Product image checkpoints
- The matching product page identifies this as a direct-fit, plug-and-play style installation. Use the product images for lamp-shape comparison and confirm the connector locks before reinstalling trim.
- The visible product-function references indicate running/parking light, brake light, reverse light, sequential turn signal, startup animation checks for this product. Test each supported function before tightening the lamp and closing the access area.
- If the kit includes a decoder, resistor, control module, or relay, secure it away from heat, moving parts, water paths, and sharp metal edges. Do not add universal electrical parts unless support confirms they are needed.
- If the original vehicle has blind-spot hardware near the lamp area, handle the module and connector carefully and confirm there are no warnings after installation.
Product notes
- Use the product reference images on this page as the product-side visual check for connector layout, rear housing shape, and lighting functions.
- Original vehicle trim, clip style, and fastener locations can vary by year, trim, and previous repairs. Remove panels slowly and verify each fastener before pulling.
- Road-lighting compliance and off-road/show-use notes are product specific. Review the matching RIGNOX product page for the exact language for this item.
Before you begin
- Confirm the exact product: Compare the RIGNOX tail lights to the product reference images, including rear housing, plug layout, lens style, and included modules.
- Work powered down: Park on level ground, switch the vehicle off, and disconnect the negative battery terminal when handling wiring.
- Protect body panels: Use clean towels or masking tape near painted edges around the tailgate, trunk, hatch, bed-side access, or cargo trim area.
- Do not force clips: If a lamp or trim panel does not move, stop and look for another fastener or locating pin.
- No grease on connectors: Do not apply dielectric grease or weather-sealing grease to connectors or sockets.
Tools and supplies
- Trim removal tool or panel clip tool
- Metric socket and ratchet set; verify exact sizes on the vehicle before removal
- Phillips and flat screwdrivers

Remove the original tail lights
-
Remove the tail light mounting bolts: Lower the tailgate and remove the two mounting bolts located beside the tail light, above the tailgate latch and below the support cable.
-
Remove the factory tail light: Carefully pull the factory tail light assembly straight outward to release the two locating clips on the side.
-
Disconnect the factory wiring connectors: Disconnect the three wiring connectors from the back of the factory tail light. If the connectors are tight, use pliers carefully to assist with removal.
Install the RIGNOX tail lights
-
Connect the new LED tail light: Connect the factory vehicle wiring harness to the corresponding connectors on the back of the new LED tail light.
-
Install the new LED tail light: Align the two locating clips on the side of the new tail light with the mounting points, then push the assembly smoothly into the body opening.
-
Test all lighting functions: Turn on the rear lights and activate the turn signals to confirm that all lighting functions, including the sequential turn signals, operate and flash correctly.
- Tighten the mounting bolts and remove the protective film: Reinstall and tighten the two factory mounting bolts securely, then peel the protective plastic film off the surface of the new tail light.
Electrical and function test
- Confirm running/parking lights on both sides.
- Confirm brake lights with a helper pressing the brake pedal.
- Confirm left and right turn signals, hazards, and sequential behavior where supported.
- Confirm reverse lights with the vehicle safely in reverse and the parking brake applied.
- Confirm startup animation or RGB/app functions only after normal road-light functions pass.
- Check for dashboard warnings, hyperflash, flicker, or intermittent operation before reinstalling final trim.
Final check
- All connectors are locked, dry, and routed without tension.
- Included modules or extra harnesses are secured away from heat, water paths, moving parts, and sharp edges.
- Both tail lights sit flush with even body gaps and properly seated seals.
- All supported lighting functions pass on both sides.
- No warning lights, flicker, hyperflash, abnormal heat, moisture issue, or loose wiring remains after a short check drive.
Troubleshooting
- One lamp does not turn on: Recheck the main connector lock, related fuse, and battery connection.
- One function does not work: Compare the plug area to the product reference images and verify the connector is fully seated.
- Warning message, flicker, or hyperflash: Confirm the correct product variant was installed and that any included decoder, resistor, or relay is connected and secured.
- Moisture appears: Light condensation right after installation is normal and usually clears within about a week of regular driving as the lamp warms up. If water collects inside or the moisture doesn't clear, contact RIGNOX support.
Need help?
If the original lamp, vehicle connector, or included harness does not match the product reference images, stop before modifying wiring and contact RIGNOX support with your order number and your vehicle's year, model and trim. We'll walk you through it.
