Backbone & Aluminium Roof Platform Instructions
1.
Please see ‘special cars’ list below for any extra notes specific to your car.
2.
Access behind roof lining by pulling down door trim rubber. You may have to uninstall grab
handles and/or sun visors to give sufficient access into roof lining. You only need about 1
hand’s depth up to where the black rubber roof moulding would be.
3.
Check under the roof (where drilling will take place) for obstructions such as grab handle
mounts, airbags or centre light wires.
4.
Assemble (2) backbone bracket with (3) triangle base brackets loosely attached using the
(4,6,7,8) M8*30 Allen Head bolt and nuts.
5.
Using the assembled backbone bracket, find a suitable spot clear of obstructions for drilling.
Make sure to check for windscreen overhang and antenna position.
6.
Mark holes and drill 2x M6 holes using the (3) triangle base bracket as a template.
7.
Vacuum out drill shavings.
8.
Apply some paint or anti-rust to exposed metal surface.
9.
Squeeze Sikaflex 227 on and around drilled holes.
10.
Disassemble backbone bracket and install lower triangle brackets. Pushing the (9,11,12)
M6*30 bolt through the layer of Sikaflex will help spread it around the hole and saturate the
thread of the bolt. This will prevent water leaks. The (10) M6 flange nuts go on the inside of
the car roof lining. No washers are used as the flange nut must bite into metal to secure
tightly.
11.
Reassemble backbone bracket using (4,6,7,8) M8 Allen Head bolt and nuts.
12.
Using (5,6) M8 carriage bolts and nuts, loosely screw on the backbone onto the triangle base
brackets (3).
13.
Slide the provided m8 hex bolts (with 12mm head) into the channel on the roof basket.
14.
Rest roof tray/basket on backbone and line up the previously installed M8 hex bolts (with
12mm head) with the holes in the backbone.
15.
Using the provided serrated flange nuts, bolt on the roof platform to the backbone.
16.
Tighten the rest of the
17.
Install using (5,6) M8 carriage bolts and nuts.

-
Use factory mounting holes hidden under black rubber roof
moulding
-
1x M8 bolt per triangle base bracket (separately packaged)

Drilling an M8 sized hole in the rubber trim allows for cleaner
install (the way we recommend). Make sure to cut out thin
aluminium piece running inside trim to allow for a clean hole
to be drilled
-
Use the 2 closer holes on the backbone bracket as they are
