Installation of these tail lights is designed to be a direct replacement for your factory lights. No assembly of the tail light unit itself is required. However, professional installation is recommended to ensure proper wiring and functionality.
General Installation Steps:
- Preparation: Ensure your vehicle is turned off and the parking brake is engaged. Disconnect the negative terminal of the vehicle's battery to prevent electrical shorts.

- Secure: Position the new VLAND LED Tail Light assembly into the vehicle's tail light opening. Secure it with the factory retaining screws or clips.
- Test: Reconnect the vehicle's battery. Test all light functions (DRL, brake, reverse, turn signals) before fully reassembling any interior panels.
- Final Assembly: Reinstall any removed interior panels or trim pieces.
