Tools generally needed to install Ford Bronco Tail Lights

- Painters tape to prevent scratches to your Ford Bronco
- (Rare) Torque wrenches, etc.
Ford Bronco Tail Light installation procedure
- Inspect the new set of Ford Bronco tail lights to make sure you can complete the installation with the tools you have available.
- Disconnect your Ford Bronco battery's negative battery terminal. If your stereo requires a key in order to reboot, please be sure you have it before disconnecting the battery. Also, be aware that you will probably have to reset your clocks, etc. after reconnecting the battery later. Please note that some vehicles (such as newer GMs) have extremely sensitive electrical systems. In these cases failure to disconnect the battery before attempting installation may lead to blown taillamp fuses or other damage.
- Apply painters tape on your Ford Bronco around the edges of your Bronco's taillights to prevent any scratches that might occur while removing and installing taillamps. If uninstalling your Ford Bronco rear bumper is required, make sure you have a safe surface to place the Bronco bumper on and that the working surface below the vehicle is also safe in the event the bumper falls down. This step is particularly important because tail lens, unlike headlights, often require a little force to come loose, leaving many people to inadvertently scratch their Ford Bronco in the process.
- Without touching the glass, uninstall the stock brake, signal and reverse bulbs (as applicable). For bulbs with flat rectangle harnesses, you just pull the bulb firmly outward. For bulbs with round bases, you usually just push them in a bit, and then turn a quarter turn to release them. Once the bulb is removed, place them in their original container (if available). If they are cold, you could also store them in a ziplock type of bag. Please note that if your Ford Bronco tail lamps have a harness that can be separated via a main harness that leaves part of the harness with the bulbs inside the Bronco tail lights, you will still need both parts of the harness since the aftermarket Ford Bronco tail lights are designed to either re-use the stock bulbs (altezzas) or to connect directly into the bulb harnesses (LED taillights).
- Unscrew the Ford Bronco taillamps from the front or use a socket wrench to undo the Bronco tail lamps from the back. Be aware that the old Ford Bronco tail lights might fall immediately once the tension of the bolts is removed. For this reason, it is best to lightly hold the lights in place with your free hand as you unbolt or unscrew them.
- Remove the old Ford Bronco taillens and store in a way that the lens will not be scratched. Install the new Ford Bronco tail lens and bolt / screw in place.
- Ford Bronco Altezza Tail Lights: Reinstall the old bulbs into the new Bronco taillights. Be aware some Bronco tail lights might make use of a conversion harness that connects into one of your stock harnesses and splits the function into two separate bulbs. In these cases, the new bulbs should be included.
- Reconnect your Ford Bronco battery and turn on your Ford Bronco taillamps and check for proper operation and blinking speed. If any functions are not operational, try flipping the plugs the reverse orientation and double checking that the resistor boxes are fully connected.
- Reconnect all connections and tighten all bolts in place.

Are these Ford Bronco tail lights street legal?
As far as we know the Sonar (aka Spyder) and KS (Anzo) brand tail lights on our website are all street legal as mandated by federal law in the United States. This basically means that they are designed to the specifications set forth by the DOT (United States Department of Transportation). Occasionally, DOT might test models for compliance. If any Ford Bronco taillights fail (rare) DOT will have the companies issue a recall. For those tail lens, you can return them to us for a refund. For any other brands besides Sonar (aka Spyder) and KS (aka Anzo), we can not guarantee DOT compliance. Also, please be advised that your local laws that may disallow these sorts of taillights to be used.
How can I prevent my Ford Bronco tail lights from fogging up?
During the first few days of operation, it is normal to see some moisture appear in your Ford Bronco tail lens. This is due to the small amounts of moisture in the plastic and coating that are evaporated when the tail lens are first warmed up during use. This sort of moisture is normal and should disappear within a few days.
To be sure that no external moisture gets into the new Ford Bronco tail lens though, it is a prudent idea to silicone seal the edges. Clear silicone sealant can be found in any hardware store (and some auto part stores), and can be applied to the seam along the Bronco taillights where the clear lens meets the rear housing. Also, even if a bulb has died, make sure to keep it installed in the Bronco tail lamp until you replace it to prevent moisture from entering through the bulb hole.
Can I smoke my Ford Bronco tail lights?
While smoking your Ford Bronco taillights (tinting them) is certainly possible through the use of carefully applied spray tint (use light even coats), doing so may make them too dark to be legal. Please check your local laws as well as smoked Ford Bronco taillights of any darkness might be illegal in your area.
