Preparing the
Bottom Mount
13.
With the nuts installed in the roof,
next we need to drill a hole to
access the lower captive nut in the
vehicle frame, which sits behind
the plastic trim. We’ve supplied a
template for this, but first ensure
that you check the scale on your
template as shown. Once confirmed,
cut the template out for each side.
14.
With the template cut out, position
it on the vehicle using tape or blue
tack as shown. Align the bottom
edge with the crease in the plastic,
and the top edge to the trim line on
the C-pillar. Ensure there is no air
gap in the middle of the template.
15.
Once the template is secured in
place, drill a hole so the 25mm
spacer can pass through. Align a
22mm hole saw tothe centre mark
and drill your hole. We recommend
removing the paper once you have
a pilot hole started.
16.
Repeat on the other side.
