Inserting the Ballistic Door Panel
CONTINUED
9
Grip the nylon fold at the top of the ballistic
panel when the ballistic panel is inserted the
majority of the way into the door.
10
Slide the ballistic panel forward, toward the
front of the vehicle. The leading edge of
the anti-abrasion panel will likely catch on
the vehicle window track. Push the front,
top edge of the panel toward the vehicle
exterior, while sliding the ballistic panel
forward, to move the ballistic panel past
the window track.
NOTES:
Work the ballistic panel forward firmly
to clear any obstructions, but never
use excessive force. Excessive force
may damage internal door components
or puncture the ballistic door panel’s
weatherproof cover. It may be useful to
shimmy the ballistic panel side to side
while pushing forward to move it into
position.
If the ballistic panel does not clear the
airbag sensor, move to the inside of the
door to guide it forward of the sensor.
If the ballistic panel will not seat fully
forward, shift it backward and move the
door wiring harness to manually position
it into the notch in the panel.
11
Verify that the front, leading edge of the
nylon at the top of the ballistic panel is
positioned against the front, vertical edge
of the window frame.
12
Push the ballistic panel down into its final
location until the nylon fold at the top of
the ballistic panel folds over the horizontal
metal edge of the window frame. This
is the same edge that the outer window
weatherstrip sits on when properly
installed.
