CAUTION
When drilling into the vehicle wall, always
use a drill stop to help protect against dam-
aging any wiring that might be located be-
hind the wall.
Installation Hint
To help keep hoses, harness, and drain lines
secure and in the center of the hose covers,
3/16 inch holes can be drilled in the hose cover
backs. Insert Tie-Wraps through the holes be-
fore securing the hose cover backs to the wall
(See Figure 4--21).

the hoses and harness to the evaporator area.

cut-out.
Using a small piece of “Trim-Loc” or similar material
around the cut-out will help protect the hoses and
harness
from
chaffing
and/or
cutting.
