* Notes to Installation:

* Think through the installation to determine piece position.

* The item may show some packing mark(s) when removed from the package. DO

NOT BECOME ALARMED, as they will disappear with the warm air in the vehicle.

All auto manufacturers apply silicon to various interior components to forestall cracking

from cold and heat. The silicon base must be removed for tape backed product adher-

ence.

In vehicle production, manufacturers allow different tolerances for various components.

Though the make and model of any two vehicles may be the same, assembled compo-

nent tolerance may vary. Vehicle components can often be moved/ adjusted if required

to obtain a perfect fit.

If installation is to be over existing OEM wood dash, we recommended painting the

already installed factory wood dash piece (s) prior to the new installation. Carefully

mask area and paint a thin coat with a semi - gloss or flat lacquer black paint per

manufacturer instruction.

* WARNING

IF HEAT SOURCE IS USED FOR INSTALLATION, DO NOT OVER HEAT. Over heat-

ing may cause cracking and the temperature should not exceed that which would be

uncomfortable to facial skin (100 to 110 degrees f.) Heat should be applied to both the

front and back surface of the item.

Never bend apiece back and fort as this will wrinkle finish.

Never try to bend a dash piece without heating it first - severe damage may occur.

Never attempt to bend hardboard product.
