Does anyone have any instructions, hopefully with pictures, of the installation of Euro tail lights? I'm taking mine out to sell and I don't remember which harness to remove, where the connection is, etc! Thanks.

I just installed some euro tail lights a couple of weeks ago and I do believe I installed the lower (amber) lights. Therefore, you should remove the harness connect to the amber lights.

remove the passenger side rear wheel, start taking connectors apart...you'll see what goes where once you get into it, remove the taillamps and work behind the rear end disconnecting everything, then carefully pull the harness out...it may bind on some edges, so watch what you are doing and go slowly. Don't forget to restore the little white wire under the dash...it is a real pita to do....I soldered mine in with a switch in case I ever went back to euros....after a couple years with halo leds the euros are looking good to me again...go figure!

Here are the installation instructions. Just reverse the process and dont forget to hook up the white wire.

Interesting - I'm looking at selling the amber Euros to install halo LED's. Did you have problems with the halos or just ready for a change?
