Remove the Interior Protective Coverings
There are several protective coverings on the interior trim pieces and some areas of the carpet. Carefully remove all of
them with clean hands to avoid soiling any surfaces. If any of the interior is dirty, clean it with mild soap or an Acura
cleaning product such as Leather & Vinyl Cleaner (P/N 08700-9214A) or Carpet Spot Remover (P/N 08700-9215A).
When removing the outboard plastic front door sill coverings, slowly pull the plastic
ou
t from the sill, and
not up
.
When removing the inboard plastic coverings, use a trim tool to gently remove the plastic sill piece, leaving the ACURA
sill plate intact. After removing that piece, carefully remove the plastic, making sure you do not damage any clips. Once
you have fully removed the plastic, gently snap the piece back into place and pull the blue tape from the silver sill plate.
If there is any remaining residue from the adhesive tape, gently remove it with a clean shop towel and some adhesive
remover.
