taillight bell-type connectors first, through the
openings in the frame cross members, starting at
the large hole at the right front corner of the frame.
Insert two of the rubber grommets into their
positions in the cross member frame holes. The
grommets are split so that they will slip over the
cables. Slip the harness clips over the harness cables
and fasten the clips to the frame with the screws,
lockwashers, and hex nuts. Fasten the taillight
cables to the harness by coupling the connectors
and twisting them to the locked position. In
fastening the connectors make sure that the ter-
minal connector grommet is position so that it
just covers the terminal shoulder. This position is
illustrated in figure 4-8.
