4.
Insert the mounting strap through the mounting foot as shown in Fig 1. Be sure that the strap fits flush against
the gutter area where it will be secured onto the vehicle. Insert the Tension bolt through the mounting strap
and into the tinerman nut on the actuator plate. Tighten slightly with a long shafted, Phillips screwdriver.
Repeat procedure for the passenger side.
5.
If your mounting strap has mounting holes in the gutter end of the strap, use these holes as a template to drill
two, appropriately sized pilot holes through the strap and into the vehicle. Repeat for passenger side of the
vehicle.
6.
Insert the supplied mounting screws into these holes and tighten firmly. Repeat for passenger side of the
vehicle.
7.
Firmly tighten the tension bolts to secure the Edge 10000 to the vehicle.
Wiring the Edge 10000...
1.
Before wiring the Edge 10000, the following
drivers side
interior components must be removed:
a) Front and rear sill plates.
b) Front and rear door weatherstrips.
c)
Front kick panel.
d) B-pillar trim panels (upper and lower).
Note: To remove the upper B-pillar trim panel, the upper seat belt guide must be removed.
e) Rear seat cushion and rear seat back.
f)
The drivers side rear quarter trim panel (This is only necessary for Crown Victoria installations, as this
panel houses the factory wiring harness).
g) Quarter roof trim panel.
h) Coat hook.
2.
To protect the headliner from damage caused by drilling the cable access hole through the vehicle roof, allow
a 5” to 7” distance between the roof and the headliner by lowering the headliner before drilling.
3.
Refer to Fig. 3 to help determine a
drilling location.
4.
Using a 1” hole saw, drill the cable
access hole in this location.
Note: There is a roof support member
that spans the distance
between the driver’s and
passenger’s side. DO NOT
DRILL THROUGH THIS
MEMBER! Adjust the location
until the hole can be drilled
without contacting this support
member.
5.
Use a round file to smooth and de-burr the edges of the hole.
6.
Insert a 1” grommet (user supplied) into the cable access hole.
7.
Insert both cables (communication and power) through the cable access hole into the vehicle. Use RTV
silicone to weatherproof the access hole after the cables are pulled completely into the vehicle.
8.
Route the cables (one at a time) down through the B-pillar. The cables must make a 90° turn to enter the B-
pillar. Although routing the cables in this manner may be difficult, this has been determined to be the best
procedure. It is up to the installation technicians discretion whether to route the cables as recommended or
use an alternative route. Pull the full length of the cable out of the hole at the base of the B-pillar (Fig. 4).
9.
Remove the 3 screws from the wiring shield that is located under the sill plate locations. Be sure to only
remove the screws that secure the wiring shield lid and NOT the screws that secure the wiring shield to the
vehicle.
