Title: Corner Guards
Post by: Danny on July 29, 2006, 06:06:28 PM

I am looking to install some corner guards but after alot of effort I am not sure how to put them on...They came with the Jeep when I bought it but I just haven't gotten around to putting them on.  My main problem is with the rear lights...does anyone have insight for me?

Who made them?  Most if not all require you to take teh rear light off then bolt it back on.

I don't know who made them...but do you know how to remove the rear light, the rest seems pretty simple...if you want I can take a picture of them, but not sure how that might help, lol.

Take the 4 screws out that hold the lense cover on, then you'll find 3 bolts inside the housing that attaches it to the body ... take those out and then just unplug the wiring harness. When you get ready to put the housing back on you'll probably need longer bolts depending on the thickness of your corners

How in the world are you supposed to remove the "wiring harness"?  It doesn't just simply unplug...any help would be greatly appreciated...

They just unplug from the harness.  I forget if there is a clip holding them together.  I think the tab is on one side. (opposide side of picture.)

whoa...I must be looking at the wrong part then...is it on the actually tail light, or somewhere else?

The tail lights should have a wire harness coming out of the back like these.

The plug would be attached to the end about 10" from the light.
