How to Install: 2020+ Polaris RZR LED Chase/Reverse Light Kit

The Stage Series LED Reverse Light Kit features a powerful cool white main beam, delivering increased light output for improved nighttime visibility while reversing. It also has an integrated backlight in a vibrant red color which functions as an additional accent light while driving!

Mounting Instructions

Step 1 - Remove the Driver Seat Adjustment Buckles.

Begin removing the driver seat by undoing both of the adjustment buckles with the red pull tabs. 

Step 2 - Disconnect Connector Under Cup Holders.

Use a plastic trim removal tool to pry up the front of the plastic cup holder and pop it out of place. Once removed, set the cup holder aside.

Looking down into the area where the cup holder was, locate the connector with blue tabs (circled in red). Reach in and disconnect it. Then feed the end that attaches to the safety harness out from under the center console and towards the driver seat. 

Step 3 - Remove Driver-Seat Safety Harness.

Feed the safety harness through the back of the driver's seat.

Step 4 - Remove the Driver's Seat.

Remove the driver's seat by pulling the release handle (circled in red) and tilting the seat forward, up, and out of the vehicle.

Step 5 - Connect Battery. 

Use a 10mm socket to connect the red wire from our harness to the positive battery terminal and the black wire to the negative battery terminal. Then tuck the relay next to the battery so it is out of the way.

Step 6 - Remove Center Console Bolts.

With a 10mm socket, remove the four bolts (circled in red) along the bottom of the driver's side of the center console. 

Step 7 - Remove Driver-Side Kick Panel Bolts and Clips. 

With a 10mm socket, remove the two 10mm bolts (circled in red) on the bottom of the driver-side kick panel. 

Then use a plastic trim removal tool to remove the two clips (circled in blue).

Step 8 - Remove Shifter Trim Bolt. 

Lift up the rubber shift cover and use a T40 Torx bit to remove the bolt circled in red below. Then remove the shifter trim. 

Step 9 - Route the White Connector Lead.

With the switch disconnected from the wiring harness, route the white connector lead from the battery under the center console into the cup holder area. Then continue routing the connector down and around the shifter and toward the fire wall. 

Note: Be sure to route the connector around the shifting bracket, not through it. 

Then continue routing the lead towards the firewall and out of the hole (circled in red) at the back of the passenger side kick panel. 

Step 10 - Remove Switch Blank.

To mount the switch, use a pick tool to pop out one of the factory switch blank covers.

If you're going to use the included round toggle switch, use a pair of flush-cut pliers to trim the key slot off of the switch as shown below. 

Then use the step bit to drill a hole in the switch blank cover to about 20.5mm, or until the toggle switch fits snuggly. 

Feed the white lead of the switch through the drilled hole on the front of the switch blank. Then press the switch into place, making sure the double lines on the switch are on the top half of the switch blank cover. 

Step 11 - Connect and Mount Switch.

Route the switch lead from Step 9 through the back of the switch panel where the switch blank was removed. Then connect the lead to the switch and press the switch into place.

Step 12 - Route DT Leads.

From the battery, route the DT leads under the plastic coverings and up the driver's side B-Pillar towards the roof of the vehicle.

Once your DT leads reach the roof, route one straight back and the other across and to the rear passenger side. Then secure the DT leads in place using zip ties. 

Step 13 - Bolt Roll Bar Mounts to Rear Cage.

On the driver's side, slide the ring of the roll bar mount over the cage bar near where the cage and rear of the roof meet. Then align the platform with the ring and fasten them down with the supplied long 3/16" Allen bolt, washers, and nut. 

Step 14 - Mount L Bracket.

Then secure the roll bar L bracket to our roll bar mount with the other supplied 3/16" Allen bolt and washer. Use the bubble level and make sure that the L bracket is level.  Then tighten the bracket down using a 3/16" Allen and a 10mm socket. 

Step 15 - Mount SSC2 Bracket.

Bolt the SSC2 universal bracket to the L bracket using the supplied carriage bolt, washer, lock washer, and nut. Be sure to only hand tighten at this point. 

Step 16 - Mount SSC2 LED Pod.

Bolt the SSC2 LED Pod to the universal bracket with the supplied 5/32" Allen bolt and nut. Again, be sure to only hand-tighten the hardware at this point to leave room for adjustment later. 

Step 17 - Mount Passenger Side SSC2 LED Pod.

Repeat Steps 13-16 on the rear passenger side of the vehicle to install the remaining SSC2 LED Pod. 

Step 18 - Connect DT Leads to SSC2 LED Pods. 

Plug the DT leads that were routed in Step 12 into the back of the installed SSC2 LED Pods. Then test the function of the lights.

Step 19 - Aim SSC2 LED Pods. 

Make horizontal aiming adjustments by rotating the SSC2 LED Pods left or right. Then tighten them down using a 13mm wrench. 

Make vertical aiming adjustments by tilting the pods up and down. Then tighten them using a 5/32" Allen and 3/8" wrench. 

Step 20 - Reassmble the RZR.

Reassemble the RZR by reversing the steps used to take it apart. Make sure to zip-tie any loose wiring to keep it away from hot or moving parts.
