2. Using the flat head screw driver, pry off the cap end of the center factory pin. 

3. Using the 10mm socket and ¼” ratchet, unbolt the (2) bolts from the top bracket, clean the surface after removal. 

4. Using the 13mm, universal joint and ¼” ratchet, remove the (1) bolt securing the bottom bracket, clean the surface after removal. 

5. Attach the new top bracket using the hardware provided. Tighten into position with the 4mm hex socket and 10mm socket.

6. Open the hood latch with the provided key and place rubber isolator onto the back plate. 

7. Position and align the bottom bracket. Pay close attention to the alignment tabs and the holes on the fender. Secure into position with the 13mm nut within the fender. Note: the outer side of the bolt is spot welded for easier installation and doesn’t need to be held while tightening.
