Overview:

Our Bushdoof BD4 Lights are designed for straightforward installation, featuring multi-piece controllers, robust brackets, and seamless wiring compatibility. Follow this guide to install and configure your setup.

What you'll need:

  • Allen key (provided)
  • Spanner (provided)
  • Nutsert Kit (if required)
  • Electrical tape
  • Zip ties
  • Multimeter (optional)
  • Vehicle manual (for reference)

 

Step 1: Install Mounting Brackets

  • Attach the mounting brackets to each BD4 Light using the provided nuts and bolts.
  • Drop the nut into the back of the light — it will self-locate and grip.
  • Use the included allen key and spanner to tighten the brackets firmly.

 

Step 2: Mount the BD4 Lights to Your Vehicle

  • Secure each light using the supplied nut and bolt kit.
  • If you plan on tackling extreme conditions, consider adding larger washers for reinforcement.

    pro tip: Use a Nutsert for flexible mounting options

 

Step 3: Install the Controller

  • Mount the BD4 controller in a secure location, out of direct weather.
  • Ensure wiring is not rubbing on sharp edges.
  • Utilize the multi-piece controller design for easy routing and assembly.

 

Step 4: Wiring Connections

  • Connect the controller’s Positive (red) and Negative (black) wires to a 12V supply (battery, switch panel, or via a switch).
  • Ensure 12V supply is fused.
  • Secure all wiring with zip ties, keeping clear of heat and moving parts.
  • Wire in the function wires if required via the wiring diagram below.
  • To achieve an Amber/Yellow safety light connect both Turn Signal wires together and connect via switch or safety trigger (+)

 

Step 5: Connect & Configure

  • Plug in all connectors and confirm functionality.
  • Use the included remote to turn the controller on/off, control strobe modes and use the spot light feature.
  • Download the app below to control RGB halo features and sync with other Bushdoof lights.
