2f. Lift the panel slightly and place it onto the hinge so that the bolts  go through the holes in the 

panel. Note that most of the panel holes are slotted but the ones in the middle are round.  It 
therefore helps to start placing bolts in the middle at the round holes.   

 

 

Note-  If the panel is a rear or middle panel, the panel will extend beyond the hinge on the side  

with two slotted holes that are close together as illustrated below. 

 

 

 

 
2g. Take two backing strips and align their holes with the bolts. Place the strip over the bolts, and 

push it flush against the panel. There will be a gap between strips in the middle of the panel.
