LAMP
INSTALLATION
• The work site must be clean and level with enough working space to complete
the job without distractions.
• When mounting the lamps mount them in such a place that they are free of
obstructions. Do not mount the lamps in such a place that they will obstruct an
existing automotive function. Do not mount them in such a manner that they
have a chance of contacting the road or curbs.
• The PIAA 520 may be mounted upright or hanging down. It is very important
to make sure the "PIAA" that is molded into the lens reads right side up. If it will
not read right side up in its mounting location then the lens and reflector unit
will have to be removed and repositioned in the lamp so that "PIAA" will read
right side up. (See Lamp Service Section)
• When a mounting location is decided upon mount the lamp with the supplied
mounting hardware.
• When lamp is mounted make sure to leave 1/8" clearance around the lamp for
proper heat dissipation and to protect painted surfaces from heat damage.
