Once the boot lid is properly placed, you may fit the lock. It is vital that the lock and catch are properly aligned otherwise the lock cannot do its job.
First drill, then vile the dented square in the bootlid to the proper size.
Drill the three holes required for the lock. Use the rubber supplied with the lock as a template. In this case the indentions in the bootlid are not 100% accurate.
Fit the lock in the boot lid, using three M5x12 Allen bolts.
Fit the catch in the boot. Again, the relevant holes are indicated by the indentations in the gel coat. All you need to do is to drill the 5.5 millimetres holes. The oblong holes in the catch will allow you to adjust it. Do not tighten the bolts until you have aligned the lock and catch to your satisfaction.
While the catch is on the inside of the body, the number plate lamp bracket sits on the outside.
Mark the hole for the feed wire for the number plate lamp and keep in mind as where the number plate should go. Drill the hole and guide the number plate lamp feed wire through it. Make the hole water tight by either using a grommet or by applying some SikaFlex 260 to the opening.
When you are happy with the lock and catch position, you should tighten the two upper bolts. Next, you should fit the number plate lamp to the bracket. The two lower bolts of the catch will also be used to fit the number plate lamp bracket
Dutch legislation requires the number plate lamp to be fitted to the bottom of the number plate.
Make sure you know and obey to the rules that apply to your situation.
Be aware that one of the two lower bolts needs to function as the mass/ground point for the electricity. See chapter 6 for details. |
