Step one would be to get to the wiring itself, that's going to require removing a couple of panels and loosening a couple. First thing to do is take out the trunk tray, the threshold and loosen the two side panels. Taking off that panel will allow us to get this panel loose here to get to the junction box inside.

Now that we have our panel is loosened you can see the junction box. It will use this port here and simply plug in. Once you've plugged it in, go ahead and ground it. There's a handy ground screw right here we'll just use that. Last step is to mount the box here and we'll just stick it behind this harness here, it has self adhesive.

Next we need to run the four flat wires all the way along the original harness and then we'll go inside here and install it into the jack compartment. Next we'll push the wire through here and pull it out through here, so we can store it there. All that remains now is put the panels back together and test the connections.

One final step is to put the fuse in the fuse holder right here for the accessories. It's marked in the instructions, its kind of hard to see but we'll go ahead and show you the best we can. It's usually the last open slot and then we'll test it.

The last step is to check our wire harness. First we'll try the running lights, then the turn signals and the brake lights. Once your finished, fold up the cable and hide it in the jack compartment. When it is needed simply take it out of the storage compartment, pull it out, and shut the door on it and it will be fine.

Is that normal in USA, that the wiring harness are going out the tailgate ?

@mope03 Every car is a little bit different, but as a general rule, no it is not unusual for the wiring harness to be there.

Thanks for posting this video.

Do I need a special tool for removing the inside trim? It looked like you used a fat, flat prying tool.

Also, what amp fuse do I use?
