Inserting the Ballistic Door Panel

1

  Adjust the window height to 7.5”.

2

  Turn off the ignition switch and remove the 

key.

3

   

Disconnect the vehicle battery to avoid  

 

accidental airbag deployment.  

4

 Lift up on the outer window weatherstrip to 

remove it from the door.

Use caution when removing parts that may 
have sharp edges, such as the outer window 
weatherstrip.

5

  Bend the bottom of the ballistic panel 

away from you, pressing with your knee 
or hand. This creates a slight curve in the 
ballistic panel that matches the shape of the 
bottom of the Chevy Tahoe door and eases 
installation. 

NOTE:

 Do not bend the ballistic door panel 

tighter than a 6” radius (12” diameter).

6

 Hold the ballistic door panel so that its 

anti-abrasion panel faces the interior of the 
vehicle.

7

  Leading with the bottom edge of the ballistic 

door panel, begin to insert the panel into the 
door, adjacent to the outer surface of the 
window glass.

NOTE:

 Hold the ballistic door panel against 

the window glass as you insert to avoid 
obstructions inside the door. This can be 
achieved by lightly leaning back/pulling the 
panel out toward the exterior of the door.

8

 Slide the ballistic panel down into the door, 

following the edge of the window frame.
