Installing the MB-IDENT03 Message Board
To mount the MB-IDENT03 Message Board onto the Rear Window Guards:
1.
For installation purposes, determine the proper location on the Rear Window Guard by placing the
already assembled model on the Rear Window Guard grille surface to make sure the exit wires on
the model are not pinched or covered by any of the metal webbing on the window guard.
2.
Once the proper light position is located on the window guard, mark all four corner edges of the light
assembly with a pencil.
3.
Set the light assembly on a clean, flat surface and carefully remove all ten of the mounting screws
and set the screws aside.
4.
For the next two steps, have another person help to hold and align the assembly during the
placement of the light assembly and the re-fastening of the screws to mount the light assembly to the
window guard. The light assemblies will be on the outside surface of the window guards.
If window guard is already installed on the vehicle, make sure window is rolled down and both sides
of the window guard are easily accessible.
