You would not want to use part # 20250 to hardwire your vehicle, the wire leads are only 12 inches long as this part is intended as a replacement for a broken or damaged connector.
Instead I would suggest using part # 18252. The wire leads are 72 inches long, it includes 4 Scotch-Lock connectors and a circuit tester to help you find what wires you need to tap into.
The white wire is a ground wire and needs to be connected to another ground wire that attaches to the vehicle frame. The brown wire is for your taillights that are on when headlights are on. The yellow wire is for driver side blinker/brake signal. The green wire is for passenger blinker/brake signal.
We do not have vehicle specific instructions for the hardwire kits as they can fit virtually any vehicle. I will provide a link to a video of another vehicle being hardwired so that you can get the idea of the process.
