When assembling, please work by the sequence which is opposite with disassembling
sequence; if necessary, it will have assembling instruction.

For torsion spring is disassembled, trunk cover does not have any tension, at this time, when
opening and closing trunk cover, it is necessary to support it with hand to prevent trunk cover
from closing for other resistances.

Torsion spring I of trunk cover locates the upper end, and Torsion spring II of trunk cover
locates the lower end, so it is necessary to work from left side to right side when assembling;
but it is necessary to work by opposite sequence when disassembling.
