1. Operate the top using the "ROOF" switch until it is halfway raised and the Tonneau cover is fully upright. All windows should be lowered. See Figure 4.A.

2. Remove the existing side trim molding by pulling it upwards.

The clip at the trailing end should remain in place on the metal flange. If the metal extended section is loose it should be scrapped.

NOTE:
If protective tape/foam is not fitted on the vertical sheet metal edge under old molding, fit a 3/4" piece of duct tape to protect the sheet metal surfaces when lining the new molding.

3. Fit the new trim molding in place with new clips. The locating guide at the trailing edge should be fitted in the Tonneau cover seal.
