to hold the glass portion, use
and hold with a clean dry cloth
to avoid getting moisture and
oils on the bulb. Also, if the bulb
is scratched or dropped, it may
blow out or crack.
●Fully install light bulbs and any
parts used to secure them. Fail-
ure to do so may result in heat
damage, fire, or water entering
the light unit. This may damage
the lights or cause condensa-

lights
●Stop the engine and wait until
the exhaust pi pes and sur-
rounding parts have cooled
down sufficiently. The lights are
located near the exhaust pipe
