Installed the same on mine.
Take your time and route the wires properly.
Ensure you have good grounds.
Trick is to take your time,
Black wire ties work great, I used mostly the black waxed string used on aircraft to hold and bundle the wiring, but the plastic wire ties are fine.
I came down the driver side to the rear, then crossed over to the other tail light.
I did the same for the front, running the wires below the radiator and then along the bumper bracket to the bumper.
Leave extra at the button box inside the car and trim that down to fit right, once ALL the other routing is done, (don't want to be short there)
I did not know that the signals "chirped" when activated, so that was a pleasant surprise.
Enjoy them, they are nice and bright...people WILL see you.
I spent most of one day installing...(it's not a race)

They are a brand of turn signals. These have a small box with two buttons, one for each direction. Pressing both at the same time provides Emergency flashers. I believe they are LED so very bright. The same kit works for either 6V or 12V. I have them on 3 A's and installed a set for a friend. Once you do the first one it's a piece of cake from then on.

I picked up a couple of these lights at a truck stop recently. I just grabbed this one to shoot a quick photo with though. I have both red and amber lights. I'll have to make a mounting plate for them to lock them onto the bumper, but it looks fairly straight forward to do. I tried to place them vertically to see what they may look like in that position, but they stick out above and below the bumper too far to make that look good enough to suit me. Not sure how long they may last, but I may try them out and see.

Hi Brian,
Not necessary ..... but:
1. First try running exposed, tied Logo wires along front bumper brackets with Logo wire insulation exposed.
2. Next try running same Logo wires concealed in black Model A parts supplier's wire loom.
3. Maybe just me, but Logo wires in loom appears to resemble that this wiring maybe came with the car as opposed to looking like an "add-on" item.
4. I also installed a small Wal-Mart, trailer type side light, (with a separate switch), both concealed behind my dash, and above the Logo box to "see" the Logo box in the dark and to see it on overcast days. Appears to help to see which button, (L or R), to press when in a hurry on dark days.
5. Notice where Logo recommends to connect to power which is going to the Logo switch box.
