TailGauge's Privacy Policy

Please note: TailGauge does not provide vehicle specific support for a variety of reasons. The primary one is that the variety of makes and models, including intra-model year changes that do occur, as well as the variety of trim packages that vehicle manufacturers produce make it difficult to provide this type of specific advice. However, all of our systems are designed to install easily in the average car, van, light truck, pickup, bus, etc.

In addition:
1. The variety of layouts of electrical systems, even within same vehicle models, means that any such advice could be inaccurate. We will provide general installation information to qualified technicians who are already familiar with the electrical systems of the vehicles they work on (although the information required is usually already found in the manual that comes with each of our kits.)

2. For many of the same reasons, we are unable to provide vehicle specific installation support for issues including; where to run the cables, how to remove the door/ceiling liners/carpeting, all due to the wide range of vehicles out there and the continual changes that auto manufacturers make in their vehicles.

We have found that the installation information in our manuals has usually been sufficient and helpful for most installations. Please be sure to read it before installing your kit. We believe that reading the manual first is part of a quality installation process.
