INSTALLATION<br />
NOTE:<br />
• Be careful not to damage the body paint finish.<br />
• This body side moldings kit should be installed only if<br />
the ambient air temperature is above 15°C (60°F).<br />
• To allow the adhesive to cure, do not wash the vehicle<br />
for 24 hours.<br />
• These installation instructions show the left body side<br />
moldings being installed. The same procedure applies<br />
to the right body side moldings.<br />
• If you are also installing door edge guards (sold<br />
separately), install them before you install the body<br />
side moldings.<br />
