PLEASE READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS THOROUGHLY BEFORE STARTING INSTALLATION.

2. Place the trunk in the vehicle and center it making sure the tailgate will latch shut, and the seat will fold and tumble(if applicable).

3. Using a marker or pencil, mark (4) spots through the 3/8” mounting holes in the trunk.

WARNING!
Make sure that there is nothing under the vehicle that will be damaged by the drill bit when drilling.

IN MOST VEHICLES THERE IS A GAS TANK UNDERNEATH THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. THE GAS TANK MAY HAVE TO BE LOWERED TO INSTALL THE MOUNTING BOLTS. PLEASE CONSULT VEHICLE OWNERS MANUAL FOR INSTRUCTIONS ON LOWERING THE GAS TANK.

4. Remove the trunk. Cut the carpet at the (4) marked holes. Using a 3/8” drill bit, drill out the (4) marked spots in the floor.

5. It is recommended to use silicone sealant in any holes drilled in the vehicle to prevent rusting.

ATTENTION:

FREQUENT LUBRICATION IS NECESSARY ON THE LOCKING SYSTEM

The pushbutton lock contains an “O” ring seal to protect the interior from dust and water. If this mechanism is not lubricated regularly it will become difficult to operate and it may not return to its home position preventing the key from operating the lock. If this happens simply pull up on the pushbutton to manually bring it back to its home position. Lubricate the pushbutton with a light lubricant such as silicone spray. The pushbutton may have to be periodically disassembled and cleaned.​
