Yes you need a light. You probably also need to jump the gray timing
connector before setting the timing. That used to be behind the passenger
kick panel. Don't know if they moved it in later models.

Yor crank pulley has a group of three notches in its rim. The timing mark
on the timing belt cover should be in the middle of those three marks with
the timing light strobing on it.
