Why were The colonists were right to declare their independence?
If they hadn't the United States might be still an English colony. The men who wanted independence were the cream of the colonies. They were the most educated, wealthy, well read, richest people in the colonies. People like Jefferson had read the Enlightenment thinkers and the era of the monarchy was coming to an end.

Another way instead of the Boston Tea Party that colonists might have done to protest the Tea Act was not buying the British tea.

Maybe the British would lower the prices or make a compromise with the colonies.
Was the Declaration of Independence more important then the constitution?
The declaration of Independence was essentially the Continental Congress telling Britain they didn't want to be involved with them anymore. It's arguable that the Declaration of Independence was more important as it was the foundation for American independence and freedom, without which the Constitution wouldn't exist. However, the Declaration of Independence gave no system of government. Without the Constitution, the U.S. as we know it might not exist, or it might be very different, and quite possibly much worse.

How did the colonists react to the enlightenment?
Taxes. I might add that the taxes the colonists were paying were quite a bit lower than the total tax burden that American citizens shoulder today. In fact, hundreds of wars have been fought, and millions of men and women have died, fighting against taxes that were a heck of a lot lower than American citizens are paying right now. The US government appears to be willing to completely ignore the lessons of history. They do so at their own risk.
