Slide the taillight assembly out and away from the bed of the truck. Grasp the lower bulb and pull it straight out of the assembly.

Push the new bulb into place. Align the taillight assembly in the mounting area. Insert the two mounting screws and tighten them with the screwdriver.

Repeat the process to change the bulb on the other side. Close the tailgate.

Loosen the coupler latch on the tongue of the tow dolly and place the coupler over the 2-inch ball of the hitch on the vehicle which will be towing the dolly. Push the towing dolly back and forth a bit to ensure the coupler is seated properly on the 2-inch ball.

Push down on the latch to close the coupler latch over the 2-inch ball and place the pin through the latch to securely lock the tow dolly onto the hitch. Pull up on the towing dolly to test if it is secured. If the coupler seems loose on the ball, adjust the coupler, using a wrench.

Connect the wiring plug of the tow dolly to the plug beside the hitch. If the wires do not have a plug, then connect the color coded wires of the dolly to the corresponding wires of the towing package. The yellow wire controls the left blinker, the green wire controls the right blinker, the brown wire controls the tail lights, the white wire is the ground and the red wire is for optional brakes on the dolly.

Attach the safety chains to hitch. Crisscross the chains, allowing slack in the chains for moving around corners.

Make two 1/32-inch holes in the gunwales for two side markers and two bow lights, using a portable drill. Drill a 3/32-inch hole where you want each of your marker lights to be. This will allow you to feed the cables under the gunwale.

Run conductor wire underneath the gunwale, Attach mounting clips to the gunwale at three-foot intervals. Place the wire in the mounting clips to secure it in place.

Place the wire along the port side under the gunwale. Feed the wires for the red bow light to the middle of the boat and the wires for the green bow light to the starboard side.

Back the vehicle up 20 feet and turn on the lights. Notice how the lights land in respect to the chalk crosses. The passenger side light should land dead center on its cross. The drivers side light should fall one inch to the right and one inch below the center point so that it will not shine into any oncoming traffic.

Locate the adjustment screws on your Lightforce light. The screws are located at the base of the light; one for controlling the vertical and one for the horizontal. Use a screwdriver to adjust the screws until the lights hit the desired mark.

Place the key into the ignition and turn on the vehicle, but dont let the engine turn over.

Find the diagnostic port under the steering wheel. This port will be the same size and shape as the connective end of your code scanner. Carefully plug the scanner into the diagnostic port, taking care not to force the plug in. If you force it, the pins inside could be damaged. The vehicles battery will power on the scanner.

Use the arrow keys on the scanners keypad to scroll through the menu options. Find the "delete" or "reset" option and select it. This will turn the SRS light off. Unplug the scanner and turn off the vehicle.

Pull the bulb out of the socket, and replace it with a new 168-type bulb. Reinstall the socket into the assembly, and reattach the four screws and push-pins to the splash shield. If the side marker light is still malfunctioning, there may be an issue with the fuse.

Open the hood and locate the under-hood fuse box on the drivers side of the vehicle. Remove the cover. On the underside of the cover is a list of where each fuse is located. Find the side marker lamp fuse, and check to see if it is still functioning. A fuse is blown if the metal inside is broken. If the fuse is blown, pull it out of the fuse box, and replace it with an identical fuse. Close the hood.
