help...Multipro Tailgate Light Accessory

[campinfamily]

Hey everyone, wondering if anyone can help.  I ordered the lights for the tailgate but says i need to contact my dealer for installation instructions.  Can anyone that has access to the GM Service Info (SI) pull them for me?

 

part #84347814

 

for a 2019 GMC Sierra 1500 LT- with off road package.  Short bed Crew cab

 

 

Thanks for any help!

It’s a pretty simple installation. Check my post here. Ignore the P/N difference. Instructions are attached at the bottom of the post if you’d rather not read my ramblings though I recommend it so you’ll be fully aware about disconnecting the existing harness plugged into the tailgate light. I was a bit surprised how much force it took to pull it off.

Hope this helps & good luck. Feel free to msg me if necessary.

Thanks!!  Your write up was more useful.  the instructions pics look upside down, or maybe they did this form inside the bed?  

 

love this site, and the truck!

No problem. Glad it helped. I never really paid much attention to the pictures during my installation (had help from another member here) but yeah, they appear to be from inside the bed with the tailgate down & from inside the bed. I noticed the P/N was also different on the instructions as well.

They're pretty self explanatory, once you pry out the plastic inserts the lights will clip right in, and there's no wrong way to hook up the wires.

Can you have lights and the kicker stereo system?

It appears that you can.  There are some rubber type plugs that are present where the lights should be.  I haven't ordered a kit, but I will.

Yes.  The kicker has two small rubber plugs you remove.  The LED light assemblies need to be removed from the "trays" that they come in with the kit, and the holes left by the rubber plugs are sized to hold the LEDs perfectly.

How did you wire the lights with the kicker? The connector with the lights is wrong to go with the kicker and GM outfitters says you have to make a choice one or the other.

I'm interested in this too. I thought the lights were standard with the Kicker system but nope.

Five minute job my butt. Covers pulled off and I got connections disconnected. Harness that came with kit doesn’t plug in. The harness in the tail gate has a center key and slot in each connector. The harness with kit has key and slot offset to one side. Is there a different harness adapter available?

You can have lights and the kicker. I have them both. Lights are a separate purchase from the kicker tailgate speakers however.

Light and Kicker, that would be cool.

I installed the lights about a year ago.

I used this video as a guide

Confirmed - I finally got around to installing the lights I ordered and they come with a harness that allows you to install the lights concurrently with the kicker soundbar. Took me a while to get around to doing it then of course took about 5 minutes to get it installed (minus the 15 minute fight to get the clip disconnected from the existing connection).
