- Ensure the lights are free from physical damage that could compromise their integrity or function.
8. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Lights do not illuminate | Incorrect wiring connection, loose ground, blown fuse, incompatible vehicle. | Verify all wiring connections (ground, tail, brake, turn signal). Check vehicle's fuse box for any blown fuses related to lighting. Confirm vehicle compatibility (2022-up Honda Civic Sedan only). |
| Lights flicker or are dim | Poor electrical connection, insufficient power, damaged wiring. | Inspect all wire connections for tightness and corrosion. Ensure proper gauge wiring is used if extensions were made. Check for any pinched or damaged wires. |
| Sequential turn signal not working | Green wire not connected to turn signal positive, incorrect polarity, faulty unit. | Double-check the connection of the green wire to the correct turn signal positive wire. Ensure the turn signal circuit is receiving power. |
| Lights stay on constantly | Incorrect wiring, short circuit. | Review wiring connections, especially the tail and brake light wires, to ensure they are not constantly receiving power when they shouldn't. |
